Fantastic experience: Joining this CrossFit gym was the best decision I’ve made for my health and wellness not only am I feeling stronger and more efficient. I’ve been able to get to know some amazing people. The coaches are the best and the members are very supportive to beginners like me. I joined with zero athletic background and 42% body fat. I’m loosing weight gaining muscle and my confidence back. And also my memory is getting better I didn’t expect that. . ️‍♀️. Walk in check out a class and change your life for the better. ❤️

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Just finished a new member 6 week program and signed up for full time! You could not ask for a better staff. Michelle is an amazing, motivational coach and I look forward to going every time!

Shannon Kilkenny 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I texted at 10 PM the night before my first class and the coach texted me first thing in the morning to let me know that I could come whenever worked best for me. She immediately asked my name and then introduced me to the class, she made sure I had a partner for every part of the workout and coached me through a heavy lift when I was close to failure! I signed up for the week, as I was a drop in and just visiting for the week. There is no doubt in my mind that if I lived there, this would be my gym! I went 5 times, to 5 different coaches and had a unique and incredible experience each time! The people in the gym are not only awesome competitors but they're extremely friendly! I would recommend this gym to anyone that asked and I will definitely be back each time I'm in town! Thanks Root 18 crossfit!

Fantastic experience: One of the most welcoming places I've ever been, gym or not. Happy to have anyone of any skill level or age, personalizing and scaling workouts to make the most sense for the individual. They even offer nutrition coaching and personal training! If you've ever thought about doing CrossFit or just looking for a full body workout, this place is for you. The commitment to members and treating the community like family can't be beat. If I could give 6 stars I would.

Fantastic experience: More than just the gym, when you join this gym you become part of a family that stretches far beyond a workout.

Sophia Sgobbo 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: If you want to start to do something for yourself, there is no better place to go. I started CrossFit 2 years ago and it has forever changed my life. I can say I am a truly happy person now. I came in knowing nothing about working out and eating healthy. Immediately was welcomed and coached by people you could tell really wanted to teach and make me better for myself. They have a one of a kind coaches. And the environment is unmatchable. Truly a family. Come and give us a chance to make yourself great! From Personal Training down to getting Nutrition on point. There isn’t anything they can’t help or encourage you with. Come in!

Fantastic experience: I started at this gym a little bit over a year ago. I never thought I'd stick with it - but I do because of the coaching and friends you see every day always helping you (regardless of where you are at with your fitness)..

Nicole Theisen 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Took part in the 6 week challenge, and loved my experience!! New to CrossFit I was intimidated, thinking of joining those who have been at it for years. The coaches and the members are more than welcoming and supportive!! The most common phrase I heard from everyone is "We all had a day one!" Definitely recommend giving it a try if you're thinking of starting or even looking for a new CF location!

julie Kancler 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Joined Root18 in May 2018 with my teenage daughter for the New you class. After the 6 week class we were hooked. Coaches are amazing and know there stuff. Your background doesn’t matter every workout can be scaled to challenge you at your level with NO judgement just amazing support from every person there. My daughter worked with the coaches over the summer and with Erin on a meal plan and she had wonderful success.

Dew Drop Flower Shoppe 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I started CrossFit here with their 6 week “New You Challenge.” The coaches spend a lot of time on form and basics and modifications so that you can work at a level that is challenging but safe. The community is supportive, and fun. As a plus size woman, I’ve not had great gym experiences in the past, but Root 18 has been nothing but a positive experience for me.

Nick Harding 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Currently not working out here but I did for over a year. I still stop in from time to time. Left because my work situation changed and messed my schedule up. I would recommend this place to anyone. I’ve been all over the states working out and must say this is a first class gym. Everyone I’ve met at this place is amazing all so supportive and understanding. Doesn’t matter if it’s your first day or your 1000th day they treat everyone like family.

Cole Mathis 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love this place. The owners and coaches are awesome, they take the time to show you the right way to do things. They are patient, polite. It’s a great box, check them out!!!

Janina Higgins 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I joined a New You Challenge in May 2017 with Coach Michelle. Best decision I’ve ever made! I was never a very sporty or fit person, did some aerobics classes here and there. Had two back surgeries and other health issues. I needed a change and needed to improve my health. No matter where you’re coming from, what shape you’re in, if you’re looking for a real change and are ready to work for it, this is it! The coaches and even the other members are all super helpful, encouraging and supportive. It’s a wonderful community. I love this place!

Sergio Sgobbo 5 years ago
