Student Testimonial
"Cabrillo's kinesiology personal training and weight-loss courses were instrumental in my fitness journey. On day one, my every ounce of apprehension was dissolved by the radiant compassion with which I was greeted. From that moment on, Cabrillo was a gateway to a world of wellness I didn't know existed, led by an instructor whose dedication to helping others has inspired me to do the same."
-Jason Matthews, Inspirational Speaker & Cabrillo College Alum
