Sharp Edge CrossFit^®

Fantastic experience: The cherry on top is the aesthetics of the space and the top of the line equipment. Hands-down the best gym in the area in my opinion and I always recommend it to any friends looking to join a gym or switch!

Fantastic experience: Great gym and an incredible service.

Fantastic experience: Great coaches - really pay attention and give specific real time feedback - friendly welcoming members, and amazing programming - workout are challenging and varied, and always combine metabolic/aerobic conditioning with strengthening movements. The best around.

Fantastic experience: Sharp Edge is my favorite crossfit gym, ever. The coaches are top notch, their knowledge is superior, and their expertise are unmatched. Coaches are consistent, educated and well-versed in multiple aspects of training, they care and always go above and beyond to accommodate everyone's needs and varying skill sets. The schedule is fantastic, there are classes in the morning, afternoon, evening and weekends - very flexible to accommodate the busiest of schedules. Programming is always thoughtful and purposeful too, never random! I love our inclusive community, SECF is for everyone!!!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Quality Sharp Edge kicks my butt every day I go in! The coaches are knowledgable and everyone is very encouraging. I've already seen major improvements in my performance in the 6 months I have been there. I can't wait for my next class!

Fantastic experience: Great gym and an incredible, supportive (non judgmental!) community of people. Joined SECF on a whim about two years ago with zero CrossFit or weightlifting experience, and going to the gym quickly became the highlight of my days. Through expert guidance from coaches and consistent encouragement from the rest of the gym members, I have been improving my fitness (and surprising myself!) at SECF ever since.

Fantastic experience: Sharp Edge is a super friendly gym. All skill levels are welcome, and there is a large range of skill among the members... you will not feel out of place. The coaches are professional and take proper care that exercises are performed correctly, to avoid any injuries. If you go regularly, you will learn how to safely lift weights, as well as a wide range of other athletic skills. Learning the many movements of crossfit can be challenging, but the coaches at Sharp Edge always take the time to demonstrate everything and to make you feel comfortable. Can't say enough nice things about this gym.

Fantastic experience: Tani and her expert coaching staff are knowledgeable, motivating, and passionate trainers. The classes are small so the coach's eyes are on you to make sure you properly and safely perform the movements. Tani programs challenging WODs, which are scalable for all levels of ability, and will push you and make you stronger. SECF members support and encourage each other without judgment. Everyone cheers on a new PR and celebrates a member learning a new skill. Trust me, I'm an O.G. with SECF and still going strong!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Quality I've been a member at SECF almost a year now and I can honestly say that my strength, confidence and health have excelled faster here than anywhere else along my fitness journey. The SECF staff is highly knowledgeable and always there for encouragement and support. SECF is judgement free, spacious, clean and I highly recommend it!

Fantastic experience: Best gym for a pandemic. Great airflow because of huge doors. Serious about precautions. Excellent coaching. Fun people.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Quality Great gym and community (fun and judgement free)! Perfect for all levels, no matter where you start your fitness journey!

Fantastic experience: I am so glad I found SharpEdge CrossFit! I started in the late summer 2020. I was a beginner and clueless about CrossFit, but Tani was so amazing and professional at teaching all the techniques and workouts. There's a great variety of equipment, spacious gym, positive environment, and everyone supports one another. No matter your level, you will feel accomplished and see positive results. Highly recommend! :)

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism Great place to workout with friendly and professional coaches

Fantastic experience: I arrived at Sharp Edge soon after a personal trainer that I loved moved away. I knew very little of CF and certainly nothing about the community. Tani & her staff are engaged, thoughtful in the programming, and welcoming to new comers. This last part was important to me as I wasn't really technically profeicent at all the lifting movements. But it's also the sweet gym members that are encouraging, positive and seemingly remember all their own struggles to strength and conditioning. And the gym members probably saved my sanity as we navigated Covid. The small group work outs, pushing heavy weights and the combo of cardio/body weight/gymnastics movements keeps me challenged every time. In short, great gym and community.

Fantastic experience: Great gym and an incredible staff.

Fantastic experience: Great gym and great coaches! I was new to Crossfit and spent about 3 months working out here. Tani, Trista, and Joe are excellent teachers that helped me learn the movements and pushed me to perform at max effort. I was able to improve very quickly in my short time here. I would highly recommend this gym!

Fantastic experience: I'm from out of town. This was a great gym for a drop-in like me. I've been doing CF for years, but I'm not super-fantastic, and I didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Both instructors I met gave feedback without being negative.

Fantastic experience: Great Facility and addition to Evanston, if you are interested in starting CrossFit and want a more close knit feel this is the place. The Owner and Head Coach is awesome and will help you achieve but any means.
