About Sharon

I’ve been involved in sport my whole life, having grown up as a basketball player, I represented at state level throughout school. It was at university in Brisbane that I found CrossFit and fell in love with the style of training and the community that came with it. I’ve always been attracted to the competitive side of CrossFit and I even qualified for Sanctionals way back in 2011. At the time, Sanctionals was the “representative” level of competition for CrossFit (which later evolved into Regionals and then later again to Sanctionals). Along the way, I’ve become a Coach, a business owner and a mother of two. My training goals have shifted away from being competitive, and more towards keeping up my fitness and strength … and basically getting in my training sessions when I can.

Turning Point

Life can be challenging.
Being a female, and trying to stay in shape, while dealing with life, has it's challenges.
I always say that my husband (and males in general) have it much easier, when it comes to losing weight, gaining muscle and keeping off the excess! But he will tell you otherwise!
In reality it comes down to our priorities, being a mum, a business owner, a coach, it all just adds another element to the complexity!
THIS is where I have found my passion. To help other women and mothers be happy with their training goals, their development and journey. To lead by example and show that regardless of what life throws at you, we can do it - and have fun while doing it!

Motivation & Passion

I want to help people.
I want to give everyone a space that they want to come to, and a community where they feel they belong!
When I first started CrossFit, I was new to Brisbane, I didn't know anyone, and the gym I joined gave me a community and outlet that helped me in more ways than I could imagine at the time. That is exactly what I want to provide with The Dungeon to each and every member of ours.

What i love about coaching is that I can see that we are making a difference in people's lives, daily, weekly, monthly and over the years!
