Classes

A typical one-hour class includes a warmup, skill or strength work and a metabolic conditioning segment (the WOD) with total body fitness in mind. This is a coach-led class that can be modified to fit anyone’s fitness level.

A wide variety of functional movements, power lifts and Olympic lifts are used on a regular basis in the class. Any implement in the gym is fair game: bike to rowers, sandbags to slamballs, kettlebells to barbells and more.

Prior experience or Foundations program are required to participate (except Saturday class).

This is a 6-session personal training program that will teach you the foundations of powerlifting and Olympic lifting while improving your fitness level with metabolic conditioning training.

You will participate in five personal training sessions and learn the basics, then move into the group setting with a one-on-one trainer for one class. The first five sessions are scheduled with a personal trainer, the remaining class allows you to attend any CrossFit class you would like.

It's never too early to get them started with a healthy relationship with fitness.

Others choose yoga as an effective, natural way to relax and relieve stress. Many people find that the longer they develop their yoga practice, the more their practice begins to focus on self-actualization in addition to its many physical benefits.
