Hey, how’s it goin?

I’m Dr. Ali.

Doctor of Physical Therapy. Personal Trainer. Nutrition Coach.

When I’m not reading Harry Potter, at Disney (or wishing I was), hanging with my dog & husband, or crocheting amigurumi, I’m helping runners train for their next runDisney race to cross the finish line healthy, strong and confident.

As a coach with 10+ years in the rehab space, I’m an expert in running injuries and have taken my clients all the way from barely able to run a few minutes because of an injury to being happy, motivated and running magical races.

in case you’re new, let me introduce myself

You deserve to cross the finish line at Disney without feeling broken.
