Everyone has a why

our story

Everyone has a why – and this is ours… 

Here is a little insight into the journey of FORM so far, from FORM owner André + Kate (+ little Nico)

Ok, so yes, there are so many stories online about how CrossFit and Functional Fitness changes lives. But it’s true, it seriously does. For me, discovering Functional Fitness not only led to me opening the first FORM Box, it also given me a family, a purpose and a kick-ass community.

My CrossFit journey began in the Fire Service. Whilst competing at the 2010 World Firefighter Game in South Korea, I travelled with the (now legendary) Sam Briggs – winner of the CrossFit Games 2013 – who was at that time also a Firefighter like myself. I had to discover how Sam had reached such an amazing level of fitness! She described with passion and clarity how CrossFit had transformed her life. I took Sam’s advice and set about finding a CrossFit box (not an easy task back then as Crossfit had only just started to slowly infiltrate the UK). I was immediately hooked and it wasn’t long before I was a true advocate of Functional Fitness. I helped to open one of the first CrossFit affliates in the region – CrossFit West Yorkshire – which still has its home at FORM to this day.

I am evangelical in my beliefs about the life changing benefits of Functional Fitness, regardless of age, injuries and current fitness levels! That’s why alongside CrossFit we also offer our FORM60 programme.

Underpinned by the same Functional Fitness ethos as CrossFit, FORM60 introduces a wide range of movements and workouts suitable for absolutely everyone. It WILL make you feel much healthier, more energised and more present in your everyday life. Workouts are scaled and modified for each person to help you become healthier and fitter. Grandparents and Olympians can perform modified versions of the same general workout! 

For established CrossFitters, you’ll find everything you need from a top level box; world-class coaches, a close-knit and ultra supportive community, plus great coffee! We also host our very own CrossFit competitions, the nationally renowned Form Fitness Series. 

FORM is much more than just a business; it is at the core as a true family affair; I run FORM with my partner Kate, who is also Head Coach at FORM and you’ll often see my son, Nico (now 3), around and lending a hand!

All I can say is if you haven’t tried Crossfit or Functional Fitness yet, why not?! It literally changed my life for the better and without it I wouldn’t be who I am today.

Come and see for yourself by trying a taster session. It’s amazing the difference it will make to your fitness, life and mindset… Are you ready?
