If you're looking for an up-lifting challenge that will add to the quality of your life, I want to motivate, and inspire you onward to success! So come play hard, and safe, with us. Hook it out!

From the moment I walked in the door at EKP, I knew I’d found what I’d been searching for—a small personal gym with a big-time workout!  I had tried many different forms of exercise but always seemed to lose interest—not the case at EKP!  The terrific mix of Pilates, kickboxing and strength training gives you a complete workout every time and is adaptable to all levels of fitness.  Combine that with a variety of great teaching styles, and the result is no two classes are exactly alike.  Whether you are just starting out or have been coming to class for years, my goal is to motivate you to work hard, stay healthy and to have fun in the process.  If you’re looking for a fun, high-powered workout that will keep you coming back for more, give us a try….I’m certain you’ll be hooked!

I started instructing KB in Oct 2005. I am certified in Fitness and as a Nutritionist. There are a few things I find that help me get through the day. One is a great workout! I joined EKP in search of challenge and  motivation. I certainly found what I was looking for!!! I enjoyed it so much I became an instructor! I found my passion... and that is motivating people to feel better from the inside out. I enjoy training people of all fitness levels, encouraging them to reach their goals. So visualize your goals, and I will keep you on track with encouragement and motivation through every 'JAB, HOOK and KICK' on the way to your goal.

My name is Stephanie and I have been kickboxing with EKP for six years.  On top of the class being physically challenging, being an instructor allows me to help our members reach there goals both cardiovascular and physically.  There is nothing better then using the class as a way to release tension from your day and personal life.  I love to push my class with new ideas and keep them energized with good and current music. 

After years of searching for a workout that had it all - Total body fitness, Motivating, fun, and addictive - I found it at EKP. Not only did I find what I was looking for in terms of a physical workout, I found more - a routine that increased my self confidence. Now as an instructor, my goal is to bring the same intensity and enthusiasm as I do to my own workouts. My definition of a great class is one where everyone feeds off the energy of the instructor and the other class participants, enjoys the music and the combinations, and when it's over walk away sweating, spent, smiling and already looking forward to the next class. You don't have to search anymore - come in to EKP, try a class and discover the perfect workout.

My Philosophy is " live life like there is no tomorrow"! I show this in my classes with heart pumping enthusiasm. Classes are full of high energy cardio mixed with challenging calisthenics, and plyometric exercises. Helping each member reach their own goals is my personal challenge to myself that I strive for with the utmost tenacity. Look forward to "kickin it" with you!

Hi, my name is Tina. I like to teach my classes using upbeat techno music and lots of cardio. I also incorporate circuit training in addition to my Pilates for a total body workout. 

I love the idea of getting you addicted to your workout, expanding what you thought you could do and have a blast while doing it. I get amped up watching members rock-out on the bags! I have a loud, encouraging, tenacious drive to get you fit and help reach your goals.

I am a mother to three small children and I love the energy and strength this incredible workout gives me! I’ve been teaching group fitness classes at EKP since May  2005 and aim to keep my classes fun and challenging for all fitness levels. Our cardio kickboxing classes will help tone and sculpt your body head-to-toe while you have a great time doing it! Come to my class and I will help you achieve your fitness goals as well as discover your inner athlete!  

After spending 7 years in my 20s working in the fitness industry as an ACSM & ACE certified personal trainer and aerobics instructor – I finally found the perfect workout at EKP, there is truly nothing like it.  In fact, I drive all the way from Seattle to workout and teach here because I haven't found a better workout anywhere else.  My favorite part of each class is when I get everyone punching in sync to the beat of a great song – you can just feel the energy in the room explode as everyone pushes themselves to punch that bag as hard as they can to the beat!  Come to my class and I promise you'll have a blast punching and kicking to great music - and you'll burn a ton of calories doing it!

My love of kickboxing began in Chicago, IL in 2001 and I joined EKP in 2004.  My incentive to start the sport was to get a total body workout in one class.  Kickboxing challenges your body to work as a whole for head-to-toe fitness.  My strong passion for kickboxing lead me to become an instructor.   I love seeing clients transform as they improve coordination, strength, and endurance.  My goal is to be supportive and energetic.  I believe hard work coupled with encouragement will bring out the best in people.  In my classes, I want you to get a great workout, have a good time, and leave feeling successful.
