Gravity Kids are working on alot of different movements at the moment. We are seeing some great PR's on Deadlift as well as kids spending more time outside running.

Our Superstar Sydney is focussing on her Track and Field Team and is doing a fantastic job - we are all very proud of her.

Kids, make sure you let your trainer know if you want to improve, or work on a particular lift, let's focus on getting your technique to a higher level.

TRIATHALON - Don't forget the Issaquah Tri is on the first weekend in June - please let us know if you are planning on signing up.

You kids are all awesome and Ceci and I are so happy to work with all of you - you are Strong Kids!
