Our agency had the pleasure of Estelle joining us as part of our staff Wellness day. In the field of child welfare, which can take its toll emotionally and then physically on the body, Estelle brought us to a place of reflection that allowed us to connect to the work we do, along with a means of release – kickboxing! I can say that all staff who participated thoroughly enjoyed the experience. For some, the session was a stress reliever, while for others it was a chance to slow down for a few moments to reflect on the importance of …
Testimonial from Laurel Carangelo
Estelle is like a breath of (EMPOWERING) fresh air. I loved studying boxing with her. She helped me access and embody my strength, power and authenticity. She offered rigorous physical training along with attention to my emotional blocks and my strengths to move through them. It was awesome to see her work with the youth in a trauma group I facilitated as well. They shined in her presence. Estelle made the boxing techniques accessible and brought out the strength, power and authenticity they had inside. I recommend Estelle with the most enthusiasm possible. We need the kind of power she promotes. I am grateful …
Benefits of Focused Attention
You deserve to experience the benefits of focused attention. Multitasking and scattering your energy across many different tasks and roles leads to lowered feelings of self-efficacy, increases your stress hormones, and decreases feelings of fulfillment. Make time for yourself and uncloud your mind. Practicing body-centered exercise helps to improve your focus and mitigates many of the negative consequences of spreading yourself too thin. Over a short period, this will translate into an improvement in one’s overall wellness. Self-efficacy Unrealistic expectations, either self-imposed or from outside people or entities, will quickly erode your feelings of how well you may consistently stay …
Release of Suppressed Emotion Thru Movement
To live fully is to honor and experience the full range of human emotions. By allowing for the channeling of suppressed emotion, you provide a space for those vibrations to shift, move, and pass. Imagine how liberating it will be to entertain your emotional life in ways that allow greater self-acceptance. Strong emotional reactions or underlying vibrations of fear, anger, or rage are part of the human experience. Denying those aspects of your inner world does not allow for appropriate channeling, release, or healing to occur. The adverse effects of withholding are substantial to self and still felt vibrationally by …
Self-Mastery: Responding Vs Reacting
Developing skills at responding vs reacting helps you to maintain your power. Refuse to be baited into lowering high standards and treat ALL people as you wish to be treated. This will always energetically bring you the best and highest outcome. ASK YOURSELF, “WHAT AM I LEARNING.” What are all your senses telling you? How are you feeling in response to someone’s words or actions? Breathe in and ask inwardly, why? Emotional Triggering and Feelings of Powerlessness This will often occur in situations where there is a general lack of recognition of something that matters to you. You may feel …
Grow Spiritually, Work with Divine Energies
One way to grow spiritually is to work with divine energies. They say seeing is believing; yet, there is so much to be felt, acknowledged, and experienced that may never be ‘seen’ with the naked eye. If you’re waiting for confirmation of the existence of something unseen, I suggest that you allow yourself to entertain new possibilities that are outside of any preconceived framework. A young mind has few barriers to seeing, believing, and trusting. Over time, life experiences create protective responses that limit our perception and hinder our emotional and spiritual growth. With an open heart, a desire to …

Testimonial from Jennie Ladew-Duncan
“You can go online and find an abundance of certified trainers, coaches, and counselors in Massachusetts. But there is only one Estelle. She provides an authentic and empathetic environment that goes above and beyond the traditional coaching experience. Estelle’s process is both intentional and organic. Together, the client and coach create a safe space. Estelle does more than merely meet somebody where they’re at. She provides room for imagining something better, something more. Our paths crossed a little over three years ago. A mutual friend recommended her when I was seeking additional support to address a depression that went right …
Testimonial from Cheryl Harrell
“I took up kickboxing a few years ago at age 64 (upon the recommendation of my primary care doc) and love attending classes at Box Your Way Fit. As a psychotherapist and spiritual mentor, I value Estelle’s focus on “the mental game” of staying positive, as well as, teaching the physical form and technique. It is a great combo. I find Estelle able to pace her instruction based on individual needs. Regardless of your skill or fitness level, Estelle creates a great environment for learning. ” Cheryl Harrell, Psychotherapist, Akashic Records Reader
