Personal Trainer with a Passion for Older Adults

CR Functional Fitness is a state-of-the-art 2100 sq/ft fitness studio in Petaluma offering one-on-one training and small group classes. We are the only studio in the North Bay dedicated to working exclusively with older adults.

As more people understand the importance of resistance training for healthy aging, the demand for our services is rapidly growing.

Our current clientele ranges in age from 50 to 98, from highly-fit individuals to clients who use a walker. Regardless of their level of fitness, the goal for all our clients is to increase their strength and bone density which results in better mobility, lessens the risk of falls, and manages chronic conditions. In short, we help older adults maintain – and improve – their quality of life throughout the aging process.
