"I want to share the greatness of CrossFit that deeply moved me. From the third grade of elementary school until my university graduation, I dedicated myself to ice hockey. Due to my small stature and slow speed, I began learning about weight training and supplements. As a result, my physical condition improved significantly, and my athletic performance increased, which made me realize the beauty of sports science. With a desire to contribute to society through sports science, I joined a comprehensive fitness club after graduating from university. For 12 years, I worked there, engaging in a wide range of exercise instruction for individuals ranging from 2 to 90 years old. While maintaining my own training routine, I injured my shoulder during a bench press and began researching shoulder injury prevention. It was during this time that I encountered functional movements and the methodology of CrossFit, such as snatches, handstand push-ups, and muscle-ups. In 2014, I started CrossFit and became fascinated with its innovative and comprehensive fitness program like never before. Subsequently, in 2016, I obtained my CrossFit coach license and gained four years of coaching and management experience at a CrossFit box from 2019. In April 2023, I decided to utilize my past experiences and passion as a coach at CrossFit Aoyama, aiming to share the greatness of CrossFit with everyone."

"CrossFit: Building a Community Regardless of Goals, Age, or Abilities. Let's Enjoy this Journey Together!" I started cheerleading in high school and continued until I graduated from college, cherishing the importance of camaraderie and the joy of moving my body. Later, while working as an instructor in a dark fitness studio, I discovered CrossFit. I believe that CrossFit is wonderful because it brings the joy of accomplishing things you couldn't do before and creates a community where people of different goals, ages, and abilities can come together. Let's enjoy training together at CrossFit Aoyama! My hobbies include camping, visiting cafes, and playing with cats!
