Assistant Coach
SAM BURNS
OVERVIEW:
Born and raised in Portland, Maine, Sam discovered CrossFit in 2017 and quickly transitioned to coaching, becoming a full-time trainer by 2018. He now resides in Gorham, Maine, with his wife and two sons, balancing his family life with his passion for fitness and coaching.
As a Certified CrossFit Trainer (CF-L3), Sam is fortunate to work with athletes, coaches, and affiliate owners with several other organizations, FitFilliate, at local CrossFit affiliates, and through personal training. His obsession with gymnastics was exacerbated when he was exposed to The Gymnastics Course, and he resolved to pursue a position with the staff immediately after.
Bringing the same experience he had with TGC to others is what drives his work with TGC. After having been the beneficiary of amazing coaches and mentors, Sam believes it’s his responsibility to pass on that same knowledge and experience to others so that the rising tide of virtuous coaching can raise all boats.
“Do the uncommon, uncommonly well.”
