Our Philosophy
Mechanics. Consistency. Then Intensity.
We teach kids to move well first, then build confidence through repetition, and only add intensity once they’re ready. Just safe, fun, and effective exercise.
Benefits of CF Kids
Physical literacy: Builds coordination, balance, agility, strength, and endurance.
Healthy habits: Encourages kids to see exercise as fun, not a chore.
Confidence: Achieving small wins in workouts gives kids a sense of accomplishment.
Community: Teaches teamwork, encouragement, and respect - mirroring the adult CrossFit community.
Sport support: Helps with performance and injury prevention for other sports.
What is CrossFit Kids?
Programmed for kids & teens
(generally 3–18 years).Movements are scaled to age, maturity, and ability - lighter loads, simpler skills, shorter workouts.
Sessions are playful and engaging, often using games, challenges, and teamwork to keep kids motivated.
What to Expect
Preschool (3–5 yrs): Fun games, animal crawls, obstacle courses.
Kids (5–12 yrs): Bodyweight skills, light weights, teamwork games, short workouts.
Teens (13–17 yrs): More structured training—strength, conditioning, and barbell technique to prepare for sport or adult CrossFit.
CF Kids Safety & Structure
Technique before intensity: Kids learn proper movement mechanics first.
Bodyweight focus: Most workouts rely on bodyweight movements (squats, push-ups, jumping, running, climbing).
Light implements: Medicine balls, light dumbbells, PVC pipes, kettlebells, and resistance bands are introduced progressively.
Short sessions: Typically 30–45 minutes, with warm-up, skill/strength work, workout/game, and cool-down.
