meet the place, the people and the magic that makes reunited crossfit what it is.
How it came to be
Our core group of members started together 7+ years ago at another CrossFit gym. There we became more than just gym members to each other, we became family (some quite literally!). When the gym disbanded, we all tried different avenues but nothing gave us the same thrill and sense of belonging that CrossFit did.
So now we are Reunited! growing in friends, family, and fun.
Meet the Team

Tim Worley
Owner/CrossFit Level 1 Trainer
Tim has been passionate about CrossFit since he started with a small group back in 2009 when they were only able to work out outside the Racquet Club. He saw how much more CrossFit did than just get him back into shape.
Tim was even lucky enough to meet his wife Mandy at CrossFit. They have an awesome son Mason who will eventually become a little CrossFitter; you'll probably see him running around the box. He also has two older daughters Kylie (plays the flute and watches YouTube) and Gracie (who loves cats and is in the BETA club).
When not at the box, Tim works as a production manager at Lentz Cabinets. You can see his handy work all over the gym (anything made of wood he probably made).

Tiffany Ervin-Litsey
Crossfit Level 2 Trainer
After having her first child, Tiffany needed a fitness program that would not only help her build strength but offered her a chance to get to know people. As a stay at home Mom, she needed to have an outlet to work on her personal fitness goals. She started Crossfit with a group of ladies she met at another gym in 2011. She quickly fell in love with how good she felt upon finishing a workout. She met new people and realized not only did Crossfit offer fitness but a sense of community. Another pregnancy and delivery of another girl, it took Tiffany a little time to be able to work out with both kids in tow. She found another Crossfit gym that offered childcare and then was able to make it part of her daily routine. Life opened another chapter, when her family decided to move from North Asheville to Brevard. Once her family was settled, Tiffany found ReUnited Crossfit. She began working out and creating new relationships. She earned her Level 1 in October of 2019 and is loving coaching. Her favorite parts of coaching are getting to know the athletes, keeping them motivated and making sure they are moving within their ability.

Keagan Monteith
Crossfit Level 2 Trainer
Keagan's crossfit journey started in 2009 while watching people flip tires up and down the sidewalk in front of the business he worked at. After curiosity got the best of him, he decided to walk next door and check it out. He needed something a bit more than the typical gym workout and quickly found that in Crossfit, along with the support of the community that surrounded it. Through the years, he would be in and out of the Crossfit gym due to different circumstances, however Crossfit always has remained a staple in his life. Throughout the years, he has enjoyed competing in many different Crossfit competitions along with other close friends. After a debilitating injury in 2015, it was through Crossfit, a great coach and mentor, and the grace of God that he is continuing his training journey with minimal pain most days. In 2020, Keagan acquired his Level I Trainer and started coaching.
Keagan's greatest blessings in life are his faith, his family, and those who are close to him. In the gym, he loves being able to workout with his family close by. He got both his wife Sarah, and mom Patti started in Crossfit, and loves to be there alongside their journeys. He is a proud father to Joseph, and stepdad to Julianna and loves it when they are all in the gym together. Keagan is currently a Logistics officer with the Asheville Fire Department. Keagan hopes to be a positive example, along with a source of encouragement to all those he coaches in the gym. He enjoys assisting people with injuries and hopes to one day start a CrossFit kids program.

Josh Pedersen
Crossfit Level 2 Trainer
Josh began with CrossFit back in 2013 after some convincing from his close friend, Jared. After the initial shock had worn off and Josh had attended a few classes at the local box, he knew this was something he could get into. Josh was amazed at the level of community and support members gave each other. Throughout his school years, Josh never considered himself very athletic, which made him struggle with his self-image and self-confidence. As Josh continued with CrossFit, he saw that he gained strength and just overall felt better and more energetic. CrossFit showed Josh that he was capable of more than he ever thought possible. Josh attributes so much of his personal growth to the CrossFit communities he's been a part of. Fast-forward 6 years and Josh met a girl at ReUnited named Hannah. Little did either of them know a year later he would be down on one knee with a ring!
When Josh isn't working out or coaching at the gym, he can be found working in IT at a local nonprofit. He also loves spending time out in nature, hiking and mountain biking local trails.
