Ashilyn Sunderman
The classes I teach are functional strength training, spin cycling, and yoga. My favorite is strength training with a little cardio kicked it. I also love to run, hike, and bike. I am a Certified Group Fitness Instructor through NESTA and a Certified Yoga Instructor through NETA. I almost always workout first thing in the morning to jump start my day.
Favorite Quote, "The only bad workout is the one that didn't happen."

Ruth Regehr
I’m a wife, mother, and grandmother. I am a runner, a cyclist, and a swimmer, but most importantly I am a Christian and give God all the glory for all that He has done in my life. I am a certified group fitness instructor. I teach spin classes and strength training classes. I really like to work with people and see them transition their lives for the better. This transition is so important to me because I have seen the highs and the lows myself. Exercise has been a big part of my life and I know how the positive impact it has on me. A strong, healthy body is important to face life’s challenges. My first fitness love is running, I have competed in many runs ranging from a 5k to a full marathon. My second fitness love is cycling. Cycling has proven to be a great cross training exercise when mixed with running. I enjoy riding in organized rides, with my favorite being RAGBAI. I also enjoy swimming, which allows me to put all three exercises together to compete in triathlons.
