Want to engage in healthy activities but don’t really enjoy or know much about exercising? Want to resolve metabolic syndrome? Want to say good-bye to chronic or recent physical issues? Want to widen your circle of friends? Challenge and inspire yourself to start a new chapter in your life!
Crossfit is unique because it breaks down fundamental movements into 10 categories and evenly engages in each training category.
Crossfit training is based on movements we use frequently in everyday life.
Many associate Crossfit with people who want to get muscular. At Crossfit Kyoto, rather than focusing on getting ripped, we know that everyone has a different ideal of fitness and we focus on supporting health for each individual.
*These reflect concepts adopted by Crossfit Kyoto.
Crossfit does not focus on strengthening just one area of exercise performance.
With training that covers 10 fitness domains, you can make balanced improvements, both in daily life and in sports performance.
In our semi-private/personal training, every movement is adjusted to the individual.
Enjoyable for both athletes and for people with no experience in exercising.
From kids to the elderly, coaches adjust movements and intensity based on individual fitness level, age, etc. You can make performance improvements, both in daily life and in sports. Various languages and ages provide a fun atmosphere for all, regardless of physical ability.
People of varying strength can participate in the same class by having different weights and enjoy the workout together.
The box is used in many CrossFit movements. For people who are injured or who cannot (yet 🙂 ) jump, our coaches will adjust the box to a different height or offer a simpler movement.
High-quality coaches adjust the program based on individual strength level, age, exercise history, disability, injury, etc.
We help you improve cardiovascular function, flexibility, accuracy, strength, balance, speed, stamina, and more.
The body reacts strongly and positively to unfamiliar stimulation.
CrossFit incorporates non-routine movements to stimulate the muscles. This promotes effective cell stimulation and enables improvements in a short amount of time.
