It has been my dream to open up a physical studio in my hometown of Santa Cruz for the last decade, and when COVID began it was my opportunity to branch off on my own whether I was ready or not. I was able to create a space virtually for the community to stay connected through such challenging times. As my business took off I realized how ready I was to bring my dream to life and this event became the catalyst for taking that next step, finding the physical studio!

The passion and drive I have for this project is bigger than me, I am a small part of it and it’s more about the connection that can come. Without the community I would never have this opportunity to give back, to support and empower those I work with who will then do the same to the next generation.

I am 14 years clean and sober this year! A feat I never felt was possible and I have my community to thank. I always needed an outlet to express myself and luckily I found fitness. It became the guiding force for change and a space to build the connection I had been lacking from such an early age. My hope is to create a space where the community can come and celebrate their true authentic selves through fitness.

So here we come Santa Cruz, stay tuned for more exciting membership opportunities and opening dates!

Love from Carina
