Franziska

Veloburn Coach

Since moving to Zurich, Franziska’s interest in health, physiology and nutrition has been steadily growing. She loves all kinds of sports and is always open to trying something new – from getting seriously sweaty in the studio to recharging outside in nature. She started her fitness career at Keiser Training, creating personal training programs for her clients there. Later, after an unfortunate knee injury, she was forced to explore new ways of moving her own body. This lead her to discover the world of indoor cycling at Velocity, and eventually, to sign up for the Veloburn Academy and become an indoor cycling coach herself. In her Veloburn rides, she wants to create a high energy space where you can leave your daily grind behind to focus on just you and your body. She wants you to challenge your body, challenge your mind and leave feeling renewed and loaded with endorphins!

Nadine

Power & Stretch Coach

Fitness was always Nadine’s “big love”. As a child, she used to dance in every style, from HipHop to Ballet. She even went to New York City to train as a dancer for some time. Eventually her fitness routine shifted away from dance and more towards working out at the gym. She decided to quit her corporate job in Marketing & Communications to focus on her passion for sports and nutrition. She dove right in, attaining a degree in sports and preventive nutrition and is now pursuing a second certificate as a personal trainer. She completed Velocity's Power Academy in the Spring of 2020 while also working at the front desk. She loves teaching Power in addition to other full-body workouts like HIIT and Strength. In her workouts, everyone is able to push themselves to their own personal limits every time, both in-studio or from home.
