Dirranie (or D as she is know in the Box) has always been active and involved in sports. Growing up in a small country town it was how time was passed!!
She has played sport at all levels from local, to regional, to state and international. This has given her experience with coaches of different levels and all the different levels of fitness requirements and expectations.
Coaching has always been a passion for D, she started coaching cricket just after leaving high school and has since coached several sports. A biologist by trade her passion lies in the fitness/sporting realm and this saw her complete her Cert III and IV in Fitness in Oct 2010 and start working as a Personal Trainer outside of her full time job.
In 2011 D was introduced to CrossFit and since then has not looked back, having always used a similar method in her own training and that of her clients the move back to functional movement and high intensity made sense to her. She loves that there is still so much to learn just as much as she love to see the members at CrossFit Geraldton reach their full potential and become a better version of themselves.

Sarah started CrossFit while looking for a fitness edge for her basketball. She surprised herself when she discovered she likes to lift weights and is stronger than she thought.

1) 3 Words to Describe yourself: Enthusiastic, Patient, Bubbly
2) Why CrossFit? Its always challenging – mentally and physically
3) Why Coaching? Coaching is incredibly rewarding – It is great to watch people begin to move again and realise how strong they are while conquering their physical and mental battles. And seeing the CrossFit kids begin ( and enjoy!) their lifelong fitness journey always makes me smile 🙂
4) Favourite Workout? Anything short and fast with a barbell
5) Least Favourite Workout? Thrusters and running
6) Coaches Tip: Be kind to yourself – Give the best you can for that day and you never know you might surprise your self! And let yourself rest and recover (moblise!)
