Classes: Power Playground, Power Box, FLEX, Core, and Master Trainer

Myke Nicholson describes himself as an athletic artist, and once you experience his training style, that description makes perfect sense. He approaches fitness as a creative discipline, constantly finding new ways to challenge the body and mind while guiding clients toward victories that are uniquely their own.

A NESTA-certified personal trainer and TRX-certified instructor with almost 20 years of experience, Myke draws from a deep and diverse toolkit that spans weightlifting, calisthenics, strongman, and MMA. That breadth of expertise means no two sessions feel the same, and every client gets a training experience built around what they actually need.

Myke’s philosophy is simple but powerful: be a force amplifier. He is not here to overhaul your life overnight. He is here to help you get 1% better every single day, and to show you just how far that compounds over time.

Braegan is one of the driving forces behind MINT. As a leader on the team, she does more than teach exceptional classes. She shapes the programming that defines the MINT experience, mentors fellow instructors, and sets the standard for what great fitness coaching looks like.

Her classes have a way of pulling people back, sometimes more than once in a single day. That kind of loyalty is not an accident. Braegan has a gift for creating workouts that feel fresh and purposeful, from creatively themed classes to fitness challenges that push the entire community forward.

When you step into Braegan’s class, expect to sweat. Her workouts are dynamic, athletic, and results-driven, designed to challenge you in ways that leave you feeling genuinely accomplished. She is not here to make it easy. She is here to help you push past your excuses and show up as a stronger, more powerful version of yourself.

The work does not get easier. You just get stronger.
