782 Express
This December we will be trialing a new class in Stratford. “782 Express” will incorporate elements of CrossFit and high intensity interval training (HIIT), but without the use of barbells and higher skill gymnastics. Suitable for all fitness levels, this class will benefit those looking to improve their anaerobic and aerobic conditioning with only a 45-minute time commitment! Express will be open to all 782 members and those interested in becoming members (no fundamentals required). Member feedback throughout this period is much appreciated to guide a full launch of this class in early 2025.

Class Time: Tuesdays & Thursdays 12:15pm-1:00pm
Start Date: Tuesday, December 3rd, 2024
