Adam Scott

Name: Adam Scott
Years Teaching: 10 Spin / 30 Cycling

Bio: Besides posting Adam's bio, he would like to express his gratitude to all the riders that will be particpating this year, both for the first time and those of you whom are returning for the second and third time.

Adam has had the honour of leading the groups for the last two events and looks forward to taking it up a notch again this year.

Having been in cycling for just over 30 years, he knows that it takes more than his two legs to make the wheels go around. It takes the support of many around him, either through inspiration, motivation or just a plain kick in the butt.

Adam is taking that understanding and channeling it to the children of Rafiki. They need our help now and he calls on you to join him and his fellow instructors on April 11th for a fantastic day of fun while in turn helping others who need our inspiration.

Ange Tobia

Name: Ange Tobia
Years Teaching: 14 Spin / 28 fitness, personal & team training

Bio: Ange is a leader in sports training. He brings to the stage a sense of calmness and then... POW... he gets you going to a level you didn't think you were capable of.

As a leader, motivator, coach, trainer, teammate, and friend I attribute a large part of my success to a wonderful life lesson, "Leadership isn't about your position. It's about your influence".

I am hoping that this "influence" will play a large role on our day together for a fabulous cause "Rafiki - a ride for hope, a ride for friends".

Come and join me while I take you back to the old country with a wonderful music selection.

Let Ange take you to the "High Road".

Elieen McMahon

Name: Eileen McMahon
Years Teaching: 1 Spin / 6 Years Cycling

Bio: Eileen is honored to be part of the RideForRafiki. These 35 children for whom we ride, directly or indirectly affected by extreme poverty, the AIDS epidemic and social injustices, are our inspiration.

Catherine Mulvale says it so well: "This event is about nourishing the lives of Rafiki children." Join us and Ride. Together, let's make a difference.

Eileen is a triathlete, having completed Ironman Louisville, and four Ironman 70.3 events, twelve marathons, including two Boston Marathons. She is also a certified Schwinn spin instructor.

Eileen is a mother of two teenagers, is a lawyer and is inspired by people who make a difference, at work, at play and in their communities.

Heather O'Brien

Name: Heather O'Brien
Years Teaching: 12

Bio: As a mother of 2, nurse and spinning instructor, health and fitness are a very important part of her life!

Heather has been teaching spinning for the last 12 years. Heather enjoys teaching at Revolution.

Heather will say "there is nothing that compares with the thrill and energy of each and every ride."

Come and join Heather as she brings her spirit and energy to the Ride For Rafiki room and helps you lift up both your spirit and energy!

 

Maha Al Abadilah

Name: Maha Al Abadilah
Years teaching: 4

Bio: Maha is a dynamic and thrilling instructor. Having been in the fitness industry for the several years, she is already blazing a trail that many are following.

With her spirit and energy, Maha looks forward to making it an exciting and inspiring afternoon. Being certified in over 15 different fitness categories, that makes her ready to lead you through a journey of empowerment and inspiring moments.

Her moto is: "it's all about the Passion, Dedication and Changing Lives". With that, please come and join Maha on that journey.

Some small side points from the author: Maha is a highly motivated athlete. This motivation earned her a Silver Medal on her University Swim team and while in school she ran a marathon only to win the GOLD!
Way to go Maha!
