It's been a little over a month since I started attending CrossFit Big Dane, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. The people, the workouts, the coach -- they are all fantastic.
I joined CFBD because I am pretty out of shape (my brother quipped that I should start a fitness blog called 'CrossFat'), but I was pretty anxious during my first several sessions, worrying that I would feel like a total outsider. On the contrary, everyone is incredibly welcoming, with the coach/owner leading by example. He has a background in education/coaching, and it's very apparent. He is patient with newbies learning the movements, and encouraging with veterans looking for little tweaks to improve their lifts.
I couldn't more highly recommend CFBD and its community.
