Body in Context: EDS & Hypermobility
Thank you for visiting Body in Context, presented at the 2026 Ehlers-Danlos Society Symposium.
The exhibit examines support, instability, compensation, resilience, and the negotiation between mobility and motor control. These themes are central to the experience of EDS.
These principles extend into training shaped by strength, coordination, and long-term capacity.
Common concerns:
recurrent pain flare-ups
feeling unstable or fragile
fatigue from constantly “holding yourself together”
fear of exercise after poor experiences
difficulty building strength safely
coordination / proprioception challenges
postural strain and compensation patterns
My approach
I provide virtual training that prioritizes strength, coordination, movement quality, and long-term capacity. Programs are individualized and adapted to the realities of hypermobile bodies.
joint-friendly strength progressions
pacing and consistency
body awareness and control
progressive loading when and where appropriate
sustainable training, not punishment
Working Together
Hypermobility-informed training is offered through individualized personal training and program design. Semi-private group sessions are offered by invitation only. Sessions are held online via Zoom and are structured to support joint control, movement quality, and long-term capacity.
If you are looking for training that respects the complexity of your body and is built around how you actually move, this work offers a considered and supportive way forward.
