We aspire to repair the world.
This is an expression from our Jewish Tradition - Tikkun olam. It means we see the damage around us. The social injustice, racism, antisemitism, sexism, classism, ageism, and heterosexism. It means we see the hurt, and we take actions to heal. We won’t stand idly by; we will make a difference. We will take action through our open invitation to all as clients. We offer scholarships to those who are unable to pay. We will take action in hiring consultants and employees. We will participate in our community.
We are fun, love having fun, and make it fun, even as we work.
Andrea got stuck on fitness as soon as she discovered how much there was to learn. Curiosity is what motivates her every day to find the best exercise for each muscle group, the best approach for each joint, and the best way to make working out accessible. She invites her clients to join her in this learning process. Nothing excites her more than someone coming in with a new idea or new discovery. A partner to her curiosity is her gratitude to her teachers and her mother for their lessons and guidance.

I changed my life and I can change yours.
I love my life. I offer custom fitness programs to people 40 and over who want to gain strength, flexibility, balance, and stamina. At sixty-seven years old, this is my dream job. I consider myself Client #1. If it works for me, odds are it will work for you.
Over the past eight years, I’ve added certifications and training to become your master coach. I blend modalities because I have learned that not everything works for everyone, there are insights in different traditions, and variety is the spice of life.
I went from a hunched-back sedentary writer to a yoga master in my 60s. After thirty years spent bent over a computer, I knew I needed to do something different as I approached turning 60. I'm a playwright and was starting to become aware that the sedentary aspect of my chosen profession was not good for my body.
I became an ACE-certified personal trainer just shy of my 60th birthday.
At 60, I was certified in Tai Chi.
At 61, I added TRX certification.
At 62, I completed by first Mat Pilates Training and my 200 yoga hours.
At 64, I completed a Nutrition and Healthy Living certificate.
At 65, I became a Yoga Medicine Registered Therapeutic Specialist (RYT-500).
I changed my life, and I can change yours.
I am guided by your body and your knowledge of how you move. I design tailored training programs crafted for your body, interests, limitations, and desired results. My energy and sense of fun are contagious. My goal for myself and my clients is to age in motion, maintaining our range of motion, gaining strength as we add years, and eating sensibly and enjoyably. I created the Mighty Fit app to deliver your custom fitness and healthy eating program.

How I Got Here (And Why I Can Help You)
Eight years ago, I was where many of my clients are now: active, but not strong. Tired, stiff, and wondering how I wanted to age.
I’ve always moved — I danced through my 20s, walked for miles around Manhattan and Mount Desert Island, and swam whenever I could. But my fitness was inconsistent. I’d lift weights for a while, then stop. I’d drop into a class here or there. It wasn’t enough to build lasting strength.
In my 40s, I started lifting with a friend in grad school. I’d read about bone loss and thought I should get ahead of it. Later, I worked with a personal trainer in New York who helped me understand my body and move better — really better. I got stronger. But still, the consistency just wasn’t there.
When I moved to Maine in my late 50s, I lost the structure I’d had. I still walked, hiked, swam… but my weights sat in the corner collecting dust. Once again, I was active — but not building the strength I needed.
As I approached 60, I started asking myself some big questions:
How do I want to age? What do I want my body to do — now and later?
That’s when I got serious. Not just about moving, but about training. I wanted a body that could support the life I want to live.
My right knee was getting crankier with arthritis. My posture was slipping after years of sitting as a writer. I was fit, yes — but was I resilient?
So I made a decision: I would become a personal trainer and yoga teacher. (Details of my credentials are above.)
At first, my journey was selfish. I just wanted to age well.
But once I started coaching others, everything changed.
I saw how many people were struggling, even though they were doing something — walking, yoga, Pilates…
Still, their strength was slipping. Their joints ached. Their energy was low.
They needed what I needed:
A smarter, safer strength plan designed for aging bodies.
Something that builds strength and resilience — not soreness and burnout.
I have a confession: I was so impressed with my fitness that I delayed getting a bone density scan for years.
This year, I finally got one.
I have osteoporosis.
Part of the cause is Hashimoto’s, a thyroid condition that affects how my body metabolizes calcium.
But part of it? Classic trainer problem: I prioritized my clients’ workouts over my own.
That was a wake-up call. At 67, I recommitted. Hard.
Now, I strength train three days a week. I blend mobility, balance, and nervous system care through yoga, Mat Pilates, and Tai Chi. I row. I hike. I rock climb.
I live with my 90-year-old mom, Joan — who still does planks — and my 1-year-old pup, Luna, who keeps us both on our toes.
I coach clients all over the world.
I still write — but now I sit tall, supported by my core, shoulder blades gliding down my back.
This didn’t happen overnight.
It happened because I stopped hoping aging would be kind — and started training for the life I want to live.
I changed my life at 59.
Now I help others do the same.
