​

Pre-teens (Ages 8-12)

​

45 minute class where a light load may be introduced via lightweight dumbbells, kettlebells or barbell if impeccable form can be demonstrated. The Pre-teens class still comprises a majority of bodyweight/gymnastic movements based around skill development, a wod (workout of the day) and game (if time permits). This program is a great primer before transitioning into Teens / regular CrossFit.

​

Teens (Ages 13-17)*

Teens are included in our regular 1hr CrossFit class which combines all of the elements of our CrossFit program. Barbell movements are introduced (beginning with a broomstick). No additional load is added until impeccable form can be demonstrated. Our coaches keep an extra close eye on Teens. They are expected to behave like adults and need to be able to interact well with adults in this class. 

*Teens will need to complete an onboarding program to be able to participate in the regular classes. Contact us for more information
