I am not sure where to start! Individualized modifications as needed, welcoming, high energy, professional knowledgeable staff, and family owned. It doesn’t get much better than that! All levels welcomed and encouraged to attend classes. Non-judgmental atmosphere to set and reach your own fitness goals!

This is my 2nd Crossfit Gym, I trained with owner a few years ago and now she opened her own CrossFit. The gym is well kept and everything was in its place. My instructor was more than knowledgeable. I highly recommend Essential CrossFit.
