Only 2 spots left in the Basics Class that starts next week Wednesday!

Starting on Wednesday, November 2, 2016, at 7:00pm we are introducing the CrossFit 808 Basics Class led by Coach Joshua Akiona! Our Basics Class is for individuals who are interested in joining the gym with no prior CrossFit experience. This class is focussed on not only teaching the basic movements seen in CrossFit, but also making sure athletes are executing movements efficiently. This class is the stepping stone for our Elements Program. 

The Elements Program is still required for participation in our regular group classes; however, because of the lengthy wait list, the Basics Class will allow interested athletes to get into the gym and moving sooner. As an Elements Program spot becomes available, we will offer it to those in the Basics Class first.

The cost is $100 per month and the Basics Class will be capped at 10 athletes (WE ONLY HAVE 2 SPOTS LEFT). Please email info@808crossfit.com if you are interested in joining the Basics Class.
