Jorge |
Né à Aruba dans les Caraïbes, Jorge arrive en Europe vers 13 ans et passe par les Pays-Bas, l'Angleterre puis Paris pour être joueur de football, mais « les blessures et le froid ont finalement raison de lui ». Ce passionné d'art martial combine taekwondo, judo et jujitsu, mais c'est vers la danse qu'il se tourne après la photo et qu'il pratique comme une seconde nature, avec « un plaisir fou » et de façon ludique. |

Après avoir pratiqué le sport de haut niveau pendant plusieurs années, c’est tout naturellement qu'il s'est tourné vers le coaching par la suite. C’est avec passion qu'il aime transmettre les joies du sport et ses bienfaits. Les cours collectifs sont fais de manières à développer toutes les capacités physiques (Endurance, Force, Coordination, Agilité, Equilibre….) en utilisant principalement le poids de son corps. Ces cours s’adressent a un panel très large allant du sportif débutant à l’athlète confirmé et permettent d’individualiser son entrainement en fonction de son niveau, afin d’avoir une progression constante et régulière. |

Mel |
Hi everyone! My name is Melody (You can call me Mel)! I am a born and raised New Yorker now living in the beautiful landscapes of France. My fitness journey traces back to my childhood when I first delved into the world of Kenpo Karate and kickboxing. For a remarkable 17 years, I honed my skills in these disciplines before transitioning to powerlifting and jiu-jitsu. Over the past 2-3 years, I've embraced both disciplines wholeheartedly, finding passion and joy in the challenge they bring. I've shared my expertise by teaching karate for 6 years, kickboxing for 8, and serving as a dedicated personal trainer for the last few years. My diverse clientele has included children, women, men, and elders, each presenting unique opportunities for growth and empowerment.I love helping people make positive changes in their lives, and I can't wait to continue this journey with all of you! |

Hey, I'm Sebastian! I Collided into CERN in 2019, and started giving fitness classes since 2023. Certified gym wizard doing mostly bootcamps and functional fitness, with a pinch of HIIT. I love OCR racing and long distance runs and hikes. I'm a guy who treks entire mountain chains for fun! In my classes, we mix up cardio, weightlifting, HIIT, calisthenics, and a touch of fitness games. It's a workout fiesta, concocted both for fitness connoisseurs and those who look for a new workout flavour. |
