I’m the owner of ( ). I have experience with human performance, fascial stretch therapy, breathing therapy, and applied neuroscience. I believe in a comprehensive approach to human performance and physical therapy. It works because it creates effective change. I consider myself a forever learner. This has been fueled by my understanding of how our bodies interact with our environment, which is a huge factor in health, performance and well-being. I know that the mind, body, and spirit are all connected. And all systems in our body interact and influence each other. My hunger for knowledge and my fascination with human performance led me to get my Masters of Science in Applied Neuroscience at Kings College in London, attend The Postural Restoration Institute, get certified in Fascial Stretch Therapy, and become an ACSM certified personal trainer. I’m also the co-founder of New York Stretch Therapy. I work as a Fascial Stretch Therapist at Golf and Body NYC. I’m also a personal trainer at Physical Equilibrium. I’m an athletic nerd who loves work and play. I have a tremendous passion to help people try to reach their full potential. Because of this and my curiosity, I have traveled all over the world and had the great privilege to work with a wide variety of clients. In working with so many people I’ve learned about how our body, specifically the nervous system, interacts with our internal and external environment. This is a huge factor in health, performance, and well-being. The mind, body, and spirit are all connected. All systems in our body interact and influence one another. My program and coaching have helped hundreds of athletes and CEOs reach their full potential. https://brain-fitness-newyork.com/home daily 1.0 2024-03-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f32bc84cbbaca233e53d925/1598751111128-AJV0EWT37UMQCZEPB7GR/pexels-marius-venter-1659437.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f32bc84cbbaca233e53d925/1598751194240-16Z5W5TKP55RNZ0TQ57P/josh-riemer-OH5BRdggi2w-unsplash.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f32bc84cbbaca233e53d925/1598750739774-SH2YXERT10VC6XSWYD3R/pexels-pixabay-414029.jpg https://brain-fitness-newyork.com/book-a-class daily 0.75 2023-04-16 https://brain-fitness-newyork.com/services daily 0.75 2024-06-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f32bc84cbbaca233e53d925/1597967554354-RLDJGYGXPHLWOF8M21MC/pexels-pixabay-414029.jpg Services - Movement Our movement training plans are designed to get your body feeling good and performing well.
