Manic Training has been at the heart of the Ford family since it opened in 2011. Knowing that he had found his passion and purpose life, John bought it in 2012 and grew it into the thriving community that it is today.

John comes from a family of athletes and a lifelong passion for health and wellness. He loves to not only offer exceptional workouts but other health, lifestyle and nutrition guidance that he uses to help himself.

His wife Nicole helps behind the scene at Manic, and is a therapist, yoga teacher and workout enthusiast; she also has nutrition certifications and leads detox programs for Manic members.

After working out at Manic for almost 10 years, their son Eli came on board full time in 2024, and he brings fresh perspective and vision to Manic. Their daughter Arden is also a fitness enthusist and supports Manic's social media presence.

The Ford family loves to play and adventure, and they know how important fitness is to living a full life. It's why they embrace the motto "Train In, Adventure Out."

The Fords feel honored to help other people live their best lives.
