Initial assessment and body-work
75 minute session
Recommended first session
This is a full assessment of alignment, strength, flexibility and body balance
This is often enjoyed as an exploratory first session and takes 75 - 90 minutes.
We start with a full body palpation to help create a ‘tension map’ of your body. We discover which muscles and joints are too tight, which are too loose and what’s just right. This offers invaluable information for designing a balanced exercise regime.
The strategy is simple but effective… we use strength training and Pilates to develop the areas that are loose and massage/flexibility exercise to release what’s tight.
After the palpation, get to know about your body with a three dimensional postural and movement assessment.
Danny will assess your alignment, over-all flexibility, strength, gait and movement ergonomics. This last point is key as sometimes our movement patterns and beliefs do not match the natural human design. He can also check on your desk set-up to find postural ease any time you need to use a computer.
Note: When your seated and walking posture improve, it's hard for tension to stick around.
From the information gathered and your goals in mind, an exercise and healing plan will be set in motion.
Follow up body-work sessions can include detailed massage to unwind fascia, restore natural flow and refine the balance of your flexibility and tone levels.
With this approach, positive benefits are soon felt and… are lasting.

Strength training for a capable body
The list of mind and body benefits associated with strength training is endless... it really is the ultimate longevity master!
Build whole-body functional strength using calisthenics, resistance bands and dynamic Pilates for extra core focus. Sessions are tailored to your fitness level and allow space and awareness for any injuries.
We use warm ups to not only prepare the body, but to enhance flexibility and check on sound movement mechanics. After the session, cool downs further enhance your suppleness and can include hands-on assisted stretches.
HIIT for CV fitness and energy
Not always the most popular of exercise sessions, however HIIT is the number one energy booster and when it's over... you feel great!
Some intervals have high impact and can be more intense, but there's always a modification. So, after a good warm up, Danny will tailor the interval intensity to match your experience and fitness level while respecting any injuries.
HIIT is the most effective and efficient way to enhance your cardio-respiratory health and boost your metabolism!
Martial fitness
Release tension, build stamina and boost confidence like nothing else!
Danny will bring strike pads for you to practice on. Learn a variety of effective elbows, punches, knees and kicks that double up as effective self-defence moves.
You may not realise how much power you have and it's hands-down the most fun and rewarding of all fitness sessions out there.
Gentle movement/bodywork
Sometimes you just want to feel better in your body without pushing yourself. Danny’s gentle movement session blends Pilates, yoga, breath work and assisted stretches.
To enhance this relaxing class, you might want to put on some background soothing music.
After the class class, you should feel relaxed, supple and with a great, yet comfortable posture.
Your coach - Danny Bridgeman
”My main goal for you is that…
you feel present and alive in a healthy body”
“I come from a background of martial arts where respect, awareness, strength, inner belief, self discipline and personal development are natural by-products.
These qualities have filtered into my PT sessions, movement classes and health coaching for over 35 years. As time gently rolls by, I have found that my teachings and my own practice have naturally evolved.
I don't do so much full contact karate these days or hit the gym for hours at time. I discovered the same flow through the subtlety of meditation, the simplicity of body awareness, the richness of clean living and the effectiveness of short dynamic exercise sessions.
I am also fascinated by healthy eating and my passion is to discover more and more about what it means to eat a natural human diet.
My sessions help to restore the natural balance, efficiency and strength that your body wants to express. Before long I want to see you regain a sense of enjoyment in your daily movement, exercise and leisure time.
I look forward to working with you”

Dietary assessment
There is a great saying that
”you can’t train your way out of a bad diet”
Which means no matter how much you exercise, success with health and fitness will always fall short is you continue to base your diet on processed foods and drinks.
some dietary tweaks may need to be introduced.
Nothing drastic is required though, rather a reduction of certain downfall foods/drinks and then the addition of nutritious ones.
This private session is best at your home so that you and Danny can discuss your diet while taking a little look through your fridge and pantry.
