Courtney Barbour

Head CrossFit Coach

When she tried CrossFit, she immediately fell in love with the challenging workouts and genuine community. Now, as a coach, she loves helping athletes accomplish things they never thought possible! She firmly believes that the gym can be a place of empowerment and joy for everyone who walks in the doors!

David Hederman

COACH

When David and his wife April had three boys, all under the age of four, David knew he needed to find something to help him stay physically, mentally, and emotionally healthy. After hearing about Crossfit from some friends, David decided to try it in 2015, and he’s been hooked ever since.

Within the first year, the Crossfit methodology helped to reduce David’s resting heart rate, lowered his cholesterol, and decreased his body fat. Now Crossfit continues to help David be an active parent for his sons as the whole family learns and plays new sports together.

As a result of his experience with Crossfit, David has a strong desire to help others discover the functional fitness approach that translates into many other facets of life.

Tristan Fauré

Owner, Head CrossFit Coach

Tristan first started CrossFit in 2016 as a way to help with his decathlon training. At the end of his track and field career, Tristan found the sport of CrossFit to be a perfect outlet to fill his competitive void. His love for the sport developed into a passion for coaching others with this training philosophy. To him, coaching is more than helping others achieve a new Personal Record or lose weight. Coaching serves as an opportunity to boost confidence, break down barriers- mental or physical, and create a sense of belonging/community. Coach Tristan looks forward to helping everyone he works with achieve their own definition of success.

Tristan has 3 years of CrossFit coaching experience and 9 years of overall coaching experience. Prior to CrossFit Doors of Daring, Tristan was the Director of Health and Wellness for Red Ventures in Fort Mill, SC.
