Meet The I.C.A.N. Sports & Fitness Team
My experience in kinetic chain evaluation and techniques used by the Postural Restoration Institute (PRI) guide treatment. These techniques are utilized in the programs of university and professional teams to enhance performance and prevent injury. Focus for success is educating the athlete on alignment and how it impacts their training and requirements of their sport.
I established the ICAN program in 2014 to teach the athlete about dynamic and static posture and its impact on movement, how it conserves energy and prevents injury by awareness of muscle sequencing in the kinetic chain. I have been successful in treating Connecticut athletes at the high school, college and professional level. In the last 6 years, I have developed a program for dance professionals. Most recently I had the great opportunity to work with the wrestling team members in the Ohio State University Regional Training Center at the World and Olympic level.
I am a Registered Physical Therapist. I received a Bachelor’s in Athletic Training from Barry University in Miami Florida.
I have had the unique opportunity to work in professional and college football, working with the Miami Dolphins and University of Florida Gators football team. I also assisted the University of Florida swimming and diving team expanding my skills with the unique characteristics of the sport.
I continued working with college and professional athletes in an off-season training facility in South Florida that specializes in preparing football players for the NFL combine and season working with athletes such as wide receivers and running backs.
I have worked for years with clients individually and in group sessions for weight loss, flexibility, strengthening, power, endurance, stability, and sport specific training utilizing the skills I have obtained from my diverse experience.
