Our Teachers

Kayla Straub (they/them)

RYT-200, Barre, Burn

Kayla (they/them) aims to create an inclusive space where all bodies, genders, ages and abilities can feel safe to explore their connection with their body. Their classes feature layering transitions, feel-good music, and pressure-free coaching to help you find your deepest connection: this space is safe for you to tune in and try something new.

Kayla received their RYT-200hr from Zen Yoga Garage in 2023, their CFSC from Mike Boyle in 2017, and served as the Founding Trainer for The Barre Code, a national empowerment-centering franchise that recently merged with Barre3, for over a decade. They have had the honor of teaching thousands of folks movement at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado between 2017 and 2019, and they are the former three-time champion of the Chicago League of Lady Arm Wrestlers.

Kayla loves therapy, her dog, Tarot, and connecting with nature in their home state of Alaska.
