Ive been a member of this gym/family for a couple years and have nothing but the highest appreciation for their knowledgeable staff, focus on me as an individual, and positive motivation and influence on my life. Stop in for a class and see for yourself.

My wife and I joined Evovle Fitness over a year ago and couldn’t speak highly enough about them. There is truly a family environment within the members and you’re always with coaches that care about you as an individual. They will help you meet your goals from fitness, to diet, to everything in between for your overall health

Great atmosphere, super clean👍

I enrolled in the 6 week challenge because, as I put on my enrollment form, I needed the kick in the butt. I got exactly what I needed. I feel I had a very successful 6 weeks, with the coaches at CrossFit Manta Ray playing a huge role in that success. The first morning I walked in the door, I was greeted by not only the staff, but by other athletes as well. This carried through every visit. The classes are set up with various tiers/exercises, based on your fitness level and abilities. On top of that, the coaches are quite active, quick to give you feedback, correct your form, or adjust whatever is necessary to ensure that you are completing the exercises successfully and safely. The meal plan is relatively easy to follow, though I tended to fall into a rut and eat the same things over and over, but that was largely due to my own tendencies, and the fact that I was still making meals for my family at home, separate from what I was eating. I was not hungry during the 6 weeks. Following the meal plan provided enough food/nutrition where I did not feel like I was on a starvation diet. Having been relatively athletic in my younger days, it does feel good to work back towards that state of being, and I have the 6 week challenge and staff at CrossFit Manta Ray to thank for that! For the record, I am a 45 year old male, who lost just under 27 pounds during the challenge. Im proof you dont have to be young and fit to embark on this type of journey!

CrossFit Manta Ray is AWESOME. I started with the six week challenge (which i finished) This challenge altered my bad behaviors. I went from eating horrible to eating healthy, drinking no water to drinking plenty, sleeping 4-5 hours to sleeping 7. The challenge helped me stay focus and consistent with working out. It helped me lose weight and have more energy. The workouts are a lot of FUN and the staff is amazing. The coaches are knowledgeable and they take the time to ensure everyone have good form during exercise movements. The gym members are nice and encouraging. Its a great place to be for any fitness level. THIS PLACE IS AWESOME.

Super welcoming place to work out! Everyone is really friendly and you can tell the coaches really want you to be successful and are passionate about helping you meet your fitness goals

Wow! I joined CF Manta Ray on a whim as part of the 6 week challenge. I had no idea what I signed myself up for. But after seeing terrible photos of myself - I had had enough and signed up that night. Now, Im not one for working out, actually I kinda dread it and I was never into sports growing up. But Wow - the folks at Manta Ray are amazing. The camaraderie, support, nutrition plan, this place really is like no other. If youre considering a change in life style, want to get fit... reach out to these guys. Coaches Sebastian, Tommy, Corey and John were all instrumental in helping me meet my goal. Everyone will welcome you to class, and support you regardless of your fitness level. I can truly say the 6 week challenge is one of the best things Ive done - just give it a try. I did it on a whim - and enjoyed it from beginning to end. Thanks CFMR!

I have been a member here since last year and love the gym! The coaches know what they are doing and will help you reach your goals. The people are great and make working out a lot of fun. Definitely recommend this gym!

By far the best way to get fit. Very challenging and yet fun at the same time. Great coaches and very supportive peeps. I am very happy with me decision to join CrossFit Manta Ray.

Let me just start by saying I used to feel very self-conscious about my own body image (and I still am, to a certain degree). But I realized I just wasn’t taking care of myself and finally decided I need to change that. I’m so glad I signed up for the 6 week challenge because it’s been life changing for me. Sebastian and the rest of the staff are the most supportive and encouraging group of people, and they always cheer me on and push me out of my comfort zone to help me keep improving and reach my weekly goals. Thank you guys so much for everything!

I started the 6 week challenge with no idea what I was getting myself into. All I can say is 4 months later the results have been amazing. It has truly been a life changing experience. The coaches are wonderful supportive people who have the knowledge that you need to get control of your body and health. I am truly grateful for my experience here and learning how to live a healthy lifestyle. My only regret is that I did not make this commitment years ago. Thank you Sebastian, Cory, John, and all the other members of the Manta Ray team for having my back and helping make me better everyday.

The trainers and coaches at Manta Ray Fitness, Clearwater, Florida are fabulous. You can reach Sebastian, John, Cory for guidance throughout the 6 week challenge. They are truly caring individuals who will modify the program appropriately for participants of mature age, such as myself. However this did not slow my progress. I feel as strong as I had felt in my 20s. My clothes are now too big! The menu they supply members is delicious and easy to prepare. They will often check in with you to find out how you are progressing and they encourage you all the way! Follow their lead and suggestions and you cannot fail.They are attentive and their guidance is unwavering. Thank you Sebastian, Cory, and John.

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.

I have been a part of CMR for over 5 years, and I am still constantly amazed of the environment the coaches create. This is not just a gym, but a supportive and caring community that pushes you every single day during each and every workout, past limits you never knew you could surpass! If you are looking for something more than just a great workout, come check us out!!

I love this gym! The coaches are awesome! They go out of the way to make sure you do things safely. The coaches take time to get to know you personally and will help you achieve your goals.

I joined the 6-week challenge at CrossFit Manta Ray right after I moved down to the area in September. At the time, I wanted something different form what I have done in the past, and I was also looking for a community! I definitely found that at Manta Ray!As a Physical Therapist, I know quite a bit about how the body moves, how to train it, and how it recovers. When seeking out assistance to reach my fitness goals, I want to know if that person/gym/company is knowledgable as well. I was definitely impressed by every coaches knowledge, how they integrated warm-ups, and how they explained movements.I was in a fitness and mental funk while working in VA for a year. (Totally unlike me - probably the cold weather). I do credit CrossFit Manta Ray for helping me get back on track physically and mentally!The community that CrossFit Manta Ray has established is a reason in itself to go here! Dont just go to CrossFit, go to 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 its 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 theyre 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!

Dropped in today for the 6 am class with my girlfriend Alyssa. Sebastian was our coach and was awesome ran class smoothly start to finish. The whole place had a great community vibe to it and we enjoyed our class next time we are in town we will definitely come back!

If i could put more than 5 stars I would. I love this place. The coaches are the best. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Check it out, youll be happy you did.

If you’re tired of quitting and starting over, or sick of fad workouts or yo-yo diets that don’t work and just being down, then give CrossFit Manta Ray a try! Don’t be scared or intimidated!! The coaches and staff are amazing, very thorough in their help and support, and will work with you regardless what physical shape you’re in. They will ensure you use proper technique to prevent injury. Absolutely zero judgement, just an energetic and positive environment where everyone encourages one another! The only person you are competing with is yourself. Warning: You will LOVE IT and feel completely and utterly pumped after every workout!! Just try it, I’m SO glad I did!!!!

Being a part of Manta Ray has been like being part of a family. I feel so comfortable and supported in my workouts. The coaches are full of knowledge and you can ask them anything about fitness, health, and nutrition. Highly recommend this gym to anyone!

If you are looking for a place to be inspired and achieve what you never thought possible then this is the place! Coaches and community are beyond compare. Once you walk in the doors you will never want to leave!Joining this community has been a transformational experience - when you dont make your health and fitness a priority for many, many years it can be difficult to know where to start. The coaches are always positive and encouraging, and really take the time to insure movements are done correctly, safely and consistently... their motto Ability is Limitless is truly how you will feel!! There is still much to do but I feel better now than when I was in my 30s!We feel so lucky to have found this community - it is now a family affair as our daughter is in the Crossfit Kids program - just cant say enough how positively Cross fit Manta Ray has impacted our life, and our familys health and overall well being.

Workouts are great. Coaches help you get the moves right. Bloodwork is showing great results. CMR gives you tools and support to attain great healthy goals.

I have been going to CrossFit gyms all over for many years now but this is by far the best! Amazing people!

I started with the 6 week challenge and lost 16 pounds. Coaches were very knowledgeable and super helpful. The workouts are the highlight of my day.

This gym has changed my life! The coaches are amazing and the community is outstanding. Best gym. Cannot recommend enough.

I knew a lifestyle change was needed but I had neglected myself for so long I didnt 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 doesnt 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!

Cant be happier that Ive become a part of this gym. The CMR family is highly professional, friendly, and greatly uplifting. Become part of our team/ family and guarantee yourself a better version of you!

I am thrilled to be a yearly member with Manta Ray Crossfit and Fitness. The coaches are amazing, and everyone there is there to improve themselves and others. Terrific family. You should come in and take a look at the amazingness.

So grateful to be part of the Crossfit Manta Ray family! Coaches and members that care about you & your goals - personal attention at every corner. Great community!

Ive been here for almost 3 months now and have met awesome people. Evertone here is extremely supportive and motivating. The coaches keep you going and always strive for proper technique and skill development. Drop by and see what they have to offer. You WILL see results.

I am so happy to have found this place. I was a bit intimated to try Crossfit after not being active for a few years but, the coaches here are awesome and the community support is very inviting.

Crossfit Manta Ray was a great box to drop into. The coach, Sebastian, was welcoming and the workout was great. I would highly recommend to anyone thinking about dropping in if in the area and visiting.

What can I say love the place... Classes are awesome, lively, energetic and most of all you have fun while getting fit. The entire staff of coaches are fabulous!!!!

Best place to get nutrition plans, workouts that are for all levels and amazing coaches there to help you throughout your workouts, making sure you get the most from your workouts.

Been a member for almost 4 years and CMR is truly family! The support you get from the coaches and other members is AMAZING!! Ive met some great people since joining and I couldnt be happier!!!

This review is long overdue. I first heard of CrossFit Manta Ray through a Facebook ad for their 6-week challenge. I enjoyed myself so much that I joined the box after the challenge ended.At CMR, form and function are paramount. Exercises are scaled to meet you at your level and coaches are dedicated to making sure you’re moving safely and efficiently, even when classes are larger.CMR contains phenomenal staff and clientele. The environment is supportive and friendly and each coach is concerned with helping you reach your goals.I’ve really enjoyed my time here and I’m excited to see what my fitness future holds.

After one class I was HOOKED! I go to Crossfit Mantra Ray next door and love it so I wasnt really looking to workout more but wow, those classes are so fun, challenging and give you an amazing workout. I look forward to every class and Im meeting new amazing fitness friends, come in and sweat with us :)

This gym is truly a No judgement zone! I feel accepted and empowered by the coaches and fellow athletes. Friendly, knowledgeable staff.

So happy to have found Crossfit Manta Ray! Knowledgeable coaches, motivating atmosphere, great equipment, and wonderful community. All the tools to better your performance! Thanks CMR!

Best experience, great atmosphere and crew. The great results proof their experience and devotion to their customers.

I cannot speak highly enough about CMR. I joined their 6 Week Fitness Challenge in October and was immediately welcomed to the gym. The coaches are all very welcoming, knowledgeable, and helpful. The atmosphere there encourages everyone to be supportive and helpful to one another. It really is great. By following their 6 week program I was able to lose 23 pounds and 7.5% body fat. If you are thinking about joining a crossfit gym or doing the 6 Week Challenge, it is really a no brainer!!!

Been a member for 4 years. Great community, great coaches, found my home away from home. 5 plus stars, check it out, you wont regret it.

You will get excellent training from the coaches here. A great place to get fit and make new friends!

I’ve been to a few CrossFit gyms and CMR definitely exceeds all expectations for a CrossFit gym. The coaches are very knowledgeable, the people are amazing and THE WORKOUTS are great!!!! So happy to be apart of the CMR family!

Been with Crossfit Manta Ray for almost two years now and love it! Great coaches, facility and workouts! A family that gives me a little push to try harder and keep going!

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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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 want to thank Sebastian, Corey, and especially, John, for all the encouragement they gave us these last 6 wks., to help us get through the Crossfit Challenge!If it werent for them, I dont think I couldve or wouldve made it through. Losing 10 lbs and I went from almost 24% body fat down to 18% and gained 1 lb lean muscle mass(Amazing)Even though our workouts were with others at different levels of strength & most about 20 yrs younger, we were never left to feel like we couldnt keep up and they had adaptations to a couple of exercises I couldnt quite get my old body to do, with still strengthening my overall core.The high protien, low carb diet they gave us, never left us hungry after a meal and was fairly easy to prepare, without having a lot of additional cost to our grocery shopping.Everyone we met there was so nice and welcoming towards us it also was a big help having their support when I felt that I couldnt finish the 1000m row, they cheered me on and gave me the strength I needed to finish.I would definitely recommend Cross Fit Manta Ray to anyone of any age or ability to try this place out.THANK YOU, CMR Family--Janine

I purchased a Groupon and attended my first class this week. This was my first time doing crossfit and was a little nervous but I had a lot of fun. Our coach is very friendly and motivational during the workout. Would definitely recommend.

I hit a moment where I was finally ready to make a change in my diet, exercise, strength and weight. It ultimately was about being stronger. The rest fell into place. I came across Crossfit Manta Ray in my Facebook feed. I saw a trusted friend on their page. I was ready to step out of my comfort zone (more like jump into a different zone entirely). I made a commitment to them, but more importantly to ME. I fully participated in the 6 week challenge. Each day I went (nervous at first but totally open to the experience), I was welcomed and treated like part of the group each time. I felt I was part of the CMR family.The coaches are incredible, on many levels. Friendly, engaging, helpful, encouraging. They treat each person as an individual. Their skill level and teaching style is amazing to say the least.As a result of my 6 week challenge experience, both my husband and I joined the gym today. We are looking forward to this new part of fitness as well as lifestyle in our life.Many thanks from the bottom of my heart to each person at CMR. You have helped me change my life forever.

I can’t say enough how amazing this Crossfit gym is . The coaches are amazing and go above and beyond to help you, the members are so nice it’s like one big happy family . I’ll never leave Crossfit Manta Ray best ever ‘

Classes at Manta Ray Fitness are fun, exciting, challenging and always different. The coaches always greet you with a smile, push you thru a tuff workout and encourage you to do more then you thought you could do. This is what keeps me coming back for more classes!

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.

Great place to get healthy, superb staff and good energy.

Dropped in while in town. Great box & great coaching. Definitely worth a stop if your in the area.

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 hadnt 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.

I’ve been an athlete my entire life yet I have never felt so in tuned with my body as I have being here at CMR. I started out with the 6 week challenge and I was a little nervous since I stopped being active for a few years and really gained a lot of weight. I’ve always played sports and done HIIT training but nothing compared to CF. I came in with an open mind and really took it all in. Sebastian and Tommy really took their time teaching us the foundations of CF throughout the 6 weeks and starting off our workouts with a PVC pipe. They make sure that you understand the movements fully before you move onto weights.I’ve finished my 6 weeks and have been in regular classes for a little over a month. This box is truly a family. Everyone welcomes you with open arms and genuinely cares about you. All the coaches are super knowledgeable and really take their time studying your movements and making corrections if needed or adjusting the workout to your needs. My favorite thing about this box is that they focus on fundamentals and teach all athletes to listen to their bodies. It’s not about who can finish the WOD first or lift the most weight. Everyone is humble and there are all walks of life that come thru the doors. I’m getting stronger everyday with the help of the coaches teaching and pushing me and with the encouragement from the fellow athletes. I really never thought I would find a gym that I truly love going to and look forward to seeing everyone’s smiling face. I found my second home for sure.

Love love love love!!! Amazing CrossFit box with even more amazing coaches and team mates!! Wouldnt go anywhere else!!

I love everything about manta ray! The coaches, the classes, and the facility are all awesome!!

5 stars, review sent from iPhone X

My daughter and I are visiting Clearwater and have been doing drop-ins at CrossFit Manta Ray. The coaches are very friendly and welcoming, and the classes are excellent. The facility is spacious and well kept and they have all of the CrossFit equipment that you need. Be sure to check it out if youre in Clearwater and looking for a box to visit while youre here. I travel for business and have done drop ins all over the country. This one of the best that Ive visited.

I keep coming back for more. Whether you join the fitness side of the gym or the crossfit side, you are guarenteed to have an overall awesome workout with coaches who guide you, push you and make the workout both fun and challenging!

Visiting from Indiana and dropped in for a WOD. Great group of people, very welcoming!

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 youre new and encourage you to challenge yourself as you get stronger. Ive lost 15 pounds since I started 6 weeks ago and continue to see my body change in response to the challenging workouts. Im stronger and faster than Ive ever been and know theres 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!

Absolutely awesome Crossfit gym. Great coaches, great people!

I worked out at this box for a year and is where I started CrossFit. Results showed and made some great friends here. The coaching started off on point and they were helpful. As time progressed, I noticed I was not getting the same attention as when I started. When I noticed it seemed the coaches were more concerned about the new folks who signed up with Groupon and gave them attention to ensure they would sign a one year contract, or if not pay significantly more for month to month membership. When it came time for our renewal we had weighed the pros and cons and decided to stay as we made some great friends. One thing about CrossFit is the community. This helps many in the sports reach and exceed their goals. One day we were asked to come in to talk and were told we were not welcome back. It seems if you question the programming or coaches this will happen. I learned after leaving I was not the only one this happened to. Either way, CrossFit as a weigh to get in shape is great and with proper warm up, coaching and review anyone can be successful. Before you sign up with anyone, all boxes will offer you a chance to drop in and try it out. Please search many boxes. This is a commitment for your health and every place tailors their programming differently so find what works for you. Also, with so many boxes popping up, be sure the coaches are there for you, not themselves.

I moved to Clearwater in March and joined within the first week of living here. I didnt 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 wasnt nearly as motivated to workout, I wasnt sleeping as well at night and my diet was...well lets 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!

I love Manta Ray Fitness! Great community, great facility, great environment!

Great crossfit class for kids!

Great coaches, lots of variety, a true community!

Awesome place!

Awesome!

Awesome!!!
