October 11th
The Power and Grace Movement Seminar is geared towards both coaches and
athletes of all levels. We want the take-away of this day to include not only proper
positioning for basic Crossfit movement in regards to skill work, but also how to teach
the progressions for those who train even the most beginner Crossfitters, and why it
is important to perform the skills this way. We will also cover how to identify broken
positions and address the correct way to achieve maximum efficiency.
