Movement techniques will be drilled as well as a progressive introduction to the intensity levels that are inherent in our group classes. If you are unsure as to whether you are a good candidate for beginning in a class setting, please contact us.
Sign-up for the CrossFit OnRamp
Why is the OnRamp required?
For two reasons:
- For you Safety - You will learn, in great detail, all of the movements performed in a CrossFit Workout.
- No One is Left Behind - After completing the OnRamp you will be able to jump in a program and feel confident in the skills you have learned.
It is our experience that new entrants into our CrossFit program- regardless of fitness level, require a great deal of attention and coaching to become comfortable with the CrossFit movements & philosophies. It is very difficult for our trainers to coach fast paced group workouts and provide full attention to new folks at the same time. Coming into an all levels CrossFit class unprepared could be a recipe for injury, frustration, misunderstood concepts, or a combination of all.
Our CrossFit OnRamp Workshop takes place at Bulldog CrossFit (The Dog Pound) in Oak Park with morning and evening times being offered. New OnRamps start every two weeks. We limit the size of our OnRamp Bootcamp to 6-8 enrollees to give you the personal attention required for learning these movements quickly. Sessions fill quickly.
Once you have completed the CrossFit OnRamp and show proficiancy in the basic movements you will be eligable for continuing CrossFit classes. It’s ok if you still need a little work once you’ve finished your OnRamp class. We continue to work on skills no matter what level you are.
The OnRamp Bootcamp is only $180.00. (That’s only $22.50/class compared to $70+ for personal training)
