Resident Spotlight
Very often, people assume that the role one takes of teacher, or student, is exclusive. While it may be true that students show up to be led and motivated by the teacher, it should also be noted that the human experience allows for the reciprocation of that inspiration to move freely between student to teacher. Today we are shedding a light on two individuals that we have gotten the pleasure of getting to know during our workouts at Circa in DTLA. Mark and Molly were nominated by Instructor Hector, because he found inspiration in both of them on and off the saddle.
For starters, lets talk about their commitment to their wellness. Both lead very busy active lives and always make time to put in some work at the gym, are regulars at our classes, and meal prep together from home to stay on track with their health/fitness goals. On the saddle, Mark and Molly really know what it means to push their limits while still having fun during Spin Class. We want to give you a chance to get to know them a little more so we asked them to be our featured residents this month. Enjoy the read!
Hello Friends,
Mark and Molly here!
We’re a young couple who’ve been together for almost 5 years after first meeting as seniors at Elon University in North Carolina (go Phoenix!). After graduating, we both had dreams of sunny Los Angeles, and were able to move in together for the first time in November of 2019. Individually, Molly loves gardening, road trips, and keeping up with her self-help podcasts, while Mark prefers to spend time listening to comedians and reading up on philosophy. But where we really shine is together! We both love cooking (as a team), socializing with friends, and most recently, physical fitness. With both of us working from home (Molly is a social media influencer and Mark works in commercial real estate), there’s no better way to wrap up a long day than exercising our bodies!
We’ve been in LA since 2019 and living in Circa since 2020. When we first toured Circa we instantly fell in love. The incredible workout options, particularly the complimentary classes with Yogis on the Move, completely drew us in. We couldn’t stop fantasizing about an apartment that is not only a beautiful home, but encourages a healthy and active lifestyle as well. With tri-weekly fitness classes and a state of the art gym just an elevator ride away, there would never be an excuse to skip a workout again. We are so thankful for the many ways Circa has changed our lives for the better.

Before living at Circa and utilizing Yogis on the Move classes we both stayed somewhat fit, although not to the level we were satisfied with. It was challenging to get to the gym in our previous apartment complex, and we really prefer to exercise in group workout settings. Once we attended our first Yogis on the Move class we were hooked - and our excitement from the classes had a snowball effect that led us to regular individual gym workouts as well.
Mark actually attended the first Yogis on the Move class with Hector for Thursday spin and came back home raving about what a great workout and experience it was. He encouraged Molly to attend next week’s session and the rest is history - we’ve been going for about 6 months straight with no plan of slowing down!
Warm regards,
Molly & Mark :)
