If previous programs felt generic, too fast, or simply not made for you, there is a reason for that.
Small groups of four to five women. A live coach who pays attention to you specifically and adjusts what she sees, in every session. A structured program, coaching women since 2002, with a dedicated focus on women in this stage of life since 2009.
A 30-minute conversation to help you decide.
You want to build strength, balance, and confidence for everyday life, not chase an aesthetic goal or hit a number on a scale. A program that works with your actual history is not a luxury here. It is the starting point. Past surgeries, osteoporosis, joint replacements, nerve issues, or years away from movement are not disqualifiers. They are where we begin. Live coaching and real attention matter because a video library cannot see how your shoulder compensates, or notice when something is off before you mention it. Progress that shows up in your daily life is the measure that matters here. Carrying groceries. Climbing stairs. Getting up off the floor. Keeping up with the people you love.
A structured program built from over 20 years of real coaching experience, shaped to your body from day one. Every client in The Independent Body Foundation Program begins with the same expertly designed framework. Heidi adapts movements live in every session based on what she observes. True individualization deepens in The Independent Body Continuity Coaching, built on twelve weeks of direct observation.
Small groups of four to five women, coached live for 45 minutes and adjusted in real time. A third session is available.
A resource for every movement in your program, there whenever you want to review or practise between sessions.
Built from your intake before session one, so nothing about you is new information when you arrive.
A specific, named, real-world goal set together, so progress means something concrete to your life.
A direct line to Heidi between sessions. Share a win, flag a concern, ask a question. She responds personally.
An invite-only group exclusively for active clients. Real conversations, real support, your fitness family.
If something does not suit your body that day, Heidi adjusts it in the moment. You are never left to work it out alone.
This is not a class where you try to keep up. It is live coaching in a small group, with a coach present and adjusting based on what she sees in each session.
Most online fitness programs are built around a template and ask your body to keep up. This one starts with your body and builds from there.
It is coached live, not delivered through a video library. It is adapted to what Heidi observes in each session, not standardized for an assumed average. It is built specifically for retired professional women, not a younger market with different needs and different histories.
And it measures progress by what you can do in your daily life, not by intensity, appearance, or a number on a scale. That difference changes how safe it feels, how well it fits, and how likely you are to still be building strength a year from now.
The Foundation Program gives every woman the same expertly designed starting point. What makes it different is that Heidi is watching in real time, adjusting what she sees for each woman specifically. By the time the foundation is built, Heidi knows your body. And more importantly, so do you.
The difference is not just convenience. It is that Heidi notices things a recording cannot: the shoulder that compensates, the movement that is working harder than it should, the moment something shifts. That kind of attention is invaluable.
Heidi has been coaching women through complex health histories since 2009, including osteoporosis, replaced hips and knees, spinal conditions, nerve damage, and post-surgical recovery. Your starting point is not something to work around. It is simply where we begin.
Four to five women, all at the same stage of life. Each woman works through her own version of the program. Clients consistently say the group becomes one of the most meaningful parts of their week.
Women in this program stop planning around their bodies and start depending on them.
Women in this program are not chasing arbitrary fitness goals. They are building the strength and steadiness to move through life with more confidence and less hesitation. More confidence carrying groceries and climbing stairs. Better balance and steadier movement. More energy through the day. More willingness to say yes to the things they had quietly started saying no to.
Not a fitness achievement. A life that feels more fully yours.

Pricing and availability confirmed at launch.
All pricing in Canadian dollars. Your rate is locked in at enrollment and protected for as long as you continue training.
Most coaching websites do not list their pricing. We do, because you deserve to know what you are considering before you invest time in a conversation. The exact investment depends on the coaching model and session frequency you choose, so we can only provide a range at this stage. We figured a range is more useful than silence.
Heidi's average client stays for eight years. Most coaching and fitness programs see clients leave within months. That number means something.
She doesn't focus on the numbers. It's about the wellness overall.
Sandra M., client
Around week ten, Heidi will have a conversation with you about continuing. If you choose to move forward, you transition into The Independent Body Continuity Coaching. The coach, the community, and the relationship you have built continue without interruption. Continuity Coaching rates range from $220 to $500 CAD bi-weekly depending on coaching model and session frequency.
Not sure which coaching model is right for you? That is exactly what the discovery call is for.
Questions about the investment? The FAQ covers the most common ones.This program isn't a fit for everyone, and that's by design. It's not for you if you're looking for a high-intensity bootcamp, a one-size-fits-all plan with no live coaching, rapid aesthetic change on a tight timeline, or simply the cheapest option you can find. If none of that describes you, you're exactly who this was built for.
Because trust is earned, not assumed.
These are not marketing promises. They are the specific conditions under which Heidi will adapt, extend, or refund your program. Written clearly so you know exactly what to expect.
You will never be told to push through it. When something is not right for your body in that moment, Heidi adapts it immediately. That is not an exception. That is the standard. This applies to every session, every phase, for as long as you train here.
Available to Semi-Private and One-on-One clients. If you attend a minimum of 80% of your scheduled sessions, keep up with your weekly check-in forms, and engage genuinely with the program, but have not become measurably stronger or more capable by week eight, your Foundation Program extends at no additional cost until measurable progress is documented toward your Capability Milestone.
Available to Semi-Private and One-on-One clients. If after 30 days you genuinely feel this program is not safe, structured, and designed with your specific body in mind, you qualify for this guarantee, provided you have attended a minimum of six of your first eight sessions and completed at least half of your weekly check-in forms. If you qualify, you are not charged for the weeks you have not yet used, whether that means no further payments are withdrawn or a refund of what has already been paid. The amount is calculated at your program's per-week rate, minus a one-time $100 administrative and onboarding fee. For an easy math example: on a 12-week, $1,200 program, five completed weeks would leave $700 remaining, or $600 after the fee.
A note from Heidi:
"You're trusting me with your energy, time, and hope, and I want you to make that decision feeling calm and confident, never pressured. These guarantees are my way of making sure you're truly looked after with support and personalization, not handed a generic plan and left to figure it out alone."
When you book your discovery call, you receive a short health history form to complete beforehand. Heidi arrives at the call already knowing something about you, so the conversation starts in the right place. If you decide to move forward on the call, she extends the time to complete your full intake together. From that intake she creates your Personal Movement Blueprint before your first session. She also works with you to define your 8-Week Capability Milestone: a specific, real-world functional goal that matters to your daily life.
You do not start from scratch, and you do not start unseen.
Valerie came to Heidi after physiotherapy was done but her body had not come back to where it was. Broken shoulder. Physiotherapy complete. Still not moving the way she wanted to. Eight weeks of targeted virtual strength training. Shoulder restored. Posture realigned. The following season: 100 rounds of golf.
Read Valerie's full storySandra had over a year of knee pain and surgery scheduled. She decided to use the time before surgery to prepare her body for the recovery. Knee replacement surgery scheduled. Over a year of excruciating pain. Six weeks of pre-surgical strength training with Heidi. Recovery faster than her surgical team anticipated.
