Meet Our Coaches

CrossFit L2 Trainer / Owner

Terra was never someone who naturally loved the gym, but that all changed in 2013 when she discovered CrossFit. What she thought would be another fitness routine turned out to be something completely different. Within just 30 days, she felt stronger, more energized, and more confident. She was truly motivated to pursue her goals!

Terra began coaching CrossFit in 2016, the year she earned her CrossFit Level 1 Trainer Certification. She continued to grow as a coach by completing her CrossFit Gymnastics Certification in 2019 and earning her CrossFit L2 in 2020. She loves helping people realize what they’re capable of and guiding them through the foundational steps to achieve it.

Outside the gym, you’ll find her spending time with her husband, Jake, and their two kids. She loves staying active, cheering on her kids at their sports, and listening to worship music whenever she can.

Proverbs 3:5-6

 "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths."

He earned his CrossFit Level 2 certification, CrossFit Level 1 Nutrition, multiple CrossFit judges course, and has been coaching and running an affiliate with his wife since 2016. He also serves as a certified Carnivore/Keto Kiltz Health Coach, helping members dial in their nutrition alongside their training. As a former college football player, Jake brings an athlete's mindset to every workout.

Outside the gym, Jake is a husband of 15-plus years and a father of two. As a born again bible believing Christian, Jake enjoys spending time with his wife, watching his kids' different activities, and listening to worship music.

Ephesians 4:22-24
“You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

Will served 10 years in the United States Army as a Helicopter Mechanic. Fitness has always been a major part of his life. In 2023, he discovered CrossFit thanks to his wife, Kaylee, who encouraged him to give it a try. After watching her compete, he knew this was the sport and community he wanted to be part of.  Will earned his CrossFit Level 1 certification in May 2024.

Outside of the gym, he recently married Kaylee—who also coaches here at Warfare.  He loves spending time with her and their three girls. Will is passionate about serving at their church and continuing to grow in my relationship with the Lord.

Kaylee graduated from Texas A&M in 2016.  She has been passionate about sports her whole life, playing volleyball year-round from 5th grade all the way through her traveling club team at Texas A&M. Over the years, she's coached several club volleyball leagues and helped athletes see their potential and work toward and achieve their goals!

After volleyball, she tried working out on her own but quickly realized how much she missed the sense of team and community—so she found CrossFit. Kaylee earned her CrossFit Level 1 certification in 2024.

She loves CrossFit Warfare for its strong foundation of faith in Jesus and its mission to help people grow healthier in every aspect of life through functional fitness.

Kaylee happily married her husband William in 2025.

I am thrilled to be a part of this amazing team at CrossFit Warfare. My "why" has always been to lead others, whether youth or adults, be the best version of themselves through education and physical fitness. Understanding that we are all coming from different places and have different goals or aspirations, I meet people where they are in their journey.  

As wife, mom, and chosen by God, I understand the ability to be the best version of myself for Him and my family is most important, so taking care of myself mentally and physically is priority. I hope that I can inspire and instill that in them and others as well.  

I started my health and wellness journey as an adult, so it hasn't always come completely natural to me. While I have trained many through outdoor group fitness and youth trying to get their lives back on track, I am blessed to have this opportunity to be a part of this wonderful CrossFit community here at CrossFit Warfare. We all have a starting point, and it's up to you to take that first step towards the change you want to see in yourself. I am here to walk right alongside you.  

CrossFit has challenged and pushed me beyond limits that I didn't realize I could do and I'm not done yet! We are a community that supports and encourages each other everyday!

Matthew 5:14-16

“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven."
