Your body is changing. Your movement strategy should too.
Whether you're in your 20s building the foundation for decades ahead, navigating the metabolic shifts of perimenopause, or prioritizing mobility and balance in your later years, understanding how to move strategically makes all the difference.
That's why this February, we’re partnering with one of our favourite movement studios, ORE, to bring you The Long Game: Women’s Movement & Health Series—three evidence-based sessions designed to meet you exactly where you are.
Every dollar of your registration goes directly to SACHA (Sexual Assault Centre of Hamilton), so you'll be supporting yourself and survivors in our community. Space is limited, so register today to join a community of women committed to building the foundation for a strong and vibrant future!
Future you is calling: Here's what she wishes you knew in your 20s and 30s.
You'll discover:
Exercise terminology decoded—strength, power, hypertrophy, progressive overload, and more
How to train in your 20s-40s that will pay dividends for decades to come
Practical ways to fit training into a busy life
Movement patterns that preserve independence as you age
How to set yourself up for success!!
This primer gives you the foundation you need to understand exercise science and build reserves that protect against muscle and bone loss and target health quality.
It's not your imagination! Your body is speaking a new language—consider this session as your interpreter.
You'll discover:
How hormonal shifts affect your muscles, metabolism, and movement
Why traditional exercise approaches may not work anymore (and what does)
Training strategies that counteract muscle loss and boost power
How to assess your current strength, power, and endurance baselines
Practical program design to maximize the opportunity for gains
This session gets rid of all the noise and gives you strategies you can use immediately to feel stronger and more powerful during one of your body's biggest transformations.
There is no decade where gains can’t be made! Future mobility starts with the choices you make today.
You'll discover:
Why walking speed and grip strength are informative vital signs
How mobility and power work together to protect balance and prevent falls
Why explosive strength matters more than endurance as you age
Movement patterns that keep you doing everything you love with confidence
How to assess and improve your current mobility and power
This session equips you with the movement priorities that matter most for lifelong independence and quality of life.

Did you know…
Your body operates on biological rhythms, not calendar dates. It doesn't recognize January 1st as a fresh start—it simply responds to consistent patterns of movement, rest, and stress over time. The arbitrary deadline of a new year often creates pressure to change everything at once, which rarely aligns with how sustainable behaviour change actually works.
The best time to begin moving better is when you have the capacity, support, and realistic expectations in place, not when societal pressure tells you to. Our team is here whenever you're ready to start—whether that's January, June, or any day in between.
From splinting workshops for Plastic Surgery Residents to the advanced neck course for Osteopathic Manual Practitioners to hosting nine courses and seminars in 2025, the Integration Education Team is a leading provider of continuing education to their peers and colleagues. We’re also keen to learn from other leaders in our field. Learn more on our Integration Education website!
