True Spirit CrossFit^® & Yoga

Fantastic experience: I am thrilled to have the opportunity to share my experience with Coach Leslie, a truly remarkable individual who has made a significant impact on my CrossFit journey. Her coaching abilities, attention to detail, and dedication to fostering a warm and supportive community have exceeded all expectations. From the very first session, it was clear that Coach Leslie possesses a deep understanding of the intricacies of CrossFit. Her keen eye for detail allows her to pay close attention to participants' forms, ensuring proper technique and minimizing the risk of injury. She is not only adept at providing constructive feedback but also excels at explaining the specific benefits and purposes behind each movement. Her ability to break down complex exercises into understandable components has been instrumental in my progress. I appreciate her commitment to ensuring that every participant performs movements with precision and safety. Beyond her coaching expertise, Coach Leslie has created a welcoming and caring community within the CrossFit gym. Her genuine interest in each individual's well-being and progress is evident in the personalized attention she provides. She takes the time to get to know her participants, building solid relationships and fostering a sense of camaraderie among everyone involved. This inclusive and friendly environment bolsters motivation, making every session enjoyable. The community that Leslie has cultivated is genuinely exceptional and sets the stage for a supportive and encouraging atmosphere where everyone feels valued. I cannot recommend Coach Leslie highly enough. Her passion for CrossFit and exceptional coaching skills make her an invaluable asset to anyone looking to embark on a fitness journey or take their training to the next level. Her ability to guide and educate participants on proper form and technique ensures a safe and effective workout. Moreover, her dedication to creating a warm and caring community fosters a rare sense of belonging and encouragement. If you seek a coach who genuinely cares about your progress, pays attention to detail, and fosters a welcoming environment, look no further than Coach Leslie. Her expertise, personalized guidance, and commitment to building a solid community will elevate your CrossFit experience. Embrace the opportunity to train under her guidance and unlock your full potential in a supportive and empowering environment.

Fantastic experience: I can’t tell you how much I love this gym! If you’re looking for a CF gym that works with you individually, cares about your progress, creates a warm, uplifting, powerful community, then this place is it! I haven’t experienced good coaching in years! Leslie is a phenomenal owner! She cares about her members progress and makes sure that her members are reaching their goals. James and Kendra are exceptional coaches! They thoroughly coach each class and makes sure that everyone within each class is reaching their own potential, which entails them to examine each member. That requires them to take time to evaluate each person’s potential, their growths/declines, injuries, chronic issues and so forth. And a coach is responsible for motivating members, which they do eminently well. On top of that, about every quarter the coaches check in with you free of charge to see how members can improve, what members have been doing, what they as an establishment can improve and so forth. I feel so blessed to have found this place! Being a double minority in a predominately Caucasian area can be very intimidating but when I found this place, I felt a sense of belongingness and a positive, uplifting space. I couldn’t ask for anything more!

Fantastic experience: Knowledgeable, helpful staff, and a positive community.

Fantastic experience: This is the friendliest gym I’ve ever been to! Leslie and her coaches are extremely encouraging and everything begins with learning to move safely. The class culture is, “show up and give YOUR best.” That looks different for everyone and those personal wins are celebrated at TrueSpirt; egos don’t last too long round here. Beginners are just as welcome as beasts and there are plenty of both. So if you’re looking for a gym that will challenge you without pushing you too far (ie. injury), definitely check out TrueSpirit!

Fantastic experience: Me and my two friends dropped in to the 9 am class and had an amazing experience! Leslie (coach and owner) was super welcoming and a fantastic coach. The WOD was super fun as well. I felt safe there too because of the people effective coronavirus precautions. Overall a 10/10 experience

Fantastic experience: Great gym! Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: CrossFit is the only workout program I’ve tried that I could see myself sticking to for life but True Spirit has been my only experience of it. The coaches make this gym a safe place to push yourself and learn to listen to your body. The members are supportive and welcoming. I have loved going to classes at different times and experiencing the group dynamics that are unique to each one. As a fringe benefit, I’m a lot stronger for the mountain activities that I love!

Fantastic experience: Amazing place, amazing community!! I didn't really know what CrossFit was when I signed up with my husband and I absolutely love it!

Fantastic experience: I have been with True Spirit for almost 6 years. The coaches ARE ATTENTIVE and offer scaling to meet you where you are that day. I’ve never felt less than at TSCF. The community is great and VERT SUPPORTIVE of one another. I’m glad I found my spirit at TSCF!!

Fantastic experience: I never dreamed that as a senior, recovering from a fairly recent tibial plateau fracture, that I would be capable of participating in Cross Fit alongside other wonderfully fit athletes, but having held the gifted Foundations certificate for an extended period, I finally took the plunge and redeemed the certificate, then followed up with monthly membership. That was a year ago and now I am completely hooked. The beauty of Cross Fit is SCALING (modifications to suit the participants abilities), and the coaches at True Spirit do an amazing job of catering to each individual in a class, and offering great scaling options. In addition, the members at True Spirit are incredibly supportive. So even if I do a modified workout, or I am the last to finish a workout, or I push the smallest weight of the group, I do not not feel any less 'relevant'. I am so grateful to be part of this wonderful community, and thankful for 'the new lease on life' it has given me.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I started working with True Spirit in December and it has been a great experience for us. The coaches are amazing and I feel amazing!!

Fantastic experience: Great coaching and a fun community!

Fantastic experience: One of the best CrossFit gyms I've ever been to. They put an emphasis on quality coaching. Good place for people looking to use CrossFit for health reasons.

Fantastic experience: Being totally new to crossfit when I started at this gym in March, I feel like the foundation classes were very appropriate and I am glad the gym has you start crossfit that way to prevent injuries. I love the people at this gym and all the coaches respect my limits and accommodate for them. I have had great success with my goals and have had dramatic improvement with my fitness level. I think that the friendships built and staying healthy is worth more than any monetary value. Thank you True Spirit Crossfit!!

Fantastic experience: I love this gym, when I started I never thought it would become another family. The coaches are amazing, they will push you to do more, while at the same time they won’t hesitate to correct your form or have you drop some weight if you try to do to much. I also love the balance of competition with the other athletes to help push yourself, yet everyone cheers each other on. There is never any judgement

Fantastic experience: Leslie is amazing! She has been an inspiration and a motivation to me since day one. Every coach and class I have been to offers a different, but wonderful experience. I am so blessed by the community I have gained from being part of True Spirit. I have never felt pressured by competition, I always feel encouraged and supported for being me and doing my best!

Fantastic experience: What a great place; the coaches, the people ... some amazing people and finding some amazing friends! I encourage people to come in and check it out ... I promise you'll wanna be doing "What they are doing". I am grateful to have found comfort and strength within this gym!

Fantastic experience: Community and inclusivity, with some sweat and handwork thrown in there, are the words that come to mind when I think about my favorite Crossfit gym. The coaches are supportive and will help you modify the workouts so that you can meet your goals without injury. No matter your current state of fitness, the other members will encourage, cheer, and laugh with you through every workout and sometimes during activities outside the gym -such as our group float trip down the Madison with our families, or ladies night out. And, speaking from experience, their programming pays off; since joining a year ago, all of my lifts and times have significantly improved.

Fantastic experience: Best crossfit gym in Bozeman! No egos, no attitude, great community of people.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym. Everyone is so friendly and encouraging, doesn’t matter what level athlete you are or were you will enjoy yourself here.

Fantastic experience: A gym where everyone knows your name. A great place to workout! Great coaches that are super supportive no matter where you are in your fitness journey. They even offer specific classes for the over 50 crowd as well as kid camps in the summer!! The gym is always clean and the equipment is well maintained. I highly recommend this gym!

Fantastic experience: I have found my forever gym!!! This place is full of amazing coaches and members that like to have fun and workout! No one takes themselves to seriously and laughter is heard often. I never thought I would actually look forward to going to the gym. Thank you True Spirit for making being and getting healthy so fun.

Fantastic experience: An incredibly supportive community for all kinds of athletes! So grateful to have joined!

Fantastic experience: This gym has changed so much about my life - my approach to health and fitness, my body image, my social circle, and definitely my physical ability! What a welcoming, supportive, amazing community of people. If you are looking for a place where you can show up and be welcomed and supported just as you are, then encouraged to be your best self, join us!

Fantastic experience: I've been going to True Spirit for about 3 months now, and it has been a great experience. I had never been to any kind of gym before, and from the start TSCF has been welcoming and encouraging. The foundation classes from Leslie were a great way to get started (especially for a gym newbie like me), then I moved into the Silver Fox classes for older members (I'm within sight of 60). I really like the variety of CrossFit workouts we do, and the staff works hard to set the levels to make them challenging, but not overwhelming. And the atmosphere at TSCF makes it fun – after three months in the Silver Fox classes with Dover I still look forward to class each time.

Fantastic experience: I love True Spirit CrossFit & Yoga -- this place is my second home! Super smart, motivating coaches and fun, inspiring members/athletes. We just wrapped up our first Honor Week, 4 big and meaningful WODs created by our own veteran coaches and athletes. Every one brought amazing energy and intensity; it's the BEST! All are welcome and encouraged to give your best effort on any given day.

Fantastic experience: The coaches are knowledgable, fun, and motivational. I leave every class feeling like a better me.

Negative experience: $200+ For Bad Injury First Day 1) POOR VALUE GYM. Fundamentals class is very overpriced and doesn't even include first month's membership. There are much more affordable, equally valuable, options available locally. Fundamentals class suitable for beginners that know only the basics about nutrition and fitness, which you could easily find online at no cost. 2) COACHES ARE INATTENTIVE, not focused on safety, and unempathetic upon injury. On first day, coach (co-owner) didn't listen to my request for lower weights and recommended higher weights for deadlifting (first day ever deadlifting), which immediately lead to a bad lower back injury. (Please note that I am an athlete and pretty fit.) I was sadly sent out with a chiropractor's card and a bad joke asking if I had IbuBroken. 3) GYM OWNERS ARE NOT RESPONSIVE to complaints and refuse to refund costs when reasonable situation warrants it. Upon approaching owners voicing concerns about high cost and first day injury, they justified all actions and costs in addition to suggesting I need to be my own judge/coach, which would make sense to me after some CrossFit experience - not on my first day. Owner's suggestion that their gym's high premium means better coaching and lower injury rate is false. 4) GYM OWNERS VALUE THEIR KNOWLEDGE OVER CLIENT'S MONEY. Owners seemed to be good people, but being both injured AND out $200+ for basic fundamentals knowledge (instead of just injured), I will not return and continue to direct people elsewhere where their money is valued, they won't be injured on first visit, or dissed when refund is reasonably and respectfully requested. This is despite owner "fearing for me" to visit other gyms, which is clearly ridiculous.

Fantastic experience: I love True Spirit! I've been crossfitting for years & am getting the best coaching & having the most fun with this gym!

Fantastic experience: Such a positive, welcoming gym. Coaches are so knowledgeable and positive, they help to motivate and encourage at every opportunity. Feels like a true community. I'm noticing positive changes in my body and it's only been a month! I highly recommend this gym!

Fantastic experience: A fun, supportive Crossfit community where every class is rewarding and great health and fitness strides are made. I can't say enough good things about the owners and coaches who are putting their best efforts into strengthening each athlete and the gym community through positivity and encouragement.

Fantastic experience: As an athlete, I am continually challenged and conitinually making progress: achieving new skills and lifting bigger loads. As a coach, I am proud to be part of an amazing team that is continually striving to create a fun, safe, and unique place to workout and be part of a very cool community.

Fantastic experience: True Spirit is the BEST. Each coach is knowledgeable, passionate, and patient. True Spirit offers community. There's a doormat when you enter that reads: "Check your ego at the door," and that philosophy is present. True Spirit is inclusive and fun and a place where everyone's achievements are celebrated. It's a gym that was born out of passion and excellence, and also compassion. Furthermore, you can start totally out-of-shape as I did and you can safely and quickly start to see big health and fitness level improvements. True Spirit is awesome.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member since the beginning and I love it here! Very welcoming, good scaling for athletes of all levels, great coaching, and great community.

Fantastic experience: Love you his place. I'm so much stronger then I've ever been. Better then my college years!!

Fantastic experience: I love this gym. I don't feel like I have to be something I'm not here; I just do my best to improve my health. The coaches are very encouraging and knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of two previous boxes and dropped into a few more in my travels. True Spirit is the most welcoming Crossfit box I have ever been to. Everyone is warm and humble with minimal ego. All coaches at True Spirit are excellent and have their own approach. It's nice that there are alternating coaches throughout the week in the same time slot. The exposure to different coaching methods truly benefits the athletes. Finally, the programming is excellent. It is varied but done with purpose. There is a stronger emphasis here on mobility than other boxes I have been to which has really helped me feeling pain free. Great people, great coaching, great workouts.
