Staff spotlight: Meet lead trainer kayla regonlinski
At HGF, our team is the heartbeat of everything we do, and our Lead Trainers play a huge role in shaping both the client experience and the future of our instructor community. Today, we’re excited to kick off our very first staff highlight by introducing Kayla Regonlisnki, one of our two incredible Lead Trainers.
Kayla first walked through the doors of HGF in August 2021 as a client. Growing up in Mansfield, she had heard about the studio—but it was the intensity of the workout paired with the warmth of the community that truly hooked her. In 2022, she officially stepped into the instructor role, bringing with her a deep passion for people and movement.
Kayla’s coaching style, in three words: Encouraging. Empowering. Fun.
Kayla believes that movement should challenge you—but it should also leave you feeling supported, confident, and energized.
Before joining HGF full-time, Kayla spent over a decade working in education. That background now plays a major role in how she leads. As a teacher, she learned that while the content stays the same, the delivery must adapt to the people in front of you. That philosophy guides her work as a Lead Trainer—combining compassion, creativity, and clear communication to meet instructors and clients exactly where they are.
For Kayla, the most rewarding part of her role is watching instructors grow from day one of training through graduation and beyond. Stepping on the mic, leading a room, and showing up with confidence takes courage—and she’s deeply proud of every instructor who commits to that journey. Supporting that growth is what fuels her every day.
Kayla believes the strongest client–instructor relationships are built on positivity, respect, and authenticity. Connection is her favorite part of the job, and she never takes lightly the responsibility of leading 45 minutes that can shift someone’s entire day—for the better.
A Fitness Myth Worth Debunking
One misconception Kayla loves to challenge? There’s a single “type” of a person who belongs in fitness. In her eyes, working in wellness isn’t about fitting a mold—it’s about passion, care, and community. And that’s something anyone can bring to the table.
We’re so grateful to have Kayla leading, mentoring, and inspiring both our team and our clients. If you’ve ever taken her class—or trained under her—you know just how special; her impact is.
