Heidi Straus

CrossFit Coach and Youth Coach

Hey guys, I’m Heidi! I’m originally from South Africa where I spent the first 21 years of my life before embarking on a new chapter here in Minnesota. That’s where I crossed paths with my wonderful husband, Mike.

In South Africa I was a high school Math and Biology teacher. I also coached Netball and Weightlifting to students. I was invited to take a Crossfit class with a co-worker, and I immediately fell in love with it and grew super passionate about everything Crossfit has to offer! Moving half way across the world isn’t always easy, but I immediately joined my closest CrossFit gym and made awesome friends! I started coaching Crossfit and absolutely love it! Crossfit has an amazing way of bringing people together and creating awesome bonds. It’s fun doing hard things together! My husband and I love being active together. We enjoy all sorts of outdoor activities like downhill skiing, water skiing, hiking, running and sports! Crossfit lays such an awesome foundation for a fit and healthy lifestyle! I’m so excited to be coaching at FitHAUS!
