Movement Coaching - What Is It?

9/13/2017

Let's face it - everyone is too sedentary these days. It's as if we've reversed the evolution of man, we’re getting slower and more hunched over than our early-20th-century counterparts. You know you need to move more, but how? That’s where movement coaching comes in.

Do you spend more than half of your waking hours sitting without much movement?  Want to learn how to add more movement and physical activity to your daily life? Not sure how to eliminate the “convenience setup” at your desk? I created The Move More Institute™ to address these issues. Please read on to learn more!

Movement Coaching At Home: How do I change my behaviour?

Picture
You're retired and you've being told that you need to sit less and move more. [Note: seniors are the fastest growing demographic on Facebook.] But how to change a behaviour? I can help! The first step is to assess your current movement factor and home setup, as well as your current behaviour patterns. To change a behaviour, we work together to identify new cues and rewards. One-on-one assistance in your environment will help you turn your newfound knowledge into daily habits.


Movement Coaching At Work: How do I change my workspace?

Picture
Perhaps you've attended my workshop, “I’m Not Sitting Anymore, What Now?!”, and you’re looking for help with next steps. You know you need to move more during the workday, but where to begin? How do you change your space to enhance movement? How do you remember to get up and move around throughout your day? Personalized movement coaching in your environment will help you turn your newfound knowledge into daily habits.

If one of these descriptions speaks to you, you need to speak to me!

How Can I Help?

I have a truly unique skill set that allows me to offer movement coaching: I have two psychology degrees, so I understand behaviour and motivation. I have a background in health promotion research, so I know what the research says about the problems with our sedentary lifestyle as well as recommended solutions. Finally, I’m a fitness professional who focuses on body awareness, bodyweight training, and postural awareness. 
I’ve written before about how to make fitness a daily habit (click here to read that post). With movement coaching, we’re going ‘back to basics’: working on non-exercise activity that is sprinkled throughout your day. Every day. ​
Picture
My goal is to work myself out of a job; i.e., get you to a point where you’ve added the necessary movement that improves your health and well-being. My slogan is move more, feel better. If you’re ready to start, I’m ready to help you!

Land Acknowledgement

I live and work on the traditional and unceded Algonquin Anishinaabe territory. Algonquin people have lived in the Ottawa Valley for at least 8,000 years before the Europeans arrived in North America, and are the customary keepers and defenders of the Ottawa River Watershed and its tributaries. From coast to coast to coast, I acknowledge the ancestral and unceded territory of all the Inuit, Métis, and First Nations people who call this land home.
