As most of my friends in my Crossfit community know, I always love and enjoy Crossfit more than any other type of fitness regimen. I’ve avidly trained in different kinds of fitness regimens but nothing compares to the benefits and the apparent progress I’ve gained as an athlete by doing “constantly varied functional movement executed in high intensity” which is the very soul of Crossfit. I’ve been a crossfitter since 2015 and this sport of fitness has afforded me tremendous opportunities to stay on top of my game in the field of health and fitness as well as open doors to test myself as an athlete by competing in many different Crossfit competitions, meet different people that share the same passion I have, and most of all, help others in their fitness journey. I am an educator by profession so putting both my training as a teacher and my passion and knowledge in Crossfit, gives me that insatiable desire to use my coaching acumen to help people get better and feel better each day they show up in the gym and embrace that new level of fitness experience to make it part of their lifestyle. Winning in a competition is great but helping people achieve the goals they thought are beyond reach is far more rewarding; and coaching is a great avenue to satiate that passion. I can’t wait to be part of your successful fitness journey!

From growing up around ex pro athletes, to being a “coach’s kid” and, of course, being an athlete herself, Jordan has a deep rooted passion for both sports & fitness. It goes without saying that being competitive is second nature to her. She began her coaching journey at a young age by training & giving lessons to young and rising competitive athletes in softball. This also led her to train talented gymnasts. After hanging up the cleats and jerseys, it started to slowly take a toll on her identity in which she decided to join CrossFit in 2017 and hasn’t looked back. It’s offered her a new (and more intense) level of training where she also gets to compete again. She’s learned you not only reach new peaks physically, but mentally as well. Her goal is to train and develop you into being the best version of yourself (in all aspects) while also instilling that same sense of drive and passion for fitness and success in both the sporting world & daily life.
