A Journey of Trust
“Cherese keeps my body working! I’m 52yrs old and I feel very fortunate to have had the benefit of personalised PT with Cherese for the last 8 years. It amazes me how she adapts my training to accommodate my changing body and maximise results. Tapping in to Cherese’ decades of experience in every field of PT is a wise choice.”

“I am 69 and walk Laguna’s steep hills regularly, so I consider myself pretty fit for my age. I recently tried Pilates classes with Cherese and highly recommend her! She helped me with strengthening my core, balance, arms, and just improving my overall strength! It’s SO important as we age to work on those muscles you don’t normally use. The reformer makes it easier to get started if you aren’t already fit, but she also helps for you to work at home as well!”

“Working with Cherese has been our first experience with pilates. We’ve found it to be a terrific way to maintain strength and flexibility as we age. Cherese’s guidance is personalized and based in significant experience.”
