Emalie Stepan

Emalie started CrossFit in January 2016. Her college friends got her to her first class, but it was the challenge, the community, and the values that made her fall in love with the sport. CrossFit helped her overcome the body image toxicity that so many women struggle with, and the more she focused on what she could do, the more comfortable she felt in her skin. That passion pushed her to become a coach in December 2019 and over the past five years, she's coached at three different gyms and gotten her L2 certification.
