OUR TEAM

Clara ALBORS

Owner, Physical Therapist

Dr. Clara earned her undergraduate and doctoral degrees from the University of Miami, completing her DPT in 2018. Originally from Davidson, NC, she moved to Asheville after seven years in Miami to be closer to the mountains and a smaller, more active community. A lifelong dancer, Clara dealt with her own injuries growing up and often felt misunderstood by her care providers, which inspired her to become a physical therapist for others with active lifestyles. She found strength training through MADabolic in 2019 and quickly developed a passion for coaching. Clara brings a unique blend of clinical skill and personal experience to her work. When she’s not in the clinic, she enjoys hiking, international travel, yoga, crocheting, and spending time with her dog.

zaida sykes

Physical Therapist

Dr. Zaida earned her undergraduate degree from MCPHS University and her doctorate from the University of Miami in 2018, the same year she also completed her Pilates Teacher Training. In 2019, she and her husband began travel physical therapy while living in a tiny home. After giving birth to her first son in 2023 and recovering from an unavoidable c-section, she became passionate about helping other women through pregnancy and postpartum rehab. Zaida brings clinical expertise, personal experience, and empathy to every client she works with. Outside of work, she enjoys hiking, yoga, shuffle dancing, hooping, wood burning, and attending music festivals. She also runs “Trance & Techno,” an electronic music brand that explores genre history, highlights artists, and shares dance videos.

Cody kenly

Physical Therapist

Dr. Cody was born and raised in Maryland and earned his Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from the University of Maryland, Baltimore in 2019. After graduating, he spent several years traveling the country as a physical therapist, working in California, Oregon, and North Carolina. During a contract in Asheville, he quickly fell in love with the city and made it home in 2024. As a former travel PT, Cody noticed a gap in how traditional rehab addresses the real needs of athletic clients. He’s excited to work with a team that prioritizes performance-based care at The Everyday Athlete Physical Therapy & Wellness. Outside the clinic, Cody enjoys running and hiking the trails, rock climbing, lifting, and spending time with his energetic pup, Caamp.
