Founded in 2016I started training clients in 2009 and, over time, built a thriving community through personal training and small group classes. After opening my first small studio in 2014 and being forced to relocate when the building was sold, The Mix was born. We adapted through COVID with Zoom classes, but nothing compares to being back in the studio together. In 2016, I knew Ypsilanti was where The Mix belonged. Beal gave us our first small space on W. Cross, and as we grew, they helped us expand to River Street and eventually into our beautiful studio on Harriet. My husband, Gerry, joined The Mix full-time along the way, and together we continued to grow. Gerry passed away in September of last year, and since then, the The Mix community has been one of the greatest sources of strength in my life. It has reminded me every day why we built this place. Beal has believed in our vision from the beginning, and as a commercial landlord, they've consistently supported us and taken great care of our business. Their partnership has been a big part of our journey.
