Mia has been in CrossFit Kids for about 1 year. She has quickly advanced through our Jr. Athlete program and is one of the first that signed up for unlimited Kids classes! She always shows up to the gym with a smile on her face ready to work hard. Keep up the great work, Mia!
Tell us about yourself:
I’m 10 years old and in 4th grade. I like listening to Queen and I LOVE BeachSide CrossFit.M y sister is very, very energetic and my brother is smart. They both come to CrossFit kids, too. I’m in the middle.
What is your favorite subject in school? Why?
I like Math because my teacher pays us when we do well. We have class auctions where you can bid on a prize. I always get paid for Math.
Tell us something people might not know about you:
I collect stickers. I keep them in a Ziploc bag right now, but someday I will put them all over my door. My favorite sticker is Vans “Off the Wall” because I have so many Vans.
What brought you to CrossFit in the first place?
My mom didn’t really like the other sports we were in, so she found CrossFit last summer. Me and my brother and sister tried it out and we all liked it.
What was your first impression? How has that changed?
When I walked in the first time, I wasn’t sure about it, I am a little shy. But I saw how everyone was so committed and hard working, and I wanted to do that. Now I’ve made a lot of new friends and learned new techniques and good form. I’m excited because I’ve moved up from working with a PVC to a barbell. My strength has really increased a lot.
What skill are you working on right now?
Cleans, trying to make contact. I like cleans.
What’s your favorite Beachside CrossFit Kids memory?
When I used a barbell for the first time
