Pat’s mission and passion is to change the way and the ‘pace’ at which we age. She brings decades of experience across the movement and health disciplines in academics, professional certification and CEC education, industrial-corporate-occupational health, rehabilitation, physical education and sport. In 1998, Pat conducted a 9-month Doctoral study, entitled Functional Training in Post-Menopausal Women, which further ignited her passion. But more impactful than all of that, she has been in-the-trenches coaching adults across ages and abilities for 45+ years, shaping her Robust Aging System, a system designed for adults to continue to pursue ‘what matters most’ for ALAP.
