Cierra
Hey, friends! I’m an Arizona native, but I like to think of myself as a citizen of the world. Just like with travel, I believe fitness is a personal journey that looks different for everyone and shifts with life’s seasons—it’s not meant to be confined to a box or a one-size-fits-all approach. I started coaching back in 2012 and was part of the first graduating class from NAU’s Fitness Wellness program, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in 2014. My goal is always to help members grow—physically, mentally, and emotionally—through intention, commitment, and a whole lot of good music and movement. When I’m not on the mic, you can usually find me soaking up the sun in Sedona, running with my husband and our Weimaraners, or spending time with friends. My mission with The Box Studio is to empower our amazing community through positive energy and help people live better lives through mindful, safe, and fun movement.

Hi, I’m Florian—Cierra’s husband and your friendly French spice! I’m a dual citizen, born in France but raised everywhere from Sedona to the Virgin Islands. You’ll probably catch me working out next to you, though I leave the coaching to S/Cierra’s and the rest of our incredible team. When I’m not in the studio, I’m teaching at NAU or planning our next trip abroad! Whether you need help with your membership, bike setup, or just want to chat about English literature, I’ve got you. My mission at The Box Studio is to make sure your experience is smooth, seamless, and genuinely enjoyable from start to finish.

Hey there, I’m Sierra Robinett! I was born and raised in Arizona and I am a lifelong lover of movement. My fitness journey kicked off back in high school as a competitive track and cross-country runner, and since then, I’ve fallen in love with trail running. These days, I compete in everything from half marathons to ultras. I’ve been immersed in the fitness world since 2016 and have been a certified group fitness instructor since 2017. Outside the studio, you’ll find me soaking up the outdoors with friends, traveling with my amazing wife, or snuggled up with our pups. My mission at The Box Studio is to create a space where movement is both safe and challenging—and where every class leaves you feeling empowered, inspired, and stronger than when you walked in!
The Box team
The Box team is truly unique in how we connect. Our team blends passion and expertise, offering creative classes like kickboxing, cycle, strength, and mobility that go beyond the workout. We focus on building relationships in the class, fostering a supportive community where everyone feels seen, and challenged to grow together.
Hey, Coach Ben here! A little about me- I’m from Seattle and have but have loved living in Flagstaff the past few years! I’m a student at NAU studying Exercise Physiology, and I am NASM certified. In my spare time, I love doing triathlons and traveling! I’m so excited to get to train with all of you and to be a part of this amazing community!

Hey, I’m Alex Pavon! I’m a Flagstaff local who grew up on a bike and a pair of skis. ⛷️ When I’m not working as an ICU nurse, I’m usually out traveling and racing with Juliana’s pro mountain bike team—or spending time on the water, skiing with friends and family. In my cycle classes, you can expect longer intervals that blend endurance and power for a ride that challenges both your body and your mind. 💥

Hi Friends! My name is Kylie Potter, and my roots lie in Upstate New York. I graduated from NAU with a B.S. in Public Health, Indigenous Health Studies, and have stuck around Flagstaff to enjoy some post-grad life! I thoroughly enjoy being outside, especially during the wintertime. Skiing is my absolute favorite hobby. I am so beyond stoked to be a part of this community and grow with you all. Fitness has always been a huge part of my life, and the exercise community is so rad anywhere you go. Let’s get after it!

Hi, I’m Angie! I’ve been doing bodywork for over 20 years, teaching yoga for more than 30, and leading Pilates classes for nearly a decade. I absolutely love what I do—whether it’s working one-on-one with clients at my downtown office, guiding students at NAU, or kicking butt alongside the amazing members here at The Box Studio. I can’t wait to get to know everyone in my yoga fusion class and share in the energy of all the incredible classes we offer at TBS!
Hi, I’m Felicia! I’m originally from New Mexico, but Flagstaff has been home for over 15 years now. I’ve always been a bit restless, which is probably why fitness fits me so well. During the pandemic, I earned my group fitness certification through ACE, and I’ve been leading boot camp and kickboxing classes ever since.
Hi, I’m Coach Ashley! I moved to Flagstaff from Northern Virginia and instantly knew it was home. After earning my B.S. in Exercise Physiology and Veterinary Bioscience from NC State, I made my way to NAU, where I’m currently pursuing my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree. When I’m not hitting the books, you can usually find me out on a long run, hanging with animals, or exploring the outdoors. I’m passionate about helping people move well, feel their best, and most importantly, have fun while doing it! I’m so excited to be part of The Box community— see y’all out on the floor!
