Kelly has spent her free time in Group Fitness classes since she was a teenager. She absolutely loves the community and energy of exercising with a group of people, it’s motivating and exciting! With each move across the country, Kelly found a gym with a great group fitness schedule. While in California she branched out of her comfort zone and joined a private boxing gym where she learned all the fundamentals of boxing and kickboxing which is a true passion of hers. She even did a little amateur sparring in the ring! While living in Arizona she branched out further from her “cardio junkie” mode and started to give yoga a try and immediately became addicted to it’s benefits to both the mind and the body. She is a true believer that it can change your life, as well as improve performance in all areas of exercise and fitness training.
When she moved back to Brevard county in 2012 she decided it was finally time to really go for it and become a certified instructor; it’s been the best thing she’s ever done! Throughout this process she has become a Group Fitness Instructor, Sunrise Yoga Instructor and Personal Trainer with AFAA, is certified in Rainbow Kids Yoga, and is a Les Mills BodyPump instructor. Most recently Kelly was also Certified as a EPIC Interval Training Coach!
Kelly is so happy she finally overcame her fear of instructing because it has changed her life!
Hello! My name is Tracy Crockett. I live here in Melbourne, Florida with my hubby, husky and two boys who are very active in Travel Baseball, Littte League and Flag Football. I grew up in the midwest and was very active in sports as well. I enjoyed Volleyball, Basketball, Track and Cheerleading. I have always loved hiking, biking, rafting…anything outdoors!
As a young adult I focused on my career, traveling and just living life! Once we decided to start a family I knew I wanted to be the best mom I could be. I decided to start my own fitness journey after I had my first son. Like many do I started at the back of the class just hoping to survive each class. I was lucky enough to have instructors that really motived the entire class no matter the level or where you were in the room. With that came success and was so empowering. That inspired me to want to help others in their fitness journey so I became an AFAA certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor and most recently a certified Epic coach! Which is super exciting! I love seeing people succeed, crush their goals and set new ones. We are never done growing and improving!
In the last few years I have discovered I enjoy Obstacle Course Racing. It has helped me grow not only physically but mentally. The camaraderie and confidence it instills in every person who completes a race is amazing and addicting. No matter if it is your first race or 50th. I have competed in several local races and qualified and competed in the OCR World Championships twice and North American OCR Championships once. Such an amazing experience. I am looking forward to helping you reach your goals no matter what they are! Success is within reach!

Judy McManus has always had a passion for sports and fitness, focusing on soccer, track, and basketball in high school and continuing to play recreational soccer until the birth of her first child in 2010. She took up crossfit, bootcamps, and HIITs as her primary forms of exercise until she discovered OCRs in 2018. Judy ran her first OCR with Jackie and Steve Schmoll in 2018 and has been hooked ever since. Within her first year of racing competitively, she placed 3rd in the Spartan US National Series for her Age Group and competed in the Spartan World Championship in Tahoe, CA. Judy is a 5x Spartan podium award winner and has found a new passion in trail running.
Outside of OCRs, Judy is a FL Gator, graduating with a Doctor of Pharmacy degree and working at Pfizer Pharmaceuticals in Medical Affairs. She has two young boys who keeps her busy with balancing work, their extracurricular activities, and training. Her reason for coaching is “I enjoy helping people challenge themselves to reach new goals, whatever that might be for an individual. For myself, I was never a collegiate level athlete and only started to really push myself in my mid-forties. My first road race was a half marathon which I had only started running 3 months prior. I can do more pull-ups, run farther, and lift more weights now than ever before. Don’t let your mind create limits, at any age people can start to see what their true potential is!”

My name is Joanna Pettis and I am 41 years old. I live in PSJ with my husband, Jim, and my 15 year old daughter, Kierston. I grew up in Merritt Island and graduated from Merritt Island High School, where I was a cheerleader and volleyball/softball player. I graduated from UCF with a degree in Early Childhood Education in 2000 have been teaching at Atlantis Elementary ever since. In 2010, I decided I also wanted to be a group fitness instructor so I completed my certification though AFAA. I began teaching classes such as cardio kickboxing, Strong, Core & More, and HIIT. In 2018, I also received my GEAR certification and started to instruct indoor cycling classes.
I absolutely love instructing/coaching classes and there’s nothing better than sweating and getting stronger with others. Through fitness, I have met some amazing people and some of my best friends. It is so exciting to see people reaching goals and doing things that they didn’t think they could do. Regardless of fitness level – from beginner to elite – there is always room for growth and improvement. I believe that the camaraderie of a group fitness setting fosters accountability and more enjoyment of workouts. And, although each person has their own fitness journey, group fitness gives us a little push; whether it’s friendly competition, inspiration or motivation.
I’ve always been adventurous and had an active lifestyle with a passion for fitness. In 2012, I discovered “mud runs” which were relatively new to the fitness and running world. Over the years these fun “mud runs” have become more competitive and have evolved into obstacle course races (OCR’s). These OCR’s provide motivation for my own personal workouts as the obstacles require strength, endurance, agility, grip strength, balance, and mental grit. As an avid OCR athlete, I have competed in over 95 events including the OCR World Championships 3 times, the United States OCR Championships, and the North American OCR Championships twice. Many of my own personal fitness goals currently revolve around my passion for OCR. Whatever your fitness goals are, I look forward to helping you reach them!
