As a former CrossFit box owner in Peru, Jean-Paul has been coaching since 2013. He believes that CrossFit is not a means to an end for most people, but that it makes people better at what they love. This was true for him with basketball, cycling and swimming. It’s an innovative form of functional training and it truly matters what you do outside of the gym and not just inside. JP likes to keep his workouts fresh and innovative, and the serenity of an early morning to write out his programming for the day is his favorite part of being a coach.
Coach Rashad started CrossFit in 2019 after growing up playing various sports and doing personal training . He previously coached at his own gym in Florida before returning back to the Bronx. He is a CF-L2 (CrossFit Level 2 Trainer) and especially enjoys coaching kids of all ages. He loves a tough workout himself but knows how to adjust a workout to each client’s ability. In his free time, Rashad loves exercising his 90lb dog, spending time with his kids, reading, and eating everything.
Calder has been coaching Weightlifting and CrossFit since 2013. Being an active kid all his life, Calder started focusing on Weightlifting and CrossFit in high school. Eventually, he started competing in these sports, and as he got older, he realized how important being an athlete is for his mental health as well as his physical health.
Raul was fortunate to have been introduced to CrossFit during undergrad at Fordham University. After being served a heaping slice of humble pie during his first WOD ever, “Filthy Fifty”, He realized this was either something special or something only special, sadistic, crazy people do for fun. Perhaps a little bit of both?! Needless to say, He was hooked! With a jock background & growing experience in Sport Medicine at the time, Raul was influenced to peruse his CrossFit Level 1 designation & later his CrossFit Level 2. He then began coaching CrossFit style classes at his college under the club name RamFit (hence the Fordham mascot). Soon thereafter graduation he moved to Georgia then Louisiana for job opportunities while simultaneously further refining his CrossFit coaching skills, techniques & abilities on the side while also dabbling in the competitive space. Most recently he has expanded his health, wellness & fitness knowledge by becoming a NASM Certified Trainer and earning the Precision Nutrition Level 1 Certification to now offer nutritional & lifestyle coaching . “I’m glad to be part of the CrossFit SPOT team & can’t wait to build with all of you!
From law school to leading fitness sessions, my path to becoming a CrossFit trainer has been anything but typical. As a former track and field athlete and competitive CrossFit enthusiast, I transitioned from practicing law to following my passion for fitness full-time. I thrive on helping people push their limits and grow stronger every day. With a background in managing a high-end gym and a dedication to mastering all aspects of fitness, I’m here to ensure every workout is inspiring, effective, and, most importantly, enjoyable.

This was my first CrossFit class, and I know why this part of the workout world is known for their sense of community. The staff were welcoming, knowledgable, and helpful, and the other people in the class took time to let me feel included. The class I took was a solid mix of weights and conditioning, and left me feeling strong through the day.
