Coach Shane

CrossFit Affiliate Owner & Coach

As an Affiliate Owner & CrossFit Trainer with a background in professional sports, I have been coaching fitness for over 9 years. In early 2013 my wife Bo and I found CrossFit, by 2014 we had completed our CF-L1 Trainer credentials and started coaching CrossFit to friends from our garage at home. A few months later we opened Ghetto CrossFit and never looked back.

I believe that “movement-is-life” and I am blessed to wake up every day and spend time in a space where I am able to make genuine, long-lasting relationships with people, while helping them become better versions of themselves, both physically and mentally.

I currently hold a CF-L1 and CF-L2 Trainer credential. I have also completed CrossFit Gymnastics, CrossFit Weightlifting and CrossFit Aerobic Capacity Certifications.

My specialties include competitor coaching, gymnastics, weightlifting, aerobic capacity and sport specific training.

Coach Bo

CrossFit Affiliate Owner & Coach

I have been involved in the fitness industry since I was 16 years old, and opening a CrossFit Affiliate was the culmination of my pursuit to stay within the health & fitness industry for good.

I love that I get to spend every day helping humans become better! Seeing how people who think they are “average” achieve amazing things, both physically and mentally, fuels my passion for making a positive change in the world.

My experiences while working with people within CrossFit have given me the motivation to keep educating people so they can regain control over their health, and create balance in their lives. Seeing the confidence blossom in each person at the Ghetto CrossFit makes every early morning and late night worth it.

Coach Mickey

CrossFit Coach

I started my CrossFit journey in January 2018, where I was introduced to group classes. Surprisingly, within just a few weeks, my interest in coaching sparked, and after six months, I earned my CF-L1 Trainer credential. During that time, I devoted myself to shadowing and assisting at a local affiliate, learning as much as I could.

In September 2019, I became a part of the warm and welcoming Ghetto CrossFit family, taking on the role of a full-time CrossFit Trainer. My commitment to growth led me to complete the CrossFit Gymnastics Course early in 2020, and in 2021, I proudly obtained my CF-L2 Trainer credential.

My passion for CrossFit extends beyond my personal journey; I find tremendous fulfilment in helping others embark on their fitness paths. Guiding Ghetto CrossFit members towards their goals brings me immense joy, and I cherish the countless memorable moments etched into my mind from coaching them.

Coach Callum

CrossFit Coach

In 2015, my CrossFit journey began when a friend convinced me to attend a class, and from that day on, I was hooked! The dynamic workouts and sense of community in CrossFit captured my heart. Before CrossFit, I had a sporting background in hockey and swimming.

In the early months of 2020, while pursuing a degree in Information Design, I obtained my CF-L1 Trainer credential. However, CrossFit’s profound impact on my life steered me towards the health and wellness industry. In 2023, I furthered my passion by acquiring both my CF-L2 Trainer credential and CrossFit Gymnastics certifications.

I currently work as a part-time coach at Ghetto CrossFit while simultaneously pursuing a full-time Bachelors of Health Sciences degree in Chiropractic. What I love most about coaching is the opportunity to enhance people’s quality of life, regardless of their background, fitness level, or health condition. Witnessing their progress and well-being is truly rewarding.

Coach Aileen

CrossFit Coach

I started my CrossFit journey in 2014 and immediately fell in love with the CrossFit methodology and community, the positive lifestyle changes; and the feeling of walking out the door having given 1% more effort for the day!  

I completed my CF-L1 trainer credential in 2016 and started coaching at the same time. My daughter, Harper was born in 2018 and has a keen interest for CrossFit.   

My love for working with children combined with my passion for CrossFit drives me to help them move efficiently, build foundational skills, make a physical difference, and develop gross motor skills to move with balance, coordination, ease, and confidence, whilst having fun! 

My goal is to coach children to love functional fitness, love being active and healthy, achieve their goals and build confidence.

I absolutely love training too and appreciate how CrossFit is suited for any level of fitness and age; there is always room to improve and grow, and an opportunity to transform your life for the better!

Coach Eugene

CrossFit Coach

I currently hold a CF-L2 Trainer credential and am working towards my CF-L3 Trainer credential. I have an extensive cycling background, having participated in club cycling, mountain biking, and BMX – truly embracing it all! However, life had different plans for me…

In 2013, a serious motorcycle accident turned my life upside down, leading to a long and ongoing road to recovery. It was during this challenging time that I discovered CrossFit. Participating in a rehabilitation course at a local box opened up a whole new chapter for me.

As a CrossFit Trainer with 6 years of experience, I consider myself privileged to have helped numerous individuals transform their lives. Additionally, I have had the opportunity to coach several school hockey teams.

My greatest joy comes from witnessing how CrossFit changes people’s lives. I can personally attest that nothing can hold you back from becoming a better human being through this incredible fitness journey.
