Adaptive fitness that evolves with you
At Criterion, we believe fitness should adapt to the individual—not the other way around. Our personalized, medically informed approach combines evidence-based exercise with specialized expertise to help you move better, build strength, and improve your overall quality of life.
You are the standard by which we measure progress. Your health history, abilities, goals, and individual needs guide every aspect of your training. Whether you’re looking to improve strength and mobility, regain confidence after an injury or surgery, or exercise safely while managing a health condition, we meet you where you are and build from there.
Through thoughtful assessment, individualized programming, and ongoing adjustments, your training evolves as you do—helping you achieve meaningful, lasting progress at every stage of life.
Customized Programming Designed Around You
At Criterion, every program begins with you. We take the time to understand your health history, movement patterns, abilities, and personal goals before developing an individualized training plan. Whether you’re looking to build strength, improve mobility, or navigate specific health challenges, our medically informed approach ensures your training is tailored to your needs.
Our areas of specialization include:
Orthopedic Exercise — Supporting clients with joint concerns, musculoskeletal limitations, and chronic discomfort.
Post-Rehabilitation Exercise — Helping clients safely rebuild strength, mobility, and confidence following injury or surgery.
Pre-Surgical Conditioning (Pre-Hab) — Improving strength and physical readiness ahead of a planned procedure.
Neurological Conditions — Adapting exercise to support balance, coordination, mobility, and functional movement.
Cancer Exercise — Providing individualized exercise support during and after cancer treatment, with consideration for treatment-related effects and physical limitations.
From everyday fitness goals to more complex health considerations, our focus remains the same: helping you move better, feel stronger, and make meaningful progress at your own pace.
Advocating For Your Health
At Criterion, we’re more than exercise specialists—we’re partners in your long-term health and wellness. Our goal is to help you build strength, improve movement, and develop healthy habits that extend beyond the studio and into everyday life.
As part of your extended wellness team, we collaborate with your physicians and other healthcare providers when appropriate, maintaining open communication to ensure your exercise program complements your overall care plan. Through this coordinated, medically informed approach, we help you move forward with confidence, knowing your individual needs and well-being remain at the center of everything we do.
