About Tak

Tak came to Raincity to train for the CrossFit Open in February. He transitioned over slowly from his previous gym, but he liked the unique sense of community Raincity offers and found more and more that he couldn't stay away.

Tak started CrossFit while trying out for college soccer and wanting to bring his fitness up when nothing else seemed to be the right fit. Eventually he fell in love with the sport and left soccer to focus on training for competitive CrossFit.

He felt there was a hole in the coaching styles at other gyms when he was learning the fundamentals himself, and really wanted to bring something more to classes by making them more engaging and more fun.

The most rewarding part of coaching, he says, is seeing the enjoyment of the athletes in his classes, watching them achieve their goals while having a great time.

Tak describes his classes as having a fun vibe. He likes to tell cheesy jokes to get people laughing daily and doesn't think it needs to be super serious all the time, just a generally good vibe.
