Kamila Raza
Personal Trainer
Email: kamilaraza@sohogyms.com
Experience:
My career as a PT developed naturally from a lifelong dedication to sport and performance training. I performed internationally for 20 years as a ballet and stage show dancer. I bring this experience and my skills as a Group Fitness Instructor to my role as a Personal Trainer. I have a special interest in weight loss and toning, flexibility and core training as well as strength and conditioning. I’m also experienced in the areas of rehabilitation training and sports massage therapy.
Testimonial:
As a former professional athlete, I have worked with many personal trainers over the years. I am now nearly 50 years old, but in the best all-around physical shape of my life. I fully credit Kamila for this. Her abilities to assess your needs, focus your efforts and then push you towards results are a unique talent. I experienced huge results in a short amount of time, because she understands the human anatomy and what techniques focus on the exact areas where I needed results. She has a great following for her training skills and aerobics classes, where she continues to challenge her clients. I now live in the United States and cannot find anyone who has skills close to hers. If you want to see results, nobody does it better than Kamila!
