About Coach ELLA WILKINSON
Ella Wilkinson is not only one of the UK's top CrossFit athletes, but one of Europe's best too! Her performance at the CrossFit Games European Semifinals in 2022 and podium appearances and wins at SID UK Championships and Proving Grounds show testament of her incredible athletic abilities.
Before bursting onto the CrossFit scene in 2016, Ella was in the Team GB squad for Double Mini Trampoline, so from bar, to rings, to floor gymnastics, she is breathtakingly fast and smooth.!
As she continues to work towards heading back to the CrossFit Games Semifinals, she's also a CrossFit coach and passionate about getting you upskilled in all things gymnastics.
Come and learn Ella's gymnasty ways at Gymnastics Social on Thursday 1st February!

Flo is not only team MLA's host and partnerships lead, but also a CrossFit and weightlifting coach. Having dabbled with gymnastics as a child, she found her calling as an adult through CrossFit and has since started coaching others to enjoy the challenge of and find one's confidence through gymnastics.
WHAT TO EXPECT

Team up and Train
We will start the evening with a 90-minute training session. We’ll warm up, go over technique points, and work on some gymnastics progressions. Then you’ll get into a team of 2-3 and work together in a sweaty, heart-pumping metcon workout.

Ask Ella anything
Don’t miss an opportunity to connect with Ella! We’ve planned a Q&A so bring some questions and find out more about the daily life and preparation of a CrossFit Games athlete.
-
Mingle
By this point in the evening you’ll know at least 2 other people you’ve already worked out with! Stay back and get to know them (and a few others!) a little better. We’ll have drinks and snacks provided so stay with us till the end and make the most of the night.
