What is OULA’s story?OULA was created in 2010 by Kali Lindner. A graduate of The University of Montana in Missoula. Kali became a certified yoga instructor in Missoula and then received her White Belt in the Nia Technique in Portland, Oregon. Not able to find what she was looking for in a fitness workout, she created it herself in MissOULA, Montana. Turning to her background in ballet, jazz, and modern dance, and her intense love of music, Kali combined the movement of dance, the intensity of aerobic workouts, and the philosophies of yoga and Nia to create OULA – Dancemania for the Soul. OULA is for every age, gender, and fitness level.

If you enjoy music, OULA is for you!
