  Dee Cymerint

  Instructor

  Dee is a certified Pilates instructor and did her training through BASI in 2013, she is member of PMA since 2014. Dee began teaching in a studio in Laguna Hills in 2014, remaining there until her recent move to Yorba Linda. Dee became a register alcohol and drug technician in 2015. This allowed her to be a part-time instructor teaching foundation Pilates mat classes to clients inpatient for substance abuse issues. This class helped patients reconnect to their bodies and the concept of "healthy body/healthy mind". In 2004 Dee developed a herniated disc in her cervical spine which resulted in severe pain and loss of much of the feeling in her forearms. Surgery was recommended but she chose to exhaust all other possibilities first. She attended Pilates group classes faithfully three times a week. 8 months later Dee was pain-free. She never had surgery and has not had any symptoms for many years. Pilates has been life-changing for Dee. She knew she wanted to pursue a career as a Pilates instructor, sharing her love and passion for Pilates with everyone! Dee believes as we "mature" strengthening the core, becoming in tune with our bodies can help prevent many injuries. Dee loves helping clients connect with their bodies, become stronger and more confident in all their daily activities (as well as their clothes). It's the most rewarding job she has ever had!! Dee's motto: Never let your age stand in the way of your dreams and passion.
