Holistic personal training & Nutrition & lifestyle design
Location: at my Portland studio, Portland PACE or online
Welcome! I’ve spent close to 20 years supporting my clients as a holistic fitness trainer, nutrition and lifestyle coach and energy healer specializing in rapid, sustainable change through corrective exercise, metabolic nutrition and energetic alignment.
I hold a BS in exercise science from GA State University and I’m a certified CHEK (Corrective Holistic Exercise Kinesiologist) Practitioner and Holistic Nutrition & Life coach.
I help athletes, at any level and at any age, who want to move past old injuries and perform optimally so they can experience longevity and a higher quality of life.
I specialize in…
Body transformation
Post injury rehab integration (from right after physical therapy to years after)
Sports performance (from the novice exerciser to the advanced athlete)
Nutrition and lifestyle design (metabolic nutrition & recovery)
Mindset Coaching
“I’ve been working with Allison for over a year now and in that time I’ve gained a level of whole body strength and endurance I never thought I’d reach.
My range of motion in my shoulders, upper back, and hips has improved immensely. I contribute so much of my success to the guidance and training given by Allison.
I love how each week we re-access where I am in the process and what my body needs as well as how I can improve.
Allison has it all figured out and guides me carefully and gently through her 1:1 coaching program.I recently hiked the Timberline Trail - 38 miles in three days.
My body was tired but physically I was fine and recovered better than ever. I wasn’t even sore the next day.
I know I would not have been able to do this a year ago. Looking forward to many more adventures thanks to my training with Allison!”
How my injuries inspired my training
As a competitive gymnast from the age of five to twenty one, I endured many injuries. They consisted of reconstructive knee surgery, multiple broken toes, three ankle surgeries, multiple stress fractures in my feet and a stress fracture in my lower back.
Later in life I experienced severe back pain and debilitating spasms after the birth of my two sons. This lead me to study many different types of healing modalities in an effort to heal myself. Over the years, I’ve been able to recover and unwind many of these old injuries and as a result I feel better in my body than I did in my twenties.
Many of my clients are pleasantly surprised to experience these results too! Moving better, feeling energetic, feeling optimistic, feeling younger, a sense of accomplishment, experiencing a higher level of physical performance and a healthy high quality of life.
