Sorry you didn’t win last night. But registration for the 2016 CrossFit Games starts today…..probably won’t win that either. Playing is just as fun though (I swear)! When the west coast finally wakes up, you can sign up at games.crossfit.com.

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.

American Heart Association CPR/AED Certification: Sunday, February 7th at 1:00 pm. Sold out.

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. You can learn more here. (Gym is closed all day.)

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

SAVE THE DATE: On February 27th, Annie DeCrescente makes her professional MMA debut in Chattanooga (the closest she’s ever fought to ATL). We’re all going! Details and tickets are here. We’ll probably caravan up that day. Maybe we hit up a local CF gym before the fight? Food, beverages, fun? Open to suggestions!
