fitness for women who want to
set themselves free

YOU DON'T NEED TO

KEEP TRYING TO MAKE YOURSELF FIT INTO THE BOX OF UNREALISTIC PROGRAMS THAT DON'T UNDERSTAND YOUR LIFE OR YOUR CHANGING BODY

FOLLOW CONFUSING AND RESTRICTING RULES ABOUT MOVEMENT FOR PREGNANT AND POSTPARTUM BODIES

OR BUY IN TO OPPRESSIVE SOCIETAL EXPECTATIONS OF BODY AESTHETICS OR MOTHERHOOD

MOST OF ALL, YOU DON'T NEED TO STAY STUCK IN YOUR BODY BECAUSE OF PAIN, SYMPTOMS, UNCERTAINTY, OR FEELING GENERALLY BLAH, FRUSTRATED THAT FITNESS DOESN'T WORK FOR YOU.

it doesn't need to be this hard.

I CAN SHOW YOU HOW TO BREAK ALL THE RULES

AND LEARN HOW TO MAKE FITNESS WORK FOR YOUR LIFE, YOUR GOALS, YOUR BODY

SO THAT YOU CAN FEEL LIKE YOU,

NEVER BE HELD BACK BY YOUR BODY

AND BE FREE TO DO

ALL THE THINGS YOU LOVE
IN EXERCISE AND IN LIFE

WORKING WITH TARA WAS ONE OF THE BEST DECISIONS I HAVE EVER MADE...SHE HAS A WAY OF ENCOURAGING AND UNDERSTANDING THAT IS RARE IN THE FITNESS WORLD.

SHE HELPS YOU SET GOALS THAT YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE WHILE SUPPORTING YOU AND CHEERING YOU ON EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. ..SHE HELPED ME MOVE PAST THE FEARS I HAD OF SOME OF THE GYM EQUIPMENT AND ENCOURAGED ME TO TRY NEW THINGS.

...NOT ONLY DID I GAIN A SOLID UNDERSTANDING OF HOW TO MOVE MY BODY SAFELY AND EFFICIENTLY, BUT CONFIDENCE IN MYSELF AND IN WHAT I WAS DOING.

SHE WAS SO SUPPORTIVE AND REAL WHEN WE WORKED ON NUTRITION, AND REALLY "GETS IT" WHEN IT COMES TO WHAT REAL LIFE IS LIKE...THERE WAS NEVER A TIME WHERE I FELT JUDGED. I WAS ALWAYS MET WITH KINDNESS, COMPASSION, AND A STRONG SENSE OF "YOU CAN DO IT!"

IF YOU GET THE CHANCE TO WORK WITH HER...DO IT. YOU WON'T REGRET IT!

i offer

HI, I'M TARA

I AM A CERTIFIED PERSONAL TRAINER, PRE AND POSTNATAL FITNESS SPECIALIST, WOMEN'S FITNESS COACH, AND A MOM OF FOUR WILD AND SWEET KIDS

I WAS ONCE THAT KID THAT DIDN'T LISTEN AND ALWAYS HAD HER OWN IDEAS. I GREW UP TO BE A LIFE-LONG RULE-BREAKER, CREATING THE LIFE I WANT (MY WAY.)

I CAN'T GO ALONG WITH A BAD PLAN.

IF SOMETHING IS NOT WORKING, WHY ARE WE DOING IT?

WHEN IT CAME TO THE FITNESS INDUSTRY, I STARTED TO QUESTION ALL OF IT.

WHY ARE POSTPARTUM FOLKS BEING TOLD TO FOLLOW RULES (THAT AREN'T ACTUALLY HELPING THEM) AND BEING COACHED LIKE THEY DIDN'T JUST HAVE A BABY?

WHAT IS UP WITH ALL THE FITNESS AND NUTRITION ABSOLUTES WHEN EVERYTHING IS RELATIVE AND NUANCED?

WHY ARE FOLKS BEING GIVEN PROGRAMS THEY CAN’T ACTUALLY (OR DON'T WANT TO) FOLLOW?

IF YOUR RELATIONSHIPS WITH EXERCISE AND FOOD AREN'T MAKING YOU FEEL BETTER IN YOUR BODY, HOW CAN I CHANGE THAT?

TO CREATING THE LIFE YOU REALLY WANT TO BE LIVING?

work with me

I AM BLOWN AWAY BY THE CHANGE I HAVE EXPERIENCED. ONE YEAR AGO MY MISCARRIAGE LEFT MY BODY SORE, TIRED, AND WEAK. MY MENTAL HEALTH WAS EXHAUSTED, MY BACK WAS CONSTANTLY SORE, AND MY PROLAPSE SYMPTOMS WERE SO BAD THAT I COULDN’T STAND TO COMPLETE A TASK SUCH A WASHING THE DISHES OR HOLD MY KIDS WHILE IN A STANDING POSITION FOR LONGER THAN 2 MINUTES.

TARA WAS WITH ME EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. SHE CREATED A WORK OUT PROGRAM PERSONALIZED TO MY NEEDS AND SYMPTOMS. SHE HELP ME TRANSFORM MY ALL OR NOTHING MINDSET TO A LIFE GIVING PRACTICE. SHE GAVE ME GRACE AND TAUGHT ME HOW TO BE PATIENT WITH MYSELF.

AT THE END OF THE 6 MONTHS, I COULDN’T BELIEVE HOW STRONG I WAS. MY SYMPTOMS WERE AT A PLACE WHERE I COULD MANAGE THEM AND I WAS RUNNING AGAIN. I FELT CONFIDENT AND HAD THE TOOLS I NEEDED TO CONTINUE TO STRENGTHEN MY BODY.

I FEEL THE BEST I HAVE IN YEARS AND I KNOW THAT I’LL ALWAYS LOOK BACK ON THE TOOLS YOU GAVE ME THAT CHANGED THE QUALITY OF MY LIFE.
