About Us
Dannie Alter, CSFT CPT
Senior Fitness Coach
HELLO and WELCOME I’m Delighted You Landed Here!!!
Allow me to share 25 years of techniques as a Senior Fitness Coach working with adults, particularly those with medical conditions, injuries or mobility issues.
Is this you?
I can help you regain vitality & overcome some challenges of aging, to enable you to fully participate in life with renewed confidence.
I’m proof that my Functional Fitness Plus approach works.
Let me explain:
Our bodies are designed for motion. Staying active with my method will prevent muscle loss, maintain bone density and increase joint mobility.
Functional Fitness exercises use multiple muscle groups for each exercise, efficiently and safely in a way that replicates daily living movements like bending, twisting, lifting and walking.
When combined with strength training, yoga & pilates, the movements become more dynamic, strengthening your core, overall muscle tone & flexibility and as importantly, your balance.
And gradually, we experience positive physical & mental changes, overall confidence and wellbeing.
As your coach, I guide and support you to succeed. You simply need to be dedicated and hold yourself accountable.
Heres How It Works: We start with a Physical Assessment which will identify your current fitness level and areas requiring attention. I then create personalized sessions tailored to you.
Sessions are ideally 2-3 times a week.
To ensure progress between sessions, I give you an outline to follow, reviewing technique and modifications or progressions as needed.
By working together one-on-one, real-time adjustments to maximize your progress can be made.
Aging does not mean you lose your physical health.
Let’s start this journey!!!
With Warm wishes for your success
