Emilyn

Yoga
"Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does." - William James

An admiration for the human body's resilience paired with a love for wellness and fitness led Emilyn to study Biomedical Sciences and explore how to further help her patients, peers, and community through yoga's breath and movement. Through teaching yoga, Emilyn hopes that people are able to care for themselves and build the resilience to in turn help others!

Kate

Cycle
"Everything is a win when the goal is to experience"

I played sports in high school, but throughout college and those first few post-grad years, I felt like I had lost that athletic part of myself. Craving movement and the need to improve my overall health and wellbeing, I gave Vault a try and the rest is history! Vault helped heal my relationship with fitness, has pushed me into becoming a better, stronger version of myself, and has led me to doing something I once never thought possible- instructing! In my class, you are welcome to come as you are, take up space, and find joy in movement.

What I love about rochester
Being a bills fan, the incredible coffee scene, Summer festivals, and being around friends and family.

Taylor

Strength
"Be where your feet are."

Missing the structure of competitive sports and the feeling of being a part of a team following the conclusion of her collegiate lacrosse career, Taylor fell in love with group fitness. After stumbling into Vault back in 2020, she immediately felt at home. After 4 years of being a member of this amazing community and being inspired by this team, Taylor took the leap to become a boxing instructor and most recently expanded her modality teaching to include strength classes! Always pushing you to be the best version of you, check out her classes where you'll find yourself releasing some stress, reaching new potentials and having some fun!

Abby

Cycle
“Your only limit is you”

Abby discovered spin in college and was hooked from day one! Through the chaos of hospital shifts as a nurse, spin became her escape and her passion. Now, after six years in the saddle, she’s beyond excited to be leading from the podium! Get ready for electric vibes, killer choreography, and EDM head-bangers to keep you motivated. Abby’s classes are all about challenging yourself and enjoying every minute of the ride. When she isn’t at Vault, you can catch her reading, trying new coffee shops, or hiking.

Stephanie

Owner
"He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life." -Mohammad Ali

The City of Rochester has such an amazing history, and, through the efforts of many, is being reborn with spirit, strength and attitude.  My vision was to create an urban, contemporary fitness studio for our unique community, something that Downtown has never seen before. From the best instructors in town, the lighting and sound systems, the lockers, showers and amenities, the unique art on the walls and the food in the grab and go fridge...the Vault experience is really special.

We focus on our member community as well as supporting our local business community to contribute to the growth of Rochester.

“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen.” Brene Brown

Breanna played many sports growing up beginning with karate and gymnastics and then soccer, basketball, and softball. From youth sports, she learned of only two outcomes: winning or losing. Cycling and group fitness has shown her that there is so much more to fitness including moving in ways that make us feel good and being a part of a supportive community. Breanna has always loved music and is grateful to have found a way to use music to make us move, feel powerful, and give us the space to be our wildest, most authentic selves.

What I love about rochester
The breweries (especially IPAs), the outstanding food, and the live music.

Autumn

Yoga
"Let the beauty of what you love be what you do." - Rumi

Autumn has always enjoyed being active, but found her passion in yoga. Time and again she has found the best self-care is stepping onto her mat to “work in” as much as she steps onto it to work out. As an instructor, Autumn’s goal is to hold space for the VAULT community to feel supported showing up as they are to breathe and move in a way that feels empowering and purposeful. Outside the studio, you'll find Autumn ordering an iced chai latté, hanging out with friends, or soaking up sunshine/snuggled inside with (most likely) a thrilling mystery novel.

Terrence

Box, Strength
"A true champion can adapt to anything" - Floyd "Money" Mayweather

Terrence’s love for sports and fitness comes from his father and brother, Travis. Growing up, he remembers his family talking boxing; mainly Mike Tyson.  After seeing one of Tyson’s fights, he was hooked!  Travis was the driving force for his involvement in track, baseball and football, bringing out Terrence’s competitive side.  Utilizing his talent for sports, he earned himself a ticket to college and now gives back to the younger community by coaching track and football, pushing his athletes to not only be great competitors, but great students and great people.

"What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make." - Jane Goodall

Maddie played competitive sports her entire life and never considered fitness outside of that. When her college soccer career finished, she felt she had lost her sense of purpose for training and fitness. At VAULT Maddie found her new team and fitness community. After her first ride, she knew she had found her new purpose. For Maddie, cycling is a release mentally, physically and emotionally. It provides the opportunity to push her limits, set goals and grow.

Christine (CC)

Cycle, Box, Strength
"Your body can stand almost anything. It's your mind that you have to convince."

After CC stopped playing soccer she had to learn how to work out on her own. Thats when she fell in love with fitness/training.  CC's ultimate goal is to make fitness more of a career than a hobby. Fitness for CC has become her way of staying healthy physically and mentally. Getting a good workout in is a great way to clear your mind and devote some time to yourself! When not at work or Vault you can find CC outside hiking, kayaking, skiing and traveling!

She brings her competitive edge to her clients and encourages them to push themselves to be the best versions of themselves. She is a firm believer in the mind-body connection; each of her workouts gives clients the perfect dose of intensity and inspiration. Her enthusiasm for life is contagious and she is committed to helping her community live healthier, happier lives

Chandler

Cycle, Sculpt
"If it doesn't challenge you, it won't change you."

Comin in hot from Long Island, Chandler fell in love with Rochester after graduating from SUNY Geneseo. If you're searching for that electric energy and some good hair- flipping beat drops, Chandler's classes are the way to go. Get ready to tap into a stronger version of yourself and discover potential you never knew you had with her spunky, high intensity classes that are nothing short of rewarding. When Chandler isn't at the studio you can likely find her attending concerts, enjoying a marg at Dorado, traveling or sipping a cappuccino at her favorite local coffee shop, Fuego.

Cycle, Strength, Sculpt
"Trust your magic."

Michelle immediately fell in love with group fitness classes when her hockey career ended after college, and began teaching cycle in 2019. Since then, she has expanded into additional modalities beyond the cycle studio and loves the opportunity to help others diversify their class routines! In Michelle’s class you can expect big energy & big beat drops paired with a little Boston attitude. Come ready to work hard, have some laughs, and trust your magic!

Mackenzie

Cycle
It’s a great day to have a great day.

Originally from Poughkeepsie, NY, Mackenzie graduated from the University of Buffalo. Mackenzie used to view working out as a punishment, until she discovered Rhythm Cycling!  She took her first class her senior year of college and it was "love at first ride!" Ever since that first class, cycling has become a major part of her life and now views working out as a celebration of all that your body can do for you. When not in a cycle class you can find Mackenzie either at Chick-fil-A or watching the Bills!

Movement has always been a huge part of my life, and as a physical therapist I’m passionate about helping people appreciate what their bodies are capable of.

“You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take”

Growing up as a dancer, movement has always been a very important part of my life for my physical and emotional well being. After undergoing 2 hip surgeries at 19, I started my group fitness journey after recovery in 2021 and immediately fell in love. Cycling feels to me like we are dancing on the bike and I knew after my first few classes that instructing was something I was interested in! In my class you can expect fun, upbeat music that will make you want to dance like no one is watching!
