Body Language by Rachel LLC, stemmed from Rachel’s exploration and experience with the amazing community of movers she has been grateful to get stronger with throughout the past decade and beyond. She has taken every moment before and after a workout or dance class to consider what music created responses, what cues shed light on new ranges, and what atmosphere seemed to naturally invite all people into the space to try their best each day. Her clients and students are her friends, inspiration, and joy. Rachel is thrilled to bring Body Language Fitness to you as a studio where movement can feel like luxury and a necessity. Stronger, longer, confident body language represents the work you do for an hour in the studio to create a noticeable presence in the energy you bring to holding your head up high, walking with purpose, and feeling good in your mind & body connection.
