TESTIMONIALS
I can't recommend Sands enough!
I was a new starter to CrossFit, I had been in the gym before and wanted to get into CrossFit but was worried it would be very clicky.
This was the only box where I felt welcomed and supported from day one! From the members to the coaches, couldn't say a bad word about this place!
Regardless of age, fitness level or previous CrossFit experience, Sands caters to all abilities and embraces everyone into its community. ......all of the coaches are incredibly knowledgeable. It's great to be trained by fitness professionals who have a real passion for their job.
I have also been doing PT with Coach Fil for a few months to supplement my weekly classes and I'm now much stronger and capable of things that were previously impossible for me. Thank you, Sands!
The coaches will guide you through proper form/techniques and they'll provide "scale down" options for most exercises to start you at the level you're ready for.
In every class I've attended with 10+ people, there were different fitness levels, usually a mix of males/females, different ages from mid-20s to 40s/50s, some fairly new to CrossFit and just getting into shape, and some who've been coming almost daily for months or years.
I've been to several other boxes. Sands stands out among them, with excellent coaches and friendly staff.
The coaches are encouraging, friendly and make it fun every time! The people you meet are of mixed abilities and are all friendly! I leave feeling inspired and strong!
Feeling fitter, stronger and more mobile. My chronic frozen shoulder is loosening up too.
The coaching team are great and everyone is super friendly and encouraging. Joining Sands has been the best decision.
After two years of CrossFit with Sands I was encouraged by Coach Casie to join Coach Fill (kudos to Casie!!!!) for Personal Training to address self taught errors that not only held back further progress but opened me up to potential injury.
Three months later and I wake up pain free yet well conditioned and feeling stronger than before. Coach Fill is a technician and a specialist.
The Sands Fitness community is a place of encouragement, hard work and a lot of humor with dedicated and knowledgeable trainers. Fun and sweat all round and of course inevitable fitness!! Thanks to Cyrus and the gang!
The coaches are knowledgeable and passionate about what they do and are always pushing to take your fitness to the next level. Class booking and workouts of the day are easily checked online through an app.
I tried PT sessions with the knowledgeable and super friendly coach Fil, and was able to see tangible progress. The owner and staff are a delight to deal with and are always available.
I highly recommend Sands Fitness to anybody looking to get an outstanding CrossFit experience, you won’t regret it.

Our CrossFit Kids program emphasises good movement throughout childhood and adolescence in a fun environment.
Consistently good mechanics translates to physical literacy, enhanced sports performance, and fewer sports injuries for kids.

JUNE MEMBER OF THE MONTH - JEN CVETKOVIC 🙌
Jen is an absolute gem of a person, she is a mother of 3 seriously cool kids and she is an athlete who has yet to understand how much she is truly capable of!
As a regular in the morning classes, Jen religiously comes to class 5 days a week. She puts in the hard work and we have seen her get stronger across every single movement but the real cherry on the top is we have seen her confidence grow!! Over the squat cycle Jen went from a 55lbs FSQ 3RM to 85lbs, she has gone from a PVC OHS to 35lbs. She has now OFFICIALLY moved on from the training bar in every lift, that’s right Jen no more shiny silver bar for you!! All those goats days working on your mobility is paying off! 🙌
Your energy is contagious and we love having you as a member at the box. Don’t stop chit chatting to everyone, laughing and bringing the good vibes. You rock 💪🤩🙌 and the fact you have brought your daughter into the box to do PT so she can get that “badass” feeling when she walks out is truly testament to the energy, effort and hard work you put in!!
AND lastly… what perfect timing, Jen has just celebrated her first year at Sands 🥳 and her first year of doing CrossFit so it’s the perfect time to call her our ‘Member of the Month’!! Have an awesome summer holiday Jen, you deserve it, keep training and see you in September 😘

WHAT A WEEKEND for the Sands Athletes, Comp Squad and Community! 🏋️♀️ 💪
On Saturday Sands had 5 teams enter a competition at FlyHigh and WOW these guys did us proud….
JAY AND PAT - absolute legends. Jay was hitting goal after goal the week before the competition with his first TTB reps, 55kg squat snatch and DUs. The fist pump before each wod showed everyone that they were a team, a team that supported eachother, celebrated their own victories, pushed to their limit and had fun 🙌
SHADA AND HAYA - a mother daughter duo that is nothing short of inspirational. Their team name “she got it from her mama” is so true, Shada is an absolute power house and Haya is very quickly showing us what she is made of… in a few years we will have a CrossFit athlete on our hands 🙌
NICOLA AND DARIA - absolute die hard beasts that will be a force to be reckoned with over the next year! These two have gone from strength to strength over the last year and there is going to be no stopping them in comps going forward! Just wish they had got to the QFs and had been pushed to their limits in the squat snatch and C2B wod. They would have shined! 🙌
HOLLIE AND OLIVIA - these two are insane athletes and have been working hard not only the week before the comp but over the last few months! You guys did not give up! If they had had a running wod you would have kicked some serious butt. 🙌
AND lastly our coaches FIL AND DANE, what an insane team they make and a total inspiration to watch. Congrats on your podium finish. You lead by example and we are honoured to have you as our coaches at sands! 🙌
Massive thanks to Cyrus, Dani, Sam, Shane, Steph and Jacqui for coming to support. This community rocks 🥰
