June 2024 Newsletter
June 2024 Bells & Bars
The Monthly CFTC Newsletter
CFTC Team-
Congrats to everyone who joined us for Murph last Monday and for the Forging Youth Resilience IGNITE fundraiser the previous Saturday. Shout-out to Juan for his generous donation.
On Memorial Day and the days prior, we had 20+ people rise to the challenge to complete this daunting push-up, pull-up and squat-filled workout. For the 10th year, CFTC was proud to be an official host, and you'll see the 2024 Murph banner hanging soon. Congrats for finishing, whatever version of the workout you did! Check out a short video of everyone's effort >>

Happy June!

Announcements
Welcome Coach Kevin!
Coach Kevin comes to us with a passion for fitness and a more recent commitment to be the best CrossFit coach possible
With background in endurance sports like swimming, track and triathlon, Kevin is now just as excited to get people strong through CrossFit, whether adults or kids
Look for Kevin in our morning classes (lots of personal attention with smaller class sizes recently) and in the evenings
Kevin will also be assisting us providing more value to our clients. Ask him about setting up additional private training sessions to break through on a skill or lift. More on private training >>
No-Sweat Intro Sessions - We get it, CrossFit can be intimidating. We have transitioned our introduction process to a 30-minute no-sweat intro where we walk people through the basics of the gym, a few sample movements, answer questions they may have and follow up with a specific package to make them successful. The above picture shows some recent new athletes. Know someone who you'd love to introduce to CrossFit? Send them here >>
