TESTIMONIAL
I am absolutely, totally addicted to Crossfit.
Being a former competitive athlete, I find that my competitive spirit is rekindled through Crossfit.
It is just like playing a sport.
I feel very fortunate to have found this training protocol
Giselle and I are hosting a 2 hour Introduction to Stretching Workshop this Saturday for those who are interested.
This is the first of four planned workshops (the others being an Upperbody Focus, a Lowerbody Focus, and a Total Body Focus), and will be considered a prerequisite for the ones that follow.

Sunghee Lapell is putting on a wonderful 1 day seminar aimed at putting you in closer touch with yourself through Laughing Yoga. I'll be attending this event and invite everyone to join me.
It may seem like a curve ball but I believe we must strive to find a voice for all parts of ourselves.
As a part of the school we really want to reach out to a broad community in order to allow our coaches and apprentices to better understand the human body in all its stages of fitness through life.
We have a number of "older" athletes and they are gold for our community. I really see great value in having more experienced people in my life and I believe our entire community will benefit from the wealth of knowledge these people bring about life itself.
There is nothing more inspiring than having people in their 50,'s 60's an 70's form bonds with those in their 20's and 30's. It is a win for all of us.
I encourage each of you to reach out the special "older" people in your lives to come in and see how much Crossfit Vancouver can improve their health and general well being as well as find new friends in a great community.
Carl is a beauty, a great ambassador for this cause, and an inspiration to everyone of every age in our box.
When you see Carl in Class punch him in the stomach...He likes that stuff.
Eventually one of these videos will have him doing Crossfit.
