Danielle Dionne

Danielle is a CrossFit Level I certified instructor, USA Weightlifting Club Coach, and is certified by the National Exercise and Sports Trainers Association.

Danielle helps clients achieve their goals in a fun, effective, and safe way based upon her enthusiasm, diverse background as a competitive athlete, and knowledge drawn from 7 years of coaching and personal training experience.

CrossFit creates a sport out of exercise and offers the camaraderie, challenges, and level of fitness, which I sought as an athlete and continue to seek in my daily training regime.

In 2003, she became a personal trainer and fitness/BootCamp instructor at Gold’s Gym; additionally, she taught BootCamp classes in the community, strength/conditioning classes at a Krav Maga Studio, and assisted coaching in a local high school lacrosse conditioning program.

Danielle draws experience as a former swimmer, and collegiate and club rugby player for the Maryland Stingers. After playing competitive sports she sought other outlets such as training for a marathon, boxing, and experimenting with strength and conditioning programs. Her commitment to the fitness industry and quest for an ideal program united with her discovery of CrossFit. She began “Crossfitting” at a “commercialized gym” stockpiled with traditional weightlifting machines. Seeking a less restrictive environment, and upon completing her CrossFit Level I certification, Danielle identified that her commitment to fitness extended beyond a client-trainer relationship to building a strong community, providing members with a motivating environment for success in pursuing their fitness and lifetime goals.

Train what you enjoy and most importantly what you dislike; exceed yourself.

Danielle is currently a dedicated CrossFitter, who placed 8th at the Mid Atlantic Regional Qualifier, 3rd in the Last Chance Qualifier, and placed 37th in the 2009 CrossFit Games.
