MEET THE UPSIDE DOWN CREW 💚
On the 1st of every month, we’ll be introducing you to one of the amazing instructors who make The Upside Down what it is. 🥰
You’ll get to know the people behind your favourite classes and learn a little more about them. Some of you know our instructors really well, while others may only know them from their name on the schedule. So we thought it was time to change that!
First up is Grayson! 😊
A huge thank you to Scott Humber Photography for such an amazing photoshoot! 📸 We are absolutely in love with how the photos turned out, and Cape Spear was the most incredible backdrop for it all. 🌊✨
Thank you for capturing us and The Upside Down so beautifully! 💚
