HBIC Ashley is a top tier owner and coach. Her mission of making her gym inclusive and accessible welcomes all communities of people to feel involved and invested in. I trust her to make all activities safe and tailored to every individual that walks into her gym and that's why she's the gym I referral all my patients to. As a chiropractor I see a lot of patients with lifting injuries and Ashley is who I trust to take care of the people I care about. Her work ethic and drive are matched by none and she has gone above and beyond at creating virtual classes to keep her clients safe and busy from the comfort of their own home. She shows up to work every day ready to grind and the size of her heart is evident in the work that she does. She will make your membership work for you, whatever the cost. You won't regret being a part of this gym's family.

This gym is all the components I love about CrossFit without all the negatives. Workouts can be tailored to ANY fitness level and any complex lifts are done safely and slowly. Ashley has created an inclusive environment for all and I would highly recommend this gym to both beginner and advanced fitness students. Do yourself a favor and try it out and see. Everyone is so friendly and supportive and I always love coming to class. Also Ashley's dog is perfection.

I always found weights and CrossFit intimidating. I had also heard horror stories of people hurting themselves and competitive gym culture, and this gym counters those horror stories. Ashley, the owner and main trainer, does such an incredible job of scaffolding and micro-corrections, and I feel like I’m learning so much about my body and am getting stronger. I’m surprised by how much I enjoy it! And, she is creating an incredibly welcoming and supportive community...You’ll be welcomed and your accomplishments will be celebrated whatever your fitness background and level is.

I was already super happy with my gym experience at Prism before covid-19. It is clean, friendly and so supportive! I was driving 30 minutes to the gym and still attending regularly (a miracle with 3 kids under 10). The community is something special, I have never felt that way at any other gym.The shift to how it has operated in this strange covid time has just completely confirmed that this is the gym for me. I have never stuck with working out at home until now. Ashley has been very proactive in making changes and shifting to an online format for work outs, checking out equipment to those who need it, all while continuing to help us take care of our bodies and making us strong! Besides all of these wonderful things she continues to make sure we all feel supported at this time. She always makes me feel like my kids are included if they need to be or if I need to escape them she supports that too! I am confident with the steps Prism is taking to plan for eventual reopening, and that it will be a safe supportive place again. I am SO excited to continue my training and workouts in a post covid world. I honestly never thought that would be the case. Thanks Ashley!

Scared of CrossFit? This gym is for you. Newbie to working out? This gym is for you. Feel uncomfortable in traditional gym environments? This gym is for you.Ashley (gym owner) has created a community of supportive people who all have a similar goal in mind... to get their bodies moving! No matter what your ability, there's a place for you here.I NEVER thought I'd be interested in CrossFit (eww no thanks to the macho bro-culture), but at Prism Fit, it's different. I am proud of how strong I've become and I feel SO GOOD after working out here. Ashley helps exercise feel like a good time, rather than a punishment. The team mentality keeps me motivated to keep coming back.

This is the most inclusive gym in Portland! I also love the variety in the workouts. Ashley has seemlessly managed to transfer the in-gym experience to a virtual one. The virtual workouts currently offered by Prism Fit are just as hard, fun and challenging. Although I can't wait to return to the physical gym once restrictions are relaxed I'm still pumped that I have access to great workouts online!

Prism Fit is a wonderful, welcoming gym to athletes of all skills and bodies of all types. Coach Ashley designs interesting and challenging programming every day, and also offers modifications and options that are inclusive and empowering. During COVID-19 days, Prism Fit has gone online with daily Zoom workouts tailored to getting strong in the living room with or without equipment, and I am as sore and smug after these workouts as I was in the gym. 💪🏼

This gym is amazing. Ashley (owner and instructor) is both super accommodating and incredibly motivating. I never felt super comfortable in a gym space, and Prism Fit is so welcoming, approachable and INCLUSIVE. The energy is awesome - highly recommend!
