CrossFit Sweat Shop

I can’t say enough good things about CrossFit Sweat Shop, the owner Nabil, coach Helen, and all the coaches and members. I joined about a year ago as someone who did not strength train and had very limited gym experience. Nabil and Helen spent time getting to know me and my goals and have helped to make me more confident in my own abilities. I was very nervous when I started taking classes, but quickly realized that every workout can be customized to fit one’s needs. The coaches are very supportive and give everyone attention during class. Also, all of the members are welcoming and ready to cheer you on. I think I would’ve started exercising a long time ago if I knew a place like this existed. You will not regret giving CrossFit Sweat Shop a try!

I joined CrossFit Sweatshop two years ago, and what stood out to me immediately was the atmosphere. CrossFit can feel intimidating from the outside, especially when you’re surrounded by incredibly strong and experienced athletes, but Sweatshop somehow manages to be both challenging and deeply welcoming. I’ve never felt judged or looked down on—only encouraged, inspired, and supported. The coaches and members have a way of pushing you to grow while also making you feel like you belong. I’ve learned so much here, not just from the coaching but also from the kindness and helpful tips of the people around me. I had to step away during pregnancy and postpartum after experiencing infant loss. Coming back felt vulnerable—I wasn’t sure what to expect or how long it would take to rebuild my strength. But after just three months back, I’m already lifting heavier than I ever did before, even before having kids. More than that, as a busy homeschooling mom of three, having an hour a few times a week to simply care for my body has been such a gift and has been incredibly beneficial for my mental and physical health. CrossFit Sweatshop has been more than a gym for me—it’s been a place of challenge, encouragement, and support through different seasons of life, and I’m so grateful I found it.

Honestly one of the best decisions I could have made. Post-pandemic, I was looking for a place to workout in a positive community. Two years later, these people are some of my closest friends. They push you to be better but are so encouraging and knowledgeable every step of the way. The coaches meet everyone where they are - from novice to CrossFit games athletes, everyone is celebrated here. I’ve never been this strong and have never had so much fun doing it. If you’re looking for a place with great athletes, great workouts, and even better people, you can’t miss this place.
