The program will focus on expanding your athlete’s current athletic talents and most importantly, identifying and eliminating their weaknesses.
Our mission is to use the off-season to build a solid foundation for high school sports by increasing athletic potential through increases in strength, speed and agility. Training will focus on learning quality technique and movement patterns within a safe, challenging and competitive environment.
We also offer adult barbell camps. These camps are 6 weeks long and two classes a week. Our goal is to build solid foundations on the olympic lifts. Olympic lifts are the snatch and Clean & jerk. We focus on ironing out the important fundamentals of each progression. This takes practice and consistency. We are also an official barbell club with USAW (USA weightlifting). We offer weightlifting meets. UA also uses this platform as a scholarship program. We prep high school athletes for College weight lifting and can help them get a scholarship in this sport. Every year college scholarships are left on the table because teens aren’t trained in this sport. Some high schools have power lifting. Power lifting is back squat, bench press, and deadlift. None of the high schools offer Olympic lifting. Most high schools around our area don’t offer either. We feel it is a great opportunity to prep our teens for this sport. It can provide a college education that they otherwise may not have had. We hope to impact our youth in a positive way with such a program.
CrossFit Kids is meant to be BIG fun for all ages. Broad-Inclusive-General fun. Fun means we provide an active alternative to sedentary pursuits, which means less childhood obesity and all-around better health for our children. Further, the needs of second graders and high-school varsity wrestlers differ by degree and not kind; the program is scalable for any age or experience level and accounts for the varied maturation status one can find in a class full of kids. CrossFit Kids is designed to be minimalist; it is inexpensive and often requires little or no equipment, allowing a wide array of socioeconomic groups an opportunity to be physically fit and physically active throughout their lives.
