Since starting my workouts with John my bowling game has improved. I feel more flexible. I have become more conscious of my movements and the value of daily moving.

Body Balance has changed my life for the better. Given my run in with transverse myelitis, I could have resigned myself to living in a wheelchair. With rigorous and focused personal training by John Perez as well as his associate, Joel Traurig, I am back walking and thriving. Balance Body is a special place! All the staff – John, Joel, Kristi and Amber – are amazing. I highly recommend you get an assessment from them; it will be life changing.

Training with John and Joel at Body Balance has truly been life-changing. My partner and I show up together, motivate each other, and celebrate our progress side by side, and John and Joel know exactly how to make that partnership a strength.
Thanks to their thoughtful guidance, I’ve seen real improvements in my core strength, balance, and overall health. They bring a mix of encouragement, expertise, and genuine care that makes every session feel meaningful.
If you want trainers who understand the power of working out together and who help you become your strongest, healthiest self, Body Balance Pleasanton is the place to be.

My balance is so much better. I am also much stronger. It’s like a miracle.
My partner for Body Balance is comparable to having my own cheer leader. We focus on our goals and help each other achieve them.

During the pandemic, I was walking by the Body Balance fitness studio in Pleasanton when I bumped into Kristi, one of the owners. They greeted me and gave me a tour of the studio.
When I started at Body Balance, I weighed 255 pounds and was out of shape. After twelve months of training with John Perez, the other owner and personal fitness trainer, I lost 95 pounds. My main concern was losing muscle mass, so John designed a fitness program that addressed weight loss, but also helped me regain muscle mass. John’s resistance training program helped me build muscle and feel so strong! “Getting older isn’t about resting and relaxing,” I realized. It’s about recovering the strength and agility I once had.
I want to thank John and the other great fitness trainers at BodyBalance for everything they’ve done for me.

I came to Body balance five years ago for a senior assessment and have never left.. My biggest health improvement has been the increase in my overall strength and mobility. I feel lighter, more energized, and noticeably more balanced in my daily movements. The personalized guidance has helped me correct long-standing posture issues and reduce aches I thought were just part of getting older. I’m stronger, more confident, and finally feel in control of my health. BodyBalance has made a real difference in my life.

My physical therapist retired and he highly recommended John Perez from BodyBalance in Pleasanton.
I’ve been driving from Castro Valley to train with John for 25 years now.
John and his trainers are super professional and really know their stuff about the body.
When I first started with John, I was having trouble balancing and my legs were getting weaker, but now I feel stronger and my balance is better.
I highly recommend John and the trainers at Body Balance.

Working out at Body Balance is not just keeping my aging body strong, John and Joel bring a personal touch that lightens your spirit.
I look forward to seeing them, the workout is just the plus!
I very much enjoy the movement and social interactions ….the mood is joyful and encouraging. I also like meeting other seniors and accepting our age gracefully. Keeping it moving!

I was referred to Body Balance by my cardiologist. John, of course, wanted to test my fitness. “No need to do that, at age 82, I am a life long athlete,” I said. Well,…I wasn’t as fit as I thought after testing, surprising and a bit disappointing. But John’s evaluation was correct. John has his professional credentials posted on a wall, just like a doctor’s office. He an excellent therapist, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable. John is very respectful of older clients like me and creates safe conditions for workouts. After ** months of working with John I am now more fit, more confident for daily tasks and feel much better about myself. I leave Body Balance workouts feeling energized and strong. I can enthusiastically recommend John Perez and Body Balance. For the past 20+ years, Janet and I have been working out at Body Balance twice a week.

We openly give credit to John and Kristi for the awesome physical condition of an 85 year old cancer survivor and his 76 year old wife who is also a cancer survivor and has had Parkinson’s for the past 14 years. Their programs were personally designed to meet our individual needs. As our conditions changed they seamlessly adjusted the programs to achieve our goals.
We are grateful beyond words for the difference they have made in our lives!
