Melissa Albers is a positive and adventurous ICON from Cleveland, Ohio USA. She has been leading various group fitness classes for over 15 years and found POUND over 9 years ago. She said she instantly felt a connection to the format because it fused her love of fitness and dashboard drum solos during road trips into a one of a kind sweet release where she can be authentically herself. Melissa’s teaching style is sure to make you feel welcomed, encouraged, and like the dynamo powerhouse you truly are! No class or training of Melissa’s would be complete without positive vibes, smiles, puns, and a few one liners for added kicks and giggles.
If you could instantly master any skill, what would it be?
I would love to be able to instantly put people at ease upon meeting them in a new environment. To be able to lessen someone’s anxieties would be huge!
What’s your all-time favorite track to end POUND class with a bang?
‘Work’ by Apashe ft. Vo Williams! This song makes me feel like a total superhero! Everytime I rock it I feel like I should have a cape blowing in the wind behind me. It’s a total scorcher but I feel so powerful!
What’s your ultimate “me time” indulgence?
I absolutely love to travel and be outdoors! So anything involving outdoor adventures- hiking, biking, paddle boarding, downhill skiing. You name it and let’s go!
