Meet the HYPE Crew!
Shauna
Owner + Spin Instructor
What gets you hyped?
I love upbeat music with some edge. You’ll hear hip hop and dance pop tracks from the ‘90s to the 2010s, some country, definitely some rock, and I love a good remix. In my classes, I want you to get lost in the music and feel like you’re at a crazy, fun dance party!
What has fitness meant for you in your life?
For me, fitness is as much about mental health as it is about physical health. It’s how I relieve stress, lower anxiety and build confidence. I believe that the positive energy you build during a workout stays with you long afterward and impacts every area of your life.
Jaz
Owner + Jaz-of-All-Trades
What gets you hyped?
My main job at HYPE is making sure the bikes and equipment are all well-maintained and running smoothly, but you might see me at the front desk from time-to-time as well.
What keeps you dedicated to a healthy lifestyle?
Staying active and fit makes me feel good in general and gives me more energy. Plus, fitness keeps me young. I enjoy things like outdoor sports and travel, and I want to be in shape so I can do these things for a long time.
Carmen
Studio Manager + Lead Spin Instructor
What gets you hyped?
Rock, punk, beat drops and the odd country hit! You can find a playlist that likely resembles a mixed CD from the early 2000s when you spin with me! I’ll bring the party, complete with a little karaoke! My goal is to make you smile and enjoy the experience!
What's something people may be surprised to find out about you?
I train horses and compete in barrel racing. My horses keep me dedicated to a healthy lifestyle. I know I need to be fit and strong to ride racehorses at a competitive level!
Jami
Lead Spin Instructor
What gets you hyped?
My classes are all about having fun and not taking ourselves too seriously. I plan on always providing a safe space where we can all mess up! Be prepared to hear music from any and all genres with a large focus on rock of all ages. Do not be surprised when you hear Cardi and Metallica in the same playlist!
What has fitness meant for you in your life?
I never was really into fitness until I had my second child. Feeling down about my body and wanting to get in shape I joined a group fitness class and the gym. It soon became a way to celebrate what my body was capable of. I have a long way to come on my body positive journey, but everyday fitness gets me one step closer to falling in love with myself. I dream of being a leader in the fitness community no matter my size and I truly believe I take a step closer to that goal every time I put on that mic!

What has fitness meant for you in your life?
Fitness is such a big part of my life. It is my therapy, my energy release, my joy, my passion, and my opportunity to push past my fears and boundaries to become a better version of me. Fitness is truly my everything and I hope to bring this feeling into your life, too!

Physical activity has always been part of my life and my hope is to help others find their own way of introducing regular physical activity into their lives.
