WHY SUPERVISION & COACHING MATTERS
Supervision by a qualified coach is paramount to your safety in the studio and your ability to improve. By learning the correct techniques from the beginning, this sets you up to build strength steadily. All sessions at Real Strength are directly supervised so you are always safe.
Coaching is not just about ensuring you are physically doing things right, but also to make you feel nurtured, encouraged and that someone else can believe in your abilities (even if you don't initially!). Real Strength is about building people and community as well as strength.
