 Audra is a Powell native, former University of Tennessee Head Majorette, personal trainer, and group fitness instructor who specializes in mixing elements of light weight lifting, Pilates, Barre, and classic toning moves all into one class—which stems from her background in baton, dance, years of having her own personal trainer from the University of Tennessee, and being a boy-mom. She is the creator of our Sculpt&Burn class. Everyone loves the class and highly recommends it! 

 Chasitey is a full time working mother of 4, with children ranging from 14 years to 2 months old. After the birth of her second child she became more focused on her health and fitness goals.
