you have to start to be great"

We aim to achieve this using the principles of CrossFit, which is a core strength and conditioning program designed to optimize physical competence in each of ten (10) generally recognized fitness domains namely: cardiovascular and respiratory endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, coordination, agility, balance and accuracy. The CrossFit method has had great success, not only with individuals and communities, but also when applied in schools, law enforcement and athletic organizations. Our mission is to create a fitter, healthier, happier and more prosperous Curaçao.
MANAGING DIRECTOR, COACH
IVAN DE WINDT
Ivan has always been a mutli-sport athlete that loves to compete. Since graduating university and taking on a career in finance in New York City there hasn't been much room for competitive sport. Going to the gym didn't really provide the fitness or competitive stimulation he was looking for. In the summer of 2011 he was introduced to CrossFit and everything changed. Ivan found the balance he was looking for and much more than that. At the end of 2013 Ivan and his partners launched CrossFit 5 Triple 9 with the mission of building a functional fitness facility committed to Quality Coaching and Client Satisfaction.
