WHAT TO EXPECT IN MY CLASS

We hop on that bike to physically and mentally clip in. Be prepared to let go of anything from your day that came into the room with you. We will turn the music up loud and the lights down low, and push ourselves to a physical edge while singing our hearts out. You can expect a wide range of music in my classes, from pop remixes to EDM tracks with heavy drops, but I LOVE a good theme.

HOW I GOT INTO FITNESS

In high school, I experienced a pretty challenging bout of anxiety that left me frantically searching for a way to cope. Thankfully, I was introduced to the practice of yoga and it was like an entirely new world opened up to me. After that, I sought out opportunities to become more involved in different movement communities, and finally started teaching group fitness classes in 2019. Needless to say, I was entirely hooked and could not get enough movement or community practice!

FAVOURITE WAY TO SWEAT

I am always searching for new ways to move, but my go-to classes are always ride or hot yoga. Otherwise, I enjoy lifting some heavy weights and getting in touch with my own strength at the gym.

I’m a sucker for Rom Coms!
