Coach Kelly Starrett founded San Francisco CrossFit with his wife and fellow athlete Juliet. Since opening its doors in 2005 as one of the
first fifty CrossFit Affiliates, this athletic training center has become the prime coaching resource for reigning Olympians, national and
world champions, tri-athletes, runners, and recreational athletes alike.
Kelly's focused coaching and warm personality brings his professional training as a strength coach and a doctor of physical therapy to life
for brilliant coaching in a positive environment. Kelly is an inspiration to nearly everyone he meets, causing even superior athletes
to re-examine their physical capacities and reach higher levels, and motivating beginners to believe in their natural ability to excel.
Kelly received his Doctor of Physical Therapy in 2007 from Samuel Merritt College in Oakland, California. After working at the world
renowned Stone Clinic, he began his own practice where he specializes in performance based Orthopedic Sports Medicine. Kelly's practice is a
direct effort to remedy the gap between traditional physical therapy practice and return to elite level sport and performance. World-Class
extreme skiers and X-Games medalists, dancers with Smuin, San Francisco,and Sacramento Ballet Companies, military personnel, and competitive
age-division athletes from all sports have seen effective rehabilitative results from Kelly's progressive blend of manual therapy and strength
training.
Kelly's background as an athlete and coach includes paddling whitewater slalom canoe on the US Canoe and Kayak Teams, and leading the Men's
Whitewater Rafting Team to two national titles and competition in two World Championships. In his free time Kelly enjoys spending time with
his two daughters, Georgia and Caroline, surfing, paddling, Olympic lifting, and dancing.
