Sally began practicing Inyengar yoga in 1997, while a student at UCSD, finding much relief from the stress of graduate school. Upon returning to Reno in at the end of 1998, she began extensively practicing and studying Power and Ashtanga yoga. Sally has been teaching power yoga in the Reno area for the past five years. Sally holds a BA in Spanish Literature from the University of San Francisco and a MA in Latin American Studies from UCSD. Sally enjoys traveling and spending time in the great outdoors during her free time.
Keri (RYT-200) started practicing yoga after injuring her back in a motorcycle accident. She began taking Iyengar Yoga with her mentor Nelda McGee and soon moved on to Power and Ashtanga Yoga. Keri completed her 200 hour training under Doug Swenson, renowned Ashtangi and creator of Sadhana Yoga Chi. Additionally, she has attended workshops and classes in Acroyoga, The Rocket Series, Core Power, Anusara, and Sivananda. Keri has been teaching since 2005 and enjoys an athletic practice with an emphasis on flow, prana, and maintaining a sense of humor as yoga has brought great joy to her life.
Kelly received her Bachelor of Arts from the University of Nevada Reno in 1999 and works as the Corporate Sales Manager for the Eldorado Hotel Casino. She has always had a passion for fitness she inherited from her father. She played competitive soccer for four years, ran track, cross country and still competes in competitive distance runs. Kelly received her certification from Madd Dog Athletics to teach spin in 2006. In her spare time, Kelly and her husband John enjoy trail running with their dogs, playing soccer, mountain biking and snow boarding together. Kelly enjoys sharing her enthusiasm for fitness and encouraging others to be healthy.
Lora Rose began a dedicated yoga practice in 2004. Her yoga mat has been there by her side no matter what -- good, bad, and indifferent. Yoga never lets her down. In 2007, she began studying Tibetan Buddhism and Heart Yoga with Sarah Class and others who follow the teachings of Geshe Michael Roach and Lama Christy McNally. Her interpretation of yoga is inspired by her ardent admiration of other ACHIEVE Fitness instructors including Victoria Randlett, Karen Carabio, Sally Easdon, and Keri Huddleston. She is often found practicing at Achieve and usually has her mom, Lillian, practicing with her. Lora Rose grew up in Truckee, California, and holds a master's degree in geography from California State University, Chico. She works in water conservation and community outreach.
Melissa started teaching fitness classes in 1996. She figured she wasn't getting any younger, so why not now? Her primary certification is through AFAA and Pilates certification through the Pilates Coach. She then started teaching step classes and moved on to kickboxing after falling in love with it in 1998. Melissa began teaching Pilates classes about 4 years ago and it has become her new passion. In addition to all her active teaching, she loves skiing, hiking, mountain bike riding, and is now learning to whitewater kayak.
