I love Santiam CrossFit! I joined in May of 2017 and I’ve loved it ever since! I can’t tell you how great it is to walk into a place and know there is no judgement. It doesn’t matter if you Scale or RX a workout, everyone is encouraging. I’m someone that doesn’t like to fail, so I tend to scale more then I should. The coaches are great about recognizing this and nudging me just a little to step outside of my comfort zone, even if it’s just 5 extra pounds or 2 more reps. On the flip side, they are great about making sure my form is correct before putting on too much weight, which I appreciate. Not only are the coaches great, so are the athletes. It’s amazing to see how we all cheer one another on during class. It’s humbling for sure!
I also love that I can bring my kids with me. I have 5 of them (nope that wasn’t a typo, I really do have 5!) and sometimes i need to bring them. Usually not all of them, but my husband and I have to divide and conquer some days. There have been multiple times where my youngest will get fussy and the coach or a fellow athlete will scoop him up. I have a few pictures of when one of my girls was younger, and she’d just be hanging out in one of those hiking packs on the coaches back. It’s truly amazing to see how everyone loves and treats my kids as if they were theirs.
