Love this place. My wife and I joined about 15 months ago and it has become the core foundation to our health and wellness (the couple's discount is a nice perk!). We were a bit intimidated at first since neither of us had a CF background but were instantly relieved from the intimate coaching experience you receive here. The community of people is very welcoming and encouraging and they slowly become your new family over time. There are folks with various fitness goals and backgrounds which makes it even more welcoming for those of us who are past our competitive prime and are simply looking to be healthy and fit.
I have several friends and family members who are members at other boxes who constantly envy and compare their boxes to the Downtown Atlanta location. The community engagement, the programming, and the coaching really sets this box apart from what I have gathered. This is the only box I've been a member at but I never want to leave!
Additionally, it is worth mentioning that I have never felt so valued at a gym as I have here. The owner, Michael, values each member like they're a part of his family. He has also transformed the gym to accommodate the "new normal" of COVID-19. I am actually pleasantly surprised about how safe and comfortable I feel attending class. Even during the quarantine, Michael loaned out equipment at no extra cost for members to take home so we could continue virtual classes at our homes. And he still continues those virtual classes for members who may not feel comfortable coming back quite yet.
If you are unsure and new to CF like I was, I promise that you won't be disappointed at this location. I've done everything from organized sports, to $30 gym members, to more expensive Orange Theory to try to find the motivation I need to stay healthy and fit. True, CF is not cheap, but for the first time in my life, I have not once questioned the amount I pay. There is a cost for coaching and programming sure, but the community and sense of value as a paying member is priceless and if that's what you're looking for, then CFDTA is the...
Read moreI have nothing but wonderful things to say about this gym. I was in a slump before I joined. I was trying to get my strength back after a back injury, and i was drained mentally and physically (and emotionally). I didn't feel like I had the tools I needed to reach my goals and get back to where i was, and it was extremely discouraging. Luckily, a dear sweet friend of mine led me to CFDA and I couldn't be happier. I am 100% confident in saying this is the best (and nicest) coaching i have ever received. I learn something every single class. Really. These coaches pay attention to each of us and make sure to give individualized advice to their athletes. The vibe and atmosphere is nonjudgmental, supportive, encouraging, and humorous It's so awesome to see myself getting back to where I was before my injury, re-learning the RIGHT and SAFE way to do things. The coaching staff is so knowledgeable and approachable. I really can't say enough good things about this place. And the members are just as wonderful. Soooooo supportive. I mean, I can't imagine getting up at 5:30 AM and looking forward to going somewhere the way i look forward to going to...
Read moreIn my recent business trip to USA I had traveled to Argentina to attain one meeting and thought if I could take one crossfit classes close by. Somehow I found this crossfit downtown. I had emailed them , called them and then took the drop in classes. Since it was a new place to me, it took lillte longer time to reach at the destination and I was little late for the class. But I requested the trainer and he allowed to me attain the class. It was an amazing experiences. I myself own fitness center (Called Maniac Lads ) in India and multiple fitness certificate holders as well. I have two years of experiences in doing and teaching crossfit workout over India. But I attainted the class as a student and really enjoyed. Trainer was able to help me to fundamental correction and the group was me was also awesome. I don't remember the name but I got a chance to meet the Crossfit Downtown Box Owner's wife and she welcomed me and spoke with me for few min. Overall it was an amazing experinces.. I would love to come back in future in my next visit to USA. Convery my hi to...
