Jessica Suver (Head Coach of West LA Athletics) was collegiate Division 1 Rower and started CrossFit shortly after college. Competing at the Regional Level from 2010-2016 and competing at the CrossFit Games in 2013 on Paradiso CrossFit’s Team. Through this experience Jess learned that though she loves to compete, she loves coaching and programming even more. She programmed for Group Class and the competitive team at Paradiso CrossFit from 2016-2021 and will continue to bring her programming expertise to the West LA Athletics team. Jess believes in the CrossFit methodology that our needs differ by degree not kind. This means an elite athlete and a grandma can participate in the same class with the same programming but one may be working on squatting to a chair while the other may be doing back squat reps at 300 pounds. These experiences create community and belonging and the push of seeing others work hard makes all of us just a little bit better.
