James graduated with a Kinesiology degree in 1999. Within his first few years being a full time personal trainer, he was awarded “Trainer of the Year” and asked to become Master Instructor for clubs like Equinox Fitness.  He was most known for his ridiculous passion for corrective exercise and holistic health, and then he found out that he was going to be a father in 2007.  At that moment, his intensity turned toward: “How do I have the healthiest baby possible?”

James’ research turned toward pregnancy and postpartum wellness, and by the end of 2008, his articles had been translated into a dozen languages and GetFitForBirth.com was being trafficked by 150 countries. Eventually, fitness professionals requested a course that put it all together. Fit For Birth’s first CEC was the Pre & Postnatal Corrective Exercise Specialist.  Today, Fit For Birth has thousands of students and graduates in more than 50 countries, and their intention is to continue to be the epicenter of pre & postnatal continuing education.

Meanwhile, ExerciseAndMeditation.com is the location for anyone who wants to participate in fitness, while acknowledging that one's mind is the most important determinant of fitness, health and vitality.  Our personal training packages are centered around corrective exercise and mindfulness.
