Taken early last year during one of our last Community Classes

We know that a number of people are ready to get into the gym for the first time in a long time, or that you may have been referred to us by friends or members of the gym. We also know that we haven’t had any FOUNDATIONS On-Ramp classes in a while.

Well the wait is over! We have a new series of classes coming for the uninitiated and the experienced alike!

We’d like to present SKILLS. We’ll have a rotation of six classes with a focus on improving at least one lift: deadlift, clean, back squat, shoulder-to-overhead, bench press, and snatch. Along with the lifts you’ll be introduced to different ways of warming up, and each class will also involve a conditioning workout that may or may not leave you panting hard.

Been in the gym for a while? Then you can still attend- our coaches know how to get you to the next level and you may possibly set a PR during these classes.

More details coming soon!
