Meet Ryleigh.
Ryleigh was born and raised in the Shoals area and grew up with a deep appreciation for the town and the people that live in it. She graduated from Muscle Shoals High School in 2017, then went on to obtain her Bachelor’s in Biomedical Sciences from Auburn University and will graduate with her Doctorate of Pharmacy from there in May of 2024. After living in Auburn for six years, Ryleigh relocated back home to the Shoals area where she looks forward to continuing to invest in the community that has invested so much into her over the years.
Fitness was never something Ryleigh found interesting- until she was invited to a spin class by a close friend. She was immediately drawn to the dark room and the loud music, but eventually found it to be a habit that helped to shape her into the person she wanted to be. The commitment it took to show up to classes and the intentionality required to engage for 45 minutes at a time was causing other areas of her life to flourish- relationships, mentality, and sleep to name a few.
In Ryleigh’s class, you can expect to be given the opportunity to have fun while pushing past the limits you may perceive to be in place. By the end of class, she hopes to prove that hard work and passion can, in fact, coexist with delight. She considers fun to be a core value and loves to invite others into the uplifting atmosphere she creates!
