Ijeoma Uzowuru

GROUP CLASS COACH

Fitness Education: CF1 & Basketball training camp.

Why I Love Fitness: With an extensive sports background, I walked into my first CrossFit box in Dec. 2018. It has and still challenges me to push myself beyond my limits. I remembered my first push-up, first pull-up, first toes-to-bar, and each Personal Records, which has taught me that failure is not something to be feared or avoided, but rather an opportunity to learn and improve. I am grateful for the opportunity to exercise, to improve my health, and to enjoy myself.

Favorite Movement: Deadlifts, Wallballs, and Rowing. 

Fun Fact: A fun fact about me is that I am Nigerian-born and love traveling and exploring new cultures. I have visited more than 41 countries in Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania, North America, and South America, and counting. Traveling has broadened my horizons and given me a deeper appreciation for diversity and humanity. Some of my favorite travel memories include climbing a pyramid in Egypt, camping in the Sahara Desert, hiking in Croatia, and walking with Lions in Senegal.
