About us

The Body Shop is a fitness facility located in San Luis Obispo, California. Started by a Cal Poly Instructor in the Department of Kinesiology & Public Health. The goal of The Body Shop is to teach proper movement mechanics and training methods to facilitate health and fitness goal achievement, to any and all willing to listen, and put the work in.

 

Exercise is integral to achieve the highest possible quality of life. Whether this means accommodating for a health condition, chronic pain, or current injuries, the education, professional credentials, and experience of The Body Shop's instructors make this a reality. The Body Shop provides the environment, accountability, and program design to ensure SAFE and effective resistance and cardiorespiratory training.

 

No one is "too old," or "body is too broken," to exercise. Getting stronger and learning proper movement mechanics can alleviate, or at the very least reduce, joint pain related to aging or previous injury. Your future you will thank you.

 

Testimonials

"I’ve been training with KT Streder twice a week [since 2017] and it has made a significant difference in my strength, flexibility, balance and physical well-being. I have a family history of osteoporosis, and I know that my work-out regimen has helped maintain my bone density and increased my muscle mass. I enjoy KT’s careful coaching sessions which include boxing along with strength-training, and I always come away from our 45 minutes together feeling energized and ready to take on the day. I encouraged my husband to become a client, and for many years he has also benefitted from KT’s extensive knowledge and excellent coaching. We’ve been very pleased to recommend her to friends and plan to continue as clients for as long as we are able." - Cricket H.
