  • “CrossFit itself is defined as that which optimizes fitness (constantly varied functional movements performed at relatively high intensity). CrossFit is also the community that spontaneously arises when people do these workouts together”- Courtesy of CrossFit, Inc.

    This program allows you to work with barbells, kettle bells, dumbbells, slam balls, medicine balls, etc. The daily workouts can be modified for those new to the program. Our classes are limited to 15 participants, giving you the attention you need from your coach.

    Outside of the class, our coaches are available for 1-1 training, and are eager to help you learn the basics or reach a new personal record (PR). The time to act is now! Join the Revolution!
