We teach in two age groups: Kids (9-13 years) and Teens (13-17 years).
With the Kids, the emphasis is on fun, cooperation and self-confidence. For the Teens, the emphasis is on the Crossfit Fundamentals and Workouts. Crossfit Kids given by specifically trained trainers is safe and has no risks of developmental problems.
What do we do with the Kids (9-13yrs)?
With the Kids, the focus is on fun, cooperation and self-confidence. We use derived Crossfit movements such as the squat, pushing and pulling movements, lifting, moving, jumping and interval conditioning forms. This is often in game form. The emphasis is not on performance, but on improvement. Through play, children develop many skills and thus improve in strength, speed, coordination, condition and self-confidence.
What do we do at the Teens (13-17yrs)
Teenagers are physically fit to learn the Crossfit Fundamentals such as Gymnastics, Olympic Weightlifting and Interval Conditioning Training. This is built up in a responsible way because teenagers are still developing. By learning Crossfit Fundamentals and performing workouts, teens become faster, stronger and more confident.
My child is not (yet) very skilled in motor skills. Can he/she participate in the lesson?
Yes, of course. All children can participate. The exercises are adapted per child to his or her level. We perform many exercises side by side and yet we work in groups. Many children progress quickly when they participate in the lesson.
My child has performance anxiety or finds it very exciting to participate. Is Crossfit suitable?
Yes, of course. All children are taken care of by our experienced trainers and can immediately participate in the lesson. They will have positive experiences from the first lesson, which will increase their self-confidence.
At Crossfit Kids, children develop strength, speed, coordination and condition in a safe way. It is not a program aimed at becoming as strong as possible. Training takes place in a responsible manner and the trainers are trained to work safely with children.
At what age can my child join the Teens group?
Based on the physical and socio-emotional development, the age at which the child can join the Teens group is determined together with the child and parents. This will usually be around seventh grade.
My son/daughter is already on a sport. Is Crossfit suitable for doing this on the side?
Yes, of course. At Crossfit we develop strength, coordination, speed and fitness. This is an excellent foundation for any sport.

GRIPS - Tired of sore hands and/or torn blisters?
Grips are your best friend if you want to protect your hands and keep your grip strong longer during gymnastics movements in the bars and rings. No more painful or ripped hands = more consistent training, more reps and more progression!🔥
We now offer 3 types of high quality grips from WKsportsgear in our webshop:
➡️ No Chalk Ultra Sticky Grips – Currently super popular!💥 With these, you don’t need chalk at all. They’re perfect for rings and smoother bars, stick like glue, and protect your hands. Available in 3 fun colours, plus you get a free set of sweatbands with them.
➡️ Micro Fiber Grips – Perfect if you use our rough ‘Speal’ bars a lot. They give you solid protection while still keeping that close-to-the-bar feel.
➡️ Carbon Fiber Grips – Also great for our rough bars, offering a stronger grip and durability for high-volume training.
All grips are easy to order, delivered to your home, and by buying them in our webshop, you support our box 🙌
