About Steph
Stephanie is a former ballerina and triathlete who has always understood the demands of training, and the importance of body maintenance and mobility. She began teaching yoga at YogaFlow SF and Planet Granite in San Francisco, CA. During that time, she also created Endure Yoga, a movement method for recovery and athletic resilience. With a focus on athletes and her own fitness journey, she found CrossFit in 2015, and began coaching at CrossFit Marin.
After moving back to her hometown, she began working with private clients and as a gymnastics coach at SD United. In March of 2020, she became the General Manager of CrossFit Humanity through openings and closings, ownership changes, 100+ person events, community gatherings and so much more. Over the years, she’s also continued to be a student and in December of 2021, passed the CrossFit Level 3 Certification exam to become a Certified CrossFit Coach.
She currently is the Head Coach at Stay Classy CrossFit located in Logan Heights and continues to works with kids, teens, collegiate and professional athletes, and adults in both strength and conditioning, nutrition, flexibility and mobility.
Stephanie also opens up her garage gym, Side Yard Athletics, to Claremont (92111) locals looking for convenient, affordable and trust worthy personal training, yoga and nutrition coaching, close to home.
In addition to coaching, Stephanie also volunteers her time once a month to host a FREE class for The Phoenix, a national sober active community. She also is the Programming Director for the Limitless Fitness Challenge, a functional fitness workout challenge for all abilities and levels, scheduled for September 16th – 17th at Liberty Station in Point Loma.
