What is the 'Core?'

The core is the source of true strength & power. Many core muscles were also designed to protect the body and create stability. For our purposes we are referring to your body from your hips to your shoulders.

While we like mirror muscles too – we train for performance. Fitness that was meant to be used. All the other benefits follow. Our training gives you the strength, stamina and mobility to play & work hard. Designed as cross-training for climbers - we also attract lots of skiers, runners, bikers, snowboarders, military and folks who just want to be in better shape.

Our training is both performance and injury-prevention minded. We’ll train you to be strong now – and for a long time to come.

Both Advanced & Conditioning Classes will be Combined for the summer.

Meet us @ 6 on Wednesdays! If the weather is nice - we'll be outside on the gym lawn.


Through the summer I'll be borrowing & adapting the Function is Fitness regimen from the folks at My Mad Methods.
