Read-Your Rest Day: Don’t Waste It from Catalyst Athletics. Admittedly, this is so me some nights. I wake up in the morning full of anger and anxiety because I screwed around on my phone for an extra hour before I finally fell asleep. Don’t let it be you. Intention is all well and good but action (and SLEEP) will make the morning much better.

Upcoming Events:

Level 1/2 Test: Monday, January 25th at 7 pm. If you want to take (and pass) this test, sign up is an absolute mandate. You’ll find it in the same place you sign up for class under Workshops.

Level 3 Test: Saturday, February 6th at 10:30 am. Reminder that you’ll need to know to DAM and Speed Ladder in order. Why? Because you are setting the example for newcomers. Do us proud. 

American Heart Association CPR/AED Certification: Sunday, February 7th at 1:00 pm. $30. We have 1-2 spots open for members. Email ivy@mvmntgym.com to secure a seat.

The Movement Fix Workshop: Sunday, February 21st, $199. In a nutshell, specifically designed for athletes and trainers to identity mobility weaknesses, learn how to fix them and set PRs. We’re in. You can learn more here. (Gym is closed all day.)

Gym Closure: This Saturday & Sunday for a chiropractic seminar. 

And of course, registration for the 2016 Open starts tomorrow.
