"It is so intimidating to seek out movement care as a fat, disabled, gender expansive person. David has truly fostered a fat-positive, gender-affirming, inclusive, and trauma-aware environment. They made me feel so comfortable each session, and helped me gain body awareness/confidence in my abilities throughout our time together. David consistently took careful consideration of my ever-fluctuating access needs, energy level, and pain level. They encouraged me to accommodate myself inside and outside of the gym. Their humor and playful, supportive banter made our sessions fly by.

I came to All-In Fitness frustrated with my body, and found myself leaving every week with a newfound appreciation for it. If you are looking for a compassionate, attentive, and disability-aware coach - you have found one in David."

“I found David googling for “trauma-aware fitness instructor”. He is a very gentle and caring person with a lovely sense of humor. In addition to trauma, I was looking for someone who could work with me and my existing injuries.
One example of many where this injury-awareness type training has come up was when we were doing hip-related stretches on the floor. When I explained a type of pain that was happening when I set my leg down, David readjusted the stretch to “decrease the lever” we were creating with my body, and the pain no longer occurred.

My body is much stronger and my pain has become very manageable ever since I started working with David. I am excited to continue progressing on this movement journey with him.”
