Natasha Johnson coaches Kalli Campbell and Gabrielle Knox in rugby and CrossFit
A couple of high school athletes are using CrossFit to help train for another rugby season in Williams Lake.
“With Tasha being the coach for both CrossFit and rugby, I got more and more involved in the rugby community,” she said. “CrossFit and Total Ice Gym been amazing for keeping me fit and strong for rugby and my other endeavours.” Since Knox was first introduced to rugby in the fall of 2021, she has gone on to play club rugby, in addition to the school team, having recently competed in Australia with the BC Bears sevens team. She explained that she went to Total Ice constantly, like she still does now, to get into prime condition for that tournament.
Despite having multiple coaches throughout her rugby journey, Johnson credits Lee for showing her another side to preparation and training. She also attended a CrossFit gym, where she learned more about building a supportive community, and this experience fueled her desire to create a similar environment at her Total Ice gym.
