My SE Portland studio
I love helping everyday athletes--people who want to stay active for life--get out of pain, build real strength, and move with ease so they can keep doing the things they love at any age.
Like my client Suzie...
"Since working with Allison, I've reached a level of strength and endurance I never thought possible. I used to hike with constant knee pain from past surgeries. Now, in my sixties, I've hiked Mount Defiance and even the Dolomites in Italy--completely pain-free. I feel like I can take on any trail!"
My Qualifications
What is ATG?
I hold a BS in Exercise Science from GA State University, and I'm a certified ATG Level 1 Coach and a CHEK Holistic Lifestyle Practitioner.
ATG (Athletic Truth Group also known as Knees Over Toes) is a full-range-of-motion strength training method designed to restore and enhance joint function, mobility, and athletic performance. It's fully scalable--meeting you exactly where you are, whether you're training for sport or simply training for life.
By focusing on joint integrity, tendon and ligament health, and pain-free mobility, ATG helps you build resilience and strength. The result? A more athletic, capable, and liberated body--so you can be the athlete you want to be and live the active, pain-free life you deserve.
Is This You?
Maybe the weight is creeping in, or old knee, hip, or back pain keeps holding you back.
You've tried the classes, the gym, even physical therapy--yet you're still not where you want to be.
Here's the truth: it's not about doing more. It's about doing what's been overlooked. Training the areas you've avoided. Moving through full ranges of motion. Building real strength where you're weakest.
That's how you create lasting stability, freedom from pain, and results that actually stick.

Nearby Training
So if you're in Woodstock or nearby . . .
Physical training can be a difficult habit to maintain if it takes a 30-minute drive to meet your trainer. That's why I try to make it as easy as possible by catering to Sellwood and Woodstock residents near my home studio as well as NE Portland residents at Me Fitness.
The first step to a better you is often just stepping out your front door.

Book consultationHere's what Allison's clients are saying!
"I could barely walk when I first came to see Allison. I had pain and lots of swelling in my knee even after I'd completed physical therapy. Today I'm almost completely pain-free, moving with ease, and I can run up and down stairs effortlessly. Allison has shown me what's possible with the right support and the right kind of training!"
"Training with Allison has been a game-changer for us. We've had the pleasure of working with Allison for many years and have become noticeably stronger, healthier, and more mobile as a result. Our flexibility and mobility have improved significantly, and we feel better in our bodies every day. One of the biggest transformations has been the strength and stability we've gained in our backs and knees. This has set us up for success during ski season--we enjoy skiing so much more now because our knees no longer hurt afterwards, and we feel significantly stronger on the slopes. Allison's workouts are thoughtfully personalized, always challenging, and never boring. She knows exactly how to push us in the best way possible. What sets her apart is her unwavering positivity, genuine encouragement, and deep care for our overall well-being--both physical and mental. If you're ready to make a real change and want a coach who will support you every step of the way, look no further than Allison."
"Before training with Allison, I struggled with balance, had become quite sedentary, and felt anxious--especially about using certain equipment or doing movements I didn't feel confident in. Since working with Allison, I've noticed huge improvements. I feel much more stable during movements and far less anxious trying new workouts--even those involving equipment I hadn't used before. I'm beginning to regain my strength, and I feel more energetic overall with a growing desire to stay active. This shift has changed my life. I'm moving more throughout the day, walking longer distances, and I feel stronger when handling everyday tasks like lifting heavier items. Most importantly, I feel more confident in my body and what it's capable of. Allison is incredibly patient, thoughtful, and encouraging. She adapts movements to my body and gives honest, positive feedback. Her supportive, kind presence makes every session feel safe and empowering."
