FELICIA ROSE
STRENGTH & BARRE INSTRUCTOR
Hi, I’m Felicia! I’m a wife, mom, and proud grandma who knows firsthand that taking care of yourself isn’t a luxury-it’s what gives you the energy to show up for the people and roles you love most. Fitness has been a part of my life since I was a teenager, and over the years I’ve experienced its benefits far beyond the physical. Movement has strengthened my body, cleared my mind, restored my confidence, and even helped me recover from past injuries through intentional barre and strength training.
As a certified barre instructor and certified strength instructor, my passion is helping women discover that fitness isn’t about perfection or keeping up with everyone else. It’s about moving with purpose, building strength from the inside out, and creating a body that supports the life you want to live. Whether you’re stepping into the studio for the first time or you’ve been moving with us for years, my goal is to help you feel stronger, more capable, and more confident every time you walk through the door. I’m so grateful you’re here, and I can’t wait to move with you.
MAIA PHILLIPOU
YOGA & BARRE INSTRUCTOR
Hi! My name is Maia, and I teach yoga and barre!! While I’ve only been teaching yoga and barre for a little while, I’ve been teaching dance for years, focusing on stretching and mindful movement with everyone from young kids to adults. I’ve taught a Vinyasa class before and am super excited to welcome all levels to my yoga classes! I love connecting breath with movement, and I’m passionate about how yoga can help reduce pain, improve balance, and much more. I could go on and on, honestly – feel free to ask me anything!
Fitness has had such a huge, positive impact on both my mental and physical health, and I can’t wait to share that with others. I’m certified in Hatha and Vinyasa yoga, but I also love incorporating stretches from dance and poses that really target and strengthen the core. I’m looking forward to seeing you on the mat and guiding you on your yoga journey.
JODI
YOGA INSTRUCTOR
Yoga found me 16 years ago, during a time when my body was asking for something different and I finally chose to listen. One early morning, I walked into a local studio for a class that I almost talked myself out of and everything shifted. I left feeling clearer, stronger, and more connected that I had in years, and I knew I wanted to keep giving my body that kind of care.
Since then, I have explored countless styles, taken specialized courses, and learned under a teacher who helped me grow not only in body awareness, but in confidence as a woman. I have my 200-hour certification, but I will always be a lifelong student of this practice. I believe every-BODY deserves yoga, and yoga is truly for Every-BODY. through practice, we learn to shed self-doubt, reconnect with our strength, and meet ourselves with understanding and compassion. My intention is to create a space where you feel welcomed, supported, and empowered to grow at your own pace exactly as you are.
