The Cornerstone Story
We may not be for everyone, but we are for anyone, of any age and ability. Our distinctive is that we value the importance of human connection over impersonal ‘globo’ gyms for the masses. This means we will remain intentionally smaller, and will genuinely partner with you to be healthy and vibrant. Cornerstone CrossFit was borne out of a deep desire to be our members’ second home, and each class the best hour of their day. We truly believe that there is no better methodology than CrossFit for long-term, sustainable fitness and health. It is truly for anyone, with each movement and workout being infinitely scalable to suit the individual.

Meet our coaches
Julia Stanmore
HEAD COACH (CF-L2, First Aid)
After starting my CrossFit journey in CrossFit Kids twelve years ago, I was drawn into it by the community and I have been coaching for the last seven years. I love the variety within CrossFit and I have never got bored of it and it is the only sport that has the 10 components of fitness which encourages physical preparedness. I love seeing the empowerment that comes from people achieving things they never thought they were capable of and that they can do more than they believe.Â
Jack Crawford
COACH (CF-L2, First Aid)
I have been a part of the CrossFit community since 2017 and it has helped me not only push through some extremely challenging experiences in the defence force, it has given me a sense of confidence to tackle anything that thrown at me and to excel at it. As a coach I want to help people by prioritising strong positions that imitate how the human body is capable of moving to grow strong in natural movement patterns.Â
Joel Deans
OWNER / COACH (CF-L2, First Aid)
With over 50 years of life experience, I have always had a passion for fitness, starting from a young age growing up in Switzerland and PNG through to my time in the army, including a stint in the Special Forces. Now with my corporate life largely behind me, my passion is to help others – especially masters athletes – build healthy habits across all areas of life. I believe true health involves not just physical strength, but also mental and spiritual well-being. My mission is to walk along others creating balanced, empowered lives, no matter their age or starting point.
