Melissa Stopka

I started CrossFit in 2014. At the time, I was running 5 days a week and felt I needed more. The challenge was time. I was 38 years old with two children, working a demanding full-time job. One of my friends tried CrossFit and said, “You’re in and out in an hour, and you work on strength and endurance.” I figured it was worth a shot. It has been 8 years, and I’ve never looked back! I started coaching in 2022!

My goal is to influence people's experience at CFPA. I want to do everything I can to make them feel the way I do every time I am here. It doesn't matter when or where you start, the journey is amazing!
