JESS QUERASMA

Yoga Instructor

After a ten year career working with animals, Jessica found an incredible sense of authenticity in her yoga practice when she moved from Florida to NYC in 2015.  As a long time practitioner of martial arts, she has followed the wisdom from the principles of Budo and understands that the true mastery to any discipline comes from cultivating one’s inner strength. What started as a means of physical healing, her yoga practice quickly revealed an intricate connection between the moral codes of Budo and the eight-limbed path of Yoga. 

Focusing on centered and mindful movement, Jessica emphasizes fluid transitions between asana and exploring ways of releasing the emotional and physical tension in both the mind and body. Jessica is particularly sensitive to shoulder and hip injuries as she has suffered from both hip dysplasia and shoulder muscle tears.

Jessica’s background in Science has taught her that progress happens when there is space for growth, so she encourages you to release any expectation or self-judgment. If we approach Yoga with curiosity and playfulness then the spark of our own potential can thrive. If we do the work with intention in moments of stillness, then deep in the chaos we have clarity. 

Jessica is Yoga Alliance certified RYT-200 hrs through Sonic Yoga in NYC, has a third degree black belt in Shotokan Karate, a white belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and rides a motorcycle.

CHRIS LUNDQUIST

CrossFit Coach

Chris has lived in the Pacific Northwest all his life and currently lives in University Place with his wife, Melody. Chris has always enjoyed competitive sports and grew up playing soccer, basketball, and baseball. When his father built the first indoor tennis club in the area, his focus turned to tennis and Chris went on to become a top-ranked junior, collegiate, and adult player. After he finished competing, Chris used his experience and began coaching for the next 15 years which included 7 years as the head tennis coach for Fife High School.

As an adult, it was still important for Chris to maintain an active lifestyle. He was introduced to CrossFit when he attended the 2015 West Regional event at the Tacoma Dome. He knew right then that CrossFit was something that he wanted to pursue. Chris eventually made his way to University Place CrossFit and knew that he was at the right place. The UPCF community is like no other community and offered everything that Chris was looking for.

Chris loves coaching and he is excited to be a part of University Place CrossFit and helping people grow and reach their full potential. Chris is a Level 1 CrossFit Trainer and has his CrossFit Masters Trainer Certificate.

MEGAN ERNST

​CrossFit Coach

Megan is a born and bred Pacific Northwest girl, growing up in University Place.  When she was 5, she began competitively swimming and continued through high school where she then started playing water polo.  Since graduating high school and for the last 10+ years, she has coached 16U and 18U girls’ club water polo and for the past six years, she has been the head coach of Silas (formerly Wilson) High School’s girls’ water polo team.  Megan is a water lover at heart and still keeps her feet wet by playing polo with her masters team.

Three years ago, she walked into University Place CrossFit and never looked back. She loves that CrossFit is similar to swimming in the sense that it is you against yourself (and the clock) but it embodies the definition of community and team.  And let me tell you, UPCF has an unmatched community! Megan also enjoys seeing how everybody has different strengths in CrossFit and the vast variety of workouts help develop those strengths and train weaknesses into strengths!

This year, she decided to dive further into CrossFit and take a Level 1 course to learn about the methodology and science, which ultimately made her fall even more in love with the sport and she couldn’t wait to join the amazing UPCF team. 

Outside of the gym, she works as a dental hygienist for a local root canal specialist. She also enjoys exploring the PNW and traveling the world, taking naps with her cat, cheering for the Seahawks and brunching with friends. 
​
Megan looks forward to helping you develop your strengths and strengthen your weaknesses here at UPCF!

PAULINE MAY

Director of Motivation & Coach

Pauline was the founding coach of RevUp and was with UPCF since day one. She specialized in early childhood development and was brilliant with children as well as programming to fit the specific needs for ages 3-10.  Pauline received her ​CrossFit OL-Level 1 Certificate in January of 2022 and started coaching adult CrossFit classes as well. 

​If the UPCF community is a fire, Pauline was the spark that set it ablaze. It is Pauline’s example of strength in the face of adversity that led our founding team to set the dream that is UPCF into motion. In 2013, Pauline was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. An avid outdoors women, runner and mother of three, Pauline refused to allow her diagnosis to control her life. For over a year, she endured intensive treatments including chemotherapy, radiation and a bilateral mastectomy. Throughout her treatment, Pauline remained active; often against the orders of her doctors. Once in remission, Pauline dedicated herself to not only regaining but improving upon her previous level of fitness. CrossFit offered a proven and potent template from which to build on that goal. With quality CrossFit programming and an unrivaled work ethic, this cancer survivor found herself closing in on 40 years of age, in the best shape of her life. With poise and pure positivity, Pauline became a shining example of hope for everyone lucky enough to be a part of her journey.

In 2017, after several years in remission, Pauline once again sat on the receiving end of devastating news. Her breast cancer had returned; this time aggressively attacking her bones. Though a recurrence of this nature brings with it a difficult fight, Pauline remained true to her faithful and hopeful message. It was precisely this news that also set in motion the sequence of decisions and events that would ultimately lead to the founding of UPCF. For over a decade, Pauline’s family had shared a vision of forming a business based on improving lives. Facing the reality of another bout with cancer, the family decided to take immediate action in the form of what we now refer to as our “Intentional Life.” With Pauline’s fighting spirit as a guide, UPCF was born.

Pauline’s fight ended on September 3, 2022 but was not lost. She defied odds over and over and inspired thousands along the way to keep living with intention, hope and love. We will always view her battle as victorious because of the lasting impact she has left on this earth.
