Ypsi Arbor Strength

A very patient coaching staff who are willing to modify the workouts for everyone makes it a great gym for beginners and advanced athletes. Also, the healthy culture makes it easy to enjoy your workout!

I can't say enough how much I love it here. I wish I hadn't waited so long to join. Dan, the owner, put me immediately at ease, and I knew it was the perfect place for me. The community is nothing short of amazing, supportive, and welcoming, and the instructors know their stuff. They are passionate, dedicated, and invested in every students' progress. There are no supersized egos here, and you will meet people from all walks of life, and of all shapes, sizes, and fitness levels. You'll be pushed beyond your comfort zone, but form, safety, and FUN are paramount, and the confidence you'll gain will spill over into other areas of your life. I walk out feeling like I can conquer the day, and in the thick of a very difficult year, it has quickly become a home base for me.

Dropped in after work and had a good time. The owner was amazing to talk to after class and didn't have a issue recommending other boxes in the area. Hope to be back sooner than later!

Finished my fifth introductory private lesson. Next step is to attend the actual classes. I understand why you need the intro private lessons. Dan was wonderful at modifying exercises for me, recognizing my challenges an encouraging me to push forward. I look forward 2 tomorrow!

Training is not only strong, but the owner, Dan, and his trainers create a feel good and supportive environment for getting and staying in shape. Can accommodate ALL fitness levels.

During a cross country military move, I was passing through and dropped in for two workouts and loved it! The "box" is wide open with lots of space, the other athletes were friendly and reflected a good culture at the gym, the two coaches who led class were friendly and engaged during the session, and the programed workouts were interesting, intense, and well rounded. I loved it! If I lived here, this would be my box!

Great place for quality coaching. I worked out there for almost 2 years and just recently dropped in for a workout while back in town. Good community and the staff, especially Dan, care about you as a person.

One of the best gyms (and communities) I am grateful to have been a member of. When it comes to quality of training, coaching, and equipment, this gym is at the very high end. I finally was able to find a way to get more healthy and have some fun at the same time. Whenever I am back in the area, a workout at Crossfit Ypsilanti is at the very top of my to-do list.

When I moved to the area I wanted to try out a few different CrossFit gyms to see which would be the best fit for me. I reached out to CrossFit Ypsilanti and was able to correspond with the owner Dan. He was extremely helpful and made it super easy to arrange a drop in try out class. When I arrived to the gym I met Dan who came off as knowledgeable about fitness and interested in helping people reach their goals. I got the impression from Dan that the CrossFit gyms in Ann Arbor have more of a collaborative spirit rather than a competitive spirit because he asked about the other gyms in the area that I tried or planned to try and he had very kind things to say about them all. The workout that I got at CrossFit Ypsilanti was very challenging and I enjoyed myself quite a bit. If you are looking to join a new gym in Ypsi then this one is your best bet!

Jett and Dan are both extremely knowledgeable and experienced coaches, making CrossFit Lily a great place for both beginners and more experienced athletes to excel. The classes are always coach led, and the movements that are expected are reviewed each time, helping to assure proper technique and reduce any risks of injury. They are vocal throughout the entire class, and do a great job of giving each person individual attention.In addition to regular crossfit classes, they offer Olympic weightlifting 3 times a week and a kettlebell specific class once a week. Jeff has a great eye for the Olympic lifts, and is able to quickly identify faults and help coach you through them to allow you to move better and lift heavier.The programming is intentional, but still varied, so I feel that I'm constantly being challenged and improving and have seen better numbers in my strength and huge advancements in my skills since moving over to CFL.Lastly, there's a wonderful community at the gym with the members supporting each other's goals, whether they be fitness, nutrition, or otherwise. If you're brand new and looking to try crossfit or you're experienced and just looking for a different environment, you should check out Crossfit Lily.
