Kanani Karasaki
Kanani was born and raised in Hawai‘i and first fell in love with spin while living in California for college. After moving back home in July 2023, she found the community she’d been searching for at Ride Under the Palms. While she’s used to being a rider, she’s beyond excited to step outside her comfort zone and take on the challenge of becoming an instructor. For Kanani, Ride is where the music takes over, and the beat gives her the strength to move through whatever comes next. Her classes are filled with pop and classic favorites that riders can sing along to, making each ride feel like a dance party. She hopes to not only share her love for Ride, but also build meaningful connections with every rider along the way. Outside the studio, you’ll find her on the water with her paddling club, happy to be outside and surrounded by the beauty of Hawai‘i.
