James Hollenkamp
James discovered his love of fitness after leaving the business world in 2009. He became passionate about circuit training and immediately felt at home as a boot camp instructor and personal trainer. In the past few years, he has added indoor cycling and yoga to the mix — and learned that the balance between these varied workouts is essential to good health. James has earned certification in Functional Movement Systems, NASM personal training, and NASM Weight Loss, equipping him with the tools to find the very best approach for each and every client. He is also certified in Spinning from Mad Dogg Athletics and certified in Plant Based Sports Nutrition from Exercise ETC, Inc. “I know exactly what it feels like to be behind a desk all day. My goal is to make my clients feel energized, stronger, and pain free — all while having fun at Crisp!”
Erin Perry
Erin has been a leader in the Portland fitness scene for over a decade, instructing cardio kickboxing classes, yoga classes, boot camp classes, and extensive personal training. Although she loves all sides of fitness, her true passion is cycling. When instructing on the bike, her excitement and enthusiasm are at their peak! Erin has competed in numerous triathlons in the last four years, including three half Ironman events and various sprints and Olympic distances. She’s also completed the MDI full marathon, and multiple half marathons throughout New England. Erin recently welcomed her second son. When she's not teaching or training, you can find her outdoors with her family fishing, hiking, biking or paddling. Erin is also passionate about farming and bringing fresh, local foods into the kitchen. She believes that health and fitness are part of everyday life, and strives to help her students and clients find balance between work, home life, health, and fun!
Robbie Woodsum
Robbie is an indoor cycling enthusiast with almost ten years as an instructor under his belt. He's taught everywhere from college campuses to senior gyms to even the White House. Robbie is all about positivity, optimism, and energy. He wants to push you, challenge you, all while playing anything from his favorite Cher songs to pop music you want to sing or dance to. Oh, and don't mind him as he sings along in between cueing and telling jokes. Robbie is very excited to be part of the team here at Crisp!
Francesca “Fran” Martelle
Fran’s love of exercise and movement started at a young age on the swim team. That love grew tremendously on her college campus where she and a dear friend spent their free time outside coming up with funky workouts. She surfs (year round!), is a musician, and loves spending time outside. She grew up in Maine and has a Bachelor’s degree in Health Science. Her passion to teach and empower coupled with her love of exercise is what lead her to become a certified personal trainer. The joy she receives when helping someone achieve a goal is the spark for her. She enjoys keeping her training sessions fun and motivating, geared towards the individual needs of each client - whether that be building strength to move at ease in the home and work environment, training for a marathon, or anywhere in-between! She believes passionately that our bodies are a gift and that they’re our vessels that take us through life to experience life both fully and joyfully. She hopes she can come alongside you and empower you in this journey of exercise!
