When I had my first trial class at Primal around June 2022, I was honestly quite intimidated because coming from a background of intensely training in ballet for 20+ years, it was a completely new world for me to try CrossFit. I knew right away it was the best decision I had made since moving here from the United States!
After completing the Newborn Primate Program (the beginners course at that time) and consistently coming to classes 4-5 x a week, I started to fall in love with the varied programming of CrossFit, but also with the community feeling and support system from all the coaches and members at Primal.
I decided to take my training to the next level beginning with personal training with coach Joris in the summer of 2024, and that was the second best decision I have made in the last 3 years!
We started with a conversation about what my goals were, and from there he made a personalized program for me. I knew this would be a slow, but steady process to achieve my goals, and he has been there supporting and encouraging me every step of the way.
He is extremely knowledgeable with the “why-” and “how to do it” behind the technique of each movement, and he has been so helpful with my internal motivation to turn small progressions into large achievements!
I can highly recommend personal training with Joris for anyone who has doubts about if it is something for them, and I can’t wait to see what I can achieve with his guidance in the future.
