IRB CrossFit^®

Fantastic experience: IRB Crossfit and Coach Mel are amazing, I've been there once, travelling from Australia and, I wouldn't go anywhere else, best Crossfit gym I've ever been to. Whether working out in the gym, or on the beach, I highly recommend IRB Crossfit for fun and challenging workouts, with a great gym community. I have also used coach Mel for strength and conditioning training planning while at home in Australia because I trust her knowledge and experience.

Fantastic experience: Ich war zwei Mal zum Dropin dort. Bin sehr herzlichen aufgenommenen worden. Mel ist sehr freundlich und achter sehr auf die Technik. Die WODs passen gut zueinander von Tag zu Tag. Geht hin und Ihr werdet eine gute Zeit haben

Fantastic experience: Great group of locals with a killer vibe! Top notch!!!

Fantastic experience: When I'm visting IRB always go IRB CF what a great place Mel is a great coach along with some awesome WODS! Love Sat beach workouts.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym in Indian Rocks Beach! My wife and I were vacationing and wanted to start the day with a good workout, Coach Mel delivered. Very friendly, clean, great community. Will definitely be dropping in again in the future.

Fantastic experience: My husband and I dropped in to IRBCF this past week while on vacation. Such a cool community. Thanks Coach Mel!

Fantastic experience: I dropped into IRB Crossfit a couple of times while on vacation. Had two great workouts - coach Mel was great to work with and fun to talk to, and the gym is super clean and looks very nice! Highly recommended if you’re in the area.

Fantastic experience: What to say about IRB…. And specifically Coach Mel… wow not sure where to begin because there is so much greatness! You will never regret a workout /an environment that is practiced around or through Mel. She is such a bright light and believes in every single person that ever walks through the door- and for SOO many reasons, she is hands down the best of the best as a CrossFit coach, and as a person in general. Period! -Becka

Fantastic experience: We’ve been going to IRB CrossFit and coach Mel for over 2 years. Every personal training session is a WORKOUT!!. It’s tailored to our needs, strength and endurance. She has a keen eye on when to push harder and we love it. No two sessions are the same. I don’t know how she does that, but it makes it so much fun to be challenged. She’s also very active in our IRB community and that just wonderful.

Fantastic experience: I started CrossFit for the first time a month & a half ago, I haven’t been more in love with a sport thanks to Coach Mel. IRB CrossFit has the best community… so welcoming, encouraging and fun!!!! I was definitely scared to try something new but I am so blessed to be here with the IRB Community and Coach Mel. I can’t wait to continue with CrossFit and eventually compete once my skills improve. The gym is always clean, the equipment is incredible and the workouts are amazing! I have already seen so many changes in my body mentally and physically and for that, I am thankful! Thank you Coach Mel & IRB Community.. y’all rock!

Fantastic experience: Classic CrossFit workouts in a top notch facility, the vibe at IRBCF is beachy and casual - the kind of place you instantly feel at home. The Saturday beach workouts are fun and accessible. Coach Mel is down to earth and sharp, clearly very experienced as a coach and athlete herself. Everyone, member or drop-in, loves her. Also, the merch is awesome so make sure to buy a shirt or two! And stickers. And a hat.

Fantastic experience: Coach Mel is great! Super cool, and is a great Coach!! Knows her stuff!! Highly recommend! Thanks Coach!!

Fantastic experience: Workouts on the beach for Saturday’s?! Yes please. Amazing coaches and great workouts. Just what the Dr. ordered. Will for sure be back one day!

Fantastic experience: This was a fantastic experience! Mel is great and so are her members. Welcoming and encouraging! Clean and bright space. It’s was refreshing to be able to drop in here while we were on a quick get away to the beach! I highly recommend this place. We will be back on our next trip for sure. PS.. she also has great merchandise!

Fantastic experience: IRB CrossFit gym is an awesome gym. I discover this gym in 2020 in my trip to IRB. Coach Mel was the nicest person ever and welcome me with open arms. I learned so much in the few days that I dropped in. I make sure that I drop in each time I visit IRB. I went back to IRB CrossFit in 2021 and still had an awesome experience and even worked out on the beach.

Fantastic experience: Great facility, coaching was excellent. Thanks, Melanie!

Fantastic experience: Mel is absolutely amazing and the gym is very welcoming

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Absolutely amazing gym, fantastic coach (Mel), beautiful community!! Come here for friends, fitness and fun times!!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality IRB CrossFit is an amazing gym, Mel is the most motivating and sweet coach i've ever had. I started CrossFit a little over a year ago and this gym is like a family to me. If I could give 6 stars to this gym I would. These workouts are the best i've ever done, I am in the best shape of my life.

Fantastic experience: This is an incredible gym and group. Melanie is a fantastic coach. Wish I had discovered this place sooner.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in from out of town for some open gym time. Owner seemed very cool, equipment is top notch. Overall had a great experience and would go back.

Fantastic experience: We are here on vacation and decided to drop in for my first ever CrossFit workout. It could not have been a better experience. The owner/coach was very welcoming and explained the workout so a newbie like me could understand. The best part was the care and attention she gave to my technique and form. I must have learned a half dozen different things. The class was friendly with great support and encouragement. I will definitely be back while I am in town (despite how sore I know I will be). Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Mel's gym is one of the most welcoming, clean and well rounded gyms I've ever been to. I went to Mel's gym while on vacation and she treated me like I was one of her athletes. Her workouts are perfectly tailored towards your skill level and she takes the time to ensure your form is perfect. I could not recommend this gym more!

Fantastic experience: My family and I go on vacation in Indian Rocks every year. This gym was right next door so I thought I'd check it out and I'm glad I did. Coach Mel was a very positive force from the time I entered the gym until I left. The WOD was great and I felt comfortable scaling. Coach Mel gave great alternatives to everyone. I would definitely recommend this gym to those in town on vacation.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality Coach Mel is a world class programmer and CrossFit coach... and her facility is amazing! I have dropped in on dozens of boxes while traveling for work and vacation... NONE BETTER than IRB CrossFit!!! If you are living or vacationing here, look no further. I want to move here! Thank you for an amazing week of CrossFit Coach Mel!!!

Fantastic experience: IRB CrossFit is a truly special gym, and we can't wait to come back. My boyfriend and I stumbled upon the gym during our vacation in IRB, and instantly fell inlove with the space, CrossFit, and the community in IRB. What makes the gym truly special and unlike any gym we've been to before... is Coach Mel. She's knowledgeable, open, and so welcoming. She takes time to know your strengths and weaknesses, and focuses on your goals. Sometimes we felt like she knew our bodies better than we did! We were able to learn so much about our bodies, our strengths/weaknesses, and about CrossFit from her. As a couple that stuck to traditional weightlifting at gyms, CrossFit was completely new to us. But because of Coach Mel and the community, we were able to fit right in and learn about this fantastic sport. There's no going back now, and we can't wait to take everything we learned from Coach Mel/IRB CrossFit into our future gym routines!! Thank you for everything Mel, you're the best!!!!

Fantastic experience: IRB CrossFit is the best workout in Pinellas County! Coach Mel works equally well with world-class athletes and old guys like me! Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Working out with coach Mel was the highlight of our trip to IRB! She is an incredible coach who perfectly balances pushing yourself and safety. I felt so much stronger in just 3 weeks! Her workouts are programmed to accommodate all levels and the community vibe that she creates is super fun and encouraging. I can't wait to go back to IRB CrossFit and highly recommend joining the community!

Fantastic experience: Great experience and great coaching.

Fantastic experience: Details matter and that's obvious with the organization and cleanliness of the facility right down to the spa like bathroom. With a beach in the backyard you couldn't ask for a better vacation box. Locals are lucky to have a fantastic Coach in Mel and box to call home.

Fantastic experience: OUTSTANDING GYM! I live in Atlanta but born and raised in FLA and have family beach house in Madeira so I have been coming to the beach here and dropping in at local gyms for years. Coach Mel/ Crossfit IRB have been the best experience in over a decade! Cleanest gym I've ever been in and you don't have to leave the beach to get here! If you are coming to the area or live here already......definitely check it out!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality

Fantastic experience: An amazing owner/coach and is very knowledgeable about safety in movements. Great people and atmosphere!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism Just a all around great place, and rite across the street from the beach too

Fantastic experience: Coach Mel is not only knowledgeable and capable, she is a wonderful role model and mentor for children to adults of all ages. Onward and upward! Whatever it takes!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality We were down here on vacation and it was the PERFECT place to get a very good workout in. This is my first experience with crossfit and Coach Mel was extremely knowledgeable and helpful to make sure everyone got a great workout while being safe. Everyone in the gym was very welcoming. We will be back!

Fantastic experience: Mel is an amazing coach. She will make you feel at home, comfortable and capable of anything. Her energy is so positive and radiant you will be hooked immediately, but the results she will help you achieve will keep you coming back.

Fantastic experience: Whether in town for the day, weekend, week, or month, Owner and Coach Melanie LeBlanc's warm welcome are what ultimately call for me to return each and every instance! With the aftermath of #CrossFitOpen workout 20.3 still repacking havoc on most of us, she ensured to treat me, and all athletes and participants the same during SAT (26OCT2019) morning's workout—and for the first time in quite some time I was more than "just another former #CrossFit Regional Athlete", ensuring that both during the strength and retcon portion's of the class she provided continued coaching cues and motivation. In addition, the opportunity to bring to the box an individual that is newer to the functional fitness methodology that is CrossFit, she ensured to provide motivational coaching leading up to all movement standards, ensuring that to the best of her abilities she was providing solid cues and suggestions. As a multiple affiliate investor and CrossFit participate since 2009, and even more so as a CF-L2, I can firmly say with happiness and warm welcome that Coach Melanie is one that I would feel privileged to both learn from and train with in the future. Thank you, IRB CrossFit, team and family for the warm hospitality!

Fantastic experience: I was at IRB for a couple months and am not a CrossFit follower, though I Iove movement and exercise. Mel, the owner, was awesome. She makes all workouts inclusive and modifies individually. So some people were doing tons of weights and reps and others, like me, were doing less, but still working on our form and challenging ourselves. The highlight was taking it to the beach (Tues and Sat. morning, at least for now). So freakin' fun! I shall return! (And it's also inspired me to step up my game a bit at home.)

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Melanie now for 4 months and she has helped me regain a lot of mobility and Strength. She is incredibly knowledgeable and very good at passing on that information. She is passionate about what she does and it's very motivating. She leads by example. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Fantastic experience: Coach Mel is one of the best coaches and personal trainers out there. Highly committed to her profession and is great at teaching all movements. Highly recommend this gym for anyone wanting to better themselves in any area.

Fantastic experience: Mel is such a sweet and informative person. I did a drop in here, it was a very welcoming and fun laid back environment. The is a new facility with new equipment and the asthmatics are very pleasing. They have lots of open gym hours, beach workouts and nice Tshirts.
