The Coaching Evolves Team
Danny Mellor
“For over 17 years, I’ve been immersed in the world of coaching, education, and athlete development. As a CrossFit Level 4 Coach and longtime member of CrossFit HQ’s global seminar staff, I’ve had the privilege of teaching L1 and L2 courses worldwide, mentoring coaches and refining training methodologies. I’ve built and operated my own gym, worked with affiliates, and understand what it takes to create meaningful coaching experiences. Now, with Coaching Evolves, my focus is on pushing the profession forward—helping coaches move beyond instruction to create real impact in the lives of their athletes.”

“With a background in both military and civilian fitness, I’ve spent my career focused on coaching excellence and athlete development. As a former Physical Training Instructor (PTI) in the Australian Army, I developed a strong foundation in leadership, performance, and physical preparedness. That experience led me to CrossFit, where I became a Level 4 Coach and a global educator for CrossFit HQ, delivering L1 and L2 seminars worldwide. Today, I own and coach at CrossFit Sisyphus on the Sunshine Coast, and through Coaching Evolves, I’m dedicated to elevating the standard of coaching—ensuring that trainers don’t just teach movement but evolve into true leaders in the industry.”
