Valentina Oxley

My name is Valentina and I’m one of the coaches at Nexo CrossFit.

My journey in CrossFit and in Nexo started from my love for sport. Having competed for many years in gymnastics I needed a new sporting pursuit and when I found CrossFit I knew it was the place for me. What attracted me at first and what keeps driving me in CrossFit is the constant challenge and demand for improvement. With so many different movements and styles of training the opportunities to improve yourself are limitless.

When I joined Nexo and started to build a relationship with Carola and Zoltan I realised that what they had I could have to. The possibility to combine my love for CrossFit and teaching and call it my “job” seemed like a dream and thanks to Nexo it was made a reality. The pursuit for improvement everyday is something highly valued in nexo and makes it the perfect space for me to continue developing as a coach and an athlete.

What I love the most about coaching is connecting with people and having an impact on their session. Whether it’s helping someone to achieve a new skill or motivating them to push a bit harder in a workout.

I would say that what we have in Nexo is pretty special and I feel lucky to call it a home away from home.
