Support and connection that enables you to enjoy movement & life Elena

Hi, I'm Elena and I'm the founder of The Movement Connection - a business built on connection, community and support. I'm a Registered Yoga Teacher and Personal Trainer who loves to share movement practices that empower clients to build a solid foundation of support for their lives, that encourage them to reach further and dream bigger, to believe in themselves…and more! I offer a variety of services, including group fitness classes and 1:1 sessions. Group fitness classes are a great place to try out a class and meet new friends in a friendly and supportive space. One to one sessions offer the chance to gain personalized, specific training and advice to support you towards achieving your goals. So whether your journey is working with injury, learning a new skill, or just finding a place to begin, know that you will be fully supported along the way with the Movement Connection.

It's a reminder of what can do. A year ago I developed Bicep Tendinopathy. I couldn't lift my arm over my head without pain, let alone kick into a Handstand. But physio and a progressive training plan meant that I was able to lift again within weeks, and am now squatting, deadlifting and overhead pressing more weight than before my injury. Ive built more confidence in my ability to navigate lifes challenges, and to support my clients too. Building strength helps us in so many ways.
And its never too late to start...
