Girls on Fire is a new, one of a kind program for girls ages 11-16 focused on helping participants improve their confidence, wellness, & relationships.

Confidence. Each session will include small group discussions focusing on individuals strengths and goals. Goal notebooks will be provided to each of the participants to utilize as they see fit during the program.

Wellness. Girls will complete a functional fitness style workout under the watchful eye of our coaching staff. Each workout will be tailored to the individual so participants of all fitness levels will get the most of each session. Girls will also spend a portion of their time learning the basics of nutrition and leave replenished with a healthy snack.

Relationships. Girls will be mentored by qualified coaches and will learn to communicate with one another and work together as a team to create solid habits and reach their goals.

Space is limited so reserve a spot for your daughter, niece, or friend today!

**Scholarship spots are available for this program. If you would like to help scholarship an athlete or if you would like to apply for a scholarship position, please contact us at info@fivealarmcrossfit.com.

It is with mixed emotions we announce Coach Garrett will be leaving Five Alarm to pursue a new adventure in a different state. While he hasn’t settled on his final destination, he’s excited for the change in scenery and the new challenges. Garrett has played an integral part in our team and our Five Alarm family over the last couple of years and will be greatly missed. And while we are sad to see him go, we know he’ll do great in this next chapter of his life.

As Garrett’s plans continue to unfold, we will update all of you. Stay tuned for his official last day (don’t worry, we still have a month or so with him) along with details for his going away party.

Good luck, Garrett!!

Get excited, Five Alarm! As of September 1, Five Alarm CrossFit becomes Five Alarm Fitness, NCFIT Partner!  Over the last five years, we have poured our hearts and souls into Five Alarm and we did not make this decision lightly. Our rebrand is a culmination of countless discussions regarding our vision, core values, and how we can continue to rise the tides for both our team and our athletes.   You might be asking who is NCFIT and why would we choose to partner with them. NCFIT was founded by Jason Khalipa 10 years ago as a single gym in Northern California. Since then, they’ve grown into a global organization with over 20 locations worldwide. The NCFIT team has worked hard at developing this partnership and is committed to helping all of their partner gyms raise the bar through business support, coach development, marketing, branding, and more.   What does all of this mean for you? Well, in a broad sense, nothing has changed. We will continue to provide great programming (spoiler alert, we’ve been utilizing NCFIT programming for awhile now), top notch coaching, and the best gym family in the area. We are the exact same gym we have always been. Our character and our people are what defines Five Alarm. Branding does not. Over the next few months, you will see new logos, an updated website, changes to some of our backend material, and more. We know the transition will take time and we appreciate your patience as we work through it.   Please note, despite the name change we are still currently a CrossFit gym! The decision of whether or not to reaffiliate is a big one and something we are still considering. Our partnership with NCFIT does not impact this decision in any way. We will continue to update you as we come to a conclusion, but for now, Five Alarm Fitness is still an official CrossFit gym.   The one constant in life is change. Unfortunately, that word often comes with a negative connotation, sometimes warranted. In this case, it’s not. In this case, it’s welcomed with clear minds, opened arms, and a bigger, brighter, and better future. A future we will build together.   More information and details will come soon enough. For now, just keep showing up, being you, and get excited about being a part of an exciting future at Five Alarm Fitness, NCFIT Partner.

This Monday is Memorial Day! While we may not be able to meet in person this year, we are excited to still perform our annual “MURPH” workout that day. Please join us at 9am on Zoom (our entire team will be there) for a virtual “MURPH” event. EJ Garneau has also offered up his house to anyone who might like to come do “MURPH” with others. If you are interested, please let us or EJ know so he has an idea of how many to expect. 

Our goal this year isn’t to PR our times but to honor the sacrifices made by others and our gym community. With that in mind, we want to help make this a great workout for all of you. In order to do that, we need your help! After reading this email, please send your designated Coach (or any Coach) the following information: 

1. Are you planning to do “MURPH” this year?
2. If yes, what equipment do you have access to & where will you be performing it? 
3. Do you have any injuries that currently prevent you from doing any movements? If so, what are they? 

Our Coaches will be emailing modifications to every single one of you who wants to participate based on the equipment you have and your current ability level. We will also be delivering sidewalk chalk to every member from Friday-Sunday of this week. You can use the chalk to keep track of your rounds and times but we’re also encouraging you to write encouraging notes to your fellow athletes or maybe draw something patriotic. Get creative, get your families involved and be sure to share your creations on social media (don’t forget to tag us @fivealarmcf).

In the meantime, please get those emails to your coaches! We’re looking forward to honoring LT. Michael Murphy this Monday at 9am. See you on the web!
