Judy Fitzgerald

Judy Fitzgerald is a certified CrossFit instructor with a 25 year background in the fitness industry. She has a passion for inspiring individuals to meet their fitness goals. Her primary focus and strength is guiding clients in making lifestyle changes so they can experience lifelong health and fitness.

Judy was actively involved in competitive sports during her childhood and adult life including volleyball, gymnastics, basketball, softball, and karate. Her background includes being an aerobics instructor and personal trainer as well as training new aerobic instructors and personal trainers.

After receiving chronic injuries from a car accident which lead to surgeries and ongoing treatments, Judy became even more motivated to continue leading an active and physically fit life.

Coach Erik Berg

Erik Berg

Erik has been involved in sports and fitness for the majority of his life. In high school, Erik played football, wrestled, and was a member of the track team. During all four years of college and while serving in the Marine Corps, Erik played rugby.

Like a lot of people, Erik spent Monday through Friday in the gym focusing on different muscle groups separately on each day. About three years ago, he was introduced to CrossFit while serving overseas. It was not until Erik’s first CrossFit WOD that he realized how weak his fitness level truly was. Since that humbling experience, Erik has completely adopted the CrossFit program. Using CrossFit as his training foundation, Erik has completed a handful of half marathons, Olympic triathlons, one full marathon, and two Ironman 70.3s.

Since being certified as a CrossFit Instructor, Erik has had the opportunity to coach friends and family. Coaching is one of Erik’s passions and he looks forward to the opportunity to help people reach their fitness goals.
