Our Staff
CLAY
Clay has spent the past 7 years teaching in 5 different studios and markets, but his journey to the podium wasn’t a straight line (neither is he). Never being athletic growing up — fun fact: he failed gym class his freshman year of high school — cycling changed everything, helping him lose nearly 100 pounds and gain the confidence to lead from the front.
What keeps Clay hooked is how this work challenges him personally while allowing him to challenge others. Born and raised in Lexington, KY, he’s called Miami home for the past 5 years and lives by the belief that you can accomplish anything you put your mind to. Don’t ever take “no” as an answer — just let it be a hurdle on your road to success.
His rides are unpredictable in the best way: sometimes a full-on party, sometimes an intense grind, but always high-energy and designed to help you find your inner athlete. Playlists? Rap, hip hop, EDM/house, and 2000s throwbacks — the kind of music that makes you push harder without even realizing
MARIA
Maria Karla Mayol – or just MK – was born and raised in Cuba, and she’s bringing all the Latin flare to every ride. Get ready for high-energy vibes, spicy beats, and a whole lot of sweat. A true music festival fanatic, MK doesn’t believe in sticking to just one genre – expect anything from Reggaeton and EDM to Salsa and Rap blasting through the speakers. Her rides are all about pushing limits, finding your power, and leaving the room feeling stronger, bolder, and ready to conquer anything.
Off the bike? She’s Dr. MK – working in the field of ABA and mental health, with a background as a legal and forensic psychology researcher. She’s also a certified personal trainer with over 5 years of experience coaching functional strength training, blending science, strength, and heart in everything she does. Whether she’s coaching you through that final sprint or leveling up lives beyond the studio, MK is here to remind you that you’ve got more in the tank. Let’s ride, lift, sculpt and slay.
