OUR INSTRUCTORS
Allison Villegas
Before opening Windsor Fitness Club, I started my fitness journey as a dancer. I danced competitively from when I was a child and into my adulthood. As I got older, I realized that I needed something else to deliver a fuller body workout, while still maintaining my flexibility. That’s when I discovered Pilates. Taking group Pilates classes made me feel so amazing! Not only did it transform my body, but my energy and confidence increased as well. Needless to say, I was hooked! Six months later, I got certified and was teaching my own classes! Now I have been an instructor for over 7 years. What I love about teaching Pilates is challenging individuals at their own levels while watching them improve and grow. I am a major fitness advocate for all walks of life. Live fit, feel fit, be fit!
Alanna Mintonye
Hi, my name is Alanna. I am a certified yoga instructor, as well as an ACE certified personal trainer. With over 2 decades in the fitness industry, I offer a variety of classes ranging from restorative to dynamic flow. Restorative sessions focus on breath work and the subtle body, while the dynamic flow offers a more physical challenge. Yoga is in everything! Yoga is an extension of the soul. I am excited to share the physical and spiritual benefits of this practice with all. Namaste.
Alisse Galde
Alisse has been a certified yoga instructor since 2016 and has practiced in the Ashtanga influenced Kest Method in her most recent training and holds a 500RYT. Inferno Hot Pilates trained with Gabi Walters in the summer of 2023, she follows her passion of movement and varying workouts to keep things fun and interesting. With a certification in Personal Training (NASM) she puts emphasis on form and injury prevention. She aims to create a lighthearted atmosphere while encouraging you to use your strength for a more profound sensation of openness in mind and body. Her classes are challenging and yet accessible for all levels.
Amy Faulkner
I’m a hair styling, soul searching, yoga enthusiast. My personal practice began in 1997 and I received my RYT-200 in 2023. My love for yoga brought me to a place of wanting to teach and share yoga with others. I use Baptiste Power Vinyasa yoga, and my love for music, to help people find their own strength, love & light!
Anya Cunningham
I started teaching Pilates classes in 2017. I have always had a passion for fitness and fun. My Pilates classes allow me to do both while challenging a group of people to improve and reach their fitness goals. I love what I do and I love the look of pride and accomplishment on people’s faces when class is over. See you at the club!

Becky Schwank
“Hi, I’m Becky Schwank! A mom of 2 boys, I grew up in Sonoma County doing competitive cheerleading and was also a competitive dancer! I fell in love with fitness after having my first son in 2016 and shortly after became an NASM certified personal trainer. For the last 8 years I’ve been a personal trainer, ran a fitness franchise, and also a Pilates instructor! Hot Pilates and Hot Strength are what I fell in love with 3 years ago, and can’t get enough! The full body workout, the sweat, and the amazing environment is so fulfilling!”
Carlos Mendoza
My name is Carlos Mendoza. I’m originally from El Salvador, but moved to Santa Rosa from Reno recently. I’m a father of a beautiful 23 year old daughter and an awesome 19 year old son. I’m a former amateur boxer and boxed for 12 years. I have been a student of the sport since turning the fire off at 24. I’ve since been a Pilates instructor for the last 6 years, a personal boxing coach the last 4 and a fitness junkie all my life, whether I liked it or not! I love hot Pilates because this work out changed my life and the way I look at fitness! I also teach yoga, boxing and I’m super excited to work with all you and share my crazy energy and love for fitness. Much love! Let’s Get It!!
Ericka Bothof
At the age of 9, I took up classical ballet and jazz. It shaped my life forever, as it has given me a deep appreciation for the mind-body connection. At age 23, I moved to Hawaii and exchanged dance for my curiosity in the practice of yoga. For 6 years, I practiced yoga, acquired my sociology degree from the University of Hawaii, and my certification of aesthetics. With dance I was able to express a story through body movement, whereas with yoga, the focus was more about staying connected to the self. After I was introduced to barre I became passionate about strengthening the body with this mind to muscle connection. I trained with Barre and got certified to teach. I am passionate about building a relationship with the body as a whole, both with strength and flexibility. My inspiration is to encourage others to commit to protecting their body from future injuries by maintaining strength, flexibility, and strong joints.
Georgia Wyman
I’m a local from Sonoma County. I have always been active, but in recent years have found a passion for Pilates and strength training. I’ve been coming to Windsor Fitness for about a year now and have loved the energy and how much stronger I’ve watched myself get! I recently got my Pilates certification and am very excited to start my journey as an instructor and get to contribute to this amazing community.
Jamie Faull
Hi! I’m Jamie. A cardio and Pilates loving mama! Hot Pilates has healed me from the inside out and my goal is to give everyone the best experience for their continued growth. I’ve played soccer for 18+ years, which led me into coaching. Signing up for marathons and staying fit and healthy makes me feel like the best “me”. My goal is to help everyone feel like their best as well!
Jessica McMillan
I started my training in dance, but soon my interests turned to yoga. Yoga created an avenue of self-reflection and deepening into the body like no other. I have been practicing yoga since 2009 and got my 200hr YTT in 2014. Since then, I have taken advanced Anna Forest training, been a practitioner of Ayurveda, and developed an extensive understanding of the muscles and movement of the body through massage therapy. All this knowledge has been integrated into my practice and has helped me to be intentional and intuitive with my touch. Yoga is the perfect start if you want to strengthen your connection with yourself while gaining balance and strength!
Kelliann Reginato
I began teaching in 2012 and had studied under a variety of traditions, but is most inspired by my training with Ana Forrest. With over 1000 hours of combined training, I have taught in a variety of settings and specialize in leading even the most mixed level groups. My teaching style is direct, with an emphasis on intuition and playful exploration. Expect easy-to-follow but unique sequencing, fun playlists, and an atmosphere that holds space for students at all levels, beginning or advanced.

Lisa Parducci
I have been involved in the fitness industry for the past 30 years and have always loved teaching and the energy created in the actual instruction of each class. I have taught many different types of classes throughout the years, but by far my favorite is teaching barre. I consider core, posture and balance the foundation of a strong, healthy body and love the concept of combining these things in a fitness format with dance elements. I’m excited to bring you a fun and energetic class and hope to see you at the barre soon!
Madeline Schwartz
Born and raised in Sonoma County, I have 15+ years of experience in the fitness industry and hold the following certifications: Power Pilates 600 Hour Comprehensive Teacher Training, Xtend Barre Instructor Training, and 200 RYT Hot Fusion Flow Yoga Teacher Training (from South Florida’s The Yoga Joint Studios). Over the years, I’ve been lucky enough to take trainings and workshops from some amazing world-renowned Yoga Teachers and draw inspiration from the likes of Kelly Green, Paige Held, Seane Corn, Jason Crandell, Bryan Kest and Liz Arch. When taking my yoga classes, you can expect a challenging yet accessible flow focusing on proper alignment with reminders to breathe, safe adjustments, and words of uplifting encouragement, all set to fun and motivating music. When I’m not teaching, I am most likely taking class (always a student!), wine tasting with friends or spending time with my ten-year-old rescue pittie Zully.
Rachel Hawkins
Rachel is a transplant to Santa Rosa who began teaching group fitness as a way to meet new friends with a common thread. Rachel teaches two newer fitness formats- Upbeat Barre and High Fitness. These formats are music driven with a fun incorporation of popular radio hits that will have you singing mid-class forgetting that you’re also getting stronger at the same time. Her passion for teaching is palpable and seeing the smiles on participants faces is what keeps her going. When not in the studio Rachel is a mother to two children, as well as a Registered Dental Hygienist. She enjoys cooking, any form of physical fitness, and being around family and friends. Native to Oregon she appreciates a good cloudy day with a chance or rain. Rachel looks forward to seeing your smiles around the studio.
Rebecca Keller
My love for dance and movement has been strong for as long as I can remember. For the majority of my life being active, flexible, and strong has been a major focus. The community that comes along with this focus is also such an enjoyable part of it. About 15 years ago I found Vinyasa Yoga, and immediately knew it was right for me. It is the perfect combination of strength and grace, with a flow almost like dancing. I’ve recently stepped into the instructor role and have found it so fulfilling! This practice is so beneficial all on its own, but it is even more powerful when utilized after intense strength based activities such as weight training or Hot Pilates. These are such amazing tools to keep us long, lean, and mobile. Can’t wait to see you on your mat!
Romi Menegoni
I’m an RDH (Toothfairy) and a sunshine seeking, smile-loving adventurer who has traveled to South America, Europe, Australia and Southeast Asia gaining an open- minded, colorful view on music, dance, and culture. My journey began at 18 years old with Bikram Yoga. I got my 200RYT Training with Yoga Alliance 3 years ago. My style has evolved into a gentle Vinyasa Flow and Restorative Yoga Flow with meditation to help students recharge and rejoice not only in the body but in the mind. I absolutely love yoga and my heart is so full of gratitude when I get to share it with others!
Sabrina Bellinger
I’m originally from Texas, and still love the heat. I’ve always loved to move and started dancing at a young age. Anything that connects me to music, physical fitness and heat energizes me. I became a fitness instructor when I found classes I was passionate about. I love strength training and barre as they provide a solid foundation for our everyday movements. I’ve gained invaluable insight into the mechanics of the human body and the importance of functional strength and flexibility. I’m always looking for new ways to challenge my fitness while having fun. Out of the studio, I’m a mom of two and an avid tennis player. I’m excited to share my love and passion for fitness and movement with y’all.
Vanessa Selzer
I started practicing Pilates in 2017 and was instantly amazed by how it brought clarity and lightness to my body and mind. In 2019, I began teaching! Pilates is my lifeline. It’s not just a workout, it’s a system of support for growth and transformation. Every time I see someone accomplish their goals, I appreciate the great reward of being part of their fitness journey!
Vinita Laroia
