TESTIMONIALS

“Thank you for giving me hope for my future for pole!!”

Heather M.

“I am much more in tune with my body than ever before. I can feel it mentally.”

Sherry M.
“Colleen is one of the most educated people I’ve taken a class from, and not just informed, but genuinely cares about each of her students individually. You cannot go wrong working with her. The program she offers has enough consistency to help progress movements and enough variety to keep it interesting and explore new dimensions of mobility. One thing that stood out to me was the individual emails she sent me because I couldn’t attend the love classes due to work. She would regularly check on me and was be  try timely with her responses. So many people will read a question and only half answer it; Colleen really, truly listens.”
Riley L.

“I’ve loved getting more in touch with my core muscles! Taking your Mobility Matters classes has gotten my in touch with my transverse abs and it’s been a game changer! I can actually feel that meat corset turn on and it’s spilled over into other parts of my life from doing yoga to sitting in my office chair <3”

“A book that every pole dancer should read!”

Neola Wilby, Author of Strength and Conditioning for Pole and Pole Anatomy

[Mobility Matters] is slow. Not exciting stuff. … if you want to do exciting stuff you need to take care of the body so sometimes you need to do not exciting stuff so that you can do continue doing the exciting stuff.

Mobility Matters is about… releasing the muscle fascia, getting the body back in alignment and recovering the body from all the crazy shit we do to it even when we’re not pole dancing… it has really helped me a lot to pin point what I need to work on and my out of balance points.

My whole body feels taken care of. This class is perfect if you know you need some extra TLC to complement your other training but struggle to stick to it. Colleen is consistent, considered and holds the space for you to really take the time your body deserves. Would highly recommend to anybody, and there’s not an aerialist out there who wouldn’t benefit from Mobility Matters! ❤

I love your classes!  I feel like your weekly classes combined with my monthly bodywork/massage appointments, has my body in it’s best “recovery” state it’s ever been in.  Sure, I may still pull something the wrong way (I’m in my 40s, it’s bound to happen!), but I feel like I have more tools now to help me get back on track sooner.  Definitely notice more range of motion in many of the exercises we frequently revisit as well as in my ability to wrap myself around the pole.  I guess, really, that’s the thing – I never quite realize how much my body needed some sort of relief/stretch/alignment until class is over and I feel the positive effects as soon as I walk off the mat.

I’ve been taking Mobility Matters classes with Colleen for a couple months now. Not only do I love how loose & relaxed I feel afterwards but my body awareness has increased. I’m more mindful of my body’s connections & joints during normal daily activities and especially when I pole. One big bonus factor… my carpal tunnel has completed disappeared because of the wrist exercises Colleen has you do! I was having uncomfortable wrist pain to the point that I was wearing wrist guards every night. Now, no more wrist pain and no more ugly wrist guards! lol

Mel C.

In Colleen’s Mobility Matters class I realized WTF my body was actually doing and WHY I have some of the issues I have had over the years and why I could never progress with pole. After about 2 months of Mobility Matters privates with Colleen I decided to take baby steps to RELEARN Pole from the beginning with PROPER body alignment and shoulder engagement for MY BODY….I’m now starting over and LOOK LOOK at that genuine smile of hope and happiness.

I don’t have a movement background. I didn’t grow up playing sports and I’ve spent most of my life behind a desk.

I came to fitness and dance later in life after a debilitating motorcycle accident shattered my right leg. At the time, I was told that I’d never walk “normally” again let alone dance, run, or otherwise move freely again. That was a hefty sentence for a 19-year-old!

Through years of trial and error creating a movement practice first for myself and later for my students, I unlearned, learned, and relearned what it meant to move my body.

On my journey to move better, I found many teachers who were beautiful movers that had no idea how their bodies were moving in space. I found other teachers/coaches that did understand how to explain their movement but struggled to help students with chronic injuries, differently-sized or differently-abled bodies, or basically anyone who didn’t have a basic movement background access the same success as more able-bodied students.

To achieve the results that I wanted, I had to become the coach that I was looking for and understand from a practical (rather than clinical) perspective how to help myself first and then later my own students.

Mobility Matters is the result!
