Time to brag a little bit! This past weekend Coach RJ won first in her weight class at the 2018 USA Powerlifting South Regional. With this win RJ qualified for USAPL Nationals in Spokane, WA on October 10th. This comes on the heels of an intense 16 week strength cycle. A huge thank you to those of you who were able to attend on Saturday. Let’s continue to show her support as she represents EDCF on the national stage!

This Saturday we will be kicking off an 8 Week Handstand Course at 10am! The goal is to get those, regardless of skill level, more comfortable and competent with the handstand, handstand push-ups, and handstand walks. There will be homework and weekly progress tracking. Sound awesome? We think so! Find more details and a link to sign up HERE.
