Rainier CrossFit is a CrossFit Gym. We do one thing- uncommonly well. We're equipped to present pure, straightforward CrossFit programming, excellent coaching, and personal attention in an environment that many have remarked as "comfortable", "relaxed", and the best comment ever-- "this feels like home".
Welcome to this brief intro of our cast of characters---
Kurtis
Thanks to Tom of SnoRidge CF for the pic.
Kurtis is a level 3 CrossFit Trainer (yes, in the wayback days a Level 3 was awarded) and USA Weightlifting Certified Club Coach. He started CrossFit and was immediately rewarded with results not seen with other workouts. The ever changing and constantly challenging nature of CrossFit had Kurtis visiting CrossFit headquarters in Santa Cruz in November of 2003 and looking for a facility here within months. He has been selected by HQ as one of the handful of trainers who regularly teach and coach at certification seminars and has been selected as one of the newest FlowMasters of the Seminar Staff. Want to learn proper movement from one of the best? Kurtis has judged top athletes at every CrossFit Games. He also holds the CF Barbell, Olympic lifting, Powerlifting, Westside and Movement and Mobility certificates. Together with his wife Laurie, Kurtis opened Rainier CrossFit in July, 2004.
