History
Jamie was a qualified practising Personal Trainer In 2003 after serving seven and a half years in the Royal New Zealand Navy. During his time in the New Zealand Navy at the ripe old age of 37 Jamie also completed the S.A.S. Direct Entry selection course.
After his Navy service, he transitioned to operating as a Strength and Conditioning Coach in Cairns, Australia in 2004.
With an initial Business partnership in Auckland CBD in New Zealand with CrossFit Kia Kaha in 2012, a "bricks and mortar" company, Jamie realised the CrossFit method on its own merits was not delivering the results he was looking for.
Jamie founded JMT in 2014 in Kuwait U.A.E. where Jamie was a sole contractor to the Kuwaiti Royal Family Ghada and Imad Al’saba.
After a 12 month contract completion he relocated JMT to the Sunshine Coast and officially opened the first Jamie Milne Training facility and community in Warana in August 2015.
