My CrossFit journey began in the summer of 2007 at CrossFit San Jose. After completing my first WOD with my husband, Markum, and needing his assistance to wash my hair…I was hooked! Markum and I found CrossFit Cherry Point during our time stationed in North Carolina. CFCP forever changed my life. During my time at Cherry Point, I competed in both individual and team competitions and was given the fortunate opportunity to receive my CrossFit Level 1 certification in the summer of 2010. I had the pleasure of training Marines, spouses of Marines, Civilians and Civilian Contractors aboard Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point. It was at CFCP that I discovered I have a true passion for helping others change their lives.
The amount of support, encouragement, confidence, knowledge and lifelong friendships that I have gained since starting CrossFit, is something I want to share and provide an opportunity for others to experience. It’s simply amazing!
I started Crossfit in 2012 in the back room of my kids’ gymnastics facility. It was something I was going to do a couple days a week to add some strength conditioning to my running routine. Within a few weeks I was hopelessly addicted. Crossfit has made me realize that I am capable of so much more than I ever imagined, both inside and outside of the box.
In 2015, I received my Level 1 Trainer and Crossfit Kids certificates. When I decided to take this step, I had absolutely no idea why I was going or what I planned to do with them. Fortunately, nobody asked me those questions, because it has turned out to be one of the best things I have done. Turns out that watching other people continuously build confidence, gain new skills and hit new PRs is even better than doing it yourself! And, the Kids….don’t even get me started on the Kids!
I found CrossFit in 2015 during a turbulent chapter of my life. I initially walked into the box just looking for a place to shut out the world for an hour, but what I found was a grounding habit that changed everything. Over the last decade, CrossFit has evolved from a mental escape into a foundational part of my life. After 10 years as an athlete, I decided to step onto the floor as a coach to share the lessons I’ve learned along the way. My goal is to help you move better, get stronger, and find that same sense of focus and fun that kept me coming back.
Hi, I’m Cadi — a CrossFit Level 1 Coach with a lifelong passion for movement. I grew up immersed in gymnastics, where I developed a deep appreciation for body control, discipline, and attention to detail. From a young age, I loved not only training but also coaching gymnastics, helping athletes refine technique and build confidence through precise, intentional movement.
As I transitioned into adulthood, a regular gym routine just wasn’t enough. I was drawn to the intensity, community, and technical challenge of CrossFit. In 2022, I began my CrossFit journey at CrossFit Cheyenne, and in 2023 I earned my CrossFit Level 1 certification to turn my passion into purpose.
What I love most about coaching CrossFit is the technical side of it. Every lift, every skill, every workout is an opportunity to improve movement quality and help athletes unlock new abilities. My gymnastics background allows me to bring strong movement awareness and detail-oriented coaching to every session.
There’s nothing more rewarding than watching individuals achieve something they once thought they couldn’t — whether it’s their first pull-up, a new PR, or simply feeling stronger and more confident in their own body.
I started CrossFit in the beginning of 2020 in Anaheim, California after being introduced to it by some colleagues when I was an EMT. I wanted more of a challenge than what I was getting at a commercial gym. Some would call it “love at first WOD” because I was hooked on day 1.
When my husband and I moved to Cheyenne in 2021 I found Crossfit Cheyenne and re fell in love with CrossFit again. The community was so welcoming and I learned how to adapt workouts for injuries and not let my ego get in the way. In 2023 we moved to Atlanta where I got a gym manager position at CrossFit Atlanta. They paid for my Level 1 and I was told to fill in for coaches who weren’t available.
While never really looking to start training, I slowly began to enjoy it. When we moved to Casper in 2024, I began to coach regularly every week and that is when it clicked and I knew I wanted more of this! I enjoyed helping people learn new movements, pushing people to their limit in workouts to beat goals, and most of all coming up with alternatives to scale a workout. Coming back to Cheyenne in March 2025, I asked Christi to put me on the schedule more and more to continue gaining my confidence. I got my Level 2 in June of 2025 to grow my coaching confidence and get better on cues and technique. While I love coaching everyone, beginners are my favorite! Watching a movement or skill “click” for someone is the best feeling as a coach and as an athlete.
