GAIT and Movement Assessment

Understanding how you move is the first step toward moving better.

Our Gait & Movement Assessment provides valuable insight into how your body functions during everyday activities. By observing your posture, walking pattern, joint alignment, and movement habits, we can identify imbalances, compensations, and areas of weakness or restriction.

This is not just about exercise—it’s about understanding how your body works in real life. The way you sit, stand, walk, and move throughout the day deeply impacts your biomechanics. If left unaddressed, over time and these patterns can lead to pain, dysfunction. 

Through this assessment, we determine which exercise modality—Pilates, yoga therapy, rehabilitation training, physiotherapy, or private/group sessions—will be best suited to support your goals. This personalized, functional approach allows us to build a program that not only improves how you move, but also helps prevent future issues.

Because when you move better, you live better.
