Ari Herzig

they/them/theirs
Assistant Head Coach

Ari doesn’t remember what exactly made them first walk into JPCF, but they are super grateful that they did. Being nonbinary, and with most fitness spaces being very rooted in the gender binary, they never felt like fitness was for them. At JPCF, Ari found a space where they were able to explore and appreciate what their body was physically capable of in a way that they’d never felt comfortable doing before. Their goal as a coach is to help athletes push themselves mentally and physically while in a supportive and safe space. Ari is a big fan of burpee box jump overs, 3D printing, the Matrix (yes, even the sequels), and collecting all sorts of useless facts by listening to far too many podcasts.
