Meet Jillian Thaw

Jillian Thaw is a group fitness instructor(GFI) who grew up all over the Southeast, mainly calling Louisiana and Georgia home.

When she’s not at the gym, you can find her exploring Kansas City with her dog (she’s brand new! Any recs?), hiking and playing tennis, cooking, and traveling.

She has been an ACE-certified GFI for more than a decade and has additional certifications in Madd Dog Spinning and Insanity.

Jillian took a cycling class as an undergraduate in college, and it changed everything. Her workload became less stressful, she began sleeping better, and she found a supportive, fun community that made her happier and healthier.

She believes that fitness is as important mentally as it is physically and that our bodies are absolute rock stars—so let’s give them lots of love and fully enjoy what they are capable of.

Jillian’s Favorite Workout: Leg day, shoulders & anything sports
