Katie Hoak
In her youth, Katie was a full time ballerina who spent her days in the studio rehearsing & her weekends performing. After college, she hung up her shoes to pursue a career in advertising in New York City. That's where she met her husband Jerry and they spent 10 happy years playing Mad Men together in the big apple.
After a decade in New York, Katie & Jerry relocated to Richmond, VA. Katie was eager to get back into fitness full time and discovered TURN just weeks after moving to Richmond. Her first class was Surf Fit with Beth and she was hooked immediately. She found the SurfSet boards gave her the balance and core workout she missed from her ballet days, while providing a workout that was not only different, but truly a ton of fun. It's this mission to have fun and not take yourself too seriously that Katie brings into her class.
When she's not teaching Surf, you can find Katie doing something outdoors, whether it's hiking, biking or paddle boarding on the James. She also works full time as a Business Director at Arts & Letters, an independent creative company, just around the corner in Scott's Addition. Stop by and say hello!
