This gym is exceptional. The owners and trainers Britney, Lauren and Jevon are extremely knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. There is a great mix of people and personalities and its a fun place to be. They have developed a sense of community and an amazing place to train.
Great gym with great people. Always get great 1 on 1 instruction. I have made significant progress in strength and technique since joining early in 2015.
Axis CrossFit is an amazing gym! I recommend this box to all athletes, from beginners to professionals, because you will be challenged to improve every time you attend a class. I started out as a feeble, out of shape, pathetic waste of space and air. I couldnt even perform a basic air squat properly. But, because of Axis stellar coaching, supportive community, and challenging programming, I was able to go from doing 0 proper air squats to 300 air squats no problem. I have become stronger and more confident than I ever thought possible. If you want to make a change for the better, this is the place to be!
Axis is great! I have been working out here since their beginning and I have to say I have benefitted greatly from my experience. I am lifting heavy weight safely and effectively and achieving goals like crazy! Before Crossfit, I couldnt run more than 2 blocks due to a knee injury; now I can run miles and no longer have pain. I set a personal goal to achieve pull-ups without assistance; I am now doing that!This box has helped me achieve my fitness goals and inspires me to set new ones. If you are afraid to try Crossfit, but always wanted to; I encourage you to try this box. Its unlike others I have been to. The classes are smaller and the coaching is phenomenal! If there are movements you are not comfortable with or if you are injured, just say so! Please know it can always be modified and the coaches will help you. I have been injured and they coached me through it and helped build strength to overcome the injury safely.Besides the challenging workouts and coaching, what I love most about Axis is the community of people that work out here. Everyone is helpful friendly, positive and encouraging. I look forward to seeing all of the members and consider them my fit-family.Come into Axis today! Try it-you will be glad you did!
Thanks Axis CrossFit! This was my 57th different CrossFit box Ive dropped in at and I was not disappointed. Ive been coaching for the past five years and in all my drop ins, Ive see a lot of really good gyms and a lot of not so great ones. Axis is one of the really good ones. Right away when I walked in, members were making me feel right at home, introducing themselves and showing me around. The coaching was on point too. I took a class with Britt and one with JeVon and both gave awesome cues and were attentive the whole time, so it wasnt a fluke. Because Im nosy, not only do I like to get coached but I also like to see how the coaches cue their own members and run their classes and I was really impressed. It wsa an awesome workout both days and an awesome experience. These coaches know their stuff. Ill definitely be back in next time Im in the Newport Beach area.
Ive jumped around to a bunch of different Crossfit gyms because of moving and Axis is the gym that makes me feel most at home. Not only do the coaches do an amazing job of welcoming you as you walk through the door, they genuinely care about each and every member.When I was moving from South OC to Costa Mesa I knew Id have to find a new Crossfit gym to go to (something I really wasnt looking forward to). But when I heard that Britt, Lauren and Jevon had just opened Axis I was beyond excited. I met Britt and Lauren in my gym in South County and loved them right away. Without even being my coaches they immediately stepped in and helped me with my Toes to Bar (a movement I had been trying to link together for a long time) and with just a couple pointers and a little encouragement, they got me to link them! I was so shocked.My improvements in Crossfit have only grown since joining Axis.Brittany, Jevon and Lauren are always helping me to get a new PR, nail a new movement and feel motivated to workout (this is a hard thing to do for me). Even on those days when I dont feel like working out (which are most days) or Im on my way home from work (instead of to the gym) and I think about my Axis family, I suddenly want to turn my car around and get my butt into the gym because I truly enjoy working out with the Axis coaches and my Axis Family.Go A-Team!!If youre thinking about joining a [Crossfit] gym and are hesitant about what the community will be like or even nervous because you are new to Crossfit, we want to see you at Axis. Theres really no better place!
The best gym in Costa Mesa!
