Cheryl Garnham

From a young age working as professional dancer in the UK, my interest in music and physical movement was realized and defined my entry into the Fitness Industry. While raising my three children in South Africa and holding down a full-time business career, I studied and achieved a certificate in fitness at the University of Witwatersrand South Africa. I started teaching fitness classes most evenings and weekends. From that time, a love of teaching Group fitness took off for me. Since immigrating to Australia in 2001, I added a diverse range of classes, some freestyle developed by myself, as well as Pilates, Barre, Yoga and Les Mills programs. I have continued with ongoing education and kept up with the developments across the industry. For example; Further certifications in Les Mills, Pilates, Aqua, Tai Chi and Tai Chi-Fan, and working with older adults. I still love what I do, and am most grateful for all the support from my class participants over the years.
