Our Team
LIFE CHANGER & DREAM MAKER
Katie Callahan - Owner
My parents enrolled me in dance classes at the age of three, and my love for the art of dance (Ballet, Tap, Modern, Lyrical, Hip-hop and Jazz) grew as I grew. And at the age of 19 years old, I opened On Your Toes Dance Studio and for the next 25 years of my life, my heart and soul was poured into my dance students.
During those years I raised my greatest blessing, my son Tyler. He taught me spontaneity and resiliance, but also patience and purpose. It was also during this time, that I found that various forms of fitness was where I found the most balance for myself. It taught me structure, dicipline and brought me peace. It has been a tool that I turn to not only to work not only on myself physically, but mentally and spitirually as well.
As a single mom in my 30’s, I became certified in Zumba, Personal Training and various styles of group training. This also lead me to become certifed in Holistic Nutrition. By helping others achieve fitness and nutrition goals and sharing in their progress is what fueled my passion. This is when I began holding classes out of my home garage.
In my 40s, I ventured into bodybuilding and brought home awards and trophies that I never dreamed I could achieve. Despite the many challenges of this journey each time I competed, I found it to be the most rewarding physical chapter for me yet.
As 2020 impacted us all in so many ways, we soon found that we were closing the doors to my beloved dance studio. Over these past few years, I have been blessed to continue sharing my fitness journey with so many amazing people. My passion in life is helping others feel their best by providing the tools needed to transform. Knowing that I’ve helped to add longevity to others lives, defines my life purpose. Becoming the Owner of The Ice House Fitness Studio is a blessing beyond belief! I will continue to work hard and share my love, knowledge and passion for this magical venue and the community that surrounds it. I am ready to help you and share in your health and fitness journey!

CHRISTINA O'CONNOR - INSTRUCTOR
I am a certified Group Fitness Instructor and Barre Above instructor at the Ice House! I started my health journey at the IH the beginning of 2021 after I had a spine injury and lost feeling on the top right side of my body. After surgery I hit a low point physically & mentally. With encouragement from Jess & the IH community I started my road to recovery becoming the strongest both physically & mentally I have been in years! Later that same year I wanted to grow my knowledge of fitness instruction so I earned my certifications in Barre Above & Group Fitness. I became a certified instructor so I can bring that same energy & encouragement to other people in our community helping them start or continue their journey to become the best version of themselves. Cheering for & encouraging people to keep going and crush goals is what I was created to do!
