About Toshiko 癌患者のためのエクササイズトレーナー
I have been teaching fitness for 18 years. I love to see people much younger than me really sweat in my classes. However, my focus has changed since I was diagnosed with cancer. My experience made me realize that there should be more trainers who can understand their clients’ physical challenges and give them appropriate exercises to continue their activities safely and effectively.
I believe that exercise is medicine. I have seen so many people get stronger and healthier by taking my classes and programs. |
