| Sponsored Athlete (2026–2027) | Next on our roster... Dean Geiger!

Dean is a junior at Dixon High School where he is actively involved in Student Council and Key Club. He is a dedicated two-sport athlete, competing in both Cross Country and Track & Field while training year-round.

Dean’s success began early, breaking a 5-minute mile in 7th grade and earning All-State recognition with five medals across cross country and track.

His high school career has continued to build on that momentum. As a sophomore, he ran a 4:25 in the 1600-meter, anchored the 4x800 relay team to a 6th place finish at the IHSA Track & Field State Championship, and placed 9th at the USATF Junior Olympics, earning All-American honors.

During the cross country season, Dean led the Dixon High School boys team at the 2A State Championship with a time of 14:40.3, contributing to their State Championship title. He also ran an unofficial 4:22 in the 1600 at the Meet the Dukes event and has since set a new indoor school record in the 800-meter with a time of 1:57.59.

Looking ahead, Dean’s goals include running a 1:54 in the 800, helping his team achieve a 7:45 in the 4x800 relay, and breaking 4:20 in the 1600.

“I want to thank Dr. Lauren and the Rituals team for helping keep me in prime shape to accomplish my goals this season — your support means a great deal and plays a big role in my success.”

Join us in cheering Dean on this season!

Your back called — it wants you to read this before you grab the shovel. 👩‍🌾

April in the Midwest is for two things: gardening and wondering why it’s still 40 degrees. Inside our latest newsletter, we’re sharing how to "plant" better eating habits and updates on events for this month.

Oh, and did we mention we’re moving?

✨ Next up on Team Rituals… Claire DeRycke!

Claire is a multi-sport high school athlete playing both volleyball and softball, with a strong focus this year on building confidence, sharpening fundamentals, and continuing to grow as a leader on and off the court.

She’ll be competing in Iowa Regional Championships, high school regional matchups, and Gold-Level 17–18u volleyball tournaments and qualifiers, challenging herself against high-level competition.

Claire’s accomplishments already speak for themselves, including being named an All-Conference Volleyball Player (2025), along with numerous club and travel softball team wins and individual MVP and player awards.

What makes Claire such a great fit for Team Rituals goes beyond her performance: it’s her mindset, her leadership, and the impact she’s already making in the community, as well as her eventual goal of becoming a Physical Therapist.

"Rituals has had such an incredible impact on my life… my friends and family can't get me to stop talking about it."

We’re proud to support Claire this season and can’t wait to see everything she accomplishes 💙

🏐 Featuring our first Sponsored Athlete of the 2026–2027 season, Callia Plotner! 🏐

Callia is an 8th grade student-athlete at Challand Middle School and a member of the Class of 2030. She plays middle blocker ( #36) for the Rockford Starz 14U National volleyball team, one of the top-ranked programs in the region.

Callia has been playing competitive volleyball for four years, competing in both school and club programs. Her current team is ranked 9th in the state out of more than 290 teams, with an impressive 37–7 record and an 84.1% win percentage.

One of her standout accomplishments includes helping her team secure the Rockin’ Rockford AAU Grand Prix 14U Club Division Championship, competing against top teams from across the Midwest. During her school season, she was also a key contributor to her 8th Grade Gold team’s undefeated 29–0 season.

Standing at 5’9” with a 24.3” vertical, Callia brings a strong presence at the net. She is known for her positive attitude, coachability, and strong work ethic, consistently striving to improve and support her team. Her court awareness allows her to make an impact on both offense and defense, with a strong ability to read plays, place shots strategically, and time blocks effectively.

Outside of volleyball, Callia enjoys spending time with friends and being involved in her community, including youth group. She especially values the relationships she builds with her teammates and the shared experience of working toward a common goal.

Looking ahead, Callia plans to continue developing her skills with the goal of playing college volleyball in the Carolina coastal region, where she also hopes to pursue a degree in marine biology. We are so excited to welcome such a dedicated young athlete to our sponsorship roster, and look forward to cheering her on this year!

As we get ready to announce the 2026 Rituals Sponsored Athletes, I realized many people may only know me for my work in women’s health and pregnancy.

But my roots in chiropractic actually started with athletes and sports performance.

I’ve had the privilege of working with world champion athletes in triathlon, climbing, cycling, and ultrarunning, and my time living and working in Boulder, CO deeply shaped how I practice today.

Athletics have always been part of my life too. I’ve completed multiple 50k, 50-mile, and 100-mile races, half Ironmans, and even attempted 200 miles. And if the Olympics are on… I’m completely obsessed.

I love working with athletes because they know their bodies so well. Sometimes the smallest change can make the biggest difference.

Like many people, I lost a little of that athletic identity while building my business and raising a family—but I’m back in training.

This year I’m taking on my first HYROX, and even better—my mom is my doubles partner. My goal is to complete three HYROX events this year, run Schuetzen Nein (9-hour race), and pace friends at several ultras.

I understand the drive, dedication, sacrifice, and toll that sport can take on the body.

Which is exactly why I love supporting athletes.

And why I’m so excited to introduce the 2026 Rituals Sponsored Athletes

Announcement coming soon!
