Kat did amazing today! Her attention to each athlete during the WOD is great! I love taking class with her! The only suggestion I have is when we have a drop in, maybe introduce them to the whole group during the brief. Yesterday we had 2 drop ins and it wasn’t until the warm up, so it felt a little awkward in the beginning. But all is good :) this is a very minor critique/suggestion.

Megan led an excellent class! Great instruction and coaching for all the athletes with emphasis on good form, encouragement during the wod, and helped make the experience of dying by deadlifting with shoulder to overhead and double unders as pleasant as one could wish for!

My partner and I did a drop in today for Amy's 10:00am class and Amy was superb! She was friendly and welcoming from the very first moment of us arriving which made us both feel at home. Amy did an excellent job of coaching the class and was friendly and professional throughout. I wouldn't have any hesitation in recommending CrossFit Lead, or Coach Amy, to anyone and my partner and I intend to be returning next year when we come back out this way. Thanks for making us feel so welcome! (Also big shout out to 'Flo' who was wonderful company and smashed the workout :) ) Cheers, Dave

Kat is a wonderful coach! She keeps our large class on task and moving in a timely manner. She takes the time to help improve everyone’s proper form no matter what the movement is. I like the little analogies she uses to explain the small details that matter(I.E. tuck your shoulder blades in your back pocket) such as when performing Olympic lifts from the floor.

Class was great.. Amy is really helpful on the Olympic lifts and I felt encouraged to challenge myself. I was not looking forward to all of the wallballs but very glad I went.

Kat is an excellent coach. She’s knowledgeable and attentive, encouraging and professional, she always prepares for class. She knows my limitations and is ready with scaling suggestions. Today’s tough hero wod ended up being a nice surprise for me due to Kat’s coaching skills. She helped me get rope climbs again! We all enjoy her classes. 💪🏻

Great workout for me. I needed a workout I could grind out without thinking and this did it! Kat pushed and encouraged me throughout and that matters! I think all of 4pm would agree when I say Fun Day!!

We have been at Lead CrossFit since its inception. We are thankful to Brent and Leslie, the owners for creating such a perfect gym for us. John and I are in our seventies, but because of the superb coaching, we don’t see an end to being able to participate in CrossFit. The coaches communicate, and provide individualized instruction. They all know us well, and are able to scale the workouts to fit our abilities. We have made many good friends at the gym, and appreciate the welcoming family atmosphere. Flo and John

Katherine was great ! I haven’t been at the gym this summer and without me telling her she knew to talk about scaling work outs . Made it seem less scary coming back . Thank you Katherine !

The coach today was Brent. He did a great job demonstrating everything. He explained the workout and its intended focus. Brent checked in with everyone regarding their specific needs/modifications to complete the workout. He cheered and encouraged everyone by name. Great job!!!

Coach Carter did great today in class. The workout was fun and intense. Coach kept us engaged and motivated us to push through the workout. I was also concerned about my shoulder and I wanted to try wall walks with the workout. I talked to Coach Carter about it and she told me not to overdue it if It felt off, but she still encouraged me to try the wall walks. She also gave me an alternative exercise if my shoulder was giving me issues. She is very observant of all the Lead member’s form during the exercise and helped out where she could. Overall, it was a great experience and a killer workout!

Kat is great. She always explains everything thoroughly with demonstrations when applicable. She is approachable with questions and concerns. She does a great job cheering us on during the workout and giving time updates and form checks throughout.

Kat did great. She did a nice job of setting expectations for the workout, explaining how much time each segment would take. She also encouraged us to push it and for everyone to try to run the whole distance of the workout, which I appreciated. I went a little slower than I thought I would be able to, owing to bad muscle fatigue from a workout two days ago, so my heart rate kind of spiked during the workout, but I never felt too much pressure from Kat to push it more than I was able to, and I think that’s a good approach for most of the clientele at our gym. But I also think a little bit of challenge, like asking everyone to do the whole distance, was also needed as I mentioned above. Overall, Kat is encouraging and willing to challenge us, which is a great combination. I also really appreciated some of her form tips which she gave during a workout last week. I’ve been doing CrossFit a long time, but I always have more to learn and I know I have bad form on some movements, so instruction is always really appreciated.
