Brian1This is an older picture of Brian, but I thought it was fitting for today’s effort.  You can only compare your effort to your abilities.  When your laying in a puddle, your laying in a puddle.

Which is worse,?  The pain of using a muscle snatch instead of a power snatch or the joy of not lifting your hips and getting your shins out of the way?

Alternative Athletics Introduces Kids Classes!

You asked for ‘em, you got ‘em.

First, we need an idea of who is interested, and what times of day would be best for the classes. Please read through the following information, then post your input to the comments.

How much? We are going to do the kids classes with a punch card system, in order to accommodate family vacations, sports camps, and other things that make summer schedules a challenge.  We will have 3 different punch cards available.

5 classes for $25, 10 classes for $40, and 20 classes for $70. 

When? We need to have those interested give us input about the times for the classes.  Depending on demand, we will have one or two classes that run 2 or 3 times per week.  The times we have available are weekdays at 10am, 11am, 2:30pm, or 3:30pm.  We were not planning to do a kids class on Saturdays unless we get a lot of demand for one. 

We need to have at least 5 kids signed up to make a class, so the first time slot to have 5 kids signed up will be the first kids class we schedule.  We will cap a class at 10 kids.  We are thinking about splitting up the ages into separate classes, like 10-13 and 14-17, but we will see about that when we see who all we have interested.

So, please tell us if you have or know any kids that are interested, how old they are, and what days and time would be best for you, and we will get the kids classes started!

Hey guys, this is our new website with spooky media here in town.  Let us know what you think about the new site lay out in the comments feature!!!  If your comment does not show up right away, we are probably training someone and have not had a chance to moderate.  Please be patient with us as we figure this out.
