Our Goal is for CrossFit to give a sense of belonging, and allows us to put our differences aside and work towards a common goal, lifelong fitness.  These goals can be set for weeks, months, or even years. It takes time, but that’s what the meaning of community is all about. Helping each other and working towards the common goals together. The goals can be personal, or even one set for a team or group of people.  

 

We are a collection of teachers at C.C. Erwin Middle School in Salisbury, NC.  We would like to bring CrossFit into our school for students and staff members to learn and execute the importance of lifelong fitness.  Long term, we are working towards bringing CrossFit to our School District as a whole. We would like to see CrossFit introduced and taught at the Elementary School level and then follow that child through High School as an option.  

 

Seeing the overall health improvement in our community will come from educating students and staff about values and benefits of CrossFit.  Of course, the physical benefits will be unfolded as you move forward in your CrossFit journey.  There are also mental benefits:  Boosting confidence, self esteem, sense of belonging, and family. It's what draws us to CrossFit.

 

 

The last person finishing is the just as important as the first.
