If you deepen your knowledge of anatomy and learn which muscles we have, where they connect, how our different joints work, and how everything functions together, you can use that knowledge to understand why certain positions stretch certain muscles, or why different people feel different things during the same stretch.
I didn’t just study anatomy for fitness and personal training — I also learned it through massage courses. During my personal training education, we explored corrective exercise as well: how to train the body to improve posture and address imbalances caused by shortened muscles.
During various massage courses, I also trained in performing assisted stretches to help clients improve flexibility and release tension.

I’ve been there myself.
I’ve had two knee surgeries, where I had to rebuild mobility in my hips, knees, and ankles. Once I reached a “normal” level, I didn’t stop — I pushed further toward personal goals like sitting in seiza (the Japanese way of sitting on your heels), deep squats, and splits.
I’ve broken my foot (twice!) and had to retrain foot and ankle mobility from the ground up.
I’ve fought to get my fingers straight again after bruises that healed the wrong way.
I’ve battled thoracic outlet syndrome, even undergoing surgery to remove a rib to relieve the symptoms — and after that, I had to slowly rebuild my shoulder strength and mobility.

I didn’t do it alone. I worked closely with my manual therapist for joint mobilization, my massage therapist to release tension, and used my own expertise to design the best recovery, mobility, and strength plans tailored to my body and goals.

These are just a few of the challenges I’ve faced — but they’ve taught me that with the right mindset, support, and smart training, real transformation is possible.
I’m here to help you find that same strength and freedom in your own body.
