Meet Our Instructors

Elyse
OWNER AND INSTRUCTOR
Elyse and Blake grew up in Wichita, KS, both heavily involved in competitive athletics. They moved away to Texas but found their way back to Wichita in 2020. Elyse has been a Physician Assistant since 2018, working both as a hospitalist PA and Trauma PA, but after COVID decided to change plans and open We Ride. While in Texas, she fell in love with boutique, rhythm based cycling classes. When moving back to Wichita, she no longer had the escape of rhythmic cycling.
They are excited to bring and give this concept to the city that gave so much to them!

KAMRI
You should ask Kamri why she became a cycle instructor. She has reason and purpose behind everything she does.
Her view on life? “After my marriage, nothing has shaped and changed me as deeply and powerfully as female friendship.”
Her happy place? Snow skiing with Coldplay in my headphones, dancing in the kitchen to any hip hop with my kids, and reading good fiction with an iced coffee (with so much cream you can hardly tell it's coffee) are my happiest places.
My dream jobs are being on the USWNT or being on Broadway (Of course, both only after being an instructor at We Ride ;) )

WHITNEY
Taking Whitney’s class you may find yourself vibing out to some EDM and pop music. When she isn’t riding you can find her listening to country music. If she had it her way she would spend her days hiking in the mountains - it is her happy place.
Her favorite quote is Isaiah 41:10. It’s a good reminder God’s got this.
Fun fact: Whitney has broken both of her arms at the same time before. In her words “Don’t ask - it was a rough time.”

NATALIE
Natalie’s rides are so much fun. She is witty and you’ll always leave class wanting her playlist.
Her view on life? “There is success in the attempt. The simple act of trying and attempting is a guaranteed win every. single. time.
Her favorite music? Pop! Hands down. Otherwise, she loves anything that has a good beat and/or message that moves her.
Her happy place? In the Drive thru of HTeaO, post-Muscle Pump dinner with her momma anywhere with her boyfriend (Jack), or playing with her dog Charlie at her childhood home.

KYLIE
Favorite Quote or words to live by: People can do hard things!
Favorite music genre: Pop! And anything by Taylor Swift!
Her happy place? A Coffee shop with a latte and a good book or anywhere with her sister!
