Spin with Leah

Spotlight on Fitness and Wellness instructors and programs

From personal trainers and Group Ex instructors to massage and physical therapists, MAC’s Fitness and Wellness staff works to keep members healthy, no matter the global health circumstances. While longstanding relationships have been built over the years, there have been personnel changes and new offerings added over the past few months. Learn more about the diversity of programs offered, connect with new faces, and reconnect with familiar ones.

Leah Brecunier has been teaching group exercise since 2004, and spin is her favorite class. A former Olympic distance triathlete and mountain biker, she began her fitness career in Oregon at Nike World Headquarters as a personal trainer and group exercise instructor. Leah loves coaching in all forms and now works on Nike’s social and community Impact team focusing on getting kids active and supporting volunteer coaches.

She grew up on a farm in California and went on to her undergraduate degree at the University of Redlands and her master’s degree at the University of Nottingham in the U.K.

In her spare time, Brecunier enjoys playing soccer, paddle boarding, and hanging out with her husband Brian and 13-yearold daughter, Marley.

Join her at 6:30 a.m. on Tuesdays for spin class.
