“I’m so shocked to be named the Monthly Motivator for October! I find Rev is filled with motivators when I’m there, so I’m honored to have been nominated. I joined Rev in July 2022 when I was depressed from not being able to run due to a bum Achilles tendinitis. My first couple of classes cemented me to 1716 Main Street because I was so amazed by the energy from the instructors and the other clients. I absolutely love the vibe and have to check myself from not spinning every single day. Instructors always have a banging playlist and challenging moves, which keeps me engaged. When people ask me what I love about Rev, I tell them I love hanging around all of the young energy and positivity. I also love to say, “My gym has a book club.”

So to recap why do I love Rev? The people, the vibe, the little library, the young energy, the music, the choreo keeping me on task and motivated, the book club, the friends I’ve made (yo, Liz, Shiana, Emily, Deana, Michael, Alex, Dylan, Ashica!), and the outrageously amazing instructors. And for the first time in almost 40 years of running (I was not a jogger), I can honestly say I don’t really miss it. – Mel
