EMMA KRNACIK

CLASS INSTRUCTOR 

​

WHERE ARE YOU FROM? 

I mostly grew up in southern Oregon, but I moved to Portland because I love the community and all of the wonderful access to the outdoors.

​

WHAT MAKES YOUR CLASS SO AWESOME?

I aim to bring a variety of different movements to give folks the opportunity to learn how they enjoy moving their body.

​

WHAT IS YOUR TEACHING STYLE?

Encouraging and relaxed. 

 

WHAT'S THAT EXTRA SPECIAL SAUCE YOU POUR ON ALL OF YOUR CLASSES!?Good music!

​

IS THERE A SPECIFIC MOMENT THAT GOT YOU INTO FITNESS? GUSH ABOUT IT PLEASE!

 I played sports my whole life, and specifically transitioning away from rugby felt hard for me. I needed a new athletic hobby so I started going to a strength and conditioning gym where I found myself really enjoying throwing heavy barbells around.

​

WHEN YOU'RE NOT FITNESSING, WHAT ARE YOU UP TO?

I love being outside with my dog and sometimes my cat! I'm also an engineer who enjoys puzzles, video games, a good book and DIY projects.

​

WHEN YOU'RE FEELING DOWN, WHAT'S ONE THING YOU SAY TO YOURSELF TO GET YOU GOING?

I usually plan to spend time in a supportive social group or with friends, community makes me happy.
