Our instructors don’t just coach — they hype you up, hold you accountable, and help you grow. Each one brings something special to the mat, but together? We’re unstoppable.
FOUNDER + INSTRUCTOR
Crystallyn
The heart behind the studio. High-energy, playlist-loving, certified sculpt instructor on a mission to help others feel strong, seen, and supported. Expect sweat, empowerment, and the kind of vibe that keeps you coming back.
" Hi, I’m Crystallyn, founder and owner of CKS! I’m a proud mom to Kendalyn, Hayes, and Emarie, and wife to my biggest supporter, Dusty. Our family lives on an acreage just outside of Sheldon, where life is always busy, a little chaotic (okay, maybe ALOT), and full of love. "
INSTRUCTOR
Lanette
Lanette leads with heart and grit. Her classes are focused, powerful, and full of encouragement. You’ll feel challenged in the best way — and leave feeling strong from the inside out.
"Hi, I’m Lanette Dykstra! I am a dialysis nurse by profession, but also have a background in Exercise Science. I have had a lifelong passion for fitness through strength training and volleyball. I love instructing because it’s so rewarding to help others grow stronger, both physically and mentally, and to see their confidence build over time. What I love most about instructing at CKS is the supportive, high-energy community — it feels like family. When I’m not at the gym, you’ll probably find me riding our UTV, cheering on Nebraska volleyball, or experimenting in the kitchen with new recipes!"
INSTRUCTOR
Morgan
Morgan leads with confidence and creativity. Her classes are high-energy but grounded, and she knows exactly how to get the most out of you. Whether you’re sculpting or stretching, she’s your girl.
"Hi, I’m Morgan Winkel! I’ve loved health and fitness since high school, where I was a four-sport athlete. Through college and beyond, I stuck with at-home workouts—but I joined CKS for a change of pace, and instantly fell in love with the energy, people, and atmosphere. Every workout made me feel stronger and prouder. Becoming a group fitness instructor was never in the plan, but it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made. I love helping others believe in themselves and realize they can do hard things. At CKS, there’s no competition—just community and support. A fun fact: I just got married in June 2025! My husband Brandon and I have a red lab named Axe."
INSTRUCTOR
Amanda
With a warm presence and fierce coaching style, Amanda makes everyone feel welcome while helping you level up. Her classes are a favorite for a reason.
"I’m Amanda Christians and I’m one of the instructors at CKS. Fitness has always been a big part of my life—it helps me feel strong, focused, and happy. I enjoy teaching classes at CKS because I like helping others feel good in their bodies and build confidence. Seeing people grow and get stronger is the best part of what I do. I’m married to my husband, Robby. We have three children, Haley, Cael, Bree and a son in-law Damon. "
INSTRUCTOR
Kate
Calm, centered, and deeply intentional. Kate’s yoga classes are your space to breathe, soften, and realign. She brings peace, power, and grounding to every session.
"Hey, I’m Kate and I teach traditional yoga at CKS. I started teaching in order to better treat and advise clients on gentle stretches/relaxation after their massage appointments. Of all the fitness modalities I’ve tried, yoga is the one I come back to. Discovering the mind body connection and being able to achieve peace and calm while exerting energy is truly transformative. I enjoy seeing the yogis who attend, experience their own form of harmony in this safe and supportive environment."
INSTRUCTOR
Renee
The queen of the burn. If you love a challenge, Renee’s classes are where it’s at. Her combos will light your core up — in the best way possible.
"Hello, my name is Renee Bork. Fitness has always been a huge part of my life—from playing sports throughout school, serving in the Army Reserves, to running a couple of half marathons. What I enjoy most about instructing and being involved in fitness is how it makes both myself and others feel—not just physically, but mentally as well. I love that no matter what class I teach or join, there’s always an incredible mix of support and sweat! A unique detail about me: I was born six weeks premature and weighed just 4 pounds, 6 ounces."
INSTRUCTOR
Erica
Erica brings unmatched energy to every session. Expect a fun, focused workout that challenges you to level up and leaves you feeling unstoppable.
"Hey there, my name is Erica Koedam. I have been a group fitness instructor for almost five years. I recently moved to Sheldon from Rock Valley and live with my boyfriend, Heath, and between the two of us, we have five wonderful kids, Kellen, Evie, Brea, Islie and Memphis. To me, group fitness is more than just a workout. Working out with others at CKS creates a shared energy that motivates and inspires everyone in the room. Knowing I get to create that space where people can reconnect with themselves and feel supported by others is the most meaningful part for me as an instructor. I am so grateful for each and every member at CKS!"
