Jonny Ortiz

Stoked on life and always chasing a goal, I am always looking for ways to grow the sport and spread the stoke. There is not a better role in life than helping give our members the best hour of their day. I often feel as if I am living a dream, in my career as a paddle sports professional I have seen many places, taught many people, and touched a life or two. Teaching has always been as huge passion of mine as I am an Instructor Trainer for the American Canoe Association, a few years ago I said to myself I'd like to coach CrossFit too. Taking teaching and learning methodologies from my career and applying them in the box has been a great way to contribute to our team. When I am not in the box, you'll find me mountain biking in Pisgah National Forest, living out of a kayak in the Grand Canyon or Stand Up Paddleboarding with my 18-month-old daughter.

Give back to the community and provide value for our members to take the fitness to the outdoors.
