I went to class when it was skill day and the skill was rowing. This was the first time that I actually understood the science behind strokes per minute and how it can effect your performance on the rower. Since that class I already feel an improvement and it’s because of Cierra.

Chase is a super nice, chill personality. He gave really good tips on t2b today! As a CFL old-timer 👵, I still need new ideas/tweaks to relearn moves I used to be able to do and I appreciate that Chase pays attention to each person in class.

Every time I take a class with Cierra I feel as if I walk away more efficient at a movement that I want to improve. Her coaching helps a tiny bit more with every class!

Cierra made me feel like part of the team from the start. She set time aside to get me acclimated to the gym but didn’t hover when I was working out. She talked to me afterwards about my attendance and was very welcoming.

Despite the thunderstorms, Ashli quickly adapted the WOD environment while adhering to the programming of running and provided many options for members to complete the workout. She did this is a very positive and humorous way. Great workout on a very humid day!

Cierra was great! When doing overhead squats, I tend to forget form and she always takes the time to remind me what needs to be corrected. Hanna and her team are all attentive to what is happening and how to correct everyone’s form so they don’t injure themselves. Thank you Coach Cierra

Early morning classes are sometimes a struggle to wake up and get moving, but once there, I’ve never regretted my decision to go to the gym. Hanna and her team are a huge part of the why I go and continue in my health journey! They are the absolute best and Hanna is a phenomenal person that helps you achieve your goals.

Hanna was great today! It was my first time and she made me feel welcome. Since I didn’t know much she helped me on the side get comfortable with the workout and checked on me periodically. She also teamed me up with a partner for the end of the workout. I went to the 5am class which was a nice start to the day!

If you're looking for a coach who won't let you get away with anything, Cierra is your person. She's a fantastic coach who provides the kind of unfiltered—and yes, occasionally unsolicited—feedback you absolutely need to excel in CrossFit. Take this morning, for instance: the whole class was celebrating my new PR, only for Cierra to swoop in with a lightning-fast 'no-rep' because my knees slightly bent. All joking aside, anyone would be lucky to work with Cierra as her coaching elevates everyone around her.

Cierra is an exceptional CrossFit coach whose expertise, dedication, and energy have made a significant impact on my fitness journey. She consistently tailors movements to align with my personal goals, making sure each workout is both effective and purposeful. After my shoulder surgery, Cierra prioritized my recovery, incorporating modifications that met the stimulus, while still encouraging me to perform at my highest potential. Her knowledge of functional movement and training, and ability to emphasize the “why” behind it, combined with her positive and motivating personality, creates a such a motivating environment, even at 5am :) Her guidance and commitment make showing up to do the work an easy choice.

She was fantastic, she gave clear and concise information during the warm up, prep, and workout periods. Helped encourage use to push harder when needing to but also didn't pressure us to push further then we could or were comfortable with. She also had good little nuggets of information to improve out snatches. I know I especially benefited from one of her suggestions. I also loved the format with just focusing on an Olympic lift but I also love oly lifting.

Hey! I thought the class was great! I enjoy the programming and challenge it provides. Minor point: occasionally the music on the far side where I usually workout overpowers the instructor. That is almost never the case with you, but when Sarah is coaching it’s something to be mindful of. She’s absolutely wonderful, it’s just hard to hear her sometimes. Ya’ll are the best!
