Brittnee & Bri (founder of AC) are sisters. As Brittnee would say, she was always the annoying little sister no one wanted around... that quickly changed into an everlasting friendship with Bri, her friends, and AC. Brittnee has been helping with AC from the very start... from giving advice to Bri on the vision of AC to executing tasks to help make the business run smoother. She has always had her foot in the door but in March of 2021 things changed, she became the Chief Of Staff, and has been loving her AC work ever since! Brittnee helps with everything behind the scenes so that the entire ATHLEISURE COLLECTIVE can run smoothly.

Carly-Ann Dell
Strength & Reformer Pilates Coach
Carly-Ann is a health and wellness enthusiast who dropped out of grad school to travel the world and discover her real passion and desire for helping others. Movement was always a part of her life through sports and then it slowly grew into a passion in her adult years. She first started as a group fitness instructor while working for the international resort company called Club Med. After three years of traveling and teaching fun fitness classes all over the world, Carly moved home and dove into her own personal health and fitness journey. She fell in love with strength training and ended up competing in bodybuilding. Through the process of competing she educated herself further and obtained a few certifications that resulted in her starting her own online personal training business. For the last 7 years, Carly has built an online presence and done all types of coaching from 1:1 to group coaching — and she has loved it!
In 2020, Carly became a mama to her first son and then in 2022 they added another sweet boy to their family. Since becoming a mom her journey and perspective around health and fitness has evolved and expanded. Carly’s focus is more around health and wellness versus health and fitness. Her desire to move her body and feel strong has a new meaning and purpose. Over the last four years of adding "mama" as a title, she has craved community and impact — and AC has been the perfect fit to lean into these aspects of my life! Carly met the AC Founder, Bri, in college — Bri is actually Carly’s little sis in their sorority — it’s pretty amazing how life is bringing them back together at AC, while they have stay connected through all the years! Carly is excited to be on this journey with Bri, the AC Team, and the AC Family!
Aside from the health and wellness side of Carly’s life, she is married to the most incredible man that she met while traveling! In the summers, Carly and her family spend as much time as possible out on the lake doing everything from boating to swimming to paddle boarding. In the winters, they try and find their way to the mountains to ski and snowboard — this past winter, they started their oldest in community sports which has been so fun for Carly to be a parent on the other side of something that was so influential to her journey. Carly-Ann also runs an impactful company called Brooklyn Grace which is an apparel company that she finds so much joy with connecting with that community!
Carly hopes to bring an encouraging and motivating energy to the AC Family while also growing and expanding on her own journey! She is excited to help inspire members to show up for themselves and to continue to push and challenge themselves to be the best version of themselves! Carly say, “our journeys can feel hard at times but with the love and support for a community, I hope it adds empowerment to their goals and desires!”

Andrea’s interest in fitness began as an extension of her training in ballet and jazz dance back in high school. She began teaching high impact aerobics and step along with children’s dance in Michigan before embarking upon a 15 year career performing internationally as a bellydancer.
After moving to Chicago, she and a partner opened a dance studio and helped many aspiring bellydancers launch their own careers. During her final 6 months on stage, she sustained a significant back injury, became engaged, and realized that the next chapter of her life was imminent.
She joined her parents, brother, and sister-in-law in relocating to Seattle along with her now husband, his 3 children, and their mother.
Andrea began teaching Barre while studying to become a Physical Therapy Assistant at PIMA, and the deeper understanding of anatomy and kinesiology coupled with the practice of stability exercise not only helped her to rehab her own injuries, but underscored her profound belief in the healing power of movement.
While working as a PTA in an outpatient orthopedic setting, a friend and mentor introduced her to Craniosacral Therapy and she became certified through the prestigious Bastyr University. Through the study of Craniosacral Therapy, Andrea has been able to pursue her interests in natural healing and bridge the gap between the physical and energetic.

Krista Kelly
Cycle & Barre Instructor
Krista’s journey with Athleisure Collective started as a member in 2022 with a weekly cycle class. Being new to cycling, it was an adjustment that quickly turned into a healthy obsession! One cycle class a week turned into two or more, turning into branching out and trying new classes, and loving every one of them. Discovering a love for group fitness naturally turned into group fitness instructing for Krista. Where Krista really finds her fitness joys is in choreographed classes. So, expect to be moving to the beat of the music in her cycle and barre classes!
Krista is a mom to two little girls, married to her high school sweetheart, and spends her spare time in her garden and golfing with her family. She is happiest when sitting around the dinner table with the ones she loves.
Encouraging and teaching her class participants and especially her daughters to have a positive self image and self love, is one of Krista’s biggest goals that she will accomplish by leading by example.
Krista firmly believes in treating and rewarding yourself for life’s biggest and smallest accomplishments. Whether that’s a new item from AC’s shop, a smoothie after class, or a pat on the back, she loves celebrating the daily movement, the motivation, and determination. So be proud and treat yourself!

Abby has always been an active person. She grew up playing several different sports but found her happy place in the middle of a volleyball court. She played at a very competitive level and ended up going to the Junior Olympics 2 years in a row. Sadly, she was in an incredibly bad car accident. She had to rehabilitate and get back to a place where she could be active again. She gained her strength and was able to go on to play volleyball in college, but once again she had to have another surgery because of the prior accident. Once she rehabilitated from that, she ended up getting in another bad accident and had to have several surgeries. The reason she likes to share this is because it is a big part of her story, who she is, and she helps by sharing it she can inspire someone else that they can get through hard things.

Mark Riggs
Chef & Nutrition AC ON DEMAND Coach
Mark Riggs, FITTRAX Founder & Chef, has been in the hospitality industry since the age of 15 starting as a dishwasher and has found his love and passion for food, culture, and creativity all while learning from those around him. His travels have led him all over from Seattle to Chicago and even down into South America where he immersed himself in many different cultures and learned about diverse cooking styles. Mark has had the opportunity of collaborating with some of Seattle’s premier chefs.
Mark grew up playing all types of sports (baseball, soccer, football, wrestling & rugby) as a kid growing up with his 3 brothers and has continued his passion for an active lifestyle to this day. With his busy life working in the hospitality industry and staying active, finding the time to eat properly with healthy nutritious meals was always a struggle. Spending the time it took to plan, prep, cook and enjoy was not always convenient and meal prep became a second job/ lifestyle in itself. Light bulb - FITTRAX.
Now Mark and his team have the opportunity to create exclusive recipes for customers every week, combining classic techniques with healthy and exciting ingredients full of flavors.
Mark wanted to create a system that combined organic, healthy, delicious food that was cooked fresh, with convenience and a reasonable price, so he decided he was going to have to create it himself and do whatever it takes to make this dream come to life. FITTRAX was created.
You can find Mark on Instagram @fittraxmeals and on the FITTRAX site.
