Ali Gassert

Owner/Founder

My mission is to not only help change your body—but to help transform your mind. I believe that true change starts from within, and that you are your own most powerful change agent. When you commit with your mind, your body will follow.

Whether you're just starting your fitness journey or looking to break through a plateau, I’m here to guide, motivate, and celebrate every step you take. Let’s get LIIT together. Mind first, body second.

  • Sabrina Caruso

    Instructor (LIIT Burn, LIIT Ignite)

  • Michelle Hennelly

    Instructor (LIIT Burn)

    Michelle brings high energy and a challenge to every class. She is a coach within the community for high school athletes and you will hear the “never quit” mentality present as you strive to exceed your limits. Michelle has been involved in training athletes since 2018 after she finished her own collegiate career. Although an emphasis on strengthening, Michelle also has a background in competitive dance and she incorporates the proper stretching of hard worked muscles through your exercise with her. As an active person, she also wants clients to build core strength which naturally prevents injury. If you are looking for an instructor who will make you work hard, be efficient, and just feel good, Michelle is your girl.

  • Jesse Moore

    Instructor (LIIT Ignite, LIIT Burn)

    Jess started her yoga journey about 15 years ago. After her first marathon, she knew she needed something to compliment her running training. She tested the waters of yoga and was hooked. She was certified a few years later through a 200 hour NYC YogaWorks NYC program. By trade, Jess has her doctorate in physical therapy and loves the connection between these two worlds. Her classes focus on strength, fitness, and fun. Pushing yourself through traditional yoga poses and sequences with a blend of other exercise types creates an effective and well rounded approach to class.
