Meet our trainer

"I come from a background of being active but never exercising. I didn’t want to do anything that might make me sweat. Upon the insistence of my oldest son, Phillip, I began to do CrossFit in January of 2010. By the end of that year my entire family was involved in CrossFit. In March of 2011, I got my Level 1 Certificate along with my daughter, Lydia. We trained new clients together, in my new gym, using an On Ramp curriculum.

In December 2014 I got my Level 2 Certificate with my son, Nathan. Then in January 2016 I got my CrissFit Kids Certificate with my daughter, Lydia and daughter-in-law, Laura. (Also Laura Meece, Nathan’s wife, not confusing at all.) Then we added a CrossFit Kids program during the summer. We continue to be a family centered gym.

In January 2017 I started studying for my Level 3 exam and in September 2017 I earned my CrossFit Certified Coach (Level 3) certification. This has been a big boost for all of the clients as I learned and corrected faults we didn’t know we had. So many people’s lives have been changed by getting stronger, fitter, more capable, and healthier. That’s why I do this and continue to love seeing progress in everyone’s health.

Besides training people and working out in the gym, even sweating, I enjoy being a member of a quilting group, reading, singing and teaching Sunday School, along with various mission responsibilities at my church."
