It takes a village
The CrossFit Midtown community is growing. And as our student body and programs expand, so does our need for a strong team.
I’m so proud to announce, as we build that team, that Beka was promoted this month to Assistant Operations Manager at CFM!
If you train in the mornings, you know Beka well already as she coaches the early birds four days a week. She’s also added a few noon classes to her coaching schedule, as well as some intro sessions. Beka will also be helping with some event planning, accountability & nutrition coaching, and she’ll be taking the CFM reins while I’m on vacation next month (Amen :)).
Beka came to us from another local CrossFit gym, with some CrossFit & boot camp coaching experience. She heard about our Instructor Training Program (ITP) last fall & contacted me to learn more. We met a few times, and soon she was active in ITP, then coaching classes, & now she helps run the program along with Cassie!
Along with Cassie & Carlos, Beka also recently attended Carl Paoli’s Freestyle Connection Movement Seminar. We’ll share more of her tips from that workshop on the blog next week.
Congrats on your new role Beka, and thanks for all you do!
As always, let any of your CFM coaches know how we can help improve your training & quest for better health & fitness.

Congrats to CFM's new Assistant Operations Manager Beka!
AND CONGRATS to all the peeps getting on the LEADERBOARD for today's 2k ROW TIME TRIAL: Jim in the #2 spot… just 2.2 seconds shy of #1. NEXT TIME!
And the ladies are jockeying positions like crazy – with Casey, Leslie & Tirzah enjoying time up there before Sara (new #1), Amanda (new #3), Allyson B (new #4) & Anna (new #5) pushed them back off!
Urán loses her title and holding tight in #2… you going to make it in tonight to reclaim #1?
Thanks so much, Lis! And thank you for all the support guys, it really means a lot to me. Very excited to keep growing with CFM! 🙂
You could have told me I was that close, COACH.
Way to go Beka!!
Remember that time, BEFORE THE TIME TRIAL, when I told you the ranges it would take to get on the leaderboard? Next time you should listen, STUDENT.
Congratulations Beka Carson!
Hahaha I'll be in there ITP testing, so we'll see how it goes after that. 🙂 Congrats to the new #1!
Well deserved!!
Congrats Beka!!!
