Bruce Tackett

About Bruce:

Athletics have always been part of Bruce Tackett’s story—from the soccer fields and swimming lanes of his youth to the discipline of the U.S. Marine Corps and the rigors of marathon training. He discovered CrossFit in 2015 and was immediately hooked by its challenge, structure, and community. That same year, he earned both his Level 1 and CrossFit Kids certifications, and in 2025, he took things further by completing his Level 2.

Now a seasoned coach at Everlasting, Bruce brings intensity, patience, and perspective to every class. Whether he’s coaching a packed morning crew, guiding a new member through their first lift, or supporting young athletes in the Kids program, Bruce shows up with purpose—and helps others do the same.

Fun Fact:

He’s a proud dad of two high-achieving teens, Anna (17) and James (14), who inspire him daily with their work ethic on and off the field.
