My mission is to be your chronic pain specialist, coach and mentor, right in your pocket. I built the Independence Mentorship as a remote model because I want to provide high-level, accessible coaching that actually fits into your daily life. We work together seamlessly to help you build a resilient, capable body on your own terms. Here is exactly what this means for you -
True Flexibility: You can complete your movement sessions on your own time, in the comfort of your own home, without the pressure or intimidation of a crowded gym environment.
Direct, Ongoing Support: You are never alone in this process. You have direct access to me for form checks, flare-up troubleshooting, and the daily reassurance you need to keep moving forward safely. You also get weekly video movement audits with feedback within 48 hours, bi-weekly 30-minute strategy check-ins, and nutrition coaching with meal ideas and recipes, all inside the app.
A Clear, Seamless Roadmap: Your entire journey to physical autonomy is laid out clearly on your phone. You will always know exactly what to do each day to rebuild your body and take your life back. This is not a traditional, drop-in personal training package.
The Independence Mentorship is a comprehensive, remote coaching program with 1 on 1 touch points where I will be looking at the entire picture of your health delivered right to your phone. It is built specifically to address chronic pain and foster long-term physical autonomy to match your lifestyle. The mentorship has a minimum 3-month commitment, so we have the time to build real, lasting change.
Explore how our mentorship, assessments, and expert support help you move with confidence and reduce pain, step by step.
We follow a dedicated master course outline that takes you from foundational movement all the way to Phase 4: Independence & Performance.
We track your success using a clear Milestones To Independence graduation checklist, ensuring you are mastering the concepts you need to thrive on your own.

Discover how others overcame chronic pain, regained movement, and found new confidence with expert support.
"After my first private session I felt more confident in the gym than I had in years and knew I was on the right path."
"Some days are still harder than others, but I’m proud of how far I’ve come. Honestly, without Nic’s patience and encouragement, I might have given up."
"I was on a long flight, which obviously involved a lot of sitting. I realized that after 5 hours of sitting, I hadn’t felt any pain at all!! THAT IS HUGE!!"
"My hip still aches occasionally, but it is no longer a limiting factor in my life. I don't spend my time wondering how my hip will react or whether I'll pay for being active."
