On Ramp Program

Crossfit On Ramp Classes are designed to spend additional time on the foundational movements the individual has learned in elements, as well as develop strength and endurance to prepare for the coed/women's only programs. The class structure will have a strength component followed by a short crossfit workout that will engage the 10 general physical skills listed in your what is fitness hand out.

ON-RAMP classes meet twice per week for a minimum of 4 weeks - a minimum of 8 sessions. If proficiency and competence has been shown while performing a specific set of skill-oriented CrossFit tasks during this 4 week period, the individual is able to move on to the Coed/Women's-Only classes. If more time is needed to further achieve proficiency, the athlete will be encouraged to attend another 4 week session of the ON-RAMP class to ensure a successful transition into the Coed/Women's-Only classes.
