Monthly newsletter (short version) July 26
*addendum to Santos - Member of the month - the young blood (sorry for the app f*** up) Correct text:
Our youngest member (15 years old!) deserves the top spot
for June. Although he and his twin brother Simon initially started together,
the latter pursued other interests while Santos perservered and showed up
motivated and hungry to learn and progress alternating between CrossFit,
Endurance, Gymnastics and Hyrox classes. Inspiring to say the least If you bump into him, be sure to high-five and say hi to him!

●
Casual/chillax apéritif – 23 July
No big plans, our outside area is yours for the evening
(BBQ included). Bring a drink, a friend, yourself or be there in thought. Just
chillaxing together for those available.
●
Summer parc picnic – 8 August
For the (un)lucky few spending Summer holidays around
Brussels (at least you’ll have your favourite box/second home to welcome you,
rejoice!). Similarly to last year, we’ll pick a spot in one of the parcs in the
afternoon and send our location to meet-up for snacks, drinks and games ☺
●

News & updates
●
Summer
access for
limited members. As posted in our Whatsapp Community, we are allowing limited
members to experience specialty classes over the summer. Bookings work the same
as usual and with the same wait/amount of max bookings you can hold at any one
time
● We are thinking of adding new
classes and given the limited time slot options and the whole logistics behind
we’re opening up the floor to you, to get your views and maximise the options,
please vote in the poll here. Below options fyi:
o
Beginner’s / Basics class
o
Legends club (40+ only)
o
CrossFit kids
o
Ladies’s only pump sesh (lower
body/core/pelvis)
o
Pilates
o
Second Yoga class Sunday
afternoon
● And to follow-up on the last
newsletter and the whatsapp poll on the Core/Pelvic workshop, thanks for all
the votes and motivation . We have 40 potential interested ladies. The workshop
will take place on Saturday September 12th – 1.30 – 3.30pm (save the date)
with Certified coach Nica and her sister a specialised woman sports
physiotherapist. As the cost is quite consistent and we want to make sure we
have as little drop-out and last minute cancellation as possible, for unlimited
members there will be a 15€ deposit
to be paid upon registration to confirm your presence, you will be
reimbursed of the amount once the event takes place and you attend. For limited
members and voucher holders there will be a 10€ payment to be
made to confirm your attendance. You will be able to already book the session
on the app in ‘Seminars & Workshops’ as of August. Thanks for your
understanding
● A little side note on jump ropes.
You will have noticed the ropes at the box are starting to suffer and might not
be ideal for DU. These are really meant to be there/used for newcomers or
people that forget their ropes or don’t have one at the start of their CrossFit
journey… If you have been doing CrossFit for a little while… at this point it’s
almost criminal to not have your own jump rope :D Are you even taking this
seriously?? Of course we do not aim to sell the ones we get via Velites (even
though you get a discount and unless you are interested, in which case let us
know). Otherwise here are a few top brands with various price categories:
o
Catgrips
o
Rogue
o
Velites
● We are working on a little
project to make your member experience with WB feel even more special and give
you some real life perks in our beautiful city. More info to come soon. We are
also aiming to simplify our order system for our WB merch, partner merch and
food and beverage so you can go through a link and register your order directly
online. To be continued...
o
As a
follow-up, some of you will have seen the beautiful tote bags our team winners
received, they are available for order as well as our neat coffee camper cups.
We’ll launch an order at some point with another T-shirt round if demand is
there
● Please do not leave your
belongings lying around in the dressing rooms. Respect the space as if it were
your own space and respect others’ right to have a nice space too. Anything
left behind will be discarded every weekend. Thank you for your understanding!
● We are thinking of putting a
penalty block on bookings in place for those who do not put their equipment
back properly (whether Open Gym or class). Again please respect the space and
think of others coming after you. Imagine, if everyone leaves the space
cluttered/messy how it would look after just 1 or 2 days… Ditto! Thank you!
Reminders:
●
For
newcomers or if you missed it, link to our previous June NL ☺
●
Get
in touch for any Nutripure, Velites or other F&B/gear orders
●

updates, the member Forum and communicate with us directly. You will also
access the various specialty class groups and can request access to the *Open
Gym +

first sports massage booking with Nathalia Vredeveld, you
will NOT regret it! Once you try her, you will want to go back.

program, free registration fees for your friend, 1-month free for you ☺
