Laura Schilling

I joined the gym in 2017 looking for a new outlet. I quickly came to realize that EverBody's is more than a gym, it's a family that I wanted to be a part of. What turned into a thought, quickly transformed into reality. In 2018, I received my certification in Barre Above. My passion for the fitness industry didn't stop there! When Breanne approached me with the opportunity of being the Operations Manager, I knew with every bone in my body I was exactly where I needed to be. My new role has opened up strengths within that I didn't even know existed! Don't worry though, I'm still teaching Barre!
I'm a busy mom of 2 wonderful girls, Kinslee (7) and Harper (5). My husband and I are both coaches (football & soccer). Fall season tends to bring a lot of organized chaos, okay, lets be honest, it can be very unorganized at times :) BUT when you love your job, coaching, and the community it makes those chaotic times just a little bit easier. Life in Perry County continues to inspire me to get out there and try new things while having a supportive group not behind you, but with you.

Gretchen Schultz

My name is Gretchen Schultz and I am a Certified Barre Instructor. I mostly fill in for Laura Schilling when she is unable to teach. I found my love for exercising about 11 years ago when my husband and I were in Pennsylvania for 3 weeks waiting for our adopted son to be born. I love to run, teach and take Barre classes, and try just about anything. Exercise is truly "my daily therapy". I have met so many wonderful people at EverBody's Gym that have encouraged me to do things I never thought I could. The positive energy and family feeling here is contagious. When I am not at the gym, I am busy being a mom to two busy boys or at the Tell City JR/SR High School working as the school nurse. I feel blessed to be a part of this team.

Chris Thornton

Chris came to EverBody's via the Biggest Loser program. He transitioned from successful weight loss to coaching Biggest Loser teams. He has always been a runner and enjoys a good race. He found spinning to be a great way to cross train for running and is now a certified spinning instructor. Chris lives in Tell City with his wife Mary. Other interests are the outdoors, gardening, and golf.

Darla Goffinet

My name is Darla Goffinet, and I've been a group fitness instructor at EverBody's for more years than I can count. From Breanne and Blair to the instructors and office personnel to the members, we are truly a family. I lead the 4:45 a.m. Wake-Up Workout classes on Wednesdays and Fridays. I also teach spinning on Sunday mornings. I love the morning crowd. These people work so hard and are always on a mission. They recognize the importance of working out early so that nothing comes up later in the day to distract them from getting in their workout. The people at the gym in the mornings are my friends, not just people I say "hi" to in passing. They keep me going and make me smile. We'd love to have you join us!

Gary Stath

Gary began his journey into fitness in 2009. He began running, despite having an artificial knee. He has run races of many distances, including two marathons. Running eventually led to joining EverBody's in the first Biggest Loser competition, and it was there he discovered Spinning. In 2013, he was employed by EverBody’s as a certified Spinning Instructor. As an instructor, he teaches classes weekly. Gary works at Tell City Jr.Sr. High School as a JAG Specialist. He and his wife Joyce reside in rural Tell City.

Laura Kessans

I joined the EverBody's Team almost 6 years ago and I could not be happier that I did so! I began teaching Zumba because I love to dance and I love working with people!

This past year I have received my Pound Fitness Instructor Certification. I absolutely love teaching Pound. When I am not at the gym, I am the Youth Service Center Coordinator for Hancock County Schools and I am blessed by both of my jobs daily!

Russ Christensen

I joined the EverBody's staff in September 2014 after 39+ years with the U.S. Forest Service. I originally joined EverBody's in 2012 to make a lifestyle change which the Biggest Loser program was an instrumental part of. I am a Biggest Loser coach, spinning and cardio/strength instructor, and an ACE certified personal trainer. When I'm not at the front desk I can be found leading spinning classes or filling in as a group workout instructor or doing maintenance around the gym. On Monday mornings I can be found leading the cardio/strength class. If you're needing that individual instruction I am here to help you. After a 15 year hiatus from running, I have again taken it up and have run numerous 5K and 10K races, plus four half marathons. I am also a co-leader in the gym's running programs.

You will find EverBody's to be one big family that is willing to help whether it's getting started on a workout program or doing a lifestyle change.

Kristel Kratzer

In 2010 I became a Certified Group Fitness Instructor through AFAA and love passing fitness on to others in Body Sculpting and Pilates, two classes I teach. I starting coming to the gym in high school on and off, but in 2008 I became regular face here. I started taking classes, began running, and using the weight machines. I can still be found on a treadmill or at a weight machine when not in class.

The atmosphere here is amazing, you are family, members and staff care about your journey and want to help or encourage you to keep going.

I came to Everbody's 9 years ago to make a lifestyle change. I knew I needed to lose weight & become healthier but what I didn't know is that I would love the transformation & environment of being with like minded people.

Patty Hawkins

I joined Everbody gym about 10 years ago because of my love for Zumba. There was not a Zumba Class around that I did not attend. Zumba has given me confident to try new things. In February, 2016 I received my license to teach Zumba and have been teaching Zumba at the gym.

Brandy Hopkins

A part of EverBody's for over five years, I love this gym. Walking through the doors for the first time to be a part of the Biggest Loser, I would have never imagined working as part of the team. Certified through YogaFaith as a yoga instructor, I love my job. Yoga has so many benefits and helping people to relax while exercising is a great thing.
I love writing and have come to know many of our members through their stories I write for motivational pieces.

I have a M.A. in Teaching, a B.S. in Physical Education, and minors in both Health & Safety and Psychology.

Brittany Busse

Brittany started running in 2002 when she was eight years old. She was in the second grade and remembers begging her parents to join the “fun run” club at her elementary school. Upon their approval, Brittany eagerly took up the opportunity. She figured out how to convert feet to miles and used her Dad’s measuring tape to create a one-mile course in her yard to practice running for fun. Although her love of running was evident to her family, it wasn’t until junior high when her running career began.

From then on, she ran cross country and track in junior high, high school, and throughout all four years of college. She came away with a high-school title as as district champion in the 800 and placed in two state meets. She broke many track records at Wright State University and was a key runner in building their running program. After graduating college in 2016, Brittany is still pursuing her love of running and chasing new PRs. Brittany holds a BA in Psychology and currently works at Tell City Jr.-Sr. High School. She is an instructional assistant and volunteers as a distance coach for Tell City’s junior high track and field team.

She is married to Matthew Busse, a tooling engineer at ATTC Manufacturing. They have two German Shorthair Pointer-mix dogs. Some of Brittany’s interests aside from running include learning about health and nutrition, cooking and baking with whole ingredients, playing guitar, camping, being outside in warm weather, swimming in the ocean, traveling, working with horses, and hiking. Overall, she is driven to encourage and inspire others to be and achieve their best!

Emily James

I have been a member of EverBody’s since 2012, which coincided with the start of my own health journey. There was a contest at the gym called the “Biggest Loser” and I figured this was what I needed to help me become a healthier version of myself. I’ve participated and/or coached many seasons along the way and, in November 2018, I crossed off an item off my bucket list. I passed the exam to become a certified personal trainer! My love for helping others in my FT job also comes in handy when I train clients. I enjoy interacting with others and watching people realize they are worth it. I love lifting weights, walking, spinning and yoga. When not at the gym, I work full-time as a registered nurse at PCMH. I am married and a stepmother to four children. When not working, my husband I enjoy watching or attending sporting events, especially IU basketball and the St. Louis Cardinals.
