Returning to the Coast in 2016 after spending 2 and a half years coaching at CrossFit Canmore in Canada Tommy has brought to the Minerva community and Central Coast CrossFit a wealth of CrossFit and PT experience, including extensive time working with masters athletes in his previous roles. He has over 7 years of CrossFit coaching experience.

Jodi coaches both our CrossFit and Kids classes. Having started CrossFit over 7 years ago, she not only competes regularly, but has developed her skills into coaching. Our kids classes have been benefiting greatly from both the knowledge she shares and her easy rapport with our newest generation of crossfitters.

It has been over 12 years since Jarryd started as a personal trainer. His primary focus has been on helping his clients with the strength and conditioning aspects of programming, which in turn provides each individual with health benefits organically, helping them to be the best version of themselves both physically and mentally.

In 2013, whilst managing a health and fitness facility in Sydney, Jarryd had the opportunity to run an Olympic lifting program, which incorporated all the key aspects of strength and conditioning and allowed him to excel in his craft.

A qualified Level 1 CrossFit instructor, he also has experience in competitive soccer, mixed martial arts and has competed more recently in the sport of CrossFit.

Why you started CrossFit: –I had time off training with no motivation to train how I previously had been. I began CrossFit to improve again and improve my mental health 

Why you started coaching :- I have a big love for the sport and background in personal/group training. To help teach others what I have learnt, and learnt to love.

Why you do Crossfit? – the people you’re around make it fun and they also push you to train harder. It’s the closest thing to training as part of a team.

Why you started coaching?  – because I had a background in personal training and really like Crossfit Minerva community so I jumped at the chance to become a coach.

What you enjoy about coaching –  I like seeing people achieve their goals and things they didn’t think they could or would ever be able to do. Being apart of that process is awesome. Also seeing people gain unexpected things like confidence and friendships is just a bonus.

Why you started CrossFit – I started CrossFit as I was looking for something to drive my training and was so inspired by the strong women that I wanted to try my hand at functional competitive fitness.

Why you do CrossFit- Everyday i get to push my limits and evolve in the sport I love. For me its a great stress release and endorphin boost. Training as part of a community is a great way to get in your fitness.

Why you love coaching- I’m so passionate about the sport and I love sharing this passion with others who want to learn new skills and improve their fitness. Helping someone achieve a milestone is a really rewarding experience.

Today reached a massive goal for me and after losing 17.5kg i am now 99.6kg and under 100kg for the first time in over 20 years. Thanks so much to Mark Yule and Cheryl Yule for their great coaching firstly at their house and now at Crossfit Minerva, it’s been a great ride and long may it continue

At the end of July 2015 I was told my blood pressure was 154/87. My waist was 101cm and I weighed 73kg. It was clear I had to do something otherwise I was looking forward to a future of at least heart disease and possibly even diabetes. Some friends of mine suggested that I check out Crossfit Minerva at Tuggerah. From the start, Mark and Cheryl were incredibly welcoming. Mark asked many questions to ensure he could coach me with my safety and capabilities in mind.

The people at Crossfit Minerva are all great guys. Very encouraging and supportive. The coaching staff encourage that atmosphere and everybody cheers each other on.

I am now, after 15 months, 66kg with a waist of 83cm and my Blood Pressure is down to 119/69. I am as fit as a 52 year old can be and I’ve been introduced to and have learnt many things like Olympic Lifting and Gymnastic exercises.

I would recommend Crossfit Minerva to anyone who wants to get fit and lose weight as one of the many positive results they can achieve regardless of age or gender.

Fantastic experience: Minerva is an epic space to train with an incredible community. We recently moved up to the Coast from Sydney and have felt right at home. Tommy and the coaches are highly skilled and accommodating, always putting their members first. The atmosphere during the opens this year, and the way it was run as ‘Friday night lights’ was just so much fun. I would highly recommend CrossFit Minerva to anyone, whether you’re new to CrossFit or the new Tia Toomey. You won’t be disappointed!

CrossFit Minerva nails their service in so many ways and customises their programs in such a way that it suits everyone’s needs and they have a fantastic friendly vibe. All ages and abilities are welcomed which makes this fantastic fitness program available to everyone. I can’t thank them enough for this.

Fantastic experience: Going into my 7th year at CrossFit Minerva . We’ve seen many changes and lots of improvements over the past few years BUT what stands out the most is the ongoing support from the coaches . You are encouraged always to have a go , never made feel that you can not achieve . Classes are a great size , plenty of space for one on one coaching and questions if needed. The community is strong and supportive. Throughout lock downs the coaches and community stayed together, classes continues via zoom or you could just join in to say hi so that you could still feel that you were part of the crew. The box has grown , more coaches lots of experiences come with them all and they are all happy to share their knowledge . I fee grateful to be part of such a great place for as long as I have been and have no thoughts of leaving anytime soon . CrossFit Minerva is a great place to train and be part of as a community . Cheers Millsy (Fiona not Glen )

Fantastic experience: The team at Minerva are absolute legends. It's rare to have such quality trainers right throughout the gym! You can tell that they are invested into their people and love their members. I love going to Minerva and highly recommend!

Nathan Hardman 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Swore some years ago that I’d never join a Crossfit gym but here I am into I think my 6th month as a member. At 41 didnt think I’d be able to learn many new tricks, particularly after 27 year playing rugby league, but I’m progressing through more gymnastics movements regularly, my numbers in Olympic lifting which I love are increasing and I’m still holding a solid cardio base which has enabled me to compete in a few CrossFit competitions now and be competitive. The culture here is amazing, something I sorely missed when I retired from competitive rugby league. It’s such an awesome team environment, I can’t stay away at the moment! Cheers to Tommy and all the coaches here!

Jenna Frances 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been part of group fitness personal training, preparing for a specific sport and cannot fault Crossfit Minerva. Tommy ensured we were trained by himself and Tammy who are both experienced in the sport we are training for. Tommy and Tammy kept every session upbeat and fun while also challenging us through strength and conditioning, to help our bodies endure through the high impact sport. I absolutely recommend Crossfit Minerva to anyone and everyone, from fitness fanatic to the mum's trying to make a comeback.

David Howarde 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am only new to the CrossFit scene and when I came from another CrossFit gym to Minerva the mindset and culture that has been built there is second to none!! I don’t have enough praise for Tommy and the rest of the coaching team with their words of encouragement and support. It was that good I even got my wife to come and join in all the fun here at CrossFit Minerva.

Tara Howarde 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Minerva has been such a wonderful experience from the moment I walked in. The coaches are outstanding. Atmosphere is fun and encouraging. Love everything about it!

Stefanie Harker 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: It took 6months to get me in the doors of CrossFit Minerva, I had my own opinions of CrossFit and put Minerva in the same basket. Today is my 12month anniversary with them and I will never look back. I took a little mental health hiatus and Tommy contacted my every week, not to make me come back but just to check I was ok, that is saying something. I’m back now and have brought my husband with me and it’s the best feeling ever. They couldn’t be more inclusive if they tried. It doesn’t matter what size, shape or ability you are you are made to feel amazing and everyone is super supportive. I’m so happy to be in the Minerva Family xxx

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym for all levels of Cross Fitters. I was very skeptical about the cross-fit movement before I joined in September 2018. A few months on and I am absolutely hooked. The work outs are different every day and always challenging and fun. The coaches are friendly and facilitate a good community vibe around the gym! Facilities are always clean and tidy

Paul Rowe 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: The thought of going to a gym is about as appealing as watching paint dry for me. How could shifting weights be fun? Through my football it was suggested that I try Crossfit, as it would improve me and my game. Three years later I am still doing Crossfit and having fun doing it. Yes my fitness levels and strength has improve and continues to do so. Likewise my football game has also improved.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Minerva is an awesome box! Tom and Mark are great trainers, very knowledgeable and supportive on your journey towards a better version of yourself! Everyday at this box is a challenge but always worth it! ️‍

Mark Pitt 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been to other CrossFit gyms before. The personal service and coaching you get from Tommy, Mark and the team is second to none. For work reasons i no longer train there but do Tommy’s on line coaching. He shares the same commitment on line as he does face to face. Would recommend Minerva to anyone who wants to try CrossFit but has been hesitant to

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member at CrossFit Minerva for almost 2 years. In this time, I’ve met some of my best friends, become so much stronger (both physically and mentally) and am constantly challenged by the excellent programming and coaching. The CrossFit Minerva community is extremely supportive and have become another family to me. Best gym on the central coast!

Daniel Hewitt 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been a member now for roughly two years, and can say with confidence that Croasfit Minerva is one of the best gyms (Crossfit or otherwise) that I’ve been a member of. Mark and Tom, along with their team of part-time coaches, provide an encouraging and informative environment for people of all skill levels, that not only motivates but empowers members to take control of their own health and fitness goals. On top of this the friendly and inclusive atmosphere makes training there a delight. I would unreservedly recommend Minerva as a place to train for experienced Crossfitters and beginners alike.

John Parrish 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Tommy and Mark have created the best CrossFit gym on the Central Coast and one of the best in Australia. Tommy's level of knowledge is unparalleled. You will not find a better coach anywhere. He has international experience, has helped professional athletes exceed their own expectations and continuously educates himself on the latest methods. Mark has set in place systems to ensure Minerva clients get the absolute most out of the gym. If you want results, Tommy and Mark will get you there.

Cheers Minerva, keep it up!

andy fisher 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I can really recommend this gym as it has made me fitter and stronger than I have ever been , and reached targets that I would not be able to achieve in any other type of gym environment. The coaching at this box is fantastic . Tommy and his team are great patient coaches for beginner to competitive athletes. The camaraderie in our community is great , completely non judgemental and we really enjoy cheering each other on to reach our personal goals . Our coaches strive to improve us without all the shouting and gesturing that you may have at other gyms , and small incremental achievements are not to be sneered at by anybody at this box , as we all have our personal reasons for being there . We also have in house competitons at regular intervals and have a Christmas get together to celebrate our achievements. I look forward to meeting you there to share a wod !
