AMIE MAGUIRE

Amie began her athletic endeavors in 2001 when she joined AmKor Karate Institutes. Through AmKor she earned her 4th degree Black belt, and competed on national and international levels. Most notably were her repeat Gold Medals earned in Cardiff, Wales in 2011 and 2012. Amie started instructing as an assistant in 2010 and continued until 2016. Along with Martial Arts, Amie was a track and field sprinter and hurdler for her high school, and an avid horseback rider.

She had dreams of becoming a full-time competitive athlete, however, in early 2013 she found out she had Lyme Disease and Babesia. Her focus had to shift from competitive athlete into one dedicated to general health and wellness. For a little over 2 years she was off and on oral antibiotics as well as needing a PICC line inserted in 2015 to receive daily antibiotic infusions.

None of that stopped her because 2014 Amie enrolled in the National Personal Training Institute to earn her personal training certification. She then continued to gain more knowledge by applying for a coaches internship at Crossfit West Chester. She quickly realized the CrossFit Methodology and approach to health and wellness aligned with her own beliefs. Her internship merged into her joining the coaching staff at Crossfit West Chester. From there she earned her Level 1 USA Weightlifting Coach certification in 2015. After gaining years of experience as a coach and trainer, and in order to further spread her reach within CrossFit Community, Amie joined the CrossFit MFP coaching staff in 2018.

Through her journey of finding CrossFit, she realized she was passionate about fitness, health and wellness. It became important to her to help others pursue greater health, and she believes a majority of that comes through the food we eat. Currently Amie is enrolled at West Chester University in the pursuit of a B.S. in Nutrition and Dietetics, with a minor in Coaching.
