We are so happy to have Kate Kleinschmidt joining our team as a Strides 360 instructor. Kate has been a member of Fit4Mom North Metro Denver since July 2021 when she joined Run Club+. You have also seen her beautiful smile at Body Boost and Stroller Strides. Read on to learn a little more about Kate!

Tell us a little bit about yourself.

I'm originally from the east coast (Philly), went to college in Maryland (Go Terps!) and then made some stops in DC and California on our way to Colorado. I've done 2 ironman and 7 half-ironman triathlons -- and I spent 8 years in Marching Bands throughout high school and college. My husband and I both played the saxophone , and that's how we met!

How long have you been attending Fit4Mom classes?

I started with Run Club+ in July 2021, and then added Body Well / Boost a few months later.

What is your favorite part of motherhood?

I love seeing my two kids play together (sometimes nicely, sometimes not so much). It brings me so much joy to see them care for each other and develop that unique sibling bond.

What do you love most about Fit4Mom?

I love that Fit4Mom classes are so welcoming, and you can come as you are. If you had a bad day -- come and you'll feel better. If you had a good day -- come and spread the joy. There's no pressure to compete or compare yourself -- you just come and do whatever you can that day.

What are you most looking forward to as an instructor?

I'm really looking forward to meeting more mamas in our village! Since I've largely done the evening/weekend classes until now, there are so many moms I haven't gotten to know as well yet.

I'm also excited to bring my energy to Strides 360 classes. I'm pretty high energy and I'm excited to cheer for the mamas as they accomplish their workouts!!
