Owner, Corrective Movement Specialist, ACE CPT, Precision Nutrition Master Health Coach In February of 2025 Kris transitioned into being the Owner of CrossFit Longmont Kris is passionate about coaching people who want to get stronger, no matter their challenges. For 15 years she had debilitating hip pain nobody was able to diagnose. She saw provider after provider, and none of them made meaningful progress. Strength training and CrossFit were what kept her pain under control and helped her function through all of it, until she was finally diagnosed with FAI and underwent two hip surgeries. It's the reason she does the work she does now. She's put in over 60 hours of continuing education in corrective exercise, spent a year building a return-to-sport program inside a physical therapy and sports performance clinic in Boulder, and became a certified Precision Nutrition Master Health Coach because she knows the whole person matters. Earlier in her career she coached strength and conditioning for Olympic and professional athletes at Velocity Sports Performance, and built an in-house S&C program from scratch as Program Director at a 4,500-member gym. She's been lifting for over 30 years now, going back to her black belt training in Taekwondo in college. She took ownership of CrossFit Longmont in February 2025. She wanted to build the gym she needed back when she was still looking for answers- an integrated health and fitness facility where providers share knowledge to help you get the best results quickly.
