After years playing competitive volleyball in college, Dani carried that love for team and community into her professional life, eventually finding her place in group fitness. She's spent years helping build the Elevate community as a coach, programmer, and former owner, driven by a passion for helping people build strength, confidence, and habits that fit real life. As a wife, mom, and athlete, she's learned firsthand that fitness isn't about perfection — it's about consistency, something training through a high-risk pregnancy and postpartum recovery taught her deeply. Today she specializes in women's fitness, pre/postnatal coaching, and HYROX training, helping every member feel seen, supported, and capable of more than they think.

Tone has been coaching for 6 years and training for over a decade, a journey that started in his early twenties when he set out to stop being "the skinny guy" — and ended up falling in love with training along the way.

Xylie found her love for fitness through running, group fitness, and eventually strength training. After years of trying different styles, she discovered her true passion: helping people realize they're capable of more than they think.
