I’ve tried a range of different training styles over the years, but CrossFit was the first one that truly clicked for me. Like many people, I was nervous about starting and put it off for longer than I should have. Once I took that first step, though, I quickly discovered a style of training that challenged me, supported me, and kept me coming back.
After qualifying as a Personal Trainer, I completed the CrossFit Affinity Coach Internship, where I discovered a genuine passion for coaching and helping others succeed. I then studied for and completed the CrossFit Level 1 Trainer certification.
What I enjoy most about coaching is helping people build confidence in themselves and their abilities. Whether someone is walking into a gym for the first time or working towards a goal they’ve been chasing for months, I love being part of that journey. Seeing members become stronger, more capable, and more confident over time is what motivates me every day.
With more than 12 years’ experience in health and wellbeing, including working as an Intermediate Life Support Medic in South Africa and supporting people with disabilities and complex health needs in New Zealand, I’m particularly passionate about helping older adults maintain their strength, mobility and independence. That’s why I’m excited to coach CrossFit Legends — helping people build the confidence and physical capability to keep doing the things they love and stay independent for as long as possible.
