Another fun teaching and learning weekend in the books!
I just love doing Level 1 and getting to work with folks for all areas who are looking to increase their knowledge in the gym.
Everyone was engaged throughout the weekend, even when it got a little toasty, but at least it helped with getting warmed up! 😅
I really enjoyed watching and listening to how folks were coaching each other on the movements on Day 2. They're ready!
And, we may even see some of these folks lifting or coaching at our upcoming Championships in October!
Thank you to for providing a solid facility to teach out of!
Congratulations and all the best to our newly certified coaches! Hope to see you all soon!
