At the beginning of each class you can expect a group warm up that targets specific areas to help prevent injury and prepare for the daily workout.
Skill
A short exercise or focused lift dedicated to correct form and buiding strength.
Work Out of the Day (WOD)
Our WOD is different every day. It is a higher intensity workout with varying movements, times, rep schemes. This is where you will push yourself to grow. Our coaches will assist to ensure proper form and weight. This can vary and be adjusted based on skill and experience. It is a motivating individual effort with an encouraging group.
