My name is Becky and I am the gym manager here at Custom Fitness. My ongoing quest to be physically fit and healthy began 20 years ago. Personal weight training and group fitness classes have helped me to continue to reach my goals and given me the support I need to stay focused on the journey. Being healthy and fit is a choice we all have the freedom to make. You just need to make it.
Spinning has been a big part of my life for the past 5 years, and I have seen and felt first-hand the effects of indoor cycling. I was introduced to Spinning in 2012 at Custom Fitness when I was looking for a low impact cardio exercise that would help me in recovering from a knee injury. After Spinning helped me fully recover from my injury, I realized I not only wanted to participate in class, I wanted to become an Instructor–I received my Mad Dogg Spinning Certification in April, 2014. I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to share my passion for Spinning through teaching. No judgments or expectations will be present in my classes, only a willingness to participate and to have fun! If you’re looking for a butt-kicking workout that increasing your strength and endurance, as well as decreasing your body fat, come on in and join us… I look forward to Spinning with YOU!

Meet Sydney….our member turned instructor!!!
🙋🏻♀️“Hi my name is Sydney Murauskas and I attend SUNY Plattsburgh. I am a senior in college and I have been teaching Zumba at my school since my freshman year. I love Zumba because it doesn’t always feel like a workout. It’s a fun way to express yourself while getting that full body workout. It targets all your muscles while getting your body moving to the music. From popular hip hop music to the most popular Spanish salsa music, it’s a great way to possibly take that step out of your comfort zone!” 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻

My name is Alysha and I’ve been a part of the Custom Fit Family for almost two years now. I love participating in the group fitness classes. They help keep me on track and motivated! I work at the Saratoga Hospital and I am going to school to get my nursing degree. In my free time I like to spend time with family and friends. I enjoy experiencing new fun things and going on adventures!
I found yoga, or yoga found me, when I was stumbling through a broken body and spirit. Coming from a strong athletic background, nursing a few ortho mishaps was the best thing I never expected. While learning to practice patience with my active mind and resting joints, I discovered a yoga video from Dylan Werner and I was HOOKED. I wandered into Kayla’s newly opened studio and a yoga desire bloomed into an instructor certification. I later would be lucky enough to learn from Dylan, my first inspiration, in two separate training locations. Dylan tears down the “yoga is only stretching” walls and promotes a whole-body, practical use practice. I am overwhelmed with gratitude to pass on my, always learning, knowledge to members, friends, and family. Thank you, for the opportunity and as always, may all beings be happy and free!! ❤”
Join Heather on Wednesday’s at 6:30 pm and be on the lookout for other yoga inspired pop-up classes!
