Health and wellness cannot exist without social justice.

My goal is to fill an important gap in physical health services. The wellness industry capitalizes on our inadequacies and insecurities, is inaccessible to most, and generally does more harm than good. I aim to change that.

This means that my practice aims to be:

  • Body positive

  • Welcoming

  • Judgment-free

  • Affirming

  • Anti-racist

  • LGBTQ+ affirming

  • Trauma-informed

  • Affordable (sliding scale)

My Story

I’ve always been a mover. My love of dance has taken me on a journey from dance student to choreographer to movement coach to therapist.

Now, my belief in the power of movement has multiplied exponentially. Movement heals, and I love guiding clients to that realization, no matter their goals, needs, or our unique path.

I am certified by the National Council on Strength and Fitness as a Personal Trainer, Groundfloor Pilates NYC as a Pilates Instructor and hold a yoga certification. I hold an MA in Couple and Family Therapy from Antioch University.

What People Are Saying

 

“I’ve regained a sense of connection to my body. After years of working out fueled by shame and punishment, Alison helped me find a sense of inner strength that feels amazing.”

— Jill

“Working out with Alison has been an important and integral part of my mental health. I often found it difficult to motivate myself to exercise, but her warm and caring presence helps to balance my depressive tendencies and reset my mental state.”

Finding the joy in movement comes from within — and I’m here to help you activate it.
