Meet the Team
The Team Behind the Community
Rise4 was built on the belief that fitness should be thoughtful, functional, and rooted in community. From the beginning, the goal wasn’t just to create a place to train, but a place people feel supported, challenged, and excited to return to.
The vision began with Sam and Corry, the original co-founders, whose shared passion for movement, education, and intentional business shaped the foundation of Rise4. As the community grew, Shannon and Alex joined the leadership team, bringing physical therapy and recovery expertise to ensure long-term movement health was a core pillar. Ashley later joined, helping expand and support the growing Rise4 community.
In November 2024, Chris and Brecca became co-owners of Rise4 Holladay, strengthening local leadership while staying true to Rise4’s values and culture.
What sets Rise4 apart is how hands-on this team is. You’ll see the leaders coaching classes, working the front desk, folding towels, and catching up with members long after class ends. Together, they continue building a community-first gym where training is intentional and people come first.
