Our Mission
Safe, encouraging, and built for growth.
To provide a safe, encouraging place to be challenged and grow as a strong community of athletes and humans, from the inside out.
The story of Tony and Shannon Phillips, CrossFit Maumelle, and the community that grew from it.
As a couple, we have more than 15 years of CrossFit experience, 12 years of coaching, and over 30 years of teaching and managing people. Fourteen years ago we started our pursuit of health and fitness and saw firsthand how it transforms lives. After four years of being CrossFit athletes and furthering our knowledge through training and educational courses, we were presented an opportunity of a lifetime: run a CrossFit affiliate.
This was something we had dreamed about as a couple but knew it was a big responsibility and questioned if we were equipped for the job. After much prayer and counsel with trusted mentors, we felt confident this was the direction God was taking us and that we just needed to create a safe space, use our gifts to the best of our abilities, love on everyone who came into the gym, and trust God for the rest.
Since 2014 we have been able to purchase the gym, see the love of God shared with every person who has come through the doors, watch amazing relationships grow, see lives transformed from the inside out, confidences built, bodies changed, and quality of life improve. We are stronger together.

This was something we had dreamed about as a couple but knew it was a big responsibility and questioned if we were equipped for the job. After much prayer and counsel with trusted mentors, we felt confident this was the direction God was taking us.
We just needed to create a safe space, use our gifts to the best of our abilities, love on everyone who came into the gym, and trust God for the rest. Boy was that a great decision.
We have seen the love of God shared with every person who has come through the doors, amazing relationships grow and develop, confidences built, bodies changed, fitness goals met, and people make health and wellness a priority again.
