Our Crosswinds CrossFit Kids have so much fun doing fitness, they don’t even realize it is fitness! They begin with a warm up, stretching, do a quick workout and finish with a game. They learn not only basic physical skills, but also social skills and confidence. Children learn fundamental movements including squats, push-ups, pull ups, climbing, jumping, running, stretching and elementary gymnastics movements. More importantly, your child will also learn to follow directions, listen, communicate, and play with others. Every class includes game play and positive reinforcement. Your child’s confidence, both physically and mentally, will grow with each class.

L.I.F.E stands for Longevity In Functional Efficiency and its aim is to demonstrate that no one is too old or out of shape to benefit from the basic CrossFit principles of utilizing a variety of functional movements to enhance quality and quantity of their lives. 50 years of age or older encouraged, but ages 18+ welcome.As in our regular classes, L.I.F.E offers safe, effective workouts - a "gentile" version of CrossFit with more emphasis on mobility and longevity and less on competition and intensity. We start where you are and take you to more than you thought you could. Many doctors recommend weight training to build bone density and cardio to help with brain health. We get to do both in these classes!

Are you looking to help your teen be stronger, faster, and healthier? We have a great program ready for you!

Using this formula average athletes become great and great athletes become unstoppable!

Yoga Nidra is practiced lying down. This practice is highly guided and takes your attention to specific places through a series of steps. The specific instructions make it easier to relax than in meditation. During Yoga Nidra, you move into the state of conscious deep sleep. You are no longer in the waking state of consciousness, you move past the dreaming state of consciousness and into the deep sleep state. Your mind is actually awake, it is the state between being asleep and awake. Yoga Nidra is restorative and rejuvenating for the body and mind. The mind is conscious, and the body is in a restful state.
