About Charleen
Certified Movement & Fitness Coach
Charleen is a movement enthusiast who really just loves to play. “My passion is to get people moving freely and painlessly. I want to help people experience a deeper connection with their own body by building Strength, Stamina, Balance and Flexibility. The stronger and more agile you are the more you can play without physical limitations. Whether it is dancing, hiking, bicycling, climbing, playing a sport, or crawling and playing with your children or grandchildren, our bodies are designed to move and play”.
Charleen’s transition from aesthetics based bodybuilding and ‘boot camp’ aerobics to functional movement and tactical fitness has proved to be an educational and adventurous 20+ year journey. She has gained much knowledge and experience in the many different forms and methodology of training and has created a unique approach all her own.
Charleen loves to train with everything from, Kettlebells, dumbbells, barbells, parralettets, sand bags, balls, ropes, gymnastics rings, hula hoops, and most recently Clubbells. However equipment is not required to play, her favorite type of body weight movement is Primal Move Intu-Flow, Flowfit, dancing, calisthenics/gymnastics, yoga, Aerial acrobats and “anything Scott Sonnon or Ido Portal teaches”. For me It’s all about expressing yourself through moving your body and finding Flow!”
