Did my first crossfit workout at Hatchet. I was a bit nervous and intimidated about how it would go. When I first arrived I felt really welcomed and Mitch was amazing at helping me as a beginner. The class was a lot of fun and challenging. Mitch did a great job at the beginning walking us through the workout that day and helping demonstrate different lifts and technique. Amazing experience and I will definitely be going back.
