SPENGA CREW Spotlight: Cassia
Cassia has been a fitness enthusiast and entrepreneur from an early age. At 10 she designed her first workout with her sister, it came with a hand drawn booklet and audio tape. Over the last 30 years she’s enjoyed and followed every workout trend from Jazzercise to HIIT. Whether she’s had to workout at home because of raising babies or at a gym she’s been enjoying and studying fitness throughout her lifetime.
Creating business opportunities has always been her gift, as a child you could often find her washing cars, cleaning houses, and babysitting for her neighbors. In 2004 She received her MA degree in Psychology and created a successful behavioral health treatment center in downtown Santa Cruz where she and her team help those struggling with mental health and addiction.
Cassia’s favorite part of life is raising her two boys ages 11 and 13. They have an active and adventurous family including snowboarding, mountain biking and camping trips. She is happily committed to her life partner and best friend Shane. Cassia also notes that she is deeply supported by her family and lovely girlfriends. Now she is ready to actualize her dream of helping people obtain their fitness goals at SPENGA Santa Cruz. It has been an uphill challenge opening during a pandemic, but come this Summer, it’s game on!
