CONNECTION: Connection Matters! We believe building a relationship with your coach and classmates is equally as important as learning form and technique. Being surrounded by hard-working and like-minded people is the key to success.
EAT. SLEEP. THINK: It isn't just the hour in the gym that will get you a healthy and fulfilled life. We know that what we do outside of the gym matters. We coach and challenge our members to eat, sleep, and think in a healthy way.
TRAIN: It is our goal to make your time at CFDL the best hour of your day. Leave your phone in the car, and don't think about work emails, or outside responsibilities. This is your time. Have fun and get fit with friends.
...When I discovered CrossFit, it changed my whole perspective on fitness. Now I am a CrossFitter and my passion is to share CrossFit with everyone. If fitness is something that you are interested in, I would love to share what I know..."
