Coach David hopes you’re having a great Crush Week!
Introducing: RSVP to CFSBK
Starting on Monday, January 19, CFSBK will require our members to preregister online before coming to CrossFit group classes, Active Recovery, Pilates, and Yoga for Athletes. While we’re not actually capping classes, registration allows you to know how many people have signed up for the class you plan to attend, which will add another level of transparency to your membership. You may decide to modify your class selection based on your class-size preferences. We hope this will more evenly distribute attendance, help us plan ahead for larger classes, and inform our consideration for which classes to add when our new space opens.
Exciting side note: You can now attend Pilates class on Tuesdays at 7:30pm or Yoga for Athletes class on Saturdays at 10am using your CrossFit membership! (Each class is capped at 12 participants)
You are required to participate. The process only takes a couple minutes, so start now:
Steps to RSVP to CFSBK:
1. Go to the CFSBK Online Store.
2. Log In. (Save your log-in information to your cookies if you want to skip this step moving forward.)
3. Click “Calendar” from the left-hand column.
4. Select the class you plan on attending.
5. Press the blue “Reserve” button on the right-hand side of the screen.
You can do this on your computer or phone. The attendance display on your computer shows how many people out of 50 have signed up and will be displayed as such: (e.g., 10/50) while the mobile version shows how many are left based on a hypothetical 50 members. So 40 would mean 10 people have pre-registered.
RSVP to the Following Classes:
CrossFit Group Classes (including Open gym)
Active Recovery
Pilates with KH
Yoga for Athletes with Coach Whitney
DO NOT RSVP to:
Strength Cycle with Coach Jeremy
Olympic Weightlifting with Coach Frank
Personal Training
Details:
+ When you get to the gym, you’ll still need to swipe in as usual.
+ If you can’t make it to a class you signed up for, please cancel as soon as you know you can’t make it. If you don’t cancel within one hour of class, the system will think you attended and you’ll need to ask Front Desk to uncheck you from class.
+ Classes can be reserved as early as three days in advance and as late as an hour before. If you forget toRSVP, you can still come to class, but please be aware that our aim is for 100% participation. If you fail to participate, we will notice, we will be bummed, you will be bummed about being hassled, and you may incur a “Karen” penalty. Don’t be that person.
+ Do not RSVP if you’re using a banked class. Discuss it with the Front Desk as normal.
Seeking: Volunteers for Free Class Next Friday at 3:30pm
Next Friday (1/23), Coach David will be offering a free class to CFSBK members of all abilities and sizes. The class will include standardized warm-ups, bench pressing, deadlifting, and a WOD. The class is free, but there will be a videographer (fellow CFSBKer Nate P.!) filming, and the footage will be used on Coach David’s blog Inside the Affiliate. If you’re interested, sign up by emailing David [at] CrossFitSouthBrooklyn.com. The class is capped at 16 participants.
