EMMA KRNACIK
(She/Her)

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.
