It’s been almost a year with Orchard Valley, and very rarely do I feel this way about things or places, but I have to say that when we move in a few years, leaving Orchard Valley CrossFit will be one of the hardest parts of our move. Regardless of your level of fitness, familiarity with CrossFit, age, gender, or motivation, Nick, Penny, Shannon and Erin will accommodate and welcome you to class as truly some of the friendliest people I have ever met. Not only have I met a lot of personal goals over the last year through this gym, but I feel like they have created a community that is unlike any other gym in the area.
Kids are welcome in the kids area, which is great for the summer or parents that don’t work and want to still work out. They offer gymnastics (CrossFit focused) and olympic lifting classes in the evening, CrossFit Teens, and CrossFit kids, offering a complete package in ensuring you attain whatever fitness goals you’re looking to achieve. We truly enjoy what this gym has to offer.
After a year of getting my butt kicked in workouts, and losing about 20 lbs through their program, I feel great, am excited to get to my workouts each day, and enjoy the people I work out with. Thank you for a wonderful year...
Read moreI always heard crossfit was impossibly difficult and only top athletes were capable of the workouts. My husband and I enjoyed WATCHING crossfit, and I have always considered myself fit, with a regular gym routine and not so bad eating habits. I’ve done different sports, different workout programs, different training methods and I have never been tested in the way I have my first month at crossfit. & I don’t mean just physically—I mean mentally. In the past month; I’ve grown stronger, can endure more, learned more about eating to perform, etc. but, more than anything—I have grown mentally stronger. I am more focused during workouts, throughout the day at work—in all aspects of my life. I have felt a tremendous increase in confidence in my abilities and myself. Nick and Penny are incredible & attentive. Their additional trainers are knowledgeable and purposeful. This is a family owned business and you can feel that energy in every aspect of OVCF. I would highly recommend to anyone, especially beginners...know that you will be welcomed and nurtured. To go to a gym everyday with a variety of skills sets and be cheered through a workout no matter how much earlier they finished than you—there’s...
Read moreI was searching for a CrossFit gym that could accommodate me after a previous rotator cuff surgery and a few back injuries. I’ve been medically cleared for about six months now and was eager to get back in shape. I reached out to Orchard Valley CrossFit and spoke with Penny, who recommended I try one of their free sessions. I signed up for the 5:30 AM class and met Coach Ryan Miller.
Before the class started, I shared my concerns with Coach Ryan regarding my condition. As the session began, I noticed many advanced athletes in the group, but Coach Ryan took the time to provide me with modified options while keeping the entire class engaged. I never felt left out or uncomfortable working alongside more experienced students. Instead, I felt welcomed and capable of completing the workout with modifications without any judgment.
The students I met were incredibly professional, courteous, and interacted with me as if I had been attending for months. I genuinely enjoyed the class and highly recommend Orchard Valley CrossFit to anyone looking to get back in shape after an injury. They take the time to explain and modify exercises so that no one feels...
