Natalie Stewart
Coach Natalie found CrossFit while looking for a way to get in shape for her wedding in 2014. She had played sports throughout her school years and had fallen out of a solid routine. CrossFit gave her a structured and effective way to get in shape, while offering the best, unexpected benefit- the community. She says, "It’s one of those things that are hard to explain, but best to experience." After a few years, Natalie wanted to expand her scope beyond being an athlete and earned her CrossFit Level 1. Since 2017, she's coached a wide range of athletes and celebrates each victory, large or small. Natalie looks forward to helping you achieve your goals and pursuing life-long functional fitness!

Andy Glaser
Coach Andy has been “all-in” with CrossFit since 2014 as a result of wanting more than what a traditional gym or fitness chain offered. As an asthmatic 53 year old and never a star athlete, Andy could represent the typical person coming into a CrossFit box for the first time. For Andy, CrossFit represented a very positive change in life style, mental health, and what it means to have fitness. Andy earned his Level 1 CrossFit certification in 2019 and is committed to helping others utilize CrossFit as a positive influence for their lives and future story.

Ryan Wass
Coach Ryan started CrossFit in 2013 when he became bored with repetitive workouts and weightlifting movements that weren’t producing any results. CrossFit brought him the results he was looking for and improved his overall well-being. When faced with a shoulder injury, it was a CrossFit trainer that corrected Ryan’s form on bench press to eventually heal his shoulder completely and helped him avoid having to get surgery. The thing that Ryan loves most about CrossFit is that it is scalable for everyone! At Sonic Boom, Ryan is most excited to see people succeed with their overall health and happiness. Specifically, he wants to help athletes correct their lifting form. His favorite CrossFit movements are: Snatch, Clean & Jerk, and ring muscle-ups. When he is not at the gym, Ryan enjoys fishing, going for long walks with his dog, being outside, playing sports, and checking out new breweries. Certifications: CrossFit Level 1 Trainer, CPR & First-Aid certified |
