She provides guidance and also encourages autonomy for her clients. Her coaching style is best described as supportive, sympathetic, beginner friendly, but will not hesitate to give you a push when she sees fit. 

 

Stella is passionate about helping clients work around pain or injuries. She does not believe in extreme measures whether in training or nutrition.

Edward came from a customer relations and business background. He had been a cycling enthusiast since 2013 but started leaning harder into the sport the year he turned 40, as well as becoming dedicated to regular strength training. Since 2021 the combination of regular cycling and strength training, along with overall healthier life choices allowed him to lose weight, lower his blood pressure and cholesterol, resting heart rate, and help to alleviate the lifelong lower back and shoulder pain/discomfort.

​

Edward values overall health and finds regular movement and smart nutrition choices as paramount to his own success. For him, strength training isn't necessarily about losing weight or "getting swole" - but rather it's about improving one's everyday life and overall health. He hopes to help and inspire you to find your own path to maintain and sustain a healthier lifestyle!

Rio is the General Meownager of the studio. She mostly works from home, but might make surprise visits to the gym just to keep everybody on their toes.

​

Rio enjoys singing loudly at 3am, magically transforming into a loaf in various locations around the house, and avoiding wet food at all costs. Formerly homeless and living along the Rio Hondo bike path (hence her name Rio), she has become an integral part of the Sustainabull Fitness team!

​

Although she can have a judgmental face at times, Rio has a warm heart and is always cheering you on!
