What is the Invitational?

The Invitational is a series of 5 weekly workouts paired with social events.

The 5 different Invitational event workouts start on Friday, March 7th and run for the following 5 weekends, ending on Monday, April 7th. The event workouts are crafted in secret by Coach Hannah W and are then revealed on Thursday evenings at 5 pm. The workouts will include movements that we are currently focusing on as a gym. Expect a diverse range of movements and formats.

All the Invitational workouts feel like social events. We connect with each other through sharing a challenge. We also host Friday Night Lights events where everyone comes out and cheers each other on while doing the workout. Enjoy themes, team challenges, costumes and specially curated after parties. We make it all feel pretty special.

How Does It Work?

All Solcana members are encouraged to participate in all the events. We also want everyone to officially register to engage with teams, prizes and sharing scores, but all that is optional.

You can tackle the workouts during all the Group Fitness classes on Fridays and Saturdays, as well as during Open Gym times on Sundays and Mondays. We also host Friday Night Lights events from 4:30-7 PM each Friday.

Workout scores will be entered by coaches during classes and Friday Night Lights and can be entered directly into Wodify if you do the workout during any of the open gym times. You can also ask any coach to help you with this at any time.

What’s Up With Teams?

Joining a team won't control when, how or if you do the workouts, and your workout results won't impact your team. Teams are about making new friends and inspiring each other. We offer some fun team competitions like best team name and most creative team attire. It's all about having a good time and building relationships. During sign-up, you get to choose if you want to be part of a team. Regardless of your choice, you have full freedom over your participation in the Invitational workouts.

This year we are introducing Affinity Teams. If you are an athlete who regularly participates in Masters, Trans Strength or Fat Fitness, you have the option to choose to be on a team with others in your affinity group. You can also choose not to and engage with more athletes outside of that group. It is all up to you. We want everyone to have the support and options that help them feel comfortable

Do I Have To Register?

No, but please do! Even if you don't plan to do a single workout, registering opens doors to community building, team participation, and the chance to win exciting prizes. Newer athletes are especially encouraged to join for a chance to form lifelong connections with teammates and engage more deeply with the Solcana community. That said, you can unofficially participate in all the events without registering and still take what you want from those experiences. 

Scaling Options:

You will be able to choose from 4 pre-made categories or the Play category. The pre-made categories will have set options that means everyone who chooses that category will try to meet the same standards of movement, weights, difficulty, etc. The Play category allows you to take any options and even add your own options to make the workout that feels best to you. There is no need to commit to one category – mix and match week to week! Here are the categories and some examples of options for each:
