MEET THE COACHES

Mandi Janowitz

Graduated from Idaho State University in Biology and Sport & Recreational Science. Also competed on the track and field as a Heptathlete. 

After graduation Mandi satisfied her competitive itch by doing triathlons and Ironmans. 

She found CrossFit and functional fitness shortly after that and switched gears to start competing in the sport. She was able to reach the highest level with my team and win the CrossFit Games in 2017. 

Her coaching journey started 12 years ago. She has her CF Level 1&2 and currently certified in Olympic Lifting. Mandi loves developing and implementing training programs that foster lifelong fitness and help people reach their full potential. 

"I’m grateful to be a part of such a wonderful community here at Rockwell Training Facility and take great pride in creating a fitness program that will allow for movement freedom and strength in our future years!" - Mandi Janowitz

Julia Wong

After eight years in Oregon, Julia returned home in 2022 and quickly found Rockwell. She knew it was the gym for her after the first workout consisted of way too many burpees and sprints on the field. Julia fell in love with CrossFit-style training in 2018 after spending most of her childhood upside down as a gymnast and competing in Olympic weightlifting at the University of Oregon. She loves watching the Rockwell community achieve their goals and hit new maxes and strives to make class time the best part of their days. Julia's favorite movements are handstand push-ups, snatch, and bar muscle-ups, but don't ask her to get on an assault bike! Outside of the gym, Julia works for a rare disease nonprofit and supports their efforts by planning education and support events.
