Meet TEAM RISE
A high-energy team of instructors coach the wide variety of classes each day starting at 5am. Team RISE is led by owner Katelyn Kaese, who was raised in Glen Ellyn and returned to town 6 years ago to raise her own family here. Katelyn has cultivated a team of women who bring their individual passions of fitness to their unique classes where you will certainly feel their authentic love for what they do, no matter which class you attend. Team Rise includes women in their 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s, some having taught fitness for decades and others who are clients-turned instructors who began their coaching careers at Rise. What they all have in common is their desire to teach clients that there is a way for everyone to RISE in their fitness.
This summer, in addition to spending time in the new Rise Wheaton Studio, the Rise coaches are taking advantage of the warm weather, getting out for bike rides on the prairie path and long walks. (Interested in a combo of the two – try one of our outdoor classes on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday mornings!)
While Team Rise is committed to their own fitness and yours year-round, they also know how to enjoy a summertime indulgence. Here’s how they might be applying the 80/20 rule this summer.
