What’s your class really like:

High-energy, hype and beat-driven playlists, and wildly welcoming. I build experiences that push you without punishing you—where form meets fun and every body belongs. Expect to find your rhythm in a sweaty celebration of strength, grit, and joy. We'll climb, hit the intervals, and always move with intention. Come as you are. I’ve got you. Helping others feel seen, powerful, and proud is the best. Can't wait to cheer you on, along with the Byklyn fam!

What’s your music vibe:

Obsessively curated playlists are my guilty pleasure. I might take you uphill by way of 80's rock, and then into downhill interval sprints on beat with Gaga and friends. In my class, you may sing, you may dance, and yes, you may ask me to share the playlist!

Favorite part about class:

I’m all about the end. Count on me for a good finale - the ‘Go Home’ energy that builds up until we all just cash out, floor it and hit the end. The juicy feeling of empowered as we build to that moment? It really is worth the squeeze, literally. Let's go!

Anything else you want us to know:

Fun facts: I'm a NASM-Certified Personal Trainer, 200hr Yoga Teacher, Kettlebell Coach, and a doctoral student at Vanderbilt (aka: forever nerd). I'm also a proud mom of two cool little humans, and a public educator of 14 years. I'm also a big fan of true crime, bookstores, cheese, and children (mine and yours), surfing, and succulents.

Hometown: Westbury, NY

What’s your class really like: An assortment of hills and drills set to music curated by one of the best awkward teen mix tape makers!

What’s your music vibe: Like a good antipasto, a little of everting.

Favorite part about class: Helping people achieve goals they thought were impossible.

Life beyond BYKlyn: Again, like an antipasto

Anything else you want us to know: I once appeared on the dating show “Change of Heart”

What’s your class really like: Challenging, supportive, unpretentious, body-positive, fun. Our time together is a break from the day; for 45 minutes my 5 rules are to work hard, work smart, have fun, like my music (and love me ;)

What’s your music vibe: I love music so I play almost everything, in any given week I may go from Beyonce to Burna Boy to Britney. My favorite genres are afrobeats, hip-hop, and pop.

Favorite part about class: Everyone is so CHILL. We all come to have a good time and sweat, and I love being the riders' cheerleader!

Life beyond BYKlyn: I'm VP of Marketing at pocstock, a media content platform changing narratives around people of color through stock photography, videography and illustration. In my (very limited) spare time, I enjoy being active and spending time with family and friends.

Anything else you want us to know: I am big on pop culture, so I like to sprinkle in a little bit of gossip in between hill climbs hahaha

What’s your class really like: Structured, high-energy, and rhythm-focused, with long hills and fast sprints cued to the music. I strive to teach to all levels and offer modifications for first-time riders and experienced cyclists alike; we’re all here to sweat, bust stress, build strength and endurance, and—most importantly—have fun, together!

What’s your music vibe: I try to keep things varied, with at least one proper throwback and one new song per ride, usually a mix of dance, pop, rock, and—let’s be honest—emo.

Favorite part about class: I love the final sprint—when you think you’ve put everything you’ve got into a ride, but then the beat drops, and you find the energy you need to pick up that pace or crank up that gear one last time.

Life beyond BYKlyn: I work in the media relations department of a major animal rights organization and love vegan food (tell me your restaurant recommendations!). I live in north Sunset Park (or “Greenwood Heights,” as realtors will tell you) with a great partner and one excellent cat.

Anything else you want us to know: I am a karaoke and piano bar fanatic. What I lack in skill I make up for in enthusiasm.

What’s your class really like:

I am most interested in using the PureByk ride to help you develop an increased ability to be “in” your body: to feel all of its sensations–emotional and physical–in the present moment. Be here now!

What’s your music vibe:

I believe that everything and everyone belongs, so there is pretty much no music that is off-limits. I handpick music that supports and validates, and tells an emotional story. I try to sequence songs that help us find the sweet spot of flow and transcendence. And beyond that lofty aspiration, I choose music inclusive of all decades and genres (and hopefully not overplayed)!

Favorite part about class:

There is nothing like being with a group of people moving our bodies together!

Life beyond BYKlyn:

Qualitative research. And I am an (unfortunate) Mets fan.
