Start with a class on us.
Your first class with us is free. You'll train the same session as everyone else, scaled to where you are, with a coach alongside you the whole way. Choose any time on the schedule and reserve your place.
The Stable in Edgewater, Maryland offers a free first class to anyone who has not trained with us before. Sessions are reserved in advance through Wodify and a card is required to hold the place, though it is not charged for the first class. Before you attend you will receive an email covering your training background and any current or prior injuries, so your coach has what they need before you arrive.
What to expect
- Book your placeReserve through Wodify. A card holds the spot, the same as any class. We can't take you without a booking.
- Complete the intake emailWe'll email you beforehand about your training background and any current or prior injuries. Your coach reads it before the session.
- Arrive five minutes earlyOne of our coaches will greet you, show you the floor and introduce you to the class. We run classes back to back, so five minutes is what the gap allows.
- Train the classStrength first, then conditioning. We scale every movement to where you are, and your coach stays with you through the hour.
- Talk it throughAfterward your coach sits down with you to answer questions and go through the membership options. We do that with every person who trains here.
Come prepared
- Athletic shoesTrainers you can move, lift and run in. Specialist lifting shoes are not needed.
- Clothing you can train inAnything you would wear to run or lift. Nothing specific is required.
- A water bottleWe have water fountains on site for refills, and we stock drinks and snacks for purchase.
Worth saying plainly
- You don't need a base level of fitnessEvery movement in every class scales. Our members range from people training for the first time in years to competitive athletes, all in the same session.
- You don't need to know the movementsWe teach the lift before any load goes on. That section of the class exists for exactly this.
- You won't be the only new personNew members join us every week. The group is used to it, and they'll introduce themselves before the warm-up is over.
Before you book
Which class should I choose?
Any of them. Every session is the same programming scaled to the people in the room, so we don't run a separate beginner class you'd have to wait for. Choose the time that works for your day.
Why is a card required if the class is free?
It holds the reservation, the same as it would for any class. We don't charge it for your first session.
Can I attend without booking?
No. We reserve every session in advance through Wodify, open gym included, and booking opens 72 hours ahead.
Do I need to complete any paperwork?
A standard liability waiver before you train, and the intake email beforehand. Neither one commits you to a membership.
What happens after the class?
Your coach will talk you through how the session went and which membership suits what you're trying to do. We have that conversation with everyone who trains here.
My child is interested. Is this the right class?
Our Youth Performance Program covers ages 11 to 16 and runs its own sessions at 4:35pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Call us rather than booking an adult class.
