New Schedule, Specialty Classes and On Ramp

Okay so the new schedule for classes at the gym is up.  We are trying to add somethings that we feel are need at CF Flex and we are very excited about getting some specialized instruction in a variety of skills for our members. 

First we will be starting our ON Ramp class for new members on March 5, 2012.  It will be a one week tutorial in basic movements for CrossFit M, W and F at 6 pm all new members will be required to take it.  However, any current members who did not get the benefit of an On Ramp experience can take the class for a small charge anytime you would like (we will have official pricing posted soon).  We are hoping this will improve coaching during group classes and allow for everyone to get the need attention from the coaches.
On Ramp class will only be held if we have new members signed up for it or current members who want a refresher.  If no one is signed up then we will have a six pm class that week.  Information will be posted about those times slots on Sunday before each week so you can plan ahead for your class times. 

Specialty Classes:  We will be holding between 4 and and 8 specialty classes a month for members to come to.  The areas of emphasis will  be Olympic Lifting, Gymnastics, Endurance, Pull Ups (I know this is a gymnastic movement but it deserves its own class), Rowing.  We will have a flat rate for all classes that month which members can pay up front and a drop in rate per class if you would like to pick and choose which one you would like to do (Pricing information will be posted soon).

Last Level Testing:  I am looking at playing with the idea of level testing for all members.  This is more about goal setting than anything.  I will give athletes a list of skills and reps or time domains and work capacities for WODs to try and accomplish over a period of time.  Athletes can progress from level 1-4 and track progress on individual skills sets. 

Just some information for our awesome community and some things to think about.  The new schedule will come into effect on Monday February 12, 2012.  We have added a lot and eliminated some but our hope is to make things better for everyone.  You ask and we will do our best to deliver.  Thanks for all of your loyalty to the community at CF Flex.

Really this is the last thing I have not posted an article for a while, but CrossFit changes peoples live here is an article from the Journal http://library.crossfit.com/free/pdf/CFJ_CFLife_Jess_Kelly.pdf, but I know all you have to do is get to know the people who walk in our doors everyday and they have great stories about how this sport and community has helped them and made a positive change.  Enjoy!
