However, the life of a teacher can be really exhausting. Allycia always wanted to be the strong woman with the muscles but, she had a hard time staying committed to the gym. So a friend told her to try CrossFit in 2013 as a way to help ease her stress. She took her up on that offer and has never looked back. The CrossFit community solved that problem for her as she quickly began to call other members of the box her family and the box became her hangout. After setting and reaching many goals in CrossFit, the confidence and strength she gained spilled over into other aspects of her life. Now she wants to help other people reach their own fitness and life goals and is excited to join T.E.A.M. University.
