About Function Through Fitness
Move Better Through Body Enlightment

​​Meet the Trainer
My name is Natalie Goodman, and I’m a certified personal trainer and functional movement specialist, certified through the American Council on Exercise (ACE) and accredited by the NCCA.

​

I offer in-home and virtual personal training, creating thoughtful, goal-oriented programs tailored specifically to your body, history, and needs.
 

In addition to my private practice, I currently teach group fitness and Tai Chi at Mass General, where I work alongside a team of physical therapists to help clients continue progressing safely and confidently after being discharged from physical therapy. I work with people of all ages, genders, backgrounds, and fitness levels.

​

My Movement Background:

My approach is shaped by a lifetime of movement. I was a high school athlete in gymnastics, lacrosse, and track, later in college trained as a long-distance runner, and continue to move through rock climbing, roller skating, yoga, Pilates, and strength training. I also study, practice, and teach Yang and Wu-style Tai Chi. I consider myself a lifelong student of movement, and I enjoy continually learning, refining, and expanding my movement vocabulary so I can better support the people I train.

Training Focus Areas

Depending on your goals, sessions may include:

• Injury prevention & pain reduction

• Functional movement & corrective exercise

• Mobility, balance, and coordination

• Strength, endurance, and active aging

• Mind-body connection

• Nervous System Resets

• Yang or Wu-style Tai Chi & basic Qigong principles

• General well-being and movement confidence

​

Why Function Through Fitness?

My goal is to help you move with intention, awareness, and efficiency, and not just to work harder.

​

I teach you how to coordinate your brain and body together, improving neuromuscular connection, balance, and body awareness. When movement is tailored to you, workouts become more meaningful, useful, and sustainable.

​

While weight loss can be a byproduct of training, it is not always the primary objective. Instead, I focus on helping you feel more connected to your body, move more efficiently, and perform better in everyday life. When movement improves, strength, resilience, and metabolic output naturally follow.

​

Where I Train:

I am currently accepting in-home clients in the Easthampton and Northampton areas.

Virtual Training:

Yes! If you don’t live nearby, I offer virtual personal training at a discounted rate, with the same individualized attention and programming.​
