Meet the Ignite Team
Tina Reis
​My name is Tina, and I moved to Utah in 2015 to teach skiing at Deer Valley. I started coaching mountain biking a few years later and quickly realized how naturally the two sports connect.
Both rely on body awareness, balance, and the rhythm of movement—especially when momentum and centrifugal force come into play.
I love helping riders find that flow and watching the moment something clicks as they move from hesitation to confidence. Mountain biking brings me a sense of focus, freedom, and connection to the outdoors, and I love watching that same sense of growth develop in others.
​
I have been coaching for 10 years and am PMBIA certified. Being part of this community and helping people expand their comfort zone is what makes coaching so rewarding for me.

Growing up as one of nine kids, I had to fight to get my dad's attention and the way to do that was to go biking, hiking, and canyoneering with him. I learned early on the thrill of adventure and the joy of the outdoors.
As a personal trainer, PMBIA certified mountain bike instructor, and life and wellness coach, I’m passionate about helping you build and overcome fears through mountain biking, hiking, and exploring.
It's never too late to try something new, and I’m here to ensure you have a blast while developing your skills. Let embark on this exciting journey together!

I love to play outside. Nothing makes me feel more alive than outdoor adventure. While raising 4 kids, adventure has filled my cup and kept me sane!
​​
My favorite part of outdoor adventure is sharing the joy with others! I have worked as an adventure guide in Costa Rica and various camps across the US. I have coached mountain bike and ski teams and taught numerous adventure clinics. I am a nationally certified PSIA ski instructor and PMBIA mountain bike instructor.
​
I worked as a Certified Nurse Assistant and Registered Nurse for over two decades and learned that my passion is teaching people how to embrace a healthy lifestyle and make choices that lead to lasting wellness.
Now as a National Board Certified Intrinsic Health and Wellness coach I love mentoring others on their health journey.
Ivana Radu
Born and raised in the Carpathian Mountains, I’ve always felt the most energy when surrounded by nature — whether hiking, biking, or skiing.
Movement has been my way to stay balanced and connected with the outdoors, keeping the body and mind happy. After moving to Utah, I discovered a deep love for Nordic skiing — the perfect blend of rhythm, endurance, and peace.
As a PSIA member (since 2002), I’m grateful to share my experience and passion with others, and I hope to inspire the same appreciation for our beautiful outdoors.
When we move through nature, we move closer to ourselves.
Deb Lovci
As a veteran in the ski industry for nearly of 30 years, I have worn many ski hats and chased storms as a backcountry ski guide and PSIA xc ski instructor
I live,love and play in the Wasatch Mountains.
When the snow melts, I enjoy exploring our trail systems on my mountain bike or in my running shoes.
Snack of choice is black licorice.
Ski preference is classic & tele skiing.
One thing you would never guess after meeting me is: I love to sew.
When I am not enjoying the mountains, you can find me spending time with my 94 year old mom.
Sarah Lundskog
I rediscovered my passion for biking in midlife as a way to connect with my children. Memories of the joy I felt riding on dirt hills and jumps as a kid flooded back, but along with them came fear and doubt.
Everything changed when I found Ignite. Their clinics transformed my riding and my life, boosting my confidence both on and off the bike. When winter arrived, I couldn't wait to join a ski clinic, where I discovered my love for skate skiing.
​
You know that feeling when you discover something amazing? The first thing you want to do is share it! So I began helping others on their journey, and the joy of watching someone come alive as they move their body in new ways, watching their face light up as they realize they really CAN do it is truly priceless.
​
Now, I am dedicated to inspiring and empowering women and as a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach and with two decades of experience as a registered nurse I've learned it's all about embracing life fully and confidently.
How it all started
Ignite | Our Story
Ignite Movement began in 2021 with three friends living in Heber City. We love to be outside doing fun things and our beautiful valley provides the perfect playground for adventure every season of the year.
​
Whatever the season calls for--skiing, biking, hiking, swimming, backpacking--we love to get our girlfriends together and head outside! We have each had amazing mentors in our lives who have taught and encouraged us to do all the fun things we love to do. We have taken it to the next level and become trained coaches in numerous adventure skills. Now, we want to share our love, experience, and passion with other women who are ready for new adventure.
​
As women we all face endless pressures in our lives. Often we give more then we take and easily end up depleted. Adventure can fill you with new energy and joy for life. We hope our Ignite Movement events will be fun, safe spaces for women to try new things, learn new skills, discover new passion, and find confidence in their own abilities.
​
Women learn best from women! We will guide/coach you with patience, understanding and expertise.
​
We can't wait to meet you!
