Ryan and Sam are the owners and founders of Crossroads Fitness Studio and Boutique.
They have of 3 kids, Kenzli (13), Jasper (9) and Brylan (6).
They decided, after much prayer and guidance, and 6 years of leading classes, that it was time to open their own fitness studio instead of being in multiple locations through town. Being centrally located opened up class times and styles to better serve their clients. So with the help of family and friends Crossroads Fitness was born! They bought an old excavating company garage on Emory Road and renovated it into a beautiful studio. Then they enlisted the expertise of fabulous instructors to come along side them and build the business in their hometown.
They are so thankful and grateful for the members that trust Crossroads to walk, dance, sweat, scream, cry and celebrate them in their fitness journey. Your trust and success mean everything to them.
7 years ago after Jasper was born Sam decided to go to a Zumba class at her church and fell in love with this style of exercise. She was licensed 2 months later and has been teaching ever since. Through the years she has also gotten licensed in Zumba Gold, Zumba Step, Zumba Sentao, Zumba Toning, Strong by Zumba, and Aqua Zumba. The different formats of Zumba work your muscles in different and challenging ways to help you accomplish your goals and achieve overall health, creating strong, lean muscles. She is also certified in group fitness through AFAA and is a certified Barre Instructor through Barre Above.
Ryan didn't exactly love all the dancing involved in Zumba but when Strong by Zumba (now called Strong Nation) came out he knew it was something he would enjoy. It is a mix of high intensity intervals and bootcamp style moves. He had always enjoyed Insanity and P90X and Strong by Zumba is all that but driven by great music to motivate you to push yourself harder than you thought was possible. Trust us when we say there is no dancing involved! Ryan and Sam teach Strong by Zumba together so we can offer modifications and switch outs to help you get the best workout for you.
