OUR COACHES
Britt Kompelien
Owner/ Coach
I started CrossFit in 2017 at the age of 37. Having never been an athlete, I was worried about my lack of experience in a gym. Little did I know that CrossFit Allectus was made up of an incredibly awesome and athletically diverse group of people who had very different ability levels but were all there for the same goal and purpose: to be better every day. It didn’t take long for me to come to appreciate the extensive benefits of CrossFit and the people and coaches at the gym. I’ve been here ever since and completed my Level 1 CrossFit coaching certification in 2018.
Favorite CF movement: DB snatches, double unders, and anything with a barbell.
Least favorite CF movement: T2B
Sam Haley
Owner/ Coach
I started CrossFit in 2014 and joined CF Allectus in 2015 when I moved to Alexandria from the cities. I was instantly hooked on the methodology, constant variety, and coming from a competitive background, it greatly appealed to me. I enjoy coaching as it gives me a first-hand opportunity to help others becomes the best version of themselves in the gym. I grew up playing baseball, basketball, and football. I still play town ball with the Urbank-Parkers Prairie Bombers and attribute my ability to still be competitive against younger guys to CrossFit. Who says you can’t be a starting shortstop at 35 years old.
