KIN. COACH RYAN

Ryan is a Certified Clinical Exercise Physiologist who uses exercise as medicine, helping people build stronger, more resilient, and more capable bodies, including those living with chronic health conditions. His own interest in physical activity was sparked by his introduction to squash as a teen. After a string of injuries forced him to take a break from the sport, he decided to pursue a degree in Kinesiology to better understand injury recovery, chronic pain, and how exercise can help people stay active for life.

Ryan's breadth of experience includes older adult fitness, spinal cord injury exercise, youth multi-sport and squash coaching, as well as his own background in cycling, salsa, squash, and frisbee. He blends traditional strength and conditioning with play, balance, stability, motor coordination, and sport-specific development to help people build movement capacity from the ground up.

To Ryan, exercise isn't a means to an end, but an opportunity to challenge yourself, connect with like-minded people, and move the way our bodies were designed to move. Whether it's heading out for an unplanned hike, keeping up with your kids or grandkids at the playground, or excelling in the activity of your choosing, Ryan believes exercise gives us the freedom to experience everything life has to offer, all while shaking those salsa hips.
