***ATTN ALL CROWNTOWN MEMBERS – We are adding another program. A Yoga class focusing solely on increasing your flexibility. Also, breathing exercises to strengthen your diaphragm. Both of these skill sets are great compliments to CrossFit training. They will help you recover from previous workouts and also allow you to achieve new range of motion during your WODs, which will increase strength and performance. We are very excited to be adding this program for all CrossFit members. This class will be instructed by Lauren Lujan every Thursday at 8am, and additionally, two Friday’s per month at 5pm beginning February 7th. The class will be 45-60 minutes in duration. Cost = $0 for all CrossFit members. You read that right. Another perk for CrownTown members I highly suggest you take advantage of.
