The coaches and members could not be any nicer. You are always welcomed with lots of smiles.They do a great job making sure everyone understands the movements and workouts. The workout space is amazing-plenty of room and equipment-especially during this wacky Covid time.

I started coming to Kaiju in May 2018. I had turned 39 and was up to 260 pounds (at 5’11’’). I realized I needed to make a change, but had never been a gym person. I started out taking a class at a more trendy “boxing themed” workout establishment and wasn’t impressed.I tried Kaiju a couple days later and was hooked after the first class. It was a workout that made sense, involved actual weight lifting to build strength, and coaches were taking deliberate care to make sure I understood the fundamentals of the movements.I never had thought before that I would be doing CrossFit, but here I am now with no plan of stopping.The coaches are all fantastic and are engaged throughout the workout programs and are watching and coaching your progress.The community of people is great and welcoming. There is no reason to be intimidated, everyone there wants to help everyone get stronger/faster/fitter.Since joining my weight has come down, and my strength and stamina have gone way up. I am in better shape now at 40 than I was through my 30s.

Had my first work out this morning with BY and absolutely enjoyed every second. I felt welcomed as soon as I walked through the door. If I performed a movement wrong I was corrected without judgment. Pricing is competitive and the atmosphere is great. Id definitely recommend.

I was nervous at first to start training at a new box, especially being surrounded by adults, but everyone immediately made me feel welcome and soon enough they became like my second family. Kaiju is my home & overall a great facility. At Kaiju you aren’t just another member, you’re truly known. :)

Fantastic place for people at all levels. I walked in with no Cross-fit experience and was welcomed with excellent coaching, orientation, and no pressure or judgment (from coaches or members!). The people are great and BY, the gym owner, has been excellent at communicating during the health crisis. Highly recommend!

I have been to other Crossfit gyms and I can promise you Kaiju is one of the best in the Carolinas. My time spent at Kaiju has made a profound positive impact on my life both physically and emotionally! Brian Yeung and the entire coaching staff are top notch in every way. Not only are they incredible athletes, but are personable and know how to uniquely coach every member and help them break through limits! The culture at Kaiju is awesome: inclusive, friendly, supportive, competitive, and much more. The gym itself is always clean and the barbells, weights, machines, and other equipment is the highest of quality. Kaiju will always receive my highest of recommendations to ANYONE even remotely curious about starting Crossfit - go for it and youll never look back!

I can’t say enough good things about CrossFit Kaiju. I’ve been at Kaiju for just over 2 months now. I started out doing 3x a week but after my first month, I was ready and excited to start going more frequently. The workouts are fun and challenging. There are also a variety of different classes focusing on body weight movements, endurance, Olympic lifting and strongman in addition to the standard CrossFit classes. The coaching staff is friendly and very knowledgeable. They do an exceptional job of scaling the weights and movements to each individual’s abilities. The members are all really welcoming and encouraging. Kaiju makes the whole idea of CrossFit, which can be intimidating, very approachable. If you are looking for a gym, I highly recommend giving Kaiju a try. You won’t regret it.

I have had the opportunity to attend about a half dozen Crossfit gyms over the last 5 years. Crossfit Kaiju is the best hands down! From coaching to equipment to programming to facilities. Not in the best shape when I joined, I started out with the Re-boot class for a few months until I felt ready to jump into a standard CF class. With encouragement from coaches and other members, it has been a great experience and benefit to me both physically and mentally.

Ive been a member at CrossFit Kaiju for more than 3 1/2 years, and have experienced my best physical fitness at a time when a lot of my peers are slowing down. Before I joined CrossFit intimidated me, but Brian and staff are personable and foster a family-oriented environment with an emphasis on safety and technique. Whether youre new to working out or a veteran trying to take your training to the next level CrossFit Kaiju is a great place to workout. I highly recommend it!

I’ve been an active athlete at CrossFit Kaiju with Steve Adams and his dedicated group of coaches since January 2, 2018. I’m 43 years old and was overweight and unmotivated before joining and I’m so glad that I did! in 16 short weeks I’ve lost 30lbs and added a significant amount of muscle just by showing up and completing the workout of the day 5 days a week.Did I mention Kaiju has great coaches? They are hands on and proactive to make sure everyone is safe and using the proper techniques. All of the coaches are knowledgeable, patient and they care about your progression! So refreshing!! They have fun and challenging workouts that will push people of every level and they even have a program to help you with diet and nutrition.Also, the community is fantastic, the athletes are welcoming and supportive, always encouraging each other to complete workouts and smash personal goals!If youre looking to try CrossFit for the first time or you are an active athlete looking for a new box, you have to check out Kaiju! Best of luck with your fitness goals!!

Ive only had the chance to train with the good people at Kaiju in the summers. As a seasonal member, I am impressed by how many people remember and welcome me back. Further, I like how the community adds new members and yet maintains a welcoming, competitive environment. The place has only gotten better since I started training there. As far as the programming goes, I see unbelievable gains in the summer. Whether Im going 3 or 5 days a week, I find the programming works really well for me in optimizing performance and minimizing injury.

The staff and members at CrossFit Kaiju are great! Ive actually been a member at another local gym in Charlotte for 5+ years and I have been dropping in at CF Kaiju this year due to my schedule. Hands down, Steve and his staff are awesome, especially with allowing me to workout on my own during their class times. I always want to make sure that their members and classes come first and am cognizant of what area to workout in while their classes are in session. Just from observing their classes, you can tell they take pride in making sure everyone is getting a good workout and moving well. Of course, their members are always welcoming and supportive and its an all around great community to be in. Thanks CF Kaiju for the hospitality! I would highly recommend you all!

I love CrossFit Kaiju!!! Im a newer member but from day 1 it certainly didnt feel that way. I was welcomed by eager coaches willing to teach that have taken a genuine interest in my development. They teach proper form and safe technique and they will challenge you to dig deeper with every class. This is a great place to train with passionate people and push yourself beyond what you might think is possible!

Highly Recommended !!Joined in mid June of 2014 and I have been addicted to this cross fit family every since! Its been something that Ive always wanted to try after going from a personal trainer. I love all of the coaches that the owner Steve picked, every one has an encouraging, supporting, & motivating attitude. Steve and the coaching staff are all very attentive to each member and their needs, you get the feel of a personal training setting in an group workout! The consistent attention to technique/form from the knowledgeable staff helped me to strengthen and improve on my challenges!Im thankful to have my first experience here!! I wouldnt replace it for another:)

I travel often for work and whenever I’m in the Charlotte or Matthews area I always get my workouts in at Kaiju. Steve, BY, and all the other trainers are experts; no matter your level (novice - pro) they will ensure you have a great workout. The gym itself is state of the art, and everyone is welcoming, encouraging, and personable. Couldn’t recommend them any higher. Check them out!

Review №35

Ive been here for three months now, and I already have to buy new pants and a new belt. Steve, Brian and the other coaches are sticklers for form, which is important for rookies like me. They also seem to know intuitively when to push you to work harder, and when you should take a breather. Its a great atmosphere, good for beginners as well as seasoned competitors. You get lots of individual attention from the coaches to help you with form and technique. Ive had several of the other hardcore members stop their workouts to encourage me or cheer me on when I was struggling. Id definitely recommend it.

Review №36

I love everything about Kaiju. Every workout is easily tailored to any fitness level, so you can start from nothing or be a professional and never outgrow this gym. Ive never felt out of place; all of the coaches truly show an interest in my growth without demeaning my current (lack of) skill. Its an environment where you feel like part of the team, while constantly reaching your own personal records. I cant recommend it enough!

CrossFit Kaiju is an awesome place to work out, with top of the line equipment in a very large facility. Being new to CrossFit, I was hesitant at first, but Steve Adams (owner/head coach) as well as all the other coaches made me feel very comfortable. They are all very knowledgeable and help you understand form and technique, as well as allow you to go at your own pace, but push and encourage you at the same time. In the few months Ive been at working out I have seen noticeable improvement. I look forward to achieving many more fitness goals at CrossFit Kaiju.

I have been a member of the community for almost two years now. I say community, as it is not only a great facility to workout and get into a healthy lifestyle (exercise and diet), but also a community where you are continually encourage by coaches and fellow members. It is great to be in my 40s and in the best shape of my life. Give Brian (BY) a call and start the path to a healthy lifestyle.

Review №41

As a newcomer to cross fit, I walked in the door at Kaiju and was hooked from the start. All of the coaches are extremely friendly and experts in their subject matter. They are able to demonstrate each exercise with proper form, or scale the workouts down to the individuals ability level. If you cant perform an exercise due to physical limitations they will adapt the exercise or find an alternative for you to perform. The atmosphere is very friendly. They have cultivated a great community amongst the members. There are also several options for classes that are variations of your typical cross fit class. All in all Crossfit Kaiju is a great place to go.

I have been attending CF Kaiju for a little over a year now. My wife convinced me to try it. I hated working out but tried it for her. I was hooked day one. The coaches remember your name, get to know where you are in your fitness journey, are incredibly knowledgeable, and are always going above and beyond to make fitness fun while still pushing me to be the best version of myself. CF Kaiju has shown me how awesome CrossFit is, but even if I could attend a different gym I wouldnt - this place is the best!

The staff is great, the location is ideal and the community is amazing! After giving all sorts of gyms and programs a try I have been hooked for almost a year now at Kaiju. My normal New Years Resolution routine usually ended after a few months. That is no longer the case. The variety and support at Kaiju has me as committed as ever. If you are interested in getting in shape and you are thinking about CrossFit then reach out to Steve and the staff at CrossFit Kaiju. Who knows he might even give you a red shirt!

My wife and I have been members for about 6 months now. We went in as skeptical participants because it was our first time using the gym in a long time.

When I decided to give CrossFit a try I literally looked at a map and chose the closest one to my house which is CrossFit Kaiju. I wasnt sure what to expect but have been super impressed with this gym. From the get go all the coaches have been encouraging and have a huge emphasis on form and doing exercises the correct way. The gym has a neighborhood feel and a solid class schedule. Most of the time it feels like I have a personal trainer there with me during class. I would recommend anyone regardless of age or skill level to give CrossFit Kaiju a try.

Excellent attention to detail, great group of trainers (especially for people like me that have never done Cross Fit). New equipment, and a safe 1 mile loop conveniently right out the front door. For a lot of gyms its hard to get that cardio in, safely. No worries here! Showers are clean and big, great lunch workout gym.

Excellent CF box!!! Top of the line equipment (Rogue), nicest bathrooms with showers, clean facility, awesome Coaches and training. Ive been working out there since January 2014. Been constantly progressing and hitting PRs and developing skills. If you are in the Charlotte and surrounding areas, I highly recommend stopping by for a workout.Addition as of 3/6/16:Clean facility, top of the line equipment, great coaching staff that knows when to push you and when to throttle back when you need to work on your weaknesses. There is always a scaling for beginners and intermediates. The community there is great and supportive. Highly recommended to stop by for a class to get an idea how things work, or if you are in from out of town, for a drop in class.

This Box is fantastic. The facilities themselves are top notch, and the coaches are both friendly and dedicated to each members goals. There is a really awesome family vibe here at Kaiju as many of the members have been there for a long time, yet they are very inclusive with new members. I came into crossfit with virtually no workout experience and immediately felt accepted and encouraged by Steve and all the other coaches / members. Id highly recommend this box to both newbies and seasoned cross fitters alike.

When I decided to try out CF, I was nervous and worried that I would not be able to do it. Steve Adams was super welcoming from the start and has continued to be encouraging and helpful. I can say 100% that what convinced me to become a member was his help and friendliness. I have gone to other CF boxes where the owners and coaches are stand offish and unapproachable. The coaches here have all been welcoming, encouraging, and give me the extra push the I need. Thanks guys!

I started doing Crossfit here 6 months ago when I turned 46. I could not have been any more out of shape or less athletic. The coaches here are fantastic about scaling things to your ability and teaching you the right way to do things. I had some major back issues and they worked around those and always had an adjustment for me if I couldnt do something. 6 months later, the back issues are non existent, Im down 13 pounds and feel great. Great coaches, great atmosphere, great people, great box!

Review №59

Great Crossfit class! I started in 2016, that is, after visiting and trying out other classes in the area. I felt KAIJU was a better fit for me being I was a newcomer to Crossfit. My reasoning centered around the ongoing guidance given by the instructor(s) AFTER the whiteboard session and the instructions given are aptly demonstrated by the instructor(s).This ongoing guidance is not in the form of handholding or annoying hovering by the instructor(s) but rather pro tips throughout the movements, as needed, in order to tweak your form to prevent misuse or overuse injury. To me, that, in and of itself is worth its weight in gold!As I said earlier, I was a newcomer to Crossfit. So early on, I routinely finished dead last in the workout of the day (WOD). To which, was to be expected, due to lifes happenstance of intermittent periods of plain old inactivity. But nowadays, I feel pretty good about how Ive since progressed. I am now counted as one of the strongest in the KAIJU class…Ok!...ok! Maybe on certain movements and lIfts but nonetheless good...solid...quantifiable progress!We regularly encourage and push each other to get to done, throughout the workouts. There is also an unofficial KAIJU run club, that happens after the WOD, if thats your thing. See you at the Whiteboard!

Review №73

As a person with a sedentary lifestyle who loves traveling, tailgating, food and quality beer, I had packed on the pounds over the years with relative ease. From time to time, I tried a number of methods to shape up but I would get bored or other important demands/excuses would deter me from being consistent. Looking to try something new (again), I joined CF Kaiju in January 2014 and believe I have found what works for me. The owner and coaches are down to earth professionals who are careful to explain and walk you through each movement to ensure proper technique. As a first timer this eases the tension from nervousness, since basically you have no clue what you are doing. As you become comfortable with your technique over time, the coaches help push you beyond your self-imposed boundaries. Unlike other gyms, you are actually interactive with everyone and the community atmosphere is conducive from first timers (me) to elite athletes (not me). Ive met great people who push me when I am ready to quit. At the end of the day, if you want to have undeniable results, you’re going to have to work for it. It’s not easy, but it is achievable and this is the place that is helping me meet and exceed my goals.

Review №74

Im a female over 50 and I never thought I would be able to do Crossfit. Ive belong to other gyms and either felt intimidated, wasnt challenged enough, or I was just confused and didnt utilize the equipment properly.Plus, I felt lost in the crowd. When I started, I can barely do a push up and my squats were a joke. Stephanie is super encouraging and has helped me improve on my technique and building stamina. They also encourage eating Paleo, which I love. I lost 6 pounds in 5 weeks, lost inches and have never felt stronger and I have so much more energy. I really look forward to working out! If you think youre too old, or in poor physical shape, trust me, you can change it. and Steve and the team will give you all the help youll need.

I honestly didnt think I was going to feel comfortable at crossfit. My husband dragged me here and I told him Id give it a shot fully intending to hate every single minute of it. I have had bad experiences at other gyms and felt uncomfortable in other atmospheres, but that has never been the case here. I came in as someone who hadnt significantly worked out in over a year. The coaches always made sure I knew what I was doing and offer help when they see if I could be doing something differently. I ultimately joined to lose some weight, but I gained a confidence that I didnt know existed.

When I joined Kaiju, I didnt even really know what crossfit was. Kaiju is an amazing place along with its teachers and members. You always feel welcomed and encouraged regardless of your skill level. Everyone is very supportive. Its a great group of people to get in shape with and a second family to get to know. I am almost 54 years old and cannot thank Steve Adams, Brian Yeung and the rest of the team enough for what theyve done for me. I am in the best shape Ive been in for a long time.

The training environment among the members is upbeat, competitive and supportive. Id definitely recommend CFK to those interested in starting up with a CrossFit program.

I have always had a gym membership or did many types of workouts (insanity, p90x, Zumba, etc). Nothing compares to this. Nothing!!! Stop driving past this place, and just go in one day like I did. Its not as intimidating as people led me to believe. The owner and staff are nice, the people are nice (and hot), there arent any mirrors in the place (yay), everyone is sweating and working hard so no one is judging, you end up noticing results quickly, and soon YOU feel confident, strong, and look good. Just do it already. I told a couple of friends, and they have joined and had the same experience, and they feel and look so much better.

Ive been doing Crossfit for going on 7 years now and have coached at several gyms in town over the past 5 years. Ive been working out at Crossfit Kaiju over the past year and am impressed with the environment, cleanliness, community, programming and coaching. The gym is well run, professional and fun. I see myself staying here at Kaiju indefinitely.

I’ve been looking for a gym to drop into in the Charlotte area since my sister moved there a few years ago and I have found a new home! The members of Kaiju are very welcoming, encouraging and made me feel right at home :)

Steve Adams is amazing. He has been working with me and my boyfriend over the past three months on a personal training level and as much as I complain he still shows up. Results are there. I had never done crossfit prior and he has helped me every step of the way.

I am not from Charlotte, I stay on the road several months out of the year. Cross fit Kaiju feels like home every time I enter. Steve and His staff are very knowledgeable and produce a challenging program.

From the moment I visited I knew I would love this place. First and foremost the coaching was and continues to be outstanding. At any given time there were multiple coaches on deck willing to lend their knowledge and expertise to assist me in technique. The coaches have been so encouraging helpful, upbeat and genuine in their coaching. Aside from the coaching, I love the various times available for classes. Literally morning, NOON, and night !! This crossfit box also offers a variety of type of classes from the standard crossfit format to endurance focused classes or gymnastic focused, Olympic lifting, and even kids. Its truly a great positive atmosphere and a well run crossfit operation.
