As a Shaker High School student, Brenna was a dual athlete, participating on both the Unified Basketball and cheer teams in the same season. Brenna was challenged to find an appropriate post-grad program after high school. With strong familial support, she found a place at Maur Movement to maintain routine and consistency in her days. Her dedication and commitment have paid dividends in her strength, stamina, and self-confidence!

As a coach, there are few things more rewarding than watching Brenna go from “I’m scared!” to “I did it!” when presented with a heavier weight, a higher step, or a more complex motor skill. She keeps showing up strong and pushes through—no matter how much effort she’s already given, we can always count on her willingness to run laps with a smile. Though she is quick to stop any music from interrupting her workouts, Brenna loves when the crowd at the gym comes together to cheer her through her reps. A collective “Brenna! Brenna! Brenna!” seems to be her best motivator, followed closely by the appeal of “French Fry Fridays” at the close of each week.

Brenna is one of our most persistent attendees at Maur Movement and also one of the friendliest faces we see. Watch out—she has pranks for days hidden under her kind and gentle demeanor. While Brenna is always watching out for her coaches and welcoming fellow athletes, her mom, Stephanie, is one of the most sought-after cheerleaders of our Maur Movement team, with clients looking to her for positive reinforcement whenever she is at the gym. The apple does not fall far from the tree! In addition to Brenna's individual gains, she and her family have helped us build a strong sense of community at Maur Movement.

Brenna once gifted Coach Kristin with a mug that reads, “I am so glad you are my friend.” We reciprocate that sentiment to Brenna and her family tenfold. Her persistence and progress drive us to keep showing up to see what else is possible, too!
