If you (or someone you know) are intimidated by joining one of our regularly scheduled workouts; are looking to learn efficient technique; or want to build up more endurance first, try out our two new offerings this fall!

The goal of these classes are building the technique (Beginning class) and then building the endurance (Intermediate class) to transition into regular masters workouts.

Both of these programs run once a week, in 7 week sessions and require pre-registration with the city of Longmont and a specific fee.

There are limited spaces available for each session so get that registration in!
