There’s a whole heap of awesome stuff happening CrossFitters, and we’re damn pleased to be in amongst it! Mark these on your CrossFit calendar:

  1. In less than 2 weeks we’re hosting CrossFit Olympic Lifting Coach Mike Burgener, in New Zealand’s first CrossFit Certification seminar.
  2. Our November membership promotion is on! Lots of prizes to be won…
  3. On the 5th of December we’ve got our CFAK Games and Christmas Party – everyone’s invited! Anyone can enter the Individual or Team events. Even if you’re not CrossFit (yet!). And we want everyone to come to the Christmas Party afterwards!
  4. Our CrossFit Gymnastics Certification is starting to get filled up too. Better get in quick people, you don’t want to miss out!
  5. New Zealand’s first CrossFit Level I Certification is coming to CFAK in April 2010. The registration page for this will go live soon. Those of you interested, we suggest you start saving your pennies…

Since CFNZ opened the first affiliate in early 2008 (humbly CFAK were the 2nd to affiliate), we have grown in number. There are now 7 CrossFit affiliates in New Zealand, with another 3 opening soon. If you haven’t already, check out their websites in our Links section. Keep spreading the love people :)
