Hi! My name is Mike McLean. I am one of the cycling instructors here at Grande Ronde Fitness. I started attending spin classes in 2006 at Grande Ronde Fitness and have been doing it very regularly since that time. I began filling in for instructors that came and went at the gym. I finally accepted a full time role as indoor cycling instructor several years ago. I enjoy riding spin bikes as a fitness method due to the low impact it has on your joints and the great aerobic impact on your body. I currently have spin classes on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 5:30pm. If you want a great workout and some company while you do it, come on in and have a great ride.

My name is Justin Hernandez. I have immersed myself in strength and conditioning culture since the age of 10. I was fortunate enough to have two uncles who played Division I collegiate football and a grandfather who played in the NFL. They were pinnacle in setting a high standard and paving my path to a successful collegiate career. I played Division I football for the University of Idaho and was awarded Western Athletic Conference Player of the week. I transferred to Eastern Oregon University my junior season and completed my collegiate career as a Mountie. During my time at EOU, I set multiple school records; I was chosen by three separate associations as an All American and concluded my academic career as with an All-Conference Selection. My studies allowed me to master and break down the movements of athletes and specific sport demands. During my academic career, I created and implemented a Sport-Specific Training Evaluation System. Most Sport Performance Training Programs generally have a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to creating and implementing a training system for an athlete. Many trainers will create a unilateral approach towards workouts that attempts to satisfy the general needs for a variety of sports and all athletes. However, each sport has specific demands and requirements that need to specifically trained and acquired. Additionally, every athlete is different and these individual differences need to be taken into account when developing a training program. I create Training Programs for athletes based on sport, gender, age, muscle & skeletal imbalances, flexibility, core stability, joint mobility and biomechanics deficiencies. I specialize in sport performance, human performance and as a speed specialist. I would love the opportunity to provide a specific training program for you, your children and your family.

My name is Christine Dixon. I am the Zumba, Zumba Toning, STRONG Nation, Zumba Gold, and Kickboxing Instructor! I'm also the Group Fit Coordinator! I'm your typical jack of all trades in the fitness world. I have been with GRFC since 2010. 11 years in this industry and solely with GRFC! Unlike most instructors I've had big fluctuations with weight. However, through instructing and taking our classes I've been able to lose the weight and hit goals every time I set out to do so. Our classes are top notch! 2020 was a rough year but I took the blessing in disguise to relax and leave the gym setting to get some R&R. In doing so I realized more than ever that the GRFC is home to me! I have missed it and am ready to get back at it for another 11 years! Right now I teach Zumba on Mondays nights at 5:30pm and STRONG Nation on wednesday nights at 5:30pm as well! The more participation we have the more classes will become available. My job is to create a fun space and give you all my great energy! Good vibes only in fitness is my mantra!! You will find you work harder the more fun you have. We have a few exciting things coming up in all areas of the gym within the next couple of months and on the group fitness side of the gym as well. Be ready for an INCREDIBLE 2021 because we're bringing it this year!! Always bring a mat, a towel (for that glow you'll get), and water!! See you in class!!!!
