Foundations: Start with Confidence

Our Foundations program is designed for anyone new to CrossFit—or anyone who wants more support before stepping into group classes.

Instead of a group course, Foundations is now delivered through 1:1 private coaching, giving you the time, attention, and individualized guidance to build a strong, confident starting point.

What to Expect

In your private Foundations sessions, we’ll meet you exactly where you are and guide you through:

  • The foundational movements of CrossFit—squat, hinge, push, pull, and more
  • Core barbell lifts like the deadlift, front squat, and press
  • Gym terminology and how classes flow (yes, we’ll cover things like AMRAP 😊)
  • Proper movement mechanics to keep you safe and progressing
  • Scalable options so you know how to adjust workouts to your level

Each session includes coaching, practice, and just enough intensity to help you feel what training at Fortitude is like—without being overwhelming.

Why Private Foundations?

Starting something new can feel intimidating. This approach removes that barrier.

With 1:1 coaching, you get:

  • Personalized instruction tailored to your experience, mobility, and goals
  • Real-time feedback to build confidence in your movement
  • A pace that fits you—no rushing, no pressure
  • A clear path forward into group classes or continued private coaching

We focus on Mechanics → Consistency → Intensity, so you’re not just getting through workouts—you’re learning how to move well for life.

Your Next Step

Once you’ve built a solid foundation, we’ll help you decide the best path forward:

  • Transition into group CrossFit classes
  • Continue with private coaching for more specific goals
  • Or combine both for the best of both worlds

Conveniently located off HWY 24, next to Eddyline Brewery & the Buena Vista Public Library.

Working out at the gym isn't easy, but getting there shouldn't be hard. Fortitude Fitness is located one block from the Main Street stop light.

It is often the small steps, not the giant leaps, that bring about the most lasting change.
