A south bay native, Brittany Hixenbaugh was born and raised in Palos Verdes Estates. She started dance lessons at the age of three, and went on to competitively dance for 20 years. Growing up, if Brittany wasn’t performing on stage or dancing in and out of local dance studios you could find her at the local beach in the ocean either surfing or kayaking. After loosing her father in a car accident in 2007, which they both were in, Brittany used fitness as a way to rehabilitate her body, mind, and soul. Through tears and sweat, she found her calling and purpose in life- to help those who have suffered from similar life- changing experiences through working out. Wanting to break in to the fitness industry and make a name for herself, Brittany became certified in Cycling, Pilates, and HIIT classes. For the last 9 years Brittany has taught and continues to teach in various South Bay studios as well as training her private clients, “FIT with BRITT” at the beach. While living life as though everyday might be her last, Brittany pushes herself and riders to be the best version of themselves both mentally and physically.
