Center campus, is dedicated to CrossFit® training and is equipped
with rowers, Airdyne® bikes, kettlebells, medicine balls, barbells
and more. CrossFit workouts incorporate elements from weightlifting, gymnastics
and metabolic conditioning (cardio). Classes are designed to motivate

functional movements like squatting, pushing and pulling, and they are
performed at an intensity level that suit you best.
Our CrossFit classes accommodate athletes of all levels and experience.
These workouts are designed so that anyone can step into one of our classes
and be successful. Each class will consist of a general and specific warm-up,
specific instruction on technique for that day, practice time, workout
and cool down post-workout. Visit
