Coach Nick began his coaching career in 2010 at Boston’s CrossFit Southie. He spent five years there as Head Coach and weightlifting and endurance programmer. In 2018, Nick moved to New York City and coached at a number of gyms around the city, looking for the right fit. Ultimately he found his place as Head Coach at CrossFit Metropolis in East Harlem. But the gym was forced to close during the pandemic, leaving the community he’d discovered without a place to call home On Christmas Eve 2020, Nick struck a deal with the old Metropolis landlord and The Borough was born. With the help of the ‘Trop community he had grown close to, Nick opened the doors on February 1, 2021 — the rest is history.
