Virtual, In-Home & Studio 1-on-1 Personal Training!
Gee whiz. Can it really be any good?

Whether we work together in a 1-on-1 studio setting like Integral Method Fitness on Fourth Street in Park Slope, Brooklyn; in your own home or virtually it does not change the focus of what makes a session with me unique and informative. Working with awareness towards placement and alignment while building strength within the context of movement is powerful.

You would be surprised how even the most experienced free weight trainer can make a small adjustment in their execution and find themselves working in a more effective way to train the muscles they should be without compromising placement. We all are subject to habits in any endeavor and perhaps you are doing the things in the gym or on your home equipment that feels good, looks good or is comfortable but you are not quite making the changes you would like to see. Not all change is about the aesthetic either. How’s your balance? How’s your flexibility? How is your recovery after training? Uh-huh. All strength is limited without flexibility.

Together we can develop a fitness design plan unique to your current strengths and challenges. This might involve developing movement vocabulary specifically for you. Communication is key. Perhaps you did not have a good night’s rest before our scheduled session. Just let me know and we will adjust so we can provide you with a productive and healing investment of your time and energy. Perhaps it would involve lighter weight loads, or no weight loads, more connective movement or Qigong between sets to help provide better blood flow to the tissues?

This is about creating a conducive environment so that you feel better after your circuit. That confidence helps to provide a platform for you to build on. This is about your empowerment.

”Working out with dancer, Qigong master, fitness trainer Deborah Jackson is a transformative experience! I was diagnosed with osteoporosis in 2022 and Deborah’s brilliantly, sequenced strength building exercises have made me feel like a new person. I’m not only getting stronger, I am tackling long-held negative beliefs regarding my body’s abilities!”
Amy Cunningham
”When I first met Deb Jackson, I truly didn't think fitness was for me. Everything I did felt punitive and joyless, but Deb completely changed that for me. I've known Deb now for over 10 years and worked with her privately for 3+ years, and even after all that time I still look forward to our sessions together. Her workouts are deceptively challenging without being punishing: I never feel like I'm struggling in her capable hands, and yet I somehow always feel sore after the fact...how does she manage it? And just as importantly, Deb's relentlessly positive attitude makes movement a delight. I could not recommend working with her more highly.”
Nora Lovotti
”Deborah’s workouts would be amazing even if all she did was combine strength-building, coordination, balance, fitness, and grace – which she does! – but that’s not all. Every circuit she creates is customized to the client’s abilities and needs, both generally and in the moment, and she will modify her plans on no notice if you show up that day with an unanticipated issue that she will address on the spot. After my sessions with Deborah my muscles know they have worked, but also my soul is rejuvenated, and I feel so much more centered. Deborah’s wealth of knowledge and keen perceptiveness is amplified by her personal warmth and humor and caring. I could not recommend her more highly!”
Florence Hutner
”It is hard to describe Deborah without using metaphors. A force, an inspiration, a thoughtful way of engaging the world. Deborah has worked with our family, individually and together, for over five years. Whether helping us with stretching, strengthening, physical therapy or meditative practice, she has had the skill and acuity to meet us where we are. She is a caring and thoughtful practitioner with wide-ranging expertise and an immense and curious heart. We cannot recommend her enough.”
