About Cassie

As an athlete and performer, I have gone through many stages of connection (and disconnection) with my body over the years. There have been periods of time when I have more or less stopped working out due to injury, illness, and mental health struggles. Each time I have come back to exercise as a way to maintain a healthy body and mind, a way to connect with myself and feel like I’ve accomplished something. The journey isn’t always linear, but it’s a practice that means coming back to discovering who I am and what my goals are. As a new mom I have really had to learn how to let go of control and ride the waves up and down. I continue to learn more about myself year after year as I grow older and cannot move in the same ways that I used to when I was a top level gymnast. I’m learning to accept all of those parts of myself, to love where I’m at, and to thank my body for all of the ways it has carried me through life. I’m learning how to adjust my exercise to meet the needs of my body as it changes so that I can feel vibrant, healthy, and strong.

My approach to personal training is to gain a clear understanding of what each person’s fitness and physical goals are, and then to take small steps towards achieving them.  It’s not an overnight process.  It takes time to assess what muscles need to be built up, and then carefully construct the framework to do that in a safe way for each individual body.  I care about the longevity of your health.  For me, it’s not about achieving the goals as fast as possible, but instead, crafting a routine in such away that your goals end up falling into place.

I want to give people an opportunity to try something new, something they think they could never do, or something they’ve always wanted to try but didn’t know how to start.  I want to give people a unique workout that is fun, engaging, and allows them to move at their own pace.  I want people to be able to move in their bare feet, feeling the ground underneath them and training all those small individual muscles in their feet.  I’ve been training barefoot my whole life, and because of it, I think I have a particularly special relationship to exercise, feeling my body, and grounding myself.  I want to provide this for others, and teach them how to properly align themselves as they exercise.
