Emily Baskin
Emily is a Crossfit Level 1 certified coach, certified group exercise instructor through the American Council on Exercise, and has 3 years experience as a personal trainer at the Department of Justice. Emily has Coach Chris/Tex to thank for introducing her to CrossFit when he put her through a doozy of a 9-minute workout in 2010. It was not until late 2011 that she found her home at CrossFit Balance. Growing up, Emily looked forward to gymnastics practice and weekend soccer games. After co-captaining her collegiate soccer team and earning All-American Strength and Conditioning honors in her senior year, she was searching for a new active outlet to fill the void. She has found that CrossFit elicits the same excitement, and much more day in and day out. She is thrilled to be able to share her joy of movement, help challenge you to discover your own inner beastly athlete, and together prove that anybody and any body can be powerful and strong.
