Jason assessing a client's movement at IMS

Home / Book

Start with a conversation or movement assessment.

Choose a quick phone conversation to talk through your goals, or book a free 30-minute in-person movement assessment in Scripps Ranch. Either way, start with a conversation, not a sales pitch.

Option 01

Phone consultation

Talk through your goals, training background, scheduling and whether IMS is the right fit before making the trip. Call to arrange a time; online phone scheduling is coming once those slots are configured in Vagaro.

Option 02

Free in-person movement assessment

Thirty minutes at our Scripps Ranch studio. Talk through your goals, complete a gentle movement screen and understand what a training plan could address.

Choose an assessment time

Your participation waiver is completed in Vagaro. Please finish it before your visit. We're working on adding a shorter pre-appointment intake.

What happens

No workout. Wear normal clothes.

We talk through what you're dealing with and what you want to be able to do. Then Jason takes you through a joint-by-joint movement screen — slow, no load, nothing strenuous.

At the end you get a plain-language read on what your assessment showed and what a program would address. If IMS isn't the right fit, or if something should be seen by a licensed healthcare provider first, you'll hear that directly.

Prefer to talk first? Call or send a message. Jason reads everything.

Before your appointment

A little context saves time.

Complete your existing Vagaro waiver before your in-person visit. Your booking note already helps Jason prepare; we're adding a short intake in Vagaro to capture your goals and background without making you enter the same information twice.

Your goal

Tell us what you want to be able to do and what's getting in the way.

Your background

Share your current training and anything you want Jason to know ahead of time. Put personal health information only in the secure Vagaro intake, not a general website message.

Your consent

For an in-person assessment, complete your existing waiver in Vagaro before your visit. A phone-only introductory call doesn't require a movement-screen waiver.

Before you come in

Common questions.

Do I need to be fit already?

No. There is no fitness prerequisite and the assessment involves no workout. Every program starts wherever you actually are.

What should I wear?

Whatever you can move comfortably in. You won't be training, so normal clothes are fine as long as you can bend and reach.

Is this a sales pitch?

It's an assessment. If coaching makes sense, Jason will say so and explain what it would look like. If it doesn't, he'll say that too.

I have an injury — should I still come?

Come and say so up front. IMS does not diagnose or treat medical conditions. If your situation needs a licensed healthcare provider first, you'll be told plainly rather than sold a package.
