Meet Our Team
Our instructors bring a plethora of knowledge and passion for their people and their craft! Each instructor brings a unique spin to their classes, with individual styles in drills, climbs, sprints, and music. One factor our instructors all have in common: they care. They care that everyone has a positive experience, leaves class feeling better than when they came in, and that U&S is a welcoming, empowering and invigorating environment.
A big part of the heart and sōl of U&S is our sōl crew! Our wonderful sōl crew members are always buzzing around the studio to make sure you have what you need for your class, answer any questions, and keep the energy high!
