The Grand Re-Opening Party Was A Big Success

Just ask "BARx", the pup.  
A.K.A. "Barks".  Get it?


Enjoy some pictures from the party. 

We promised cool tattoos and think we nailed it.  
What do you think? 
(The perfect spot for the coolest tattoo.)


We had an obstacle course, which are always a hit because they're fun and a great way to improve your fitness.  

The obstacle course for the day included tires, tunnels, 
running and slam balls.  

Coach Ed giving the obstacle course "low-down".

These boys waiting patiently for their turn.  Thanks!

We started with tires.  Why?  Because tires are just cool.  You can...

JUMP IN AND OUT OF THEM

  


PULL THEM
             















WATCH THEM

EAT WITH A FRIEND IN THEM

(This was not part of the obstacle course, but looks like a great place to sit down and eat.  Who needs a table when you have a tire?)

NEXT UP, TUNNEL CRAWLS


RUN DOWN THE ALLEY

PICK UP A SLAM BALL
 
AND SLAM IT 
AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN.  

We had a BBQ.  
Thanks Mr. Gippo for being the grill master. 
Girls grabbing some grub.  


While all that was happening outside, this was happening inside.     

Handstands, handstand walks, rope climbs and WODS.  Amazing!




And the quote of the day comes from Miss Mia!


Thanks to all the families who came out for the day to help us celebrate the move. We had a great time and hope you did, too!

2015 Summer Camps
2015 Summer Calendar - All Classes
Theme-Of-The-Week Classes
(Check every Sunday in summer for more information on what's up for the week.)

Now.  
What could you do if you printed those out?

Hang them on your refrigerator, 
a mirror, bulletin board, the front door.

Keep them in your car, your backpack, your purse
Just not the floor.


Here's a place to keep them, the best place for you.
Bet you didn't think to put them in your 
parent's or your gym shoe.

You'll always know what's in store this SUMMER.
Don't want to miss it, that would be a bummer.

We have classes for preschool, elementary, 

pre-teens AND teens.
We do not recommend wearing blue jeans.

We'll squat, push, pull, lift, jump and run.

Guarantee we know how to make fitness fun.

You'll work hard and challenge yourself.

So put those phones and video games up on the shelf.

Workouts are constantly varied, nothing is the same.
Not even Dodgeball, a favorite all time game.

Classes are for all levels of fitness and athletic ability. 
We work on building STRENGTH and FLEXIBILITY.

CARDIOVASUCULAR AND RESPIRATORY ENDURANCE 
are important, as well.
A  WOD might include swinging kettlebells.


(Weights vary and are modified by a  coach)

How's your ACCURACY and COORDINATION?
 Your STAMINA?  We'll work that, too. 
Let's go the duration.

That's not all, those are only a few,
There are 10 General Physical CrossFit Skills
taught by the coaching crew.

How about we practice the ladder 
for AGILITY and SPEED? 
Ok good.  Glad we agreed.

Last but not least, there's BALANCE and POWER.
Have you looked at the schedule yet?!
What's your class hour?!

Take a break from the pool.
BARx Kids and Teens RULE.

Sign up for a month or just drop-in.
Whaddaya say?  
Let your SUMMER of fitness begin.

Did you know BARx CrossFit moved to a new location? 
That means BARx KIDS moved, too!

AND WE'RE HAVING A PARTY!  
(or we have already had the party 
if you're just tuning into our site)


We don't have a balloon arch, but these are BARx colors 
and looks like a lot of fun to have at a party.  


We are celebrating our move 
and want to celebrate with you!
