Justin Wootton
Founder and Manager of Remuera Crossfit, and Genesis Fitness GM.
"Since as early as I can remember I always was taught the rewards for putting in the effort when you exercise. My granddad told me 'Fitness is King' you want to enjoy life stay fit and never get lazy"
Have been CrossFitting since 2012 and fell in love with it quickly. Mixing exercise and competition was a natural attraction - which also drove the desire to compete and run competitions
From the love of competing came the brain child of Metcon Madness, and proudly acknowledge the effort of our coaching staff and members in making the event such a success.
Our community is everything - A sentiment shared by many other CrossFit boxes around the world
Steph Jones
Steph kind of fell into CrossFit through her past admin requirements working with Genesis Fitness.

Being a natural competitor, she became at home with the physical demands of the sport and regularly competes at various comps.
Favorite thing about CrossFit: Gaining new skills, hitting PBs & getting her first bar muscle up.
Wiz Kochasira
Wiz started CrossFit in late 2018, however maintained a large focus on playing football and frequent gym training. In mid-2018, Wiz decided to hang up his boots due to a second knee injury and shift his focus entirely to CrossFit.

Clynton Janke
Clynt has 10 years of CrossFit training under his belt. Originally starting his journey as a stereotypical gym junkie; Mondays are for 'Chest & Biceps', his love for playing Rugby led him down a route of circuit type workouts - which looking back was similar and/or a scaled down version of CrossFit. A part from playing rugby all his life, he dabbled in MMA for a few years, also mainly for rugby fitness in the off-season.
Favorite thing about CrossFit: "the community and helping others achieve 1sts. No matter what it may be; Pull up, HSPU or a max lift, I get excited if not more so than the person who just achieved it - It's a rewarding feeling. I also love programming crazy, exciting workouts that people love!"
Graeme Richardson
Time with CrossFit - 7 years
CrossFit is way more than just physical fitness - it’s a chance to be around a great group of people who like to have a laugh and take a real interest in you and your progression. For a lot of people starting something new can be a bit intimidating, so it’s important to me people feel welcome. I like to make sure our new starters have someone to chat to before class and introduce them to other members, so they feel part of the team. A lot of people have an opinion about CrossFit, most of them have never done it. I’d say come and have a chat, see what we do, and make up your own mind.
Adrian Layec
First introduced to CrossFit in 2019, Adrian became curious to the world of functional training performed at high intensity and ditched his classic gym training. What kept him in at the start wasn't the training itself, but the community that surrounds CrossFit - "Encouragement, suffering and laughing together felt like a second family, and I wish for new people to feel the same as I do." Through his experience of learning to push himself in his training, he has built a love for helping others achieve something they never thought was possible.
Favorite thing about CrossFit: Heavy squat cleans and bar muscle ups.
Teina Fairbrother
Through encouragement and support from the Remy community, Teina began her CrossFit journey 4 years ago. She has now competed in various team & individual comps. Teina strives to motivate, encourage and uplift members, finding a way to care by pushing others in the right direction "pick that bar up and not back out, it's all mindset". She may be one of the newest to join the crew but, Teina has a large range of experience under her belt - from 5+ high intensity group fitness classes to being a personal trainer to her own weight training.
Favorite thing about CrossFit: Clean/ Jerk & Handstand Walks
Jess is newer to the Crossfit Scene with only 2 years under her belt. However, her experience in coaching streams much wider with qualifications in Sport Coaching and Strength & Conditioning. She has always been active playing high level sport and so being in the CrossFit community felt like being on a team. Her competitive nature means she strives to always be better and push herself in her own training. Jess has a passion for seeing others succeed and achieve their ‘firsts’. Whether it’s hitting a PB or achieving your first HSPU she is always encouraging you to give it your best or just give it a go.
Favourite thing about CrossFit: “The Community. I always feel welcome and encouraged to push myself while never feeling judged with the Remy Crew. They are the best. “
