Coach Dave brings the fun factor to our classes and is always ready with a dad joke to start off the session right. He has a passion for helping others be the best version of themselves possible.
​
"I was introduced to CrossFit back in 2016 and didn't fully appreciate what functional movement meant until I hit the road with my wife, Ruby, in an RV shortly after. Traveling the country exposed me to many retirees and travelers that all had the same wish, "I wish I was younger and healthier to enjoy traveling more."
​
"CrossFit is multi-faceted and applies more to than just fitness, which is what hooked me. I spent more years working on glory muscles/body building than focusing on the longevity of a simple task such us getting up from a chair. Now my goal is to take what I've learned as a CFL2 and pass it onto those willing to try and improve their current state on the health continuum scale."
​
"My work background is in the health industry, including both EMS and Home Health DME where I work to improve the lives of all of those in need of help. When I'm not working I enjoy hikes, backpacking, rock climbing, reading, riding my Harley and coaching youth soccer (which is why I pursued and obtained my CrossFit Kids Coaching Certificate). My goal is to help as many persons as I can to not think to themselves, "I wish I was younger" and instead look forward to getting stronger and healthier. My hope for anyone joining my classes is that you learn the "why" and not just the "what" we are doing and most of all have a great time participating with our community."
