Lauryn Self

From a young age, I have always been part of a team and engaged in physical activity. I danced and twirled competitively for 14 years and participated in track and field throughout middle and high school. This active lifestyle instilled in me a strong appreciation for health, community, high standards, and a bit of healthy competition.

In 2016, my husband introduced me to CrossFit, which perfectly aligned with those values. Alongside my passion for sports, I have always been dedicated to helping others, and I currently work full-time as a Registered Respiratory Therapist. In 2021, I took this passion a step further by becoming a CrossFit trainer, allowing me to support and inspire others on their fitness journeys.

A significant turning point in my life came in 2021 when I chose to pursue coaching. After five years of focusing on my own CrossFit journey, Coach Cassie and Kevin encouraged me to share my skills with our community. This sparked a period of reflection on how CrossFit had transformed my life, both physically and mentally.

Becoming a CrossFit trainer reignited my passion and purpose, deepening my commitment to helping others thrive while also inspiring me to be a better version of myself.

Coaching allows me to combine my love for physical activity with my desire to support others. I find immense joy in watching clients grow stronger, both physically and mentally. I thrive on helping them push past their limits, embrace the process, and celebrate their progress. Witnessing someone achieve a personal best or conquer a new skill is one of the most rewarding aspects of coaching for me.

Creating an environment where everyone feels welcome and empowered is central to my coaching philosophy. I believe that fitness should be accessible to all, and I strive to foster a sense of community that motivates each individual to succeed.
