Meet Your Coaches

Owner and Head Coach

• Fitness industry for 10+ years

• Fully certified strength and conditioning coach

Ed cannot remember a time when Fitness wasn’t part of his life! Since leaving school he has worked in the industry, running super successful bootcamps in Hobart until the opportunity came up to own Hypegym.

The epic programming at Hypegym is thanks to Ed and his love of creating unique, effective, challenging and fun workouts for the crew.

He loves to create a pumping community that brings the best vibes to our members and help take their fitness journey to the next level. Ed is often planning the next weekend hike, lunch or brunch as the gym is more than a workout, it’s about creating lifelong friends too.

He value’s a balance between work and play and loves being outdoors on the weekend hiking with friends to relax and reset his mind.

Coach

• Cert III in Fitness

She has been with Hypegym from the beginning! A coach, a regular in our classes and often with her phone in hand capturing content for our social media.

Sarah’s life has been full of sport and activity from a young age; a swimmer, netballer and horse rider in her younger years, then finding a love of CrossFit in her early 20s.

With a busy professional career outside of coaching, Sarah strongly believes regular and consistent movement has been the key to maintaining a healthy mind and body throughout the most challenging times at work over the last 10+ years.

Landing in Tasmania in 2020, Sarah felt it was a great opportunity to further share her love of movement by officially becoming a Coach and getting her Cert III.

Nat has always been heavily involved with sports since a young age, mostly team sports such as basketball, netball and softball in school.

It wasn’t until her mid-twenties that she was introduced to martial arts and found a refreshed passion for health and fitness through wanting to evolve her competitiveness in the sport.

Nat is one of Tasmania’s most prolific female grapplers and has achieved great success on the competition circuit, both nationally and internationally.

With her competition career slowly coming to a close, these days, Nat’s favourite thing to train is anything with a heavy barbell and loves a CrossFit comp!

You can find Nat singing along to some epic pop punk and rock bangers!
