Jason has always been great at explaining how to do specific steps and exercises accurately. He’ll take his time to make sure you understand and give encouragement, which is such a supportive way to help. As an owner of the gym, I’m impressed at the gym he’s built and continues to be an excellent place of growth and fitness. Thank you, Jason for all you do. -Jenna

Coach Jason was very thoughtful with his coaching tonight on a technical lifting piece. The split jerk is a complex movement and he broke it down extremely well. I’ve been doing this for a few years now but I always learn something new each time he coaches. Thanks Dreamtown!

I am 2 days into Crossfit and joined for classes with Alex both days. I appreciate that Alex provided instruction in how to bench press, do barbell snatches, and other strength building techniques that are new to me. Alex also seemed to keep his eye out for me during class to make sure I was safe, understood the workout, and answered my questions. I am looking forward to learning more in the days and weeks to come.

Great vibes and players’ respect fill the gym every time I’m here. Devon is an All-Star who really stands out by encouraging everyone and paying close attention to each person’s form and effort. He made sure I was challenged without feeling overwhelmed, adjusting the workouts to fit my pace while still pushing me forward. The energy in the room at Dreamtown CrossFit is contagious, and you can tell the community genuinely supports each other. It’s the kind of place where you feel motivated to keep coming back and improving.

Not only did Alex give clear, constructive tips to help with my form and technique, but he also offered warm encouragement throughout the session. He patiently helped me work through a movement I had been stuck on, and when I actually got it, he was genuinely excited about my success. His enthusiasm made the accomplishment feel really fun and rewarding. That kind of energy made the whole workout at Dreamtown CrossFit feel more personal and motivating. I look forward to working with Alex again.

Versus providing a one day review of Alex’s coaching skills, I believe it’s more appropriate to evaluate his observed coaching skills over the past few years. In a nutshell, Alex cares about each athlete’s progress, attitude and motivation as soon as they walk into the gym. In his classes, one can expect Alex to provide teaching moments in terms of technique and modifications of movements that enhance athlete performance. No one is overlooked! Finally, each day he’ll set expectations that push you to be the best you can be. If you meet those expectations, expect Alex to set the bar higher. He’s a bad ass coach. I’m enjoying this journey under his mentoring
