A Bit About Me
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.

This is to confirm that Cheryl Graham instructed at Waterfall Health Studio until February 2001. She proved to be very satisfactory and our members enjoyed her classes enormously. I would personally recommend her to any professional aerobic institute and wish her well in her aerobic career.

We are a group of women with varying degrees of fitness and ages from mid 40's to mid 70's. Cheryl conducted her class with confidence whilst being mindful of the above circumstances. The Total Body Awareness class was a mixture of Tai Chi, Pilates and Yoga that left us feeling refreshed and relaxed. Mooroopna C. W. A. recommends Cheryl's Total Body Awareness class to any group or individual who is looking for that something a little bit different in their everyday lives. Cheryl's class will appeal to those seeking fitness or just looking to relax and refresh the mind, body and soul.
