We are extremely saddened to announce that earlier this week, Dylan Thompson passed away unexpectedly at the age of 30.

Dylan was a great friend to all of us and had an immense impact on everyone he touched. Dylan spent 3 years as Sr. Global Performance Manager for F45 HQ and joined Hillcrest Health in June 2021.

In his work life Dylan loved what he did and he did it to the absolute fullest, he lived and breathed Hillcrest Health, F45, and most importantly making a difference in people’s lives through fitness. Whether that was his teammates or our members. He was incredibly instrumental to the success of F45 Training studios across the globe, was a man extremely dedicated to his craft and his colleagues, and will be sorely missed by all of us.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Dylan’s family and especially his four little girls in Justin, Texas. We are working with Dylan's family and with F45 Training HQ in the coming days to develop a network-wide fundraising initiative to support Dylan's family now and into the future. We will circulate more information as and when it becomes available.

Please join us in our thoughts and prayers for Dylan, his family, his friends, and his loved ones.

A HUGE congrats🥳 to our very own Brett Horchar, Head Trainer at F45 Wexford, for coming in 1st place at the 2022 CrossFit Games in the Men’s Neuro Division. This is Brett’s second year in a row winning the title of The Fittest Man on Earth🏆💪 An absolutely incredible achievement!

Brett, your strength and dedication are an inspiration to all of us and we are honored to have you on the team.

Join us in congratulating Brett 🥳⬇️

Today for we’re featuring our Associate Regional Performance Manager, Sommer!!

Sommer started coaching at F45 Fells Point in April of 2021, and immediately fell in love with the programming. She got moved to Head Trainer and was able to develop a strong and amazing community at our Fells Point location.

💪What’s your favorite F45 workout?

My favorite F45 workout would probably be Checkmate or Socal. I love a good hybrid class. It allows me to challenge myself with weightlifting at a higher intensity.

🌮What’s your favorite food?

Favorite food would have to be tacos. Literally could eat them every day!

🎬What’s your favorite movie?

My favorite movie might have to be Burlesque, it is just one movie I could put on any day of the week.

🐶Do you have any pets?

I have a cutie Pitbull named Bane because I am also team batman.

🎶Favorite type of music?

I love some good R&B music, but I could also sing you every Morgan Wallen song so big country girl these days too.

🏈What do you like to do outside of work?

Hobbies are eating Tacos and all things that go with it, working out with the members at F45, and cheering for the best team in the NFL, the Baltimore Ravens!

🤍Why do you love what you do?

I strive for consistency and am dedicated to working hard. I love working for this company and making sure we develop the best portfolio to benefit as many lives as we can through F45’s programming and our coaching staff. I also love helping others improve their health and get stronger. Every time someone gets a push up or lifts a little heavier it empowers an entire studio! Community is so important to me and we have a great one here that just keeps growing and crushing goals one day at a time. So I am looking forward to continuing this growth!

Drop Sommer some love (or Baltimore taco recs🌮) in the comments!!

Say hello👋 to Rachel, one of our newest Regional Performance Managers!

💪How did you get into the fitness industry?

Fitness has always been a big part of my life. I started consistently working out and bettering myself when I was in college. Getting in a great sweat sesh everyday became part of my lifestyle. I graduated from the Fashion Institute of Technology and got a job as a Buyer in NYC. I worked in the fashion industry for about two years but I realized it didn't make me truly happy. Shortly after that, I started my fitness career and worked my way up the corporate ladder for 4 1/2 years. I love to challenge myself and that is why I accepted the Regional Performance Manager role with Hillcrest Health. Helping staff and companies grow is what drives me.

🍩What is your favorite food?

I am an ABSOLUTE foodie! I love everything, especially donuts and great Italian food. Food is the reason I have to work out so hard :)

🎬What is your favorite movie?

I'd have to say Mean Girls. But I am also a HUGE Harry Potter fan. I can rewatch all the movies over and over again. I was that girl that went to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and bought a whole outfit to look like a student of Slytherin House.

✈️What are your hobbies outside of fitness?

Besides working out everyday I love to cook and travel. I love trying out new recipes and making classics healthy.

This picture was taken 1 year ago on Dylan’s first day joining the Hillcrest Health Fam. In such a short amount of time, Dylan has changed the lives of so many people – both at Hillcrest and beyond.

For those of you that may not know, our headquarters is located just minutes from the nation’s capital.

Washington DC’s cherry blossoms reached peak bloom last month, and the city looked absolutely gorgeous covered in pink🌸

For , we take a moment to recognize the beauty of our planet and how we can continue to work together to conserve and move toward a future🌏

It’s which is why this very special Hillcrest Health leader needs a HUGE shoutout.

Say hello👋 to Dylan Thompson, our Vice President of Operations.

TGIF(45) 🥳🥳

We wanted to give a HUGE congrats to our member, Jiyeon, for her incredible dedication and hard work throughout the latest

She was the Challenge Winner🏆 in Tysons, losing a total of 14.5 lbs and 9.9% Body Fat!!

Seeing our members before & after pics is so inspiring - keep em’ coming & congratulate Jiyeon in the comments below🔥🥳

Say hello to Luke, our Regional Performance Manager👋

🔹What’s your training philosophy?

Don’t tell me the sky’s the limit when there are footprints on the moon!

🔹Who or what had a major influence in your life?

As cheesy as this sounds, Superman has had the greatest influence in my life. The idea of leading by example and doing what I can to leave the world a better place than I found it are guiding principles for my life.

🔹What is your favorite food?

I’m a sucker for cheeseburgers and ‘zza, but it’s like checks and balances. You can only take out as much as you put in. So, if I want to enjoy a good burger today, I’m going to have to deposit some hard work into my account tomorrow!

🔹What got you into fitness and personal training?

After leaving the Navy, people would ask me for fitness advice or to go to the gym with them. That is when I realized that helping people become the best versions of themselves is truly a passion of mine. So, I got certified as a personal trainer and started my career following my passion.

🔹What keeps you motivated?

Doing everything I can to continually learn and grow. Knowing that I am growing into the best version of myself fires me up because in turn I can better help others do the same.

🔹What are your hobbies outside of fitness?

Comic books! I love reading comic books. I may be built like Superman on the outside, but I am a great big nerd at heart.

Thanks for all you do for the Hillcrest Health Fam, Luke💪

Drop him some love (and comic book recs!) in the comments!!

We’re not a team without you, and we’re so proud that this is OUR TEAM💪

As Russian attacks on Ukraine continue, and the humanitarian crisis grows, we want to step up and help.  

On Saturday, March 12th, all Hillcrest Health studios will be hosting Heroes Hollywood classes. 

All classes on March 12th will be open to both members and the public. Classes are free for non-members, as long as they contribute a donation of their choosing. We encourage our members to bring friends and loved ones to join our community in supporting Ukraine.

We will be gratefully accepting donations at all classes that day, as well as in the studio leading up to the event.

Children are the least responsible for armed conflict in Ukraine, but they suffer most from its consequences. 100% of our in-studio donations will help UNICEF ensure that Ukraine’s children have access to water, nutrition, health care, education and protection.

In addition to the donations collected across our studios, Hillcrest Health will also be making a contribution.

We appreciate the support of our community💙💛

This week, we had the pleasure of hosting our very first town hall with the entire Hillcrest Health family.

It was an opportunity for us to reflect on how far we’ve come as a team and how much we’ve accomplished thus far.

Day in and day out, this team lives out our mission to help more people lead healthier, happier and more empowered lives through the world’s best group workout experience.

We are grateful, honored and lucky to work with each and every one of you.

This is only the beginning💪

Medicine balls are red,
Kettlebells are blue,
We’re in the business,
To change lives with you.

❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️

Best wishes on Valentine’s Day to our teams, investors and members that make this F45 Family so sweet.

Wishing you good times with loved ones!!
