Personalized movement for real results.
Private sessions are your chance to get focused, custom support for the issues that matter most to you. Whether you're dealing with pain, stress, tightness, or physical limitations, these sessions meet you exactly where you are.
We'll work together to understand what your body needs right now, and build a plan that helps you move, feel, and function better over time.
Why choose private sessions
- You want dedicated, one-on-one attention
- You’re working through something specific and need a more personalized approach
- You want faster progress or deeper support than a group class allows
- You’re ready to learn how to take better care of your body in a way that actually works for you
Your sessions may incorporate Clinical Somatics, Pilates, and Functional Fitness, based on your goals and how you're feeling that day.
- Sometimes a session will focus only on Clinical Somatics to release tension, reduce pain, or open capacity for movement.
- If you need strength, structure, or postural work, we might lean into Clinical Somatics, Pilates or functional movement
- Some days we’ll do a little of everything
You don’t need to decide in advance. We'll adjust together based on what your body needs. This is a flexible, smart approach designed to help you feel better now while building long-term capacity.
Who this is for
- People who want to work one-on-one to address specific challenges
- Anyone recovering from injury, surgery, or stress-related issues
- Adults who want a more personalized way to build strength, reduce pain, or improve mobility
- Clients who feel more comfortable in a private setting or who prefer quiet, focused work
No experience necessary. Just a willingness to explore and learn.

“Thank you so much for all the thoughtful exercise programs you organized for me. It has made a huge difference in my knee replacement surgery and recovery. I have to be careful as I feel so good I feel like I could play a set of tennis!”
-Nancy, Florida
“You patiently went through several psoas release movements with me. I have been including them in my practice and they have really helped. I have just come back from 10 days hiking in the Highlands of Scotland and usually after that sort of holiday I come back with tight hip flexors. But not this time -thanks to the Barbara magic."
-Linda, UK
