Why Choose Sand & Steel?
THE LEVEL OF CARE
We can sum up what most separates us from other gym in two word: WE CARE. We don’t coach because we have to, we coach because fitness has changed our lives and we want to help change yours.
THE PROFESSIONAL COACH
Dawn and Paul have been coaching and training in the CrossFit methodology for over 12 years. We have over 50 certifications covering everything from mobility training, to running, to CrossFit. We’ve trained over thousands of people with various goals and assisted in the professional development over 200 personal trainers and CrossFit coaches.
THE DIFFERENCE
We cannot overstate the difference between training in the CrossFit methodology and training correctly in the CrossFit methodology. If you have tried CrossFit before at a regular gym, in your garage, or at a military base, you are missing 90% of the results you could be getting. Your time and health are precious. You owe it to yourself to hire the best coach you can find. You owe it to yourself to try Sand & Steel.
PERSONAL TRAINING
Personal Training is the sine qua non for improving your fitness, strength, and conditioning. Whether your goals are weight loss, building muscle, or simply being healthier, there is no better training methodology than personal training. Personal Training maximizes efficiency and safety and is customized around your other training goals.
OUR CROSSFIT PROGRAM
CrossFit is the Best Hour of your Day. CrossFit workouts emphasize strength training, coordination, and conditioning workouts in scalable format that is exciting, challenging, and approachable to everyone. New members come CrossFit classes to improve their fitness and health, but they stay because they develop life-long friendships and a passion for challenging themselves. CrossFit classes feature constantly varied, functional strength training that incorporate weight lifting, calisthenics (gymnastics), and cardio exercises (running, rowing, jump rope, etc.)
Look Better, Feel Better, and Get in the Best Shape of your Life
What you can do on your own in 12 hours, we can do for you in 3 hours. When you work with us, you have the advantage of the 20,000 hours of coaching experience that Dawn and I share. As a team, we have trained more than 5,000 clients and certified over 200 coaches. We have trained many clients who move just like you. We have worked with people with your injuries and your goals. We know what works, what’s safe, and what will get you results. At Sand and Steel, we handle the planning, the programming, the accessory work, mobility training, etc. We do it all. Just show up and give us 100%.
