Kristen E.

Born and raised in Stowe, Vermont, I developed a love for movement and the outdoors early in life. After graduating from Stowe High School, I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Athletic Training from Florida Gulf Coast University, followed by a Master’s in Physician Assistant Studies from the Medical University of South Carolina.

My career began in Orthopaedics and Aesthetics, but I quickly realized that my true passion lies in helping others thrive through wellness, fitness, and movement. That passion has led me to Ride, where I’m honored to continue building on its legacy and inspiring others to discover their own strength and potential.

When I’m not at Ride, you’ll likely find me outdoors—whether hiking, running, gravel biking, gardening, golfing, skiing, or hunting—or enjoying time with friends and family. Above all, my goal is to encourage others to show up for themselves so they can live fully and appreciate the beauty of this community we call home.

I recently took a class at Ride Indoor Cycling and it reminded me why this place has such a loyal following. First, Kristen, the new owner, is incredible. You can tell how much she cares about the studio and the community around it. I took Emily’s class and it was exactly what I needed. Great music, a challenging ride, and the kind of energy that pushes you while still feeling really supportive. Also, LOVE the new location! If you’re in the area and looking for a workout that’s both motivating and fun, Ride is absolutely worth checking out.

My daughter and I were visiting Stowe for a short vacation and attended a Monday evening spin class. It was a great experience. Easy to book, appreciated the loaner shoes, quality bike and Joanna was an excellent leader.

Ride is such a lovely and supportive community. Everyone works hard and gets a great workout - guaranteed! - but there is no pressure or judgement. I have been going since they opened and no matter what shape I am in (pregnant, post partum, out of shape, in shape, training for a race etc) the instructors and classes meet me where I am at. Can't recommend them enough!

Ride is so much more than an exercise studio, it is a COMMUNITY. One that encourages, supports, and fulfills every day. The instructors are awesome - no class is the same music or routine. Just when you think you want to stay in bed, getting to class and sweating it out motivates you to get going! Joanna is the best and sets the tone for an inclusive and encouraging environment. Not being able to ski this year due to injury, it helped me make it through the winter with a smile and fitness. Don't hesitate to join Ride and come for any class - Ride, bootcamp, 30/30 and my #1 butt-kicking favorite B3! You won't be sorry!
