Christie Cunningham

Born and raised in Vancouver, Canada, Christie received her Bachelor's Degree in Dance from the University of Calgary/School of Alberta Ballet. Christie went on to perform as a company and freelance dancer in Canada and Europe, and has been fortunate to work with companies such as La La La Human Steps and Deutsche Oper Berlin, as well as creating her own works.

To cross train for dance, Christie regularly trained in yoga and Pilates, but it wasn't until an injury in 2012 that she pursued a career as a trainer. Since then Christie has become a certified trainer in the Gyrotonic method, yoga and Pilates. She is passionate about injury rehabilitation and has worked extensively with dancers and dance students as well as pre and postnatal mothers. She has published research on dance related injuries and presented workshops at conferences including IADMS in 2014.

Christie currently lives in Seuzach, Switzerland with her husband, two children and dog. She is the founder of GHAM Training, through which she offers private and group training in Switzerland and abroad. Christie is passionate about helping people achieve their movement goals, whether it is managing pain, increasing energy or becoming an elite athlete. Her goal is to help people reconnect with their bodies and the joy of movement.
