Zoe Anderson
Coach · Queen B · Women's Health Specialist

Hello! I'm Zoe — new mama, long-time coach, and big believer in the power of movement to make your life better. I started this gym with Urban to give people a space not just to workout, but to have the best hour of their day.

For over 10 years, I've been helping people feel stronger, more confident, and more connected to their bodies. I want to know your goals, your story, and how we can make movement work for your life.

I specialize in coaching women through all phases — whether you're navigating your cycle, dealing with perimenopause, or finding your strength post-baby (like me!). My mission is to make sure you feel seen, supported, and empowered every step of the way.

Background: Psychology degree from UC Davis, CrossFit L1 & L2, Precision Nutrition, Women's Hormone Health.

Urban Anderson
Co-Founder · Coach · Full-Time Firefighter Paramedic

Co-founder, coach, full-time firefighter paramedic, part-time helicopter rescue paramedic, avid fitnesser, surfer, climber, and lover of trying hard in all avenues of life.

Urban loves nothing more than some good old-fashioned type 2 sufferfest kind of fun. His calves may be small but he makes up for them with boundless positive energy — and he can't help but share his stoke in helping those around him create a life filled with passion, purpose, and intent.

Chris Esquivel
Head Coach · CF-L2 · Holistic Health Coach

Chris' journey through health and fitness has been a long and winding road. As a high-level athlete with a long and complicated injury history, Chris knows first hand what it feels like to get thrown out of a routine — and how we respond in those moments defines us far more than any setback.

Armed with an ACE trainer certification (2010), CrossFit L1 (2016), ADAPT-Certified Functional Health Coach (2022), and CrossFit L2 (2023), Chris' main focus is on holistic health and practical tools for people to thrive in a complex modern world. Consistency and strong foundations are the key.

When not in the gym you'll find Chris on the golf course, deep into a crossword, making food with friends, or tearing up the dance floor with his wife Sandra.

Chris is available for remote health coaching, nutritional guidance, and bespoke personal training programs.
