Evidence-Based Mind-Body Fitness & Nutrition
Led by Fitness & Nutrition Specialist April Deweese, aprildfitness combines strength training, physical-therapy–informed movement, therapeutic stretch and mobility, trauma-informed nervous system regulation, and whole-food, plant-based nutrition.
This integrated approach supports body recomposition, gut health and hormone balance, pain relief and chronic disease prevention, stress resilience, and long-term metabolic health.
This is not quick-fix fitness — it’s a science-based system designed to support the body and nervous system through personal training, mobility work, nutrition, and trauma-informed healing.

Experience personalized, one-on-one personal training tailored to your unique body, goals, and energy levels. Sessions include strength training, therapeutic stretch and mobility, posture improvement, and conditioning — all designed to build strength safely, and support recovery.
Programs consider your nervous system, recovery capacity, and movement history, ensuring your body grows stronger without unnecessary stress or pain.

Personalized, whole-food, plant-based nutrition designed to reduce body fat, build muscle, and prevent chronic disease. By prioritizing gut health and providing vital nutrients, we nourish both the gut and brain while stabilizing blood sugar and balancing hormones. This holistic approach not only supports digestion and reduces inflammation but also helps curb cravings and restores energy—
creating the foundation for sustainable body recomposition and long-term health.

Physical-therapy–based sessions are designed to improve mobility, relieve pain in the back, hips, neck, and shoulders, and restore healthy movement patterns — especially for those managing chronic disease. Sessions use targeted therapeutic stretch and mobility, joint mobility work, and corrective exercises to address stiffness, postural imbalances, and muscle soreness while calming inflammation.

The nervous system plays a crucial role in how your body responds to stress, danger, and rest. Dysregulation can leave the body stuck in fight-or-flight or shutdown mode. Our trauma-informed nervous system healing program helps activate the parasympathetic nervous system, supporting deep recovery, emotional stability, better sleep, improved gut health, and resilience to stress.

Private sessions support fat loss, body recomposition, strength, tone, mobility, and pain relief through structured, progressive training that adapts to your body and recovery needs. When paired with whole-food, plant-based nutrition, these sessions improve metabolic health, support hormone balance, reduce inflammation, and create sustainable, long-term results rather than short-term fixes.
Sessions: 30–60 minutes • In-home, private studio or online
