Evolve Fitness Clearwater

I was skeptical about giving cross fit a try but the people at cross fit manta ray are really welcoming and know their training regiments. I would recommend it to all levels of fitness and all ages as well.

I knew a lifestyle change was needed but I had neglected myself for so long I didn't know where to start.Orientation was July 3, 2014 and life has changed quite a bit since then.I have gotten off of the couch, I have shown up and I have pushed myself like never before. I have lost 20 lbs and almost 4 inches off my waist in a little over a month but the scale doesn't tell half of the story.This awakening has made me a better me. I am a better husband, a better father and a better professional because I have more energy, more focus, more drive, more strength and more discipline than I have had in years.Jessica and I are so blessed to have joined such a great group of people, a community that challenge themselves daily and make us want to be better versions of our selves and for that, thank you.Life is all about the little things. If you show up and get a little bit better than you were the day before, you are doing Life right and your "Ability is limitless"!

Chris and Sebastian are the best, they have created a very welcoming environment where everyone pushes and is supportive of one another. When I started at the beginning of this year (February) I hadn't seriously worked out in over two years, I weighed 230lbs and had no energy. After taking a few weeks off after the groupon ran out I decided that I was going to make a change. CrossFit Manta Ray and the community that Chris and Sebastian have built there helped me change my life. I am down to 187lbs and have never felt better or stronger. My energy is always through the roof and I look forward to heading to the box everyday.Thanks to Chris and Sebastian for helping me get to where I am today.

This box/gym is amazing. I have been going for 6mos and have seen results like no other workout I have ever done. The coaches are awesome and super helpful. The atmosphere with the other members is very encouraging and welcoming. I would give this place more than 5 stars if I could. Wahoo, I love CMR!

I love this place! I purchased a Groupon and knew I was hooked within the first week! My husband and I joined 2 weeks later :) The coaches are so great....patient as you're new and encourage you to challenge yourself as you get stronger. I've lost 15 pounds since I started 6 weeks ago and continue to see my body change in response to the challenging workouts. I'm stronger and faster than I've ever been and know there's more to come. CMR helped me find my inner beast and have fun doing it. The coaches and the members have developed a great little community of friends, from beach WODs, to beach days, and competitions to scavenger hunts, we have so much fun! CMR is where you want to be!

We (me and Mr. Luis) started Crossfit @ Manta Ray in March 2014. Before choosing Manta Ray we scoped out local boxes closer to our home....when we came across the furthest locations which was Manta Ray we were impressed by how clean, organized, and professional they seemed to be. We met the Coaches and did the intro class and we signed up at that moment. These guys are truly awesome. They are always motivating and aware of each person and that all movements are being done not only correctly but efficiently. They are always making sure each athlete is progressing and most importantly that their self esteem is up (especially when the athlete feels like a total failure). In those moments they are positive and give moral support. There is definetely a community here at Manta Ray and I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so glad we choose Manta Ray. Coach Chris and Sebas are super duper awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I moved to Clearwater in March and joined within the first week of living here. I didn't know anyone before my move and was nervous to join a new gym. I had never been a member of a CrossFit affiliated box before but had always wanted to try it. I researched a lot of the other boxes in the area and after a few emails to various coaches I instantly felt the most welcomed from Manta Ray. I was beyond nervous and slightly intimidated for my baseline meeting with coach Chris. After my one on one I immediately joined! I came back later that day for my first WOD with coach Sebastian and so began my obsession/love for CrossFit!The coaching at Manta Ray is amazing. Not only are Coach Chris and Coach Sebastian fantastic motivators, they are also super knowledgeable about the sport and Olympic lifting. Manta Ray is more than just a gym but also a community. The friendships and relationships I have made with other athletes since becoming a member are one of the best parts of this sport. Because of CrossFit and Manta Ray I am a happier and healthier person. Prior to joining I wasn't nearly as motivated to workout, I wasn't sleeping as well at night and my diet was...well let's just say Chipotle and beer were a pretty typical meal for me. I have lost weight and inches while gaining muscle in just 5 months of hard work and dedication. I am becoming a healthier, stronger, and overall better person everyday because of Manta Ray!If you are looking for a serious change in lifestyle and are willing to be challenged and put in the hard work I highly recommend checking out CrossFit Manta Ray!

Manta Ray has a great team! The coaches are awesome and so are the people you workout with. Everyone is super encouraging and help push you through the workout, but not past your limits. I love the group mind set because while it's an individual workout, we are a team. I have made huge jumps in my abilities all while staying safe. The coaches watch and make sure your form is right so there are no injuries. Crossfit Manta Ray is a great place!

I bought a groupon back in February to try out Crossfit. I was very nervous at first, but Crossfit quickly became my new obsession! Coach Chris and Sebastian are wonderful.The workouts are HARD but you leave feeling amazing, plus they're super fun! The space is very clean and I love being able to track our progress on their computer! The best part about CF manta ray is the community! I have made so many amazing friends who are so motivating and encouraging. I am SO happy to workout everyday at this box.I definitely recommend Crossfit Manta Ray for newbies or seasoned cross fitters alike!

I have been a member of Crossfit Manta Ray for over 6 months now and it has definitely been the most life changing experience for me. I not only feel so much better but I aspire to do so much better inside and outside of the gym. The coaches are amazing! Both Chris and Sebastian are great instructors and they genuinely want to see you thrive! I owe a lot my progress to myself but to them as well. I learn something new every class and appreciate their patience as I continue to work on my form and etc. so that I can become the best version of me.
