New to the game?

For those new to CrossFit experience, we provide 2 options. First, we hold regularly scheduled foundations classes where we will work as a group, beginners will be welcomed and led by a certified trainer through one of our foundation workouts. During our Foundation’s classes you will have the opportunity to learn about our training philosophy, the fundamental movements of CrossFit, and how CrossFit training can be applied to your goals. You will also get to experience a CrossFit workout firsthand.

If scheduling is a concern or private, one on one personal training is preferred, we offer an Introductory Program. Both of these paths allow participants to learn the basic exercises and movements of the CrossFit system in a fun and interesting way.

Experienced CrossFitter?

For those already experienced with CrossFit workouts, we offer 1 free class. Contact us to let us know when you will be coming!

Want one on one attention?

For those who want the additional focus and attention of a personal trainer, we offer a variety of coaching packages. We look forward to working with you to improve your overall fitness or just address specific areas.

All set to get going?

Please contact us to let us know you will be coming to one of our CrossFit Foundations classes, or to schedule a personal training session.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Adam Morden, and the rest of the team at Crossfit for their help in getting me in the best shape of my life and recommending anyone with any doubts of their potential to give them a month of your time to rid you of those doubts. When I first contacted CrossFit I had been working out in my basement as well as a local “club” for about 4 months without any satisfactory results, I knew what had to be done, I just lacked the motivation and drive to achieve my goals of passing the “York physical” (a job specific physical test required by Fire Services). Upon speaking with Adam at Crossfit I realized that with their help and the competitive nature of the workouts this test could be a breeze. From the time I put my application in till the time of my interview (aprox 5months) they were able to transform me from an obese sloth that couldn’t run 100m to save his life into a “lean” fat guy that was able to pass the physical quite readily (although the running thing still needs lots of work) and get hired on with one of the most respected fire departments in the country on my first try. I have enclosed a before and a “on my way to” after photo, I am currently on a fourteen week layoff from Crossfitting so as to avoid any possible injury that would preclude me from graduating from this program although the day following graduation I will be at the front door of the gym waiting for it to open and continuing on with my progress. I will send my true after picture once I have reached my goal of being a “lean” lean guy.
