Steele Cole

CrossFit Instructor

Steele grew up in Fruitvale, and his main athletic outlet was playing lacrosse for the West Kootenay team out of Castlegar. Steele has always been passionate about pushing the pace and trying challenging new activities.

After high school, stepped away from sports and fitness and focused mainly on building a good base for his future. Eventually the lack of physical activity left him with a desire to better his health and fitness. Standard weight training was getting him moving, but he wanted to find something more dynamic.

After finding CrossFit through the "Fittest on Earth" documentaries, Steele was convinced CrossFit was the training methodology he had been looking for. Once he got in touch with Rhonda and finished his elements, he was left humbled and hungry for more. Fast forward a few years and a dramatic improvement in his strength and conditioning, Steele was left wondering how he could begin to give back to the community that had given him so much. When asked about making the jump into coaching, he figured that was the perfect way to be able to give back and help others on their health and fitness journeys.
