Hello CFBT-ers! With the New Year, and new gym we’ve got a few exciting changes going on! We will be starting classes at the new gym this week, launching a new website, adding Yoga, Boot Camp and Competition Training Classes. Below are some details on how this all will affect you. Thanks again for your patience during this transition, you guys have been the best!
New Gym – Pending today’s inspection, we plan to be hosting classes at the new gym starting Wednesday morning. The address is 2301 Second Ave Seattle, WA 98121. This is just 2 short blocks south of our current gym. We are on the corner of Second & Bell, next door to Wasabi Bistro. The gym will not be 100% ready, but we are working hard to get all the finishing touches done in the next month.
New Website – We are launching a new website in the coming days. You will still get to see the WOD’s before you come to class, but you will just have to find the Workout Of The Day Tab, and click on that to see the daily WOD. There will still be a link to class sign-ups on Mind Body Online. I think you will be able to create a website log-in to post comments. Stay tuned.
Yoga – Starting the week of January 18th we will be slowly adding more Yoga classes to the schedule. Kicking it off, we are so lucky to have Maura B heading up the Physio-Tune up class. If you guys have been enjoying the mobility work, this class is for you. Maura’s class will be heavily focused on alignment and repairing your body’s tweaks and imbalances to help improve your quality of life and overall performance in the gym. Her class will be Tuesday and Thursdays from 7:35pm-8:35pm. We will also be adding some other yoga classes (Flow) and general stretching; details are being finalized now.
If you are a Charter Member with an Unlimited Membership (you have a yellow M by your name in Mind Body Online) then your yoga classes are included in your membership (no upgrade required). You are all set and can start registering for yoga now!
If you are a regular Month-to-Month CFBT Member (you have a red M by your name in Mind Body Online) you have a few options, as our membership structure will be changing slightly.
Gold Membership (Unlimited CrossFit & Yoga) $210 per month (that is only $25 more per month!)
Silver Membership (Unlimited CrossFit) $185 per month (rate stays the same).
Bronze Membership (2x per week CrossFit) $140 per month (rate stays the same).
If you are a PIF (3 months paid in full) member, please contact me about your yoga options.
If you are happy with your current membership and might only do yoga 1x per month, you can always do the Yoga Drop in Rate for $20. This rate is open to non CFBT members as well.
PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A CHANGE TO YOUR MEMBERSHIP LEVEL.
Boot Camp – Kicking-off January 17th, 2011 will be the first CrossFit Belltown Boot Camp Series. This Boot Camp will run for eight weeks, ending on March 12th in perfect timing for the spring!
Class will meet Mon and Wed from 6pm-7pm and Saturday at 8:30am. The class will be fast paced, but scaleable focused on bodyweight movements, interval training, some medicine ball work, and dumbbells. If you have friends that are looking to get into high-intensity training but find CrossFit intimidating; this is the class for them to start with. Cost: $300 for the series. 24 total classes = $12 per class!
Competition Training Class- For those of you wanting to compete in Sections with hopes of doing individuals or team competition. This class will be focused on extra technique work, advanced skills (muscle-ups, HSPU, Snatches). Must be able to do most WOD’s as rx’d.
Early Bird Classes – I know a few of you are looking for early classes (6am YIKES). We are working VERY hard to make that available for you guys by February.
Vacation – We plan to set-up the gym, then skip town! We will be on a much needed vacation all of next week. You guys will be in the very capable hands of Stephen, Mark, Brandon and Joe.
We will be having a mandatory meeting for those of you interested in competing in the 2011 CrossFit season. The meeting is NEXT WEDNESDAY, December 15 at 7:30pm. How do you know if you are ready to compete? Come to this meeting and find out if this is something you are really interested in. What do you get out of competing? You get to push yourself harder then you ever thought you would, and you learn a ton about yourself while getting super fit! If you would like to attend please sign up online.
Next Wednesday we will be discussing the following:
*Commitment
*Competition Training Classes
*Addressing your weaknesses
*New Sectionals format
*Affiliate Team selection process (attitude/ coach-ability)
*Any questions you may have
Hope to see you there!
CFBT's 2010 Sectional participants!
Thursday night at 11pm a sprinkler head on the third floor broke and flooded the second, first and retail level of the building. We arrived to a flooded gym Friday morning. The McGuire cannot get to our space until Sunday (hopefully) to take care of the mess. Even if we try to clean up the mess ourselves, the water sunk between the mats and cement floor, so every-time you step on what seems to be a dry spot water oozes up and your feet are soaked. This is by no means a safe way to conduct a WOD. Also the residual leaks from above have not stopped. Any effort we put into cleaning it up at this point would be met by more water dripping down.
We apologize for the inconvenience and hope to get this resolved ASAP. Take this day to do that 5k run you keep blowing off!
Spend two full days with CrossFit Coach Mike Burgener OR one of his tier one coaches staff learning, studying and practicing the Olympic lifts. The Snatch and Clean and Jerk bring speed, power, coordination, agility, accuracy and balance to your strength training. These lifts are indispensable to CrossFit programming and expert coaching is a powerful advantage.

For those of you who have been wondering what this whole "CrossFit thing" is all about, come find out this Saturday at our CrossFit 101. We will do a short WOD (workout of the day), followed by a quick discussion about what CrossFit is, how and why it works.
There is no charge for this class; however all participants MUST register online prior to attending. NO EXCEPTIONS. This class is for non-members only, however current members are encouraged to listen to the lecture.
What: CrossFit 101 (complimentary)
Where: CrossFit Belltown
When: Saturday, November 13, 10:30am SHARP
Who: Those interested in finding out more about CrossFit
We are extremely excited to be opening our doors to the yoga world next Tuesday October 26th from 7:30pm-8:30pm, as part of a pilot program to compliment and help grow our existing class schedule. However space is limited, so the first four people to reply to comments will have a spot saved.
Our host: Jenniferlyn (‘JL’) Chiemengo
JL first experienced yoga in northern California in 2000 when she was looking for a way to escape the daily stress from her job as a TV news producer. In 2002, JL decided to move her career from the newsroom to the yoga mat. She began her training at Kripalu, the largest yoga center in North America. After completing more than 200 hours of training, JL became an immediate success in the yoga world – having evolved from renowned teachers as Shiva Rea, Seane Corn, Ana Forrest and Dharma Mittra; the most attuned and respected Yogi’s in the world.
JL is currently Director of Yoga at HauteyYoga in Queen Anne, teaches at YogaLife in Greenlake and holds the position of Alumni Ambassador with LuLulemon Athletica. Her most recent accomplishments: “Yoga & Chocolate,” “Live Music Yoga” and “Vino & Vinyasa”. JL truly embraces both the seriousness and playful side of yoga, in all its functional delight.
I know you guys have all been waiting patiently to find out when and where we will be moving! I'm happy to announce we signed the lease last week on our new location, 2301 2nd Ave right next door to Wasabi Bistro. We hope to be moving mid-November, and will keep you guys posted as the day gets closer. Our new gym will be larger and will allow us to expand and develop some additional classes. Stay tuned for new class times, additional intro classes, competition classes and yoga.
We plan to make this move as seamless as possible and appreciate your patience as we get the new gym up and running.
CrossFit Belltown is a proud new supporter of Thundering Hooves. And to show their appreciation, Thundering Hooves now has us listed as a drop-off point for all online meat deliveries. So now you can get your paleo fix -AND- a great workout… all under one roof! CrossFit Belltown rocks!
Thundering Hooves is a fourth generation family farm in the fertile Walla Walla Valley of Washington State. They raise and finish chickens, turkeys, cattle, goats, sheep, and pigs on certified organic pastures of grass and alfalfa. All their livestock are Pasture Ranged and Pasture Finished (no feedlots), leading to more contented animals and healthier meats. They do not use indiscriminate antibiotics or hormones to boost growth.
Thundering Hooves environmental philosophy is that Nature knows best. For thousands of years, multiple species of animals grazed unplowed fields of clovers and grasses. The sod held the moisture, the clovers added nitrogen for the grasses, the animals recycled the plants, and the microorganisms rejoiced! This was and is sustainable agriculture.
Delivery Schedule:
Deliveries are made on the last Saturday of every month at 8:15am. First delivery scheduled for 10/30/10.
Delivery Guidelines:
To place your oder visit Thundering Hooves, select what you want and list CrossFit Belltown as your pick up location.
