Our primary goal as a coaching staff is to provide consistently excellent coaching in a fun, all-inclusive, safe and challenging environment.
​
All coaches have attended and passed the CF Level 1 course. We also have 5 USAW Level 1 Coaches on staff. We have a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist, a Performance Enhancement Specialist and an Olympic weightlifting coach with over two decades of experience. Each of our part-time CrossFit coaches has successfully completed the Lake Washington CrossFit coaches’ apprenticeship program.
