You Can't Feel Community From a Clipboard

This article is part of the CrossFit BC journal, written by the coaching staff who run our classes in Olympic Village, Vancouver. We publish what we teach on the floor: training decisions, recovery, nutrition, and the honest tradeoffs behind them.

Common questions

Do I need to be fit before trying CrossFit BC?

No. That is exactly what coaching is for. Every workout can be modified to your current fitness level, experience and comfort. You start where you are.

What if I have never done CrossFit before?

Perfect. Most people start with no CrossFit experience. Our coaches will walk you through every movement, scale anything that needs scaling and keep you safe while you learn the rhythm.

Why do you offer three free classes instead of just one consultation?

Because one class is a snapshot and three classes are a pattern. You get to feel different coaches, different workouts and how your body responds across a week, which is the only honest way to decide if a gym is your fit.
