Luke Wewege brings a distinctive calm to his coaching at CrossFit Kreis 9, blending a decade of experience with his expertise in Sports Science and Biokinetics. Originally from South Africa, he was drawn to CrossFit for its diverse movements and community spirit—a vibe he finds even stronger at CFK9. Beyond CrossFit, Luke also works as a strength and conditioning coach for youth athletes in other sports, where he supports young athletes in developing their skills sustainably.

Luke’s coaching philosophy centers on longevity and patience: “Do no harm, listen to your body, and choose your moments.” Known for his steady, mindful approach, he guides members to progress thoughtfully, with a strong emphasis on form and sustainable strength. Passionate about Olympic lifting, he’s dedicated to helping athletes build lasting skills. Outside the gym, he enjoys rugby, braais, golf, reading, and being near water. Reflecting on his journey from building a practice in South Africa to adapting to life in Switzerland, Luke values his mentor’s advice that what truly sets you apart is how you treat others—a philosophy he brings to every session at CrossFit Kreis 9.
