ABOUT JEFF SMITH
The functional fitness method applies the principles of human learning taught by Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais to current weight and resistance training techniques, making it possible to reach new levels of fitness and performance. The word “fitness” takes on a new definition.
Functional fitness training is for anyone who wants to increase their physical vitality - no matter what your current condition or level of fitness.
Having competed in many individual and team sports, coached basketball and tennis, and danced professionally, Jeff’s experience lends to his mastery and ability to coach you to be your best self.
“Life is a relationship with resistance: Meeting it, matching it; surrendering to it, pushing, pulling and playing with it. When you learn to make friends with gravity it works for you. Good things start happening.”

REVIEW
“I first went to see Jeff with two frozen shoulders. Working with him steadily, I regained full range of movement in both shoulders without surgery. I also learned how much my mind was keeping me from moving naturally and instinctively. My mind thought it knew how my body should move. I was moving in a strained, unbalanced way. Jeff showed me how to let my body move naturally from the core. I was taking beginning tap dance at the time and he helped me relax into my natural body movements. He was very fun to work with - playful, creative, adaptive and supportive.”
