What it is

What is a full body functional assessment?

A full body functional assessment is a hands-on check of how your whole body moves through the patterns every workout is built on. Instead of one number on a scale or a single fitness test, it shows how your joints, muscles and balance work together, where you’re strong, and where other muscles are picking up the slack.

Most people start training with a plan built for someone else. Then an old ache flares up, or one side starts doing all the work, and they stop. The assessment gives your coach the facts first, so your training fits your body from day one.

Good to know

What it is, and what it isn’t

This is a movement and fitness assessment, not a medical diagnosis. Your coach is a certified personal trainer, not a physiotherapist or doctor, so we won’t diagnose an injury or condition.

If we see anything that needs a medical look, like sharp pain, numbness or swelling, we’ll point you to the right professional, and we’re happy to work alongside your physio.

what we check

Six areas, one clear starting point.

Posture & alignment

How you stand and sit, and how that shapes the way you move.

Mobility

Ankles, hips, spine and shoulders: where you’re stiff and where you’re loose.

Movement patterns

Ankles, hips, spine and shoulders: where you’re stiff and where you’re loose.

Strength & imbalances

Left vs right, front vs back, and which muscles aren’t switching on.

Balance & stability

Single-leg control and core stability, the base for moving well at any age.

Your history & goals

Past injuries, surgeries, pregnancies, your training so far and what your day looks like.

There are no trial sessions. Every client starts with a free call, so we can book the right assessment for you.

Working with Marwa was the best investment I made for my marathon training. I had only done a half marathon before and I kept getting my IT band injured on every long run when I tried to increase my long runs. By the time I got to 30kms my knees flared up and were so swollen that I had to sit out from running for 5 weeks and see a physio. I decided I needed to work with someone who could check my running form and tell me what I was doing wrong in my lifting. My physio said I need to get a gait analysis so I don't get injured again. That's when I started working with Marwa, and honestly she was everything I was looking for. She's not only super knowledgeable as a running coach, but she's really good at explaining and breaking things down to make it easy to follow. She's also a very warm person to work with who truly cares about you and your goals. She would wake up at 5AM to accommodate my busy work schedule and come run with me on the track to see my progress. I managed to finish the marathon in under 4:40 and that's thanks to her. I highly recommend Marwa if you're looking for a running coach in downtown Toronto.

I wanted to get into strength training but had no idea where to start. Because I work at a desk all day, I've always had issues with my lower back and shoulders, they get so tight and painful until I eventually threw out my lower back at an F45 class because my form was bad and no one corrected me. I knew I needed to work with an actual coach to correct my form and build strength without constantly worrying I would injure myself. That's when I found Marwa. In our first session, she did a movement assessment and caught compensations I didn't know I had. She then built a training program around my body's needs that was super beginner-friendly. What I love most is that she actually teaches you why you're doing something and what good form feels like. I've been training with her for 5 months now, I'm lifting weights I never thought I could, and my back and shoulders feel so much better. I actually feel like I'm much more open and loose. I can't recommend Marwa enough.

J’ai eu une très bonne expérience avec Marwa en tant que coach fitness. Elle prend le temps de comprendre mes objectifs et propose des entraînements adaptés, ce qui les rend vraiment personnalisés. Elle accorde aussi beaucoup d’attention à la technique et à la posture, ce qui m’a aidée à éviter les blessures et à maximiser les résultats. Elle sait motiver sans être trop insistante, ce qui m’a permis de rester constante. Depuis que je m’entraîne avec elle, j’ai constaté une nette amélioration de ma force, de mon endurance et de ma condition physique en général. Je la recommande vivement à toute personne cherchant une coach compétente et à l’écoute 👌

Sally Eltahan

I had a good experience working with marwha, I was a complete beginner and she was able to tell me I had some alignment and posture problems that I never noticed before and later got confirmed by a physiotherapist. A lot of the excersizes she recommended were also recommended by the therapist, so she could save you some money if you're worried about posture!

Naomi D.

Marwa is beyond professional and very passionate and knowledgeable coach, she uses science based approach in her programs that is promised to give you results if you put it in the work. She designed a 3 months program for me to lose weight on a tight schedule and I followed her program and I got the promised results. She went above and beyond to make sure all my questions are answered and that I was following the program exactly. She also encouraged and motivated me every step of the way. I definitely recommend Marwa if you are looking for a healthy transformation and if you want to get real results. Thanks coach Marwa 🙏

Ahmed Hegy

One of the best trainers in Toronto! Marwa is not only knowledgeable but also super encouraging and understanding. She pushes you just enough while still making you feel comfortable. I’ve noticed such a difference in my energy and consistency. Highly recommend!

Nehal Ali

Marwa has been an amazing coach! I was a complete beginner, and she guided me through numerous exercises tailored to my needs. She began with a thorough assessment, to identify my needs and determine areas for further training. She then developed a specialized plan for me, and guided me through a tailored set of exercises during each session. She is very good at teaching form and technique. She helped me understand my body, become aware of my challenges/ strengths, and develop realistic fitness goals. Marwa is knowledgeable, encouraging, and so supportive. I loved working with her!!

Lital Yosopov

Working with Marwa was probably one of the best investments I have ever made in myself, especially as a working mom. I've never liked intense/sweaty workouts due to some chronic health conditions I've had most of my life. Balancing self-care with motherhood has been even more nonexistent. Marwa designed a fitness plan for me with compassion for my health challenges + limited time for myself, but one that also produced results. I started to feel significantly stronger within the first month, which was my primary goal. What I appreciated even more, however, was her ability to know when I needed to focus on areas like mindfulness or relaxation, rather than forcing a workout when my heart/mind were not in the right place for it. I really love & relied on her comprehensive, hollistic approach to fitness. Marwa truly is the body & mind coach!

Training with Marwa has been an incredible experience. she knows exactly how to challenge you while keeping it positive and motivating. What really stands out is how deeply she cares about your overall well-being, not just the physical results. She pays attention to form, mindset, and progress, making you feel supported every step of the way.

Omar Mazhar

As a beginner to the gym, I was apprehensive about finding a trainer that would meet me at my level but still challenge me to push myself. Marwa has been able to build me up from the basics of learning proper form, nutrition, and dedication. Through working with her I have gained confidence and strength in the gym and in my body. I look forward to our sessions each week and cannot recommend her enough!

FAQs

Questions, answered

Don’t see your question? Ask us on a free 20-minute call.

How much is a full body functional assessment in Toronto?

$150 CAD plus HST for a 60-minute, 1-on-1 assessment, in person or online. The written report is an optional $30 add-on. The assessment is included in Try 10 ($1,299) and in the 3-month plan.

What is a functional movement assessment?

A hands-on check of how your body moves through everyday patterns like squatting, bending, lunging, pushing and pulling. It shows where you’re strong, where you’re tight or weak, and where other muscles are compensating.

How long does it take?

About 60 minutes. You get a walk-through of your key results before the session ends, and your custom program within 48 hours.

Who should book a functional assessment?

Healthy adults with no current injury who want to get fitter: beginners, people coming back after time off, new moms cleared to exercise, older adults working on balance, and anyone who has hit a plateau.

I run, or I have pain or an injury. Is this the right assessment?

Book the BodyMind Gait Analysis instead. It uses a wearable sensor to measure how you move on each side, which tells us more about what’s driving pain or a running injury. Not sure? We’ll decide together on your free call.

Do I need the written report?

No. Every assessment includes a walk-through of your results. The $30 report is for people who want everything in writing, to share it with a physio or doctor, or to compare results at each reassessment.

Can I do the assessment online?

Yes, over a live video call. You’ll need a clear space, comfortable clothes, and your phone or laptop set up so your coach can see your whole body.

Where does the assessment happen?

In your home or condo gym across downtown Toronto, at one of our three private studios downtown (Brunel Court, Spadina Ave and Richmond St E), or online.

How is this different from a physio assessment?

A physiotherapist diagnoses and treats injuries. This assessment looks at how you move so we can train you safely. Many clients do both, and we’re happy to work alongside your physio.

How is it different from a gym fitness assessment?

Gym fitness assessments often focus on body weight, body fat or a few fitness scores. This one looks at how you move: your posture, mobility, balance and where you compensate, and it’s done 1-on-1 by the coach who builds your training.

Do I need to be fit to book one?

No. Every test is scaled to you, and the point is to find your starting level, wherever that is. Beginners get the most out of it.
