About Kim Ball

Hi, friend!

 

Welcome to my website.

 

Let me introduce myself.

 

I’m Kim Ball.

 

I’ve been a fitness professional and a coach for over 20 years. And I’ve been an athlete my whole life!

 

Beginning with 15 years of high-level gymnastics got me hooked on movement and physical challenge. Plus, it changed my whole outlook on what I could accomplish.

 

I learned from a young age that…

 

Being strong and capable feels good.

 

It allows us to try new things without fear of hurting ourselves. It gives us confidence that we can persevere. It helps us crave activity and movement.

 

It has been my mission throughout my career to help others reach the same conclusion.

 

I love to see my clients become empowered. To see their capacity grow. To see them face their fears. To observe their willingness to experience some discomfort.

​

It’s through that empowered feeling that we start thirsting for more challenge and progress. We begin to seek out more adventures. And even in the busiest phases of our lives…

​

Life can be filled with adventures!

 

We can create powerful experiences and accomplish big things! Not just physical challenges, but other goals as well. But if we neglect our bodies, we won’t have the energy or the health to try anything beyond a mundane daily existence.

 

And for the population I serve the most (busy moms over 40), this message cannot be overstated. If we make strength and fitness a priority, not only will we feel good… not only will our bodies and minds be more youthful… But we will also be prepped and ready for any goal or adventure our imaginations can create.

ONLINE GROUP COACHING

Morsels of Movement:
Online Group Coaching for
busy, adventurous moms

I created this online coaching program for multiple reasons...

 

#1: I want convenience and simplicity (and a super effective workout!)

 

Moms over 40 (like myself!) have minimal time to fit their priorities into a day. With online coaching, your commute is eliminated. With 35 minute classes, your time commitment is minimal. With recorded workouts… it’s OK if a last minute meeting or a sick kid means you miss the live class. Convenient and simple. Ahhhh.

 

​

#2: I want to stick around and COACH movement! Not just passively give a plan and hope for the best.

 

I have not enjoyed the process of building a program for a well-meaning mom to complete on her own. It has consistently flopped.

​

The most successful programs for busy moms are ones that contain accountabilitycommunity… and the opportunity to just show up and follow directions. With Morsels- I'm leading and guiding and coaching you. You have the luxury of keeping your workouts off your mental load. You just show up and get results!

​

 

#3: I want to champion a culture of adventure & curiosity in moms!

 

We moms are going to be alive and kicking for a very long time. It’s essential that we make the time to explore new activities, to seek out challenges, and to continually create new adventures for ourselves.

​

When we spend time working on our strength and fitness, we begin to build confidence toward new adventures. We start to feel prepared & capable. AND we get to model what self care can look like to our very observant children. 

​

When we are surrounded by like-minded women who adventure, we feel supported and inspired. We are less afraid to take brave steps forward. Come get inspired with us!

PRIVATE/ SEMI-PRIVATE TRAINING

Personal Training Services

I began working as a Personal Trainer back in 2005. In 2006, Deliberate Movement was born. I added a local outdoor boot camp program in Long Beach, CA - The Badass Hour - to my repertoire in 2010. And then came the 2nd iteration of the BAH for the past 5 years in North County San Diego. And I’ve also been a head coach at Carlsbad CrossFit for the past 8 years. 

 

Through nearly 20 years of experience with one-on-one clients and groups of all sizes & abilities, I have a great understanding of physiology, movement, proper body mechanics, injury prevention, and training application. I use well-rounded, integrated, FUN strategies that get you results.

​

Ongoing research on all things movement and health is my jam! I apply the most cutting edge information to our training approach. And I enjoy pulling ideas from different forms of movement and sport. Being creative keeps the inspiration alive.

​

These days, I'm building solutions for busy moms over 40. But I don't just work with moms in the personal training setting... I often coach their loved ones as well! 

 

My Personal Training packages (either in person or online) provides a client or a small group with my undivided focus and dedication. Our experience together is collaborative.

​

You detail your long-term goals and desires...

I help design a plan that is customized to your needs... We work together to find success on the journey!
