About Cherie
Cherie DeHaven is a GYROTONIC® & GYROKINESIS® Specialized Master Trainer and movement educator based in Maui, Hawaii. Cherie has a background in yoga, dance, expressive arts, somatic movement, and over 30 years as a student of meditation and esoteric spiritual teachings. She is a natural mover and lover of life. Cherie believes that with clear intention, focused attention and consistent practice any person can live and move freely through life with strength, centeredness and grace. With her encouraging and patient approach, Cherie uses the Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis methods as a platform to help people find a positive and receptive place from which to cultivate an enjoyable movement practice, whether they wish to develop in their personal movement practice or to teach as well. Cherie aims to facilitate the creation of conscious embodiment in herself and her students. Her intention is to both understand the anatomy of the physical body and the makeup of the subtle bodies so we can experience more than just the external physical expression, but a deeper, more integrated whole being and how we interact with the vast world around and within us. She is committed to helping people bring conscious awareness to their bodies and themselves to create balance, freedom, strength, flexibility, healing and wholeness. As well as training with Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis creator Juliu Horvath, Cherie has trained extensively with many Specialised Master Trainers in the US, the UK, Europe and Brasil. Alongside her professional work, Cherie has enjoyed learning rock climbing, Argentine Tango, Biofield Tuning and Qi Gong for personal enjoyment and growth. She is always looking for new and creative ways to learn, grow and expand. The Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis methods with their integration of fluid natural movements, breath, energy and rhythm have been a seminal part of Cherie’s personal development, one which she truly enjoys sharing. She has been practicing the methods for over 20 years and will continue to learn and grow within the methods for life. Cherie has also trained in anatomy for movement and has practiced yoga and meditation for nearly 30 years. She is passionate about teaching and learning and considers herself a lifelong student.
