Our Story
Two sisters,
one studio.
ALYN, pronounced "align", was founded by sisters Chelsea Thiessen and Ashlee Blenkhorn to bring a newer approach to movement and wellness to the community they live in.
The Founders
Chelsea and Ashlee.
Ashlee is a STOTT PILATES® Instructor who teaches on the floor; Chelsea runs the studio behind the scenes, from operations and systems to the client experience. Together they are building a welcoming space where every client, from competitive athletes to those just beginning their wellness journey, feels supported, challenged, and empowered.
They believe movement is medicine, and that a studio should feel thoughtful and community-focused for the people who train in it and for the team who teach in it.
The Studio
An elevated experience,
not a typical gym.
Small class sizes, precise instruction, and a space designed to feel calm from the moment you step in. Every class draws on the full method, so your practice keeps developing instead of repeating.
Alongside group classes, the team teaches private one-on-one and duo sessions, including rehabilitation and injury-prevention work. You'll find us at 114 Centre St N in Sundre, Alberta.
Come move with us.
First classes run September 8. The schedule opens for booking September 1. Your first class is one booking away. We'll meet you at your level.
