Krix Luther

Founder, brain child and inspiration behind CBBC

Krix Luther Phuket Personal Trainer

Krix has been living, training and working in Phuket for 13 years. He spent the first few years training and fighting Muay Thai at a professional level and was undefeated for a long time. Having built himself a reputation as the Darth Vader of personal trainers. (interpret that as you may?!) But locally in Phuket, he is lovingly referred to simply as “coach”.

Having set up a Thai boxing gym in the UK, he never entirely made it back there as planned and, fortunately for Phuket, has stuck around proving himself not only in the ring but thru the test of time.

Krix’s calm resolve to see things through and his genuine love of Phuket, the island he calls home, leads the Clean the Beach Boot Camps. Krix’s magnetic personality, years of PT training, and drive to see people lead a better life make for an enjoyable time on the beach! So if you want to learn how to move, exercise, do yoga, save the environment, make new friends, and laugh plenty, then come and join the CBBC family!

You can find out more about Krix and his work on his website KrixLuther.com or his social media links below:

Other members of the clean the beach boot camp team

Colin Gallagher

Ambassador

Thailand Volunteer Colin

Colin Gallagher (AKA Dolly) A Lecturer in Advanced English Business and Intercultural Studies at Prince of Songkla University

Colin is in his sixth year of an awe-inspiring career as a University lecturer, but his talent doesn’t stop there. Colin is also responsible for a continuous cycle of 80 international students who arrive to study and enjoy Phuket’s beaches twice a year. Keeping these students calm, safe, entertained, and educated is not a feat to be underestimated. With his cool cat persona, which makes us occasionally wonder how he looks after himself, let alone so many others, Colin not only smiles his way thru but can often be seen dancing too!

Helping take CBBC to the next level, Colin now makes it part of the Social activities for all international PSU students, helping educate them on how to be environmentally conscientious during their stay. As a result of this attention, the number of Thai students increases week on week.

Always knowing how to draw a crowd with his smile and warmth, Colin is the perfect PR person for boot camp and life on the Island in general!

Xiaonan Feng

Ambassador

Thailand Volunteer Nan

Xiaonan Feng (Nan) is from Beijing, China but has lived in Thailand for many years. As a Professional Free Diver and Scuba Diving instructor, she always had a passion for being environmentally conscious. Whilst setting up her Scuba Diving Business (Ocean Gravity) in Phuket, she heard of Clean The Beach Boot Camp. She joined and volunteered many times and went above and beyond to help. So it was only natural for her to become a permanent part of the Clean The Beach Boot Camp team.

Nan runs the Clean The Beach Boot Camp environmentally friendly products. She comes up with the idea, talks to the manufacturers and distributors and makes sure everything runs smoothly.

Ghislaine Bovy

Ambassador

Thailand Volunteer Colin

Ghislaine Bovy, nicknamed GiGi, anchored in Phuket onboard “Minuit” in 2002 during her circumnavigation, which lasted until 2010. Back in Phuket in 2014, she decided to focus on the marine industry as a marketing consultant and offer her services as a volunteer to ocean protection organizations.

Joining the Clean The Beach Boot Camp perfectly served two objectives she had in mind: joining a fitness activity while proving beneficial to the environment. An active supporter of Greenpeace and Sea Shepherd, GiGi believes there is a chance to save the oceans from massive pollution, and it starts with us.

Local initiatives are critical to the process, and she certainly is pleased to be part of Clean The Beach Boot Camp as a regular fan and active “Office” member.
