my hope for each playlist…

“I promise to take you on a journey! It will be peppered with strong, heavy beats to help you tap in, some moments to smooth it out and reflect, & once-in-a-while a good old fashioned throwback (usually hip hop) to spark the feel-good nostalgia vibes.”

I love the feeling after we all climb a big, heavy hill (or two!) together... SHEESH

my hope for each playlist…

“unlock nostalgic memories, can sing along, and feel like it flies because you're having fun!!!”

heavy hills, long fast jogs with leans + ARMS!!!

I teach because…

“I found spin in Summer of 2019 via ClassPass and began instructing 2 months later. I teach at BHN because it is THE best community in Seattle made up with the BEST people in Seattle. They've made this place home!”

my hope for each playlist…

class vibes in 10 words or less…

“You will live it, feel it, and love it!”

“that each person has at least one moment on the bike where they feel fully present and connected to themselves, the room, and the music”

ugh I have so many! I love a spicy fast jog, out of the saddle sprints, and pushing the pace on a heavy hill. I love it SO MUCH!! it’s a way to share my love for music and be part of an amazing community with the best humans :)

more coming soon!

i teach because…

“i work in marketing at a gaming company, bringing the joy of games to people. but in 2019, i found another kind of joy—on the bike. spin was the first movement that truly quieted my thoughts and helped me manage anxiety. it has taught me resilience, how to push through hard moments, and how to find strength in the uncomfortable. a 30 second push? we got this! we can do anything for a short amount of time, and that mindset has carried over into all aspects of my life.”

a dark, moody, hill climb! i love creating a moment during class where riders have the space to find their edge and unlock their strength without the distraction of me talking a lot or offering very involved choreo.

i teach because…

“Short answer: it is so freaking fun!!…Long answer: cycling is the perfect mix of movement, music, and community! I love creating a space where people can take a break from their outie lives, connect, and push themselves in whatever way they need. I bring big energy and unapologetic enthusiasm to each class - my extroverted Leo-rising heart literally squeals with delight every time I am in that room!”

A gritty hill that pulls me out of my head and into my body.

my hope for each playlist…

“My hope for each playlist is that it takes you on a little bit of a journey. That it allows you to disconnect from the outside world, drop in, stay present, feel your feelings, dance a little (or a lot!), spark some joy, have some fun, and, in the end, come back home to yourself.”

favorite part of this class / workout? 

The moment I hear the first “woo!” because it reminds me that we’re here, we’re present, and we’re having fun! And, any moment where the song is so good that I can’t help hopping off the bike to dance with the class :)

more coming soon!

more coming soon!

more coming soon!

my hope for each playlist…

“..inspire someone to push a little further and show themselves they can do it, to laugh at a throwback, to have fun to a fun song, and to feel their own power. my hope is that the music propels us forward and reminds us to keep showing up.”

either when everyone pulses or does side to side at the EXACT same time. or in the middle of a heavy hill that everyone has committed to and we keep going heavier and stronger.

my hope for each playlist…

It brings us out of our heads & into the moment offering a sweaty workout along the way [if that’s what you need that day!]. There are so many opportunities to overthink in our day-to-day - my playlists are a reflection of what brings me to presence & joy in that moment.

When i come off the stage and watch the class moving together in the mirror together; i am so grateful for every individual that brings their energy into the room & trusts us with some movement. I am always blown away by the magic created when all that energy (highs & lows) share that space in movement and connection.

more coming soon!
