Chaz and Mandy C 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Good people and cool box to do a drop-in. Cool building and a really cool rig! The salty air has taken a toll on some of their equipment but it happens on the coast, lol. Massive space so they definitely can accommodate a big group. This would be a fun competition location.

Fantastic experience: I'm 4 months into CrossFit and this gym has been fantastic. The coaches are always supportive and provide feedback for safe lifting. Having a supportive coaching network is awesome and FFCF exceeds the standard. Awesome place to drop in if you're on island for vacation/etc. Kara runs a fantastic program!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality I just joined this gym and the workouts and people are great! Sometimes crossfit gyms can give really complicated workouts, but this gym has excellent programming that allows for intense workouts. The coaches are also nice and offer great advice and supervision.

Fantastic experience: The gym and facilities are always clean and organized. The staff and members are friendly, welcoming, and inclusive. I really enjoy the highly structured format of the warm-ups and workout, along with the availability of post-workout "bonus" sets. Even during quarantine, the coaches have been keeping us accountable and involved, making sure we meet our fitness goals until we can get back to the gym itself.

Dylan Boudreaux 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: My favorite box in Galveston. I truly look forward to visiting every time I’m in town for work. The coaches are very welcoming, friendly, and knowledgeable! It’s my home gym away from home! I would recommend this place to anyone. I’ve traveled to a lot of different gyms around the states and this one sits at the top of the list!!

Levi Smathers 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: If you're considering working out or CrossFit, this gym is the best place to start. The coaches and facility are top notch and the community feeling makes it easy to get comfortable. When I first started, I could barely do any of the movements and now I look forward to going to the gym multiple times per week. If you're an active Crossfitter looking for somewhere to drop in, you can't go wrong with Flying Fortress. The gym is gigantic and the rowers/bikes/weights are all in great condition. The coaches are always willing to give extra instruction when you need clarity and the other members do a great job of encouraging everyone.

Alex A 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! What's up 5am class. Thanks for your hospitality this morning. Sam was an awesome coach and Hud, a famous 5am regular, modeled every movement to perfection. It was a great drop in experience!

Alberto 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming here for a couple of years, and this place is truly special. The large space and great equipment are outstanding, but it’s the coaches and members that make coming here the best part of the day. If you’re thinking of dropping in somewhere, it doesn’t get better than this!

Josh Rog 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was a drop in from out of town and I can't say enough good things about this gym. They were all extremely welcoming and offered a great atmosphere and environment. Everyone had a very diverse range of athletic abilities and they worked to make sure everybody was accommodated. Classes were on time and well organized. The facility itself was big with plenty of personal space and equipment to go around, and the location was easy to find. If you ever find yourself in Galveston this is the place to go!

Brendon Edmiston 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dropped in for a workout while on vacation in Galveston. Great coaching and great facility. I highly recommend stopping in if you are in the area.

Chance Richardson 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: If you enjoy dropping into gyms, you cannot pass up dropping into this one. The coaching staff was amazing, and the gym is very well done. Go throw down on a workout and get you a t-shirt.

Brook Barrineau 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I stopped by Flying Fortress CrossFit for a 6:00 AM “Drop-In” class. This box is the real deal and the coaching was excellent. There were several new folks that were instructed to scale the loading and reps so they would maintain proper form and get the most from the MetCon. The box had an impressive rig and all the gear that a legit box will have. The programming for the day was very challenging and there was plenty of very friendly encouragement from the members. I highly recommend this box for anyone looking for a welcoming box with good people. Nicole has 10 years experience in CrossFit which goes a long way in coaching others. 5 Star review for sure!

Jackie Dierks 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Flying Fortress is the best gym I've ever been to. The coaches truly care about every member and their progress. I have improved on every movement in the six months that I have attended. The environment is so positive and motivating, you get a happy feeling as soon as you walk in! Last but not least, the facility is so clean and the bathrooms are as nice as you have at home.

Evan McAdoo 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best Crossfit on the island by far! Coaches are awesome and really take pride in what they do! Can't recommend enough.

Daniela Manzano 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love the coaches and the people at this facility. If you're looking for a place to workout, this is the place to go. I love this box, everyone is super friendly and very encouraging. They not only help you, but they work with you to get even better!

Rachel Barnett 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Awesome place to workout! I love it here. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable, uplifting, and helpful. They pay close attention to form always, and correct you if anything doesn't look right. You can tell right away that they really care about each person that walks in. The facility is beautiful, spacious, and clean. Not only are the coaches fantastic, so is the community. Everyone I have worked out with so far has been great, and although we are all racing the clock during each workout we all encourage and keep each other going. If you're in the area, I highly recommend checking this place out.

Todd Schott 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: This group of trainers at Flying Fortress CrossFit knows what they are doing. From the start, I felt very comfortable with trying CrossFit. They took me in and helped me understand every move and training class that they did. It is a great feeling of accomplishment that you get when you attend a Flying Fortress CrossFit Class. I highly recommend trying this company. You won't be disappointed.

Clint Shuttlesworth 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: The community and coaches are great. They really make you feel like your apart, and help you make sure you're hitting your goals. Great atmosphere to be apart of.

Juanomulitas 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: The best.

DB Kennedy 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Flying Fortress Crossfit is a stellar gym. The facility is by far the best/nicest in Galveston. Kara and Nicole have years of experience and training beyond what is required to open a gym and coach. They genuinely care about your performance, safety, and meeting your goals. They put forth the effort to give individual instruction in a group class, and do much more than just yell at everyone to go faster and harder for an hour. If you're thinking about giving it a try, I would definitely recommend it. The members are very friendly and there are plenty of family friendly social activities as well- like movie nights, cookouts, etc.

Elizabeth Torres 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love coming to FF! Great group of encouraging people to workout with and even more motivating coaches. If you're visiting Galveston or looking for new place to call your box, Drop-In!

Liz Rogers 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: The best CrossFit in Galveston! We love this community, the coaches and the facility. Best programming and amazing people - have been a CrossFit athlete for four years and this is the best box I've ever been to.

jonathan cook 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Came here with minimal experience and the coaches and members have all helped me to grow and reach so many goals and personal records. Every aspect of this box is welcoming, fun, and challenging at the same time. I would encourage anyone to come and give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

George Veselka 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Kara, Nicole, and Austin are great! After a 1-2 year hiatus from working out in general, they have made it fun and easy to get back in to the groove! The gym is large with nice equipment and the other crossfitters are awesome! I definitely recommend Flying Fortress!
