Gentle Yoga & Functional Strength

Move Better, Feel Stronger & Stay Balanced at 50+

Move Better, Feel Stronger, and Trust Your Body Again

Stiffness, aches, and loss of mobility don’t have to be part of aging. My coaching helps adults 50+ build lasting strength, flexibility, and balance—without high-impact workouts or one-size-fits-all fitness plans.

Using a blend of gentle yoga, functional strength, and mindful movement, we’ll create a tailored approach that meets you where you are today—so you can move with confidence, reduce pain, and regain trust in your body.

This isn’t about extreme poses or intense training. It’s about moving in a way that feels good, supports longevity, and allows you to enjoy life on your terms.

Why Gentle Yoga? Why Functional Strength?

As we age, maintaining strength, mobility, and balance becomes more important than ever. But traditional yoga and fitness programs aren’t designed for the unique needs of older adults. Gentle Yoga & Functional Strength Coaching offers a safe, personalized approach that helps you:

Improve strength, flexibility, and balance – Feel stronger and more in control of your movements.
Increase mobility and stability – Move with confidence and prevent falls.
Reduce stiffness, aches, and joint pain – Relieve discomfort and regain ease in movement.
Feel calmer and more centered – Reduce stress and improve daily mindfulness.
Stay active and independent – Get up off the floor, move, and enjoy life with greater ease.

You don’t need experience. You don’t need to be "naturally flexible." All you need is the willingness to start.

Getting off the Ground with Ease

"Before working with Joel, I got to the point where I was walking at a 90 degree angle. I tried classes, but they didn't work for me, because I had too many aches and pains. Then I found Joel and I cannot believe the change in a year...At one point the doctor wanted me to get off a chair and I said "no way". Well now Joel has me doing it 20 times without touching the arms of the chair and I'm so grateful. Now If I fall I can get up and I have some muscles!”

When I was 19, my father had a massive heart attack. He was 53 years old, the same age that my grandmother was when she died of heart failure. That experience shaped my passion for helping people 50+ to live healthier, longer and more purposeful lives as they age.

With a Master’s degree in Clinical Exercise Physiology and extensive experience in yoga and rehabilitation, I’ve helped countless adults 50+ regain strength, confidence, and independence—often well beyond where they were in their younger years, proving that progress is possible at any age. My coaching is science-based, supportive, and completely customized to your body and lifestyle—helping you move better, feel better, and stay independent for years to come.
