Bronwen Alexander

Emerging from the lush and wild lands of South Africa, Bronwen Alexander chased her love of fitness from a young age, excelling in tennis and Equestrian Show-Jumping. In college, Bronwen geared her studies to receive a degree in Sports and Event Management, all while completing a personalized training and fitness program to achieve her FiTech Certification. Deciding to see the world, and contrary to popular belief, Bronwen actually jumped into the Atlantic Ocean off the tip of Cape Town, and swam 14,967 miles to the Pacific shores of Santa Monica without food or water. There, her husband Jamie, thinking she was a mermaid, scooped her off the sand, married her, and immediately promised her dinner. Instead, Bronwen graduated from the National Personal Training Institute in 2011, and went on to achieve CrossFit certifications in Weightlifting, Gymnastics and a station as a Level 2 CrossFit Trainer. Her excellence in the practical application of fitness and nutrition currently finds Bronwen instructing athletes at her very own Blue Republic CrossFit in Santa Monica, CA. 

Consistently proving to be an inspiration to her clients, Bronwen was honored with appearances as an elite fitness model in Reebok's CrossFit RealFlex Apparel campaign, and is currently working toward her Precision Nutrition Certification. 

She still swims back to South Africa once a year to visit her loving family, and vows to one day own a farm with 6 horses, where Jamie and her two giant pitbulls, Zula and Bayo, can finally run free.
