CHALLENGING OURSELVES TO SEE WHAT WE ARE CAPABLE OF

WHAT WE STAND FOR

Training with intent. Showing up consistently. Putting in the work. Earning progress rather than chasing shortcuts. We are designed for everyone, from first-time gym-goers to competitive athletes, all training under the same standards and principles.
Founded in 2013, we were built to create a better way to train. A gym focused on strength and conditioning, quality coaching, and long-term development, where training has purpose and progress is earned.

PROGRAMMING WITH PURPOSE

Our programming is built around purposeful, structured training that develops real capability. Sessions balance strength, conditioning, and skill, progressing movement patterns and building fitness over time. We focus on doing the basics well and creating training that’s challenging, effective, and sustainable, with the aim of consistent improvement rather than short-term results. Our approach is grounded in CrossFit, used as a framework for long-term, well-rounded performance.

MANAGING DIRECTOR

MITCHELL BERNARD

Founder and driving force behind Pac. His background spans competitive CrossFit, over a decade of coaching, and the building and operation of multiple health and performance businesses.

While sport informs his understanding of training, his focus extends well beyond the gym floor. The work is about building environments, systems, and programs that support long-term performance, consistency, and real-world capability. The approach is practical, evidence-based, and results driven, with a strong emphasis on sustainability and both physical and mental wellbeing.

At Pac, this shows up in clear standards, in-house programming, and a culture built around effort, accountability, and earned progress. The gym reflects a broader philosophy: training should have purpose, business should be built properly, and results should stand up over time.

DIRECTOR

SAMANTHA ROZITIS

Samantha plays a key role in shaping how we operate day to day. Her background spans CrossFit coaching, functional movement, and over a decade of experience as a yoga teacher and teacher-trainer, giving her a broad, practical understanding of training and movement.

Her focus is on creating environments that support sustainable training and long-term wellbeing. She has been involved in the development and operation of health and wellness businesses, with a strong emphasis on systems, consistency, and recovery that allow people to train hard while staying balanced.

From member experience to operational flow, Samantha helps ensure the environment supports the training being done. Her influence reinforces a culture built around consistency, resilience, and training that fits real life, not just ideal conditions.

PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT

MICHAEL LAGATULE

Michael leads the development of Pac’s programming. With over a decade of coaching experience, he brings a considered approach to how training is structured, delivered, and progressed across the gym.

His work goes beyond physical output alone. Michael integrates principles from sports psychology into everyday coaching, helping athletes develop not just strength and fitness, but confidence, discipline, and consistency in how they train. The focus is on creating sessions that challenge people appropriately and support steady improvement over time.

At Pac, this results in programming that is structured, adaptable, and sustainable. From first-time gym-goers to experienced competitors, Michael’s influence ensures training remains purposeful, balanced, and built to support long-term development.
