Many of you know me already, but as a refresher, I'm Cheri and I've been studying Pilates for over 25 years. I'm thrilled to continue to serve the Humboldt County area, working primarily with private clients and as a group instructor at Vida Sana Pilates Studio. I've spent thousands of hours on certifications and education over the last two decades, most notably studying under Karen Frischmann for the Classical Progressions Masters Program to completed in 2023, and my STOTT Pilates level II certification.

Cheri Cohen's Pilates teacher training program was informative, engaging, and fun. I came into the session with very little Pilates experience and the course was extensive, but I left feeling inspired and strong. Cheri provided anatomy lessons, history of pilates, and everyday applications of what we were learning. The group was intimate and helpful towards each other as we were all learning with different movement backgrounds and goals.
Having experienced the 50 hour + teacher training with cheri cohen I can honestly say there is no other Pilates training like it. The depth and relevant layers combined with her level of mastery will completely captivate you as a student and help polish your teaching skills. She has a wealth of knowledge and she shares every bit of it.
