About Us
Our Story
So how does a place like this come to life? In this case, it began when a personal trainer (co-owner James Hollenkamp) sought yoga classes to balance his interval-training regimen, and a yoga teacher (co-owner Debbie Duryee) sought boot camp classes to increase her strength and cardio. A friendship formed. But the wheels really started turning when Debbie began personal training sessions with James. In the many hours together perfecting squats and bicep curls, they discovered they shared the dream of opening their own studio. Recognizing how much they respected each other's areas of expertise, they knew they wanted to create a place that celebrated a medley of fitness options. They are passionate about teaching, learning, and how varied fitness impacts wellness. They can't wait to share this enthusiasm with you!
What sets us apart.
Crisp is unlike any other fitness studio in Greater Portland. We offer convenience, an inviting ambiance, and all your favorite workouts under one roof: heated vinyasa yoga, boot camp, cycling, personal training, and fusion classes. You'll spend more time enjoying your workouts and less time frenetically traveling from place to place.
Workout from anywhere.
We created Crisp at Home after COVID precautions caused us to limit our in-person class sizes. We always want Crisp classes to be ACCESSIBLE to Crispers, wherever they are. Crispathome.com allows you to workout with your favorite Crisp instructors any time, anywhere.
Crisp fusion classes.
Crisp uniquely offers 90-minute fusion classes that combine different genres of fitness: a boot camp-yoga fusion (45 minutes of boot camp followed by 45 minutes of yoga) and a cycling-yoga fusion (45 minutes of cycling followed by 45 minutes of yoga). These fusion classes only count as a single class on your Crisp pass.
You’re in great hands.
Whichever class you decide to take at Crisp, you can rest assured you're receiving the highest-quality instruction from some of the most experienced, knowledgable, and passionate professionals in the area. We are extremely proud of our skilled and friendly team.
Walking into our beautiful facility, you will immediately sense how different we are. The space is inviting, immaculate, light, and full of good energy. We believe a fitness space should be as enjoyable as the fitness classes themselves. Our facility features a yoga studio, boot camp studio, cycling studio, training area, lockers, three showers, changing rooms, and an inviting lobby to relax in before, after, or in between classes.
