BOBBY NOYCE –CrossFit Level I Certified Instructor & CrossFit Endurance Certified
Bobby was born and raised in Des Moines, Iowa. Bobby graduated from Valley High School and is currently a student at Drake University. Bobby plans to graduate in the Spring of 2011 with a degree in Economics from the College of Business and Public Administration. Bobby comes from an athletic family and has been active his entire life. Growing up Bobby played any and every sport that he could, and while in high school he won state championships in both football and hockey. He then went on to play Division II college football. After his sports career, Bobby has continued to keep health and fitness a high priority in his life. He has always had a passion for sharing his knowledge on health and fitness to anyone that would listen. Bobby believes he has truly found something special in CrossFit, and like most, only wishes he had found it sooner. He loves to train, he loves to teach, and most importantly he loves CrossFit.

“In all of my years of pursuing physical fitness, I knew CrossFit was something very special from my first workout. With CrossFit, I have been able to surpass what I had believed to be my physical limits, and I am fortunate to watch the very same happen to others around me on a daily basis. But CrossFit is more than just a fitness program – it is a way of life. Each workout provides us with an opportunity to grow, in body and mind. It is a daily reminder of the pursuit of excellence, teaching us courage, commitment, and the will to succeed.”

JAIME NOYCE  –CrossFit Level I Certified Instructor & CrossFit Endurance Certified
Jaime is very passionate about sports and has been involved in them all her life. Growing up in West Des Moines, she played many sports at Valley High School, including tennis and cross-country, and she played Division I collegiate tennis for the University of Northern Iowa.  She graduated from UNI and when Jaime is not training at CrossFit 515, she currently works as an actuary at Nationwide Insurance.  She also enjoys running and before finding CrossFit she completed the San Francisco Marathon as well as a number of half marathons and triathlons.  Jaime has found in CrossFit something very exciting that she wishes that she had known about when training for her past sports, like tennis.

“I have always been a very competitive person, so I love that CrossFit has made working out into a sport.  But it is more than that, and for me the best part is watching people change their habits, diets, and lives for the better to improve on their workouts and ultimately to be healthier.  I love being a part of that!”

LINDSAY VAUGHT – CrossFit Level I Certified Instructor

Like Jaime and Bobby (Lindsay’s siblings), Lindsay played about every sport growing up. Lindsay ran cross country and was a pitcher for the softball team at Valley High School. While attending college at Miami of Ohio, Lindsay began running longer distances and completed the Cincinnati marathon in 2004 and 2005 and the Chicago marathon in 2005. Lindsay earned an undergraduate degree in Economics from Miami of Ohio and graduated with a law degree from the University of Denver in 2010. She currently clerks at the U.S. District Court in Des Moines. She started doing CrossFit in June 2010 and is convinced it is the best way to maximize anybody’s fitness potential.

“Health and fitness have always been important to me, but after being introduced to CrossFit I realized my definition of ‘fitness’ was incomplete. I used to think my capacity to run long distances was the ultimate indicator of how ‘fit’ I was. I would run a lot, do a little weight training, do some sit ups, and thought I was in great shape. After Bobby put me through my first CrossFit workout – Kelly – I knew CrossFit was something that could truly make me fit. As a trainer, I love helping people learn new skills, encouraging them through hard workouts, and watching them change their perspectives on fitness as well. CrossFit teaches people to push beyond their perceived physical limits and break through mental barriers; I’m grateful to be a part of it.”
