Important announcement: Just a reminder that there is a Level 1 class at 5:30pm (downtown) tonight. This class is meant for beginner athletes or those athletes that looking on freshening up on their skills. There will be significant time emphasized on technique, not intensity in workouts. Lately there have been more intermediate and advanced athletes attending the class than beginner athletes. Please come to an earlier or later class that day so that we can leave the space for those that really need it. This class is promoted to new members as a beginners class for technique as well as a non intimidating class with no advanced athletes. Thanks for your understanding!
