The Jump-Off VIP Session

You know something needs to change.

Maybe you're here because:

  • Your body doesn't feel the way it used to, and your old routine isn't working anymore

  • You have discomfort that won't go away (that knee, that shoulder, that tight back)

  • You've been exercising for years, but something still feels off

  • You're confused about whether what you're doing is actually helping or hurting

  • You saw one of my posts and thought, "That's exactly what I'm dealing with."

  • You want to start something, but have no idea where to begin

You're in the right place.

Here's what I know: You can't see your own movement patterns.

That subtle hip shift. That shoulder compensation. The way you favor one side without realizing it. These patterns are invisible to you, but they're creating the experiences you're having.

This is where I come in.

What if 60 minutes could change everything?

The Jump-Off Session is where we begin.

This is your deep-dive assessment. We determine what's actually happening in your body and create a clear plan moving forward.

Perfect if you:

  • Found me on social media and need expert help NOW

  • Attended my Alignment Workshop and want personalized guidance for YOUR specific body

  • Know a quick discovery call won't give us enough time to really dig in

  • Are ready to understand what's going on and what to do about it

This isn't a workout. It's pure assessment and strategy. You leave with a roadmap, not sore muscles.

The Jump Off is a one-time assessment session for new clients.

Schedule My Jump-Off Session

I know what you might be thinking...

Let me address the things that might be stopping you:

  • This is 60 minutes. Once. That's it.

    And these 60 minutes could save you months of confusion and wasted effort. Think of it as preventing problems, not adding to your to-do list.

  • You're smart. You've probably tried. But here's the thing: even Olympic athletes need coaches. Why? Because you can't see yourself move.

    Your compensations are invisible to you. They feel normal because they ARE normal—for you. An outside expert can spot in 5 minutes what you'd never see on your own.

  • I hear you. Most trainers give generic programs. They teach exercises, not why your body isn't working optimally.

    I look at YOUR specific body. YOUR movement patterns. YOUR structural patterns. Then we address what needs attention first, BEFORE we build on top of it.

    That's the difference.

  • Perfect. You're exactly where you need to be.

    I work with women at every level. Complete beginners. Marathon runners. Women who haven't exercised in 20 years. Women in their 70s.

    Your current fitness level doesn't matter. We start where you are, not where you think you should be.

  • Good news: this is exactly what I do.

    I specialize in working with pain and limitations. We work WITH your body, not against it. If something hurts, we don't push through—we figure out WHY it's painful and address that.

    Many clients come to me because regular trainers don't know how to work with their limitations. I do.

  • Fair question. Here's my promise:

    You'll walk away with at least 3 specific things you can do immediately to feel better, move better, or train smarter.

    You'll get written recommendations within 3 days. A recording of our session. And a clear next step.

    Compare that to:

    • Physical therapy: $150-200 per session out-of-pocket

    • Months of trial and error: countless hours

    • A program that doesn't fit your body: $50-200/month

    • Doing exercises that don't address your patterns: time and effort without progress

  • No.

    I don't believe in that approach. Movement should never be painful or make you feel bad about yourself.

    You won't be pushed beyond what feels right for your body. You're in control the entire time.

Here's how it works

  • Before our session:

    • You fill out a simple form about your goals, concerns, and health history

    • I review it and prepare questions specific to you

    • You pick a time that works for your schedule

    During our 60-minute session:

    • We can meet virtually (Zoom) or in-person if you're local

    • Please wear comfortable clothes (not jeans) so I can see how you move

    • We'll talk about what's going on, and I'll watch you move

    • I'll explain what I see and why it matters

    • You'll leave with specific things to do next

    After our session:

    • Within 3 days, you get an email with all my recommendations

    • You get the recording of our full session

    • You have everything in writing to reference anytime

    No commitment beyond this one session. If you want ongoing support, that option exists. If you got what you needed, you're done—your choice.

Real story: How this actually works

I worked with a client named Fred for years. He'd come in every other month with his workout written in a notebook.

We'd review how he felt. Whether he was hitting all the movement patterns his body needed. How to adjust for the season (cross-country skiing in winter, long bike rides in summer).

Sometimes I'd show him new exercises. Sometimes we'd just talk.

The best part? He always left with something he could use right away. A fix for his tight hip. A better way to warm up. A tweak that made his workout work better for his body.

The point: Even if you've been exercising for years, there's always something new to learn. Someone who can see what you can't see.

This session is for you if:

  • You just found me: You saw my content on social media and need help with your specific issue

  • You attended my workshop: You want a personalized assessment of YOUR body after learning about alignment

  • You need more than a quick call: A 15-minute discovery call won't give us enough time to dig in

  • You have a routine, but want expert eyes on what you're doing

  • You have a specific question about your body or training

  • You're dealing with pain that won't go away

  • You want to know what to focus on next—and whether you need help making it happen

  • You're tired of guessing and want clarity

  • You want someone who understands YOUR body, not just "bodies in general"

  • You want to know if Structural Alignment work would help your situation

  • You're considering coaching but want to meet me first and understand what you actually need

This is your starting point. You don't need to do anything else first.

What happens after our session?

Here's the reality: Some people get what they need in 60 minutes, and they're done. Others realize they need more focused help.

Both are completely fine. This session helps us figure out which one you are.

Most clients use the Jump Off in one of three ways:

1. You get precisely what you need, and you're done.

You have your roadmap. You implement it on your own. You're good to go.

This happens, and I'm genuinely happy when it does. You got value, you know what to do, and you don't need me anymore.

2. You realize you need Structural Alignment work first.

If I see deep compensation patterns or structural issues contributing to your discomfort, I'll recommend focused Structural Alignment sessions.

These aren't regular training sessions. They're corrective work—addressing the foundation before we build on it. Typically, 4-8 sessions are required to address what's not working in your body systematically.

Once your structure is working more effectively, everything else becomes easier.

3. You want ongoing support and join my coaching program.

Some people realize they want the accountability, expert guidance, and personalized programming that comes with regular coaching.

Perhaps you've tried doing it alone, but it hasn't stuck. Possibly, your body changes more quickly than you can adapt. Maybe you'd like someone in your corner who knows your body and your life.

We'll discuss whether my Vitality program or one-on-one coaching is the right fit for you.

Here's what I won't do: pressure you into anything.

At the end of our Jump Off session, I'll be honest with you about what I see and what I think you need. It could be one session and you're done. It could be a few focused Structural Alignment sessions. It could be ongoing coaching.

Then YOU decide what makes sense for you and your life.

No obligation. No hard sell. Just clarity about your body and your options.

Understanding Your Body's Timeline

Your body is adapting right now—to the movements you do, the positions you hold, the patterns you repeat.

That's not good or bad. It's how bodies work.

Some people find it helpful to understand their patterns sooner rather than later, as patterns addressed earlier tend to be simpler to work with. Others need more time to feel ready, and that's completely valid too.

Only you know what timing feels right for you.

What I can tell you: Many clients tell me they're glad they got clarity when they did, because understanding their patterns helped them make better choices going forward.

However, there's no "right" time, except the one that feels right to you.

Why me?

I'm not your typical trainer.

I don't believe in cookie-cutter programs. I don't believe in pushing through pain. I don't believe you need to be sore or sweaty for something to work.

I believe in meeting you exactly where you are.

I'm a trauma-informed coach through CULTIVATE. This means I understand how trauma shows up in the body. I create a brave space. I honor your boundaries. You're always in control.

I take a human-first approach. I get to know you as a person, not just a body. Your stress, your life, your real challenges—all of it matters.

I don't judge. Not your age. Not your body. Not where you're starting from. Everyone's body is different, and that's precisely how it should be.

I admit what I don't know. If something falls outside my area of expertise, I'll let you know. I have a network of wellness professionals I can connect you with (with your permission).

What I will never do:

Judge your capabilities

Push you past what feels safe

Give you a program that's not designed for YOUR body

Make movement painful or triggering without a good reason

Pretend I have all the answers if I don't

Common Questions

  • That's completely up to you.

    Some people get exactly what they need from one session. Others realize they want ongoing support and join my Vitality program or schedule more in-depth Structural Alignment sessions.

    There's zero pressure either way. This session stands alone.

  • I explain everything in simple terms. No jargon. You'll understand exactly what to do and why it matters for your body.

    If something isn't clear, ask me to explain it differently. I will.

  • Absolutely. I work with women from their 30s through their 70s.

    Your age doesn't matter. Your current fitness level doesn't matter. We start where you are.

  • This session helps us both figure that out. No hard feelings if we're not a match. I'd rather you find the right person than work with the wrong one.

  • Probably yes. I work with injuries, chronic discomfort, and health conditions regularly.

    During our session, we'll talk about your specific situation. If I'm not the right person to help you, I'll tell you and point you toward someone who is.

  • I'll be honest about what I see and what I think would help you most.

    That might be more focused work. Or it might be "here's what to do—you're good on your own."

    My job is to give you the truth about your body, not to sell you something you don't need.

    Here's what usually happens: If there's a clear structural issue contributing to your discomfort or holding you back, I'll explain it and tell you what it would take to address it. Then you decide if you want help with that.

    Many clients DO continue with either Structural Alignment sessions or ongoing coaching. But only because they realize they genuinely want and need it, not because I pushed them into it.

    You're in control of what happens next.

  • Life happens. You can reschedule up to 24 hours before with no penalty.

What people say

"I was anxious about creating good workout routines. From the first meeting, Laura was a perfect fit. She understood my physical therapist's concerns—like they'd shared notes. Her approach made smart adjustments to help me improve without overdoing it.

After our time together, I'm much more confident about my path forward. Laura is passionate about what she does and truly cares about her clients' well-being."
— Fred N.

Get Clarity About My Body

One more thing...

If you're still on the fence, that's okay. Take your time.

But here's what I know: you're here for a reason. Something feels like it needs to change.

The question isn't whether you need help. The question is whether you're ready to get clarity, and whether I'm the right person to provide it.

You'll know by the end of our 60 minutes together.

Let's find out.
