At Activate House, our coaches are the heart of our community, bringing passion, energy, and inspiration to every class. We’re thrilled to spotlight Ariana, whose journey into fitness and love for spin has shaped her into the incredible coach she is today.
Born and raised in Las Vegas, Ariana holds a degree in business management. She made the bold decision to leave her job and move to San Diego with her best friends nearly two years ago, seeking a fresh start and new experiences. Ariana’s journey into fitness began at the front desk of a spin studio, where she fell in love with the workout and the sense of community it fostered.
Stepping into the role of a coach was a leap outside her comfort zone, but that’s exactly why Ariana was drawn to it. She’s passionate about the growth that comes from pushing boundaries and loves being part of her members’ journeys as they reach new milestones.
“Growth begins where comfort ends,” she says.
It’s no surprise that Ariana’s favorite class to teach is spin! She adores the immersive energy of a spin class—the dark room, the music, and the high-energy vibes.
When she’s not coaching, Ariana loves heated sculpt classes and long walks to stay active.
Many might not know that Ariana balances her love for fitness with a full-time career in commercial real estate. After her 6:00 AM classes, she heads straight into her 8-to-5 workday!
Starting out can be intimidating, but Ariana’s advice is clear and empowering:
“Find workouts that you have fun doing and don’t be hard on yourself! It’s a journey for a reason—enjoy each challenge and achievement.”
Ariana encourages her members to embrace discomfort as a path to progress. Her favorite mantra is:
“Get comfortable being uncomfortable.”
She reminds everyone to lean into challenges and take pride in the progress that follows.
When she’s not coaching or working, Ariana enjoys:
Ariana loves snacking on fruit or Go-Macro bars for a quick protein boost. After her Wednesday night classes, she often treats herself to Thai takeout—a well-earned reward!
For Ariana, Activate House is more than a fitness studio; it’s a welcoming community of people dedicated to becoming their best selves.
“It’s refreshing to be surrounded by people who put in the work and are always friendly and welcoming.”
Ariana’s classes are all about having fun and trying something new. Her top tip?
“Give just that much more every single class. And don’t take yourself too seriously! If I’m singing Rufus at 6 AM, then so are you.”
Ariana’s infectious energy and dedication make her a vital part of the Activate House family. If you haven’t yet experienced one of her classes, what are you waiting for? Join her for an unforgettable workout filled with music, energy, and a whole lot of fun!
