Hey, hey! 👋💚
With fall POUND just around the corner and lots of new faces around joining, I figured it was time for a little re-introduction!
I’m Jess — wife, mom to two pretty awesome young adults, dog mom, and the person behind POUND with Jess. 🥁💚
I first discovered POUND as a participant back in 2018, never imagining that one workout would end up becoming such a huge part of my life.
At the time, I wasn’t feeling like the best version of myself. I was tired, unmotivated and struggling to find a form of exercise that I actually wanted to do.
Then I found POUND. 🎶🥁
And something clicked.
It wasn’t about being the fittest person in the room. It wasn’t about keeping up perfectly or looking a certain way. It was loud music, movement, drumming, sweating, laughing…and for 45 minutes, shutting everything else out.
Eight years later, that’s still what I love most about it.
Life has thrown our family some pretty big challenges over the last few years, and fitness has become so much more to me than just a workout. It’s my stress relief, my reset button and sometimes the one hour where my brain gets to turn everything else off.
And somewhere along the way, this little POUND community became something I never expected. 💚
Watching women walk into their first class nervous and unsure…and then seeing them weeks later getting stronger, letting loose, taking up space and absolutely ROCKING it is hands-down one of my favourite parts of teaching.
You do not have to be coordinated.
You do not have to already be “fit.”
And you definitely don’t have to know what you’re doing before you walk through the door. 😂
You just have to show up.
So whether you’ve been rocking with me for years, you’re joining us for the first time this fall, or you’ve been quietly following along wondering if POUND might be for you…
Come as you are. Grab some Ripstix. Turn up the music. And let’s ROCK. 🤘🥁💚
Here’s to another fall of sweating, laughing, getting stronger and feeling a little more like ourselves. ✨

ROCKOUT. WORKOUT.
