Originally from Boston Massachusetts (USA), Barkley competed in many sports from a young age (soccer, swimming, football). He was introduced to CrossFit at University, but it really grabbed his attention in 2016 after he graduated. He trained at the famous CrossFit Back Bay in Boston while working as an underwriter for a fortune 100 company . Once he took CrossFit more seriously he lost nearly 50 pounds (23kg) in weight, and never looked back. He loves the variety, the community and the challenge that this type of training brings. He then qualified as a CrossFit Level 1 coach, and teacher, and has been voted "most likely to talk about CrossFit" wherever he goes!

MAGDA
CrossFit Coach

Magda was first introduced to CrossFit back in Poland in 2012, her home country. She competed in many sports from a young age like swimming, running, fencing and professional horse riding, in which she completed her national trainer course. While studying physiotherapy at University she discovered CrossFit and moved to another city to dedicate herself to coaching and working in one of the first CrossFit gyms in Poland. Magda has spent over 8 years developing her skills and knowledge in physiotherapy and rehabilitation, medical training, kettlebells, mobility and stretching, powerlifting, woman strength training, post- and pre-partum training and olympic weightlifting. Her classes are full of motivation and passion. The most important part in coaching for her is to give people energy and knowledge about how important is taking care of yourself.
With a long background in competitive rowing and cycling, but with very few medals to show for all his sweat and mileage, Will was reluctantly dragged to CrossFit one-day by his wife. Despite his love for outdoors sports, he was immediately impressed by the variation, the emphasis on coaching movements, and the friendships found in puddles of sweat on the floor in a CrossFit gym. Having coached softball, rowing and cycling in the UK, including leading the ODI Unicorns to 2014 'best newcomer' and three consecutive playoff appearances, he now brings his enthusiasm for team sports to CrossFit Thao Dien. Will's passion is making sport and exercise fun, sociable and enjoyable and ensuring you'll want to come back for more training!

Sophie’s CrossFit journey began in January 2014 when she needed to get fit quick for her new job. After not really taking part in any intense exercise since her high school netballing days, a friend recommended she give CrossFit a try... One trial session unexpectedly opened the door to life changing experience for her and 5 years later she has a much healthier body and mind thanks to CrossFit. After years of training and taking part in competitions she made the decision to undertake her level 1 coaching qualification so she can share her passion and love for CrossFit and help as many people as possible achieve that strong body and strong mind too.
