ANNAMAARIA “ANSKU” KANGAS

 

Health and Mobility Coach

My main goal with each client is to help them build a sustainable relationship with training;

One that allows their bodies to stay in good health and one that keeps them inspired and motivated in the long term.

These are the key ingredients that both need to be there and that both need to be kept in good balance in order for us to be able to make a successful lifestyle change.

I approach each client with their individual needs in mind; many people are stuck with trying to do more, be active, try harder….with it only resulting in injuries and pain.

Through assessing their bodies, I know exactly what their starting points are and what their bodies need in order to start feeling better and therefore responding better towards the stress we are placing on them through training. 

For so long, we have been approaching training from the perspective of pushing our bodies to become something, look like something or to perform like we’d like them to, that we have forgotten that moving and training should be about us learning to cooperate with our bodies rather than about us fighting against them. 

When we learn to approach training with that mindset, we learn how amazing our bodies can be when we treat them with the respect that they deserve!

A healthier body is always one that feels and performs better! Therefore sustainable training is always primarily based upon tools that our bodies need to become healthier and only secondly on the things that we want from our bodies.

For whom is my coaching suitable for?

I coach people who;

  • Have been suffering from musculoskeletal pain

  • Need to learn how to build a sustainable and respectful way of training that supports their health in the long run

  • Have movement restrictions that limits their ability to perform in certain movements

  • Feel asymmetrical in their bodies

  • Suffer from unspecific back pain

  • Who are coming back to training after an injury

  • Suffer from breathing problems

If you found yourself from the text above and want to feel better in your body, not just now, but also in 20, 40 years from now, Book a consultation with me and let’s begin your journey towards a healthier and happier you!

I am also a running coach specialized in skill based running training. Not running more, but running better; doing it more efficiently and in a way that our bodies were designed to run.
