Hi! My name is CJ...
Welcome to the puffpt family. My vision is to promote health and wellness in the local community in the most accessible and friendly way possible.
My personal health and fitness journey started back in New Zealand at Les Mills. When I moved to Australia, I hitched my wagon to Anytime Fitness and then when the Cockburn ARC was born, I decided to join their team as well.
I've always been one for up-skilling and over the years I've gained a few specialty instructor skills, including boxing, rehab, pilates, functional training and nutritional psychology.
My favourite type of client is the average Joe Bloggs. I love working with people of different ages, fitness levels, abilities and goals. Basically, if I can help you enjoy your fitness more or help you push past a mental or physical barrier, I will!
A friendly, welcoming and non-judgmental vibe is what I'm all about. I try to make sure that all clients feel at ease with me and I promote relaxed and respectful group interactions. Somehow all my clients seem to be so amazing and I always feel we have a safe and fun bunch of people.
