I was introduced to CrossFit and CrossFit Avon in 2010 and received a baptism of fire with Fight Gone Bad as my first WOD! I’d spent the previous 15 years not doing anything much in terms of fitness and health, you know how it goes, working, having children, bringing them up. Taking time out for yourself isn’t important when you have so much else going on.

So there I was attending classes, going from strength to strength and as I became more involved with CrossFit, I realised that I had the possibility of helping others achieve their fitness goals too.

I attended the CrossFit Level 1 course in January 2013 and have been coaching ever since. I particularly enjoy taking those new to CrossFit through our Beginners Classes.
