James and Deanna Mawson

Tribe Mvmnt Owners

Tribe MVMNT began over 10 years ago with a vision to create a community where like-minded people could belong and transform their lives through exercise and nutrition.

Starting as a small bootcamp, that vision took shape and quickly grew into a strong tribe of hardworking, fun individuals. This led to the founding of CrossFit Wangaratta, where we've been introducing people to strength training in a supportive group setting ever since.

As our family of 3 young children grew, so did our community. In 2019, we rebranded to TribeMVMNT, capturing our mission: A tribe of dedicated individuals striving for personal growth and positive change within a connected community.

Carly Yashenko

General Manager

Carly has been a dedicated member of Tribe for 6 years. When she's not ensuring everything runs smoothly at the gym, you'll catch her at the 6am class each morning, starting her day the right way.

Carly is also the creative force behind our social media, capturing the essence of our community through the lens of the camera.

Outside the gym, Carly enjoys spending time with her partner and two dogs, playing netball on the weekends, and creating content for brands in the beauty & fitness industry.

She believes finding balance in life, through fitness, fun weekends with friends and family or indulging in a drink or 5.

Ashleigh Hanby

Admin Specialist

Ash is our admin guru and can assist you with any queries within the gym.

She loves staying active with gym sessions and long walks, especially while listening to podcasts. She is a coffee enthusiast, big on a good food, and has a serious sweet tooth!

She enjoys cooking delicious meals for her family and most importantly, is a proud mum to three little ones.

Beyond his certifications in CrossFit (Level 1 & 2) and USA weightlifting (Level 1), Nazar loves helping people reach their goals and live healthier, stronger lives. And when he's not coaching, you'll likely catch him listening to his favourite country music tunes.
