Why it works
What to Expect
The On Boarding class exists to remove the two things that stop people walking through the door: not knowing the movements, and not knowing what any of it means. You learn the squat, the press, the deadlift and the basic gymnastics positions in a setting where the only goal is doing them well, with no clock and no score.
It is optional. Plenty of members start straight into DSM Fitness and get scaled in the room, and that works fine. On Boarding is for the person who would rather build a base of confidence first, and it makes the first month of group classes feel a lot less like being thrown in the deep end.
The point is movement quality. Nothing is timed and nothing is ranked, so you can focus on doing it right.
Squat, press, deadlift and the foundational gymnastics positions, taught rather than assumed.
What the whiteboard means, how scaling works and how to read a session, so your first group class is not a translation exercise.
Take it if it helps. Skip it if you are ready. Either way a coach scales you in class.
