Possible to call external methods directly in WatchKit?

Setup: I have a custom WorkoutSessionManager class that does all the heavy lifting. It does not subclass WKInterfaceController. It only subclasses NSObject and its own WorkoutSessionManagerDelegate. I have a Dashboard class which subclasses WKInterfaceController.

Goal: My Dashboard class uses a WatchKit force touch menuItem which calls a local saveSession() function. That saveSession() function needs to call an external saveWorkout() function located in WorkoutSessionManager.

Attempts: I have tried various init methods to no avail.

Is it even possible to call external functions from WatchKit extensions?
