About Arlene
Hello ! I have spent many years coaching clients privately as well as working in clinical settings covering general medicine units. I have taught nutrition courses as a college instructor and followed my dream to become a Zumba instructor since I love to dance! I have since created my own Zumba classes in a private community. To this day it is my favorite form of exercise :) If you are looking for help with your weight, managing high blood pressure, acid reflux, cardiac health or emotional eating I am here to help you ! Providing guidance for optimal health and watching my clients smile and succeed is what I enjoy most !
Approach to care
Making changes is not always easy. To be successful on a health journey it is important to be organized and to make small incremental changes that you feel comfortable with while creating a plan that incorporates your favorite foods. My clients are part of the planning process throughout our sessions so there are no unrealistic expectations. Meal planning, having fun and keeping my clients accountable with kind and gentle guidance are all part of my approach. Using laughter and music to encourage movement is where the fun is!
Your first session with Arlene
In our first session we will get to know one another. We will review your medical history and lifestyle habits. During our conversation I want to learn what you would like to improve on. By the end of our first meeting, small steps toward your goals will be provided so that you can be on your way to success from day one. I will be by your side to help you succeed every step of the way :)
