Founder

My name is Taylor and I'm the founder of Rebellion Fitness. I have a bachelors degree in Exercise Science and Psychology, and a masters in Kinesiology with a dual focus in corrective exercise and rehab. I decided to open my own space in 2022 after being a personal trainer and coach for 10 years. My goal for Rebellion was to create a community and space that empowers others to fall in love with movement and what their bodies can do while also inspiring them to play in their everyday life. I have based everything in this space around helping others move and feel better, and carefully selected classes and programming that fulfill this purpose. Regardless of your starting point, I'm here to help you move safely and have fun while doing it!

Yoga & Pilates Instructor

Originally from St. Louis, I returned in 2017 after 12 years living on the West Coast. Transitioning from the design industry, I pursued a 200-hour yoga teacher training program, evolving from participant to instructor while remaining a lifelong student. Teaching yoga has afforded me the privilege of guiding others in self-discovery beyond the mat. I also curate international yoga retreats for adventurers and seekers of life experiences.

As an adventurer at heart, I have lived in five different states, accumulating a wealth of interactions with unique culture, foods, and people. I have embraced risks, experienced successes and failures, found and lost love, gained enlightenment, and even collected a few tattoos. These adventures have profoundly enriched my mind, body, and soul. I infuse my classes and coaching with creativity and the rich knowledge gained from my travels and learning experiences.

Personal Trainer & Group Instructor

My name is Matthew, and I’m passionate about all things movement. My goal as a trainer is to help people get back to baseline—baseline mobility, baseline strength, and baseline fitness. I focus on safely developing functional movement patterns that support everyday life. We’ll build strength, move better, and have a blast in the process.

Massage Therapist & Group Instructor

Alex is a massage therapist and movement coach based in Central West End. He helps people understand the tension that lives in both the body and mind and learn new ways of moving through life with ease. For the past 6 years, he's combined precise, deep myofascial bodywork with movement coaching so clients feel better, move better, and carry that intelligence into daily life. Working hands-on with thousands of bodies revealed a clear pattern: the toughest pain and movement dysfunction often shows up in sedentary and overworking lifestyles, especially coupled with beliefs that unintentionally disempower healthy changes. That insight pushed him to study and teach higher-quality movement that builds mobility, awareness, and long term resilience and function.
