New Classes for 2013

I hope everyone had a awesome and safe New Year! I also hope everyone is ready to refocus and reach your goals for 2013. If you have not thought up at least two goals, DO IT. A goal board will be up at the gym today for you to start writing them down for everyone to see. Examples of goals can be anything like stringing 10 double-unders together, to squatting 1.5x your bodyweight, to a sub 5 minute Fran. Having difficulty thinking of your own? Please talk to either coach to figure out what is best for you!
Thanks to everyone who completed the survey we sent out. In an effort to accomodate the wishes of our members, we have made a few changes to out schedule…
