Coach Thomas Finklea has been a CrossFitter since 2013 and specializes in General Physical Preparation and Programming for Masters Athletes. His favorite thing about coaching is “being in the moment with my athletes – seeing the athletes navigate the process of success and struggle and being a resource to help them train effectively.”

As an avid martial artist with over 20 years experience, Thomas’s experiences instructing Black Belt Soo Bahk Do and Tae Kwo Do  have fostered a desire to teach fitness as a lifetime endeavor. “I would rather be training or coaching CrossFit than almost anything else,” he says.

When Thomas isn’t training, he is busy going to the beach, catching sunsets with his wife, or going to Angels baseball games.
