Strength starts here

You were never meant to bounce back.

You were built to move forward.

Steady. Strong. Reconnected.

This is not a reset.

This is the rise.

Hey There! Nice to meet you

I’m Amanda
I am a mother
I am a trainer
I am a coach who listens to more than muscle

I created MOVE Like a Mother
because strength is not one-size
and motherhood is not a setback

For the Bold, the Brave,

the Mothers Ready to Rise

null

For the mother in her early months or years into her journey, learning what her body needs.

For the woman reclaiming herself after birth, injury, or quiet struggles.

For those whose core feels distant, whose pelvic floor calls to be heard, whose strength is ready to return.

For anyone seeking movement that honors the whole picture, not just the muscles, but the meaning.

MOVE Like A Mother is your space to return, rebuild, and rise— in rhythm with your body, in step with your season.

WE Are

Rooted in connection, every session begins with presence—breath, awareness, and the systems that support it all.

Movement is layered, with the pelvic floor and core leading the way, building strength through breath, muscle, and intention.

We draw from Pilates, yoga, strength, and Reformer—guided by your season, not urgency.

Here, your body’s signals are heard, and everything is built from the ground up, with compassion and respect.

MOVE Like A Mother is an unapologetic, bold step forward into your strength, steadiness, and self—exactly where you are, in your season.
