Hey, I'm Kaighla

Welcome to the team

I've always believed in the power of movement- but for a long time, I didn't realize the true impact. As a former athlete, I was no stranger to training. I knew how to lift, push my body, and how to compete- but after high school, I lost my way. The structure and identity that sports had given me disappeared, and I found myself searching for something more.

​

In 2012, I made a commitment to rebuild myself-mind, body and spirit but it wasn't until 2018, when I reluctantly walked into a group fitness class, that I truly understood what movement could do. The music, the energy, the collective strength in that room- it shook me to my core. In the middle of all of it, I cried. For the first time in a long time I felt seen, heard and empowered.

​

That moment changed everything.

​

I realized fitness wasn't just about lifting weights or chasing aesthetics- it was about connection, belonging, and finding strength beyond the physical. It was about creating a space where people feel safe to show up exactly as they are, to push past their limits and to grow- together.

​

We are stronger together.
