Sam Rubin

Fitness has always been a part of Sam Rubin's life. Growing up with a fitness instructor for a mom, she was introduced to the importance of movement and an active lifestyle at an early age. And that mom just happens to be MoveStudio's own Carey Shore! Together, Sam and Carey make up our mother-daughter teaching duo.

A dual citizen of the United States and Canada, Sam earned her undergraduate degree in Ontario before moving to Austin, where she recently completed her Master's degree in Journalism and Media at The University of Texas at Austin. Along the way, she discovered a growing passion for yoga that inspired her to pursue her yoga teaching certification. Her interest in movement continued to expand into modern Pilates, leading her to earn a reformer Pilates certification as well.

What began as a personal love of fitness has grown into a passion for teaching. Sam enjoys sharing what she's learned with others, helping people discover new ways to challenge themselves, build strength, and feel good in their bodies. She brings a fresh perspective, enthusiasm, and a lifelong appreciation for fitness to her classes.

Outside the studio, Sam is a devoted animal lover. Between family members, they have six dogs and one cat, so there's never a dull moment! She enjoys dog training, reading, watching movies and reality TV, exploring new restaurants and coffee shops, and just about anything fitness-related. And if there's one thing you should know about Sam, it's that she has a serious sweet tooth. Candy and desserts are always welcome!
