Coach Sabry

Founder, Co-Owner and Head Coach

Banker turned fitness enthusiast, I turned my own life around at 32. After weighing in at 133kg, my goal wasn’t to look like the next magazine cover model; it was to make sure I had a 50th birthday party with my friends, family and community. 

 

I truly believe that when you consider asking someone for help, you generally turn to those who know exactly how to do so. I’m not here to tell you that my transformation meant a crazy diet or training 7 hours a day. No; in fact, I built up a way of life from the inside, out. It started by changing my mindset, to my nutrition and my fitness. 

 

And in doing so, I built up more than a healthier lifestyle. I built up a passion for fitness and helping people. I built a community of like-minded members who too, only wanted to see a better version of themselves. I built up a reason to build others.

Coach Karen

I started CrossFit nine years and it soon became a big part of my life! 

I turned my passion for fitness into a dream business by co-founding SKFitness. In September, we launched SK Queens, a program empowering women over 40 through strength and conditioning—something I’m deeply passionate about.

 

I’m committed to creating a supportive space where everyone can grow stronger, healthier, and more confident.

Coach Charlotte

Crossfit Coach

Having played sports all through my life, I started CrossFit in December 2023 at SK Fitness to get stronger and fitter for my sport. I instantly fell in love with it and since then SK Fitness has become my second home! I completed my CrossFit Level 1 course in June 2024 and now coach CrossFit and CrossFit Kids at SK Fitness. I can't wait to see where CrossFit takes me, having already met some incredible people and having loads of fun at competitions!

​

Outside of CrossFit I play lots of netball, alongside completing a Masters in Psychology! I was born in Australia but have lived in Dubai since 2005, leaving to go to Loughborough University in the UK from 2017-2022 before moving back to Dubai.

Coach Hannah

Kids Crossfit Coach

My day job is in sales, but my passion lies in fitness, especially Functional Fitness. I have worked with Sabry for the past 5 years, coaching both adults and kids, and I run the Kids Crossfit programme at SK Fitness.


I love seeing progress in myself and others, and I'm constantly amazed at what the body can achieve at any age and from any starting point. 
 

When working with kids, I love going back to basics with them, giving them a strong foundation of functional movements while improving their health -  which is so important in this era of technology. 

​

I'm originally from the UK, but I have also lived in South Korea and have now been in Dubai for 6 years (I'm also finally trying to learn Arabic!).

Coach Ilde

Crossfit Coach

I am a CrossFit Level 1 Trainer and fitness enthusiast dedicated to pushing my limits and inspiring others.

 

I am Italian although I grew up in England and I have been living in the UAE since 1996. When am not rescuing cats and dogs you will find me at my second home, SK Fitness. 

​

 My Crossfit journey started 10 years ago, and I quickly became hooked on the combination of high-intensity workouts and supportive community atmosphere. From achieving my first double under and conquering my first handstand push-up to competing in competitions, I embrace every opportunity to step outside my comfort zone to improve myself both physically and mentally. Crossfit has taught me perseverance and to believe in myself and I am committed to helping and inspiring others to achieve their goals.
