If you’re considering joining a gym, look no further, ambush has a great atmosphere, it’s clean and organized, the programming is phenomenal and the the coaches and owner are amazing, if it’s your first time joining cross training or just changing gyms, this is the place for you.

A new year, but the consistency and continuous upgrades at this box to accommodate members happiness and success is unmatched by other gyms. As a member of Ambush Miami, I regularly enjoy a sense of community created by caring owners and knowledgeable coaches who collaborate with members to meet individual needs and goals. The facility and equipment is impeccably maintained to ensure that members feel safe, comfortable, and have the tools they need readily available to complete workouts. On those days that I question whether or not I should work out because Im not feeling up to it, I think about how I feel when Im at Ambush and after a workout there, and Im inspired to go. An hour at Ambush is all I need to feel accomplished - mind, body, and soul. Cheers to 2021 and another year at Ambush!

Dropped in for 5 classes here while visiting family in Miami. This is a great Crossfit box with lots of great equipment. The other members were very nice and inclusive. The best part about our time there, however, was the coach Alberto. He was so good that we specifically signed up for only his classes the entire time. He really made you feel confident in the movements and was more than willing to scale things down to accommodate everyone. I wish we had him at our own box in Idaho.The only bummer was the lack of shirts. Both my wife and I wanted to get one, but because of the pandemic theyve had problems getting them made, which isnt their fault.If youre in Miami, check these guys out!

100% one of the best CrossFit experiences Ive had. was in Miami for the weekend and Ambush Miami was the first Box to reply back to me answering my COVID-19 concerns about class booking for visitors. Birkleigh went above and beyond to ensure I found the box ok, had the link to book my class and even followed up about my experience post WOD. Once at the Box .. WOW just WOW they had everything you needed to do any WOD and much more, and the coaching was great, the coach (Fully bilingual Eng/Span) introduced himself and explained the WOD and modifications and walked around watching us to make sure our form was good. Everyone was very friendly and I will definitely come back 100% RECOMMEND Ambush Miami!

Fitness is more than just exercise; it is a culture - a lifestyle. CrossFit Ambush recognizes this and creates and nurtures this idea more than any box Ive ever visited or joined. Daily, the box delivers way beyond the expected and goes far beyond the norm: a physical space that is impeccably maintained and consistently clean and organized, abundant equipment that is utilized regularly for training and workouts, a caring, encouraging, and supportive environment where friendships are easily formed, coaches who are well trained and personable, and a program that is thoughtfully planned, purposeful, and varied, and is executed with superior guidance and instruction to be mindful of safety and success with its specific strength and conditioning goals. This all begins with and is evidenced daily by the owners of CrossFit Ambush who make it humbly apparent that they are invested in every aspect of members health, happiness, and overall success - inside and outside of the box.From my first visit to CrossFit Ambush when I was given a comprehensive tour of the box, its equipment, and explained its philosophy, I felt at home and fully welcomed into this fitness family. And throughout my first 6 weeks as a member, the health benefits Ive enjoyed - both body and mind - far exceed the benefits I gained after years of membership at numerous boxes previously - boxes that are outstanding in their own right. But for CrossFit Ambush, five stars just isnt enough!

I had always been hesitant of Crossfit in general... not being such a fit person and seeing everyone so ripped, but I decided to try it out. I have to say the my experience has been amazing! There are people of all physical types being motivated to do the work at their own pace and just work to get better. The coaches are super fun and very knowledgeable. We always take the first few minutes to run over on what we are doing and why, then we do a few practice rounds. It has really become a great community including social events like friends-giving and a couple of social outings which is cool for me being new to Miami. They have various hours of classes which is amazing since my schedule is sometimes not set in stone. The owners are always there pumping everyone up and making sure the areas are clean and taken care of... that says a lot!

It is not the perfect place in the perfect location, but the owner and the staff compensate that. I have been there for almost 3 weeks, the Coach take consideration for beginners if you are new into this, they have a friendly environment. About the classes, they are at 6 am,7 am and 8 am, 12 m, and again at 4:30 p.m, 5:30 p.m, 6:30 p.m and 7:30 p.m, the price it is around $150-$160 with unlimited classes and access to the gym, they also offered 3 days of trial. If you want to cancel no hidden fees. The parking it is in the street no need to pay.

This gym is top notch and the owners are great. They will help you through all the movements regardless of your experience with Cross fit. I have been coming almost 2 months and I have lost 7 lbs. and I feel great. The best part besides the workouts is all the members act like we are one big family, everyone helps each other out. If you are thinking about Cross fit, you should check this out gym. They offer a free introduction class so there is nothing to lose. I took the free class and I have not looked back since. Give it a try, I guarantee you will not be sorry.

If working out and enjoying it is what you are looking for this is definitely the place to try. The owners and the members are so welcoming they all encourage you to push yourself to get results. if you think you are not able to do a workout they will work with you or modify your workout to accommodate your needs so that you see results. These coaches actually care about your safety which is awesome compared to other cross fit facilities. I found this gym based on its Google reviews they are all very accurate reviews. The equipment at this box are better than your standard gym equipment. I could say so much more about this box. I love attending Ambush and the progress that I have made working out here is amazing.

My husband and I are brand new to Cross Fit. We have been going for a little over a month. We were looking for something different to help get us back in shape. We both turned 41 this year and have joined gyms in the past, etc. Cross Fit Ambush is close to our house so we checked it out. Scared to death, we walked in and have been going back ever since. The facility is incredibly nice and very clean. The equipment is all brand new. Birkleigh is amazing! She is extremely knowledgeable, motivating and truly cares about their members. It might sound corny but it really is a community Everyone is so nice and encouraging no matter how advanced or experienced. They will cheer you on. The coaches help you through all the workouts and we go at our own pace. Whether new to Cross Fit or not, we would definitely recommend Cross Fit Ambush! :-)

This is my first time ever doing CrossFit. As a runner, I wanted to be able to improve my overall fitness level and try something that is outside of my comfort zone. From the moment I walked in I was welcomed. The coaches have been nothing but supportive and really helpful from the first class on. I am so happy I made the decision to join!

Very clean, a lot of great equipment, coaches are great and do not push you beyond what you can do at the moment, they make sure you get the form properly before anything else. Been 2 weeks and its my first time ever doing cross fit, the experience is awesome and Im starting to feel better and stronger every time I go. The price is also very good compared to other cross fit gyms, you will not regret it.

I started going to CrossFit Ambush about a year ago and it has been the best decision I have made. From day one I was welcomed and felt like I belonged. The coaches at Ambush are excellent, they work with you on your weaknesses and celebrate every accomplishment, they motivate and guide you to work to your potential and trust and believe in yourself. I have PRed most of my lifts and am exited to see more to come. They have top of the line equipment, different programs that will fit to your needs. Love my Ambush family.Its my happy place!!!!!MY SECOND HOME!!!!!

I have been coming to CrossFit Ambush for several months now, and I do no think you can find another gym that has such nice equipment, great coaches and friendly members. The coaches really create a fun atmosphere, and they give a lot of one-on-one instruction to make sure you are doing the movements correctly and to your ability level. Best part is that they have air conditioning!!!! That is not common with CrossFit boxes. At first I was intimidated by CrossFit, but the coaches here make sure to adjust the workouts for each level of fitness. I would definitely recommend this gym to anyone in the area.

Review №23

I’m new to CrossFit and have been in dire need of a consistent exercise routine that both challenged me and motivated me to work out. The thought of joining a “Box” was intimidating. However, the moment I walked into the CrossFit Ambush facility it was apparent that there was nothing to be fearful of. The Box may only be a few weeks old, but the members seem as though they have known each other for years. Truly, I had nothing to be scared of. I was received immediately with open arms from people of all backgrounds, shapes, ages and sizes. For once I felt like I had walked into a gym where people weren’t trying to be better than one another. The overall atmosphere sends the message that “we’re all in this together”, a culture that is definitely growing from the influence and leadership of owners Birkleigh Dawn & Chris Walters. They are both kind, professional and incredibly dedicated. The facility is spotless and first-class. Everything is brand new but it’s the atmosphere that got my membership after my first intro session. The Box is lead by a solid team and will no doubt become very popular in Coral Springs very soon. I’ve only attended three sessions and I couldn’t be happier. Finally after months of no motivation I find myself looking forward to exercising and getting healthy. Every dollar spent on my membership is worth every last cent.

I have had an amazing experience at this crossfit box. I came in not very physically fit and have made more progress here than anything else I have tried in the past. The workout are all challenging but gives a great feeling of accomplishments. The coaches are great and are willing to work with you. I have no rhythm so I thought I was going to have a tough time but they are patient and want you to do the movements correctly for maximum results. Every coach in there is great. If your looking for a great workout with great people, THIS IS THE PLACE!

Review №26

I have been coming to Ambush for about 2 months. I have had a personal trainer in the past, and this is no comparison. It is a family and the seasoned team members are very helpful. There is always encouragement from the coaches to the team members. They always make sure that you are making the right movement and if needed modification to you reach to the higher level. I have never been to a cross fit class, and you are encourage to trail for several days before you sign up. The commitment is not done on an impulse, as most gyms. Ambush is friendly, clean, kid friendly, and attentive to your goals.

Review №27

I started at Ambush about 8 months ago, and it was the best decision I could have made for myself. I am 5 10 and weighed 230 lbs when I first started and hated the way I felt and looked. I knew it was time for a change and a friend of mine found Ambush and we decided to check it out together. I was always athletic when I was younger, but life happened and so did getting overweight and out of shape. I have 2 kids and decided it was time to get healthy so I could keep up with them.When I first walked into Ambush I noticed that the gym was clean and had all top of the line equipment. The coaching staff welcomed me openly for my first beginners class of 4 where they taught me the basics of the various movements of Crossfit. They were adamant about us having correct form to avoid any injuries as we progressed.Since then I have competed in my first Team competition at the Deer Games, dropped over 40 lbs and couldnt be happier. I have made incredible relationships with my teammates and never feel out of place. Everyone pushes one another to do better and be better and it is very much a community. I cant thank Ambush, my teammates and the coaches enough for giving me a new outlook for my life. I can now feel confident in myself and know that I can keep up with my boys as they continue to grow. I cant wait to see what the future holds for me. This place has changed my life.

I dropped into CrossFit Ambush while traveling for work and it is by far the most state-of-the-art CrossFit Ive been to in all of my travels. They had everything from multiple types of bars (Axel, womens, bars Ive never seen before) to countless rowers and bikes. Everyone in the class was so welcoming and friendly. Coach Birkleigh reviewed all of the movements before beginning accompanied by a proper warm up and coached us through the workout until the last second. Emphasis was placed on cleaning bars and equipment post workout to keep the gym in the same pristine condition. I will definitely be back if Im in the area again!

This has been the first time Ive tried CrossFit and I honestly fell in love. Not only do I enjoy working out but I look forward to going to the box every day. The coaches are amazing, always cheering you on and wanting you to do better and the athletes are so nice and friendly. I feel at home when Im at Ambush because everyone makes you feel so welcomed since the very beginning. The equipment is the best out there and the box owners are always getting us new toys so we can have the best to workout with, they are always wanting us to improve. Come check out CrossFit Ambush, you wont regret it!

Many people would say its too expensive and ect, but its an experience I fell in love with in 2 weeks so far. Felt welcomed the first day I walked as a family member and everyone has the same goal as yourself and thats to become a better person Not only physically but mentally also. Its better than staring in a mirror at a gym lifting weights by yourself when you have awesome coaches pushing you to reach your goal. Trust its one of the best decisions I made in my life

I came to CrossFit Ambush while visiting my family in Parkland. It was such a great experience! The minute my brother and me walked in we were welcomed and made to feel at home. The facility is very clean with brand new equipment. Birkleigh is an amazing coach with a lot of energy. She is knowledgeable and motivating. I have visited other boxes before while traveling, but have never felt so comfortable right off the bat. Whatever your fitness level you will love this box!

Im very new to crossfit, I was always intimidated on getting into it because of how challenging it seemed but I had the opportunity to walk into Ambush and it changed my perspective on it all. Im very thankful for the coaches and owners of Ambush because they really took time to help me get the hang of all the workouts and challenges.They are very intentional and caring to everyone that walks through their doors. I would highly recommend Ambush to anyone that is thinking of or simply wanting to get into crossfit, you will learn everything you need to learn to reach any goals you might have and will absolutely love the culture they have created there.

The environment in the box is amazing!! The coaches here are great--knowledgeable, good-natured, balancing safety and intensity. Instructors get to know your name and your strengths and weaknesses. Owners are committed to quality equipment. Coaches will keep you motivated encouraging and they will make a fun place to workout. You can be out of shape and have zero experience with lifting weights and it really doesnt matter. They will teach you everything you need to know.

Crossfit has become a life saver for me, started around two months ago and the change has been radical from my health to my ability to focus more at work (lost 25 pounds!!!). I am glad i came across this training facility full of great and friendly people, the equipment is very well maintained and everything is kept clean which is very important to me. I recommend this cross-fit facility to anyone interested in achieving a healthy lifestyle

Not just for top athletes! I am a mom of 4 young children who wanted to get back into shape. The children had taken over my body in my 20s, now its MY turn! My husband found this gym for me, and to be honest I was scared. I thought it would be overwhelming and way too hard, since it had been years since my last work out. I was SO wrong! The staff here puts health and safety FIRST, before just slamming weights on a bar. Youre under constant supervision to make sure all work outs are done in proper form and they motivate you to keep going. Even though Ive only been coming for a short time I already can feel and see the strength increase in my body. This once weak mom of 4 who HATED to workout, out has been obsessed with going to the gym at least 5 times a week. Thank you to Crossfit Ambush for not only an increase to my health, but also to the family-like friendships that have started to form.

Super new! Equipment all shiny! Birkleigh is very kind and offers great coaching encouragement! Drop-in price is standard like many drop-in boxes I’ve been to ($10-$20 avg). 4/5, no shower - though I didn’t need one, it helps after the morning workout for some.I think cubby-holes work better for box goers personal belongings (first box I’ve been that didn’t have a stack. AMBUSH did have baskets available that worked out fine). Will go back when in town!

My background is of combat & mixed martial arts where I am used to the sweat, hard work and discipline which has defined my dedication to the art. After my 1st experience at Ambush Cross Fit, I can honestly say that this is a fresh and very different challenge for me, given the same dedication and discipline that I will bring to it. While I’ve lightly trained with equipment in the past, I enjoyed the very clean environment, attention to physical safety given with each person and the equipment they are using, and the serious breakdown of each move for their own body mechanics. Every routine can be altered to your own physical body challenges, but there is no sacrifice of the intensity. I do feel new muscles that ache that I’ve forgotten I’ve had. I do plan on incorporating my Ambush Cross Fit strength together with martial arts real soon as I feel the body definition will definitely be a huge improvement.Bring on the challenge and let’s sweat together

Crossfit Ambush is quickly becoming the place to be in South Miami. Chris and Birk have developed an amazing establishment that is second to none in the area. You wont find two owners who genuinely care about and love their members more than those two and I am blessed to say that I have had the pleasure of getting to know them. If youre in the area, and you are looking for a place to get a great sweat with new state-of-the-art equipment and push yourself to the max, Crossfit Ambush is the place to go!!

If I could give 10 stars, I would! I was living around the corner and had watched a recent documentary on fitness on netflix, which ended up being ALL CrossFit. Was always aprehensive due to all the injury stories I had heard. After watching the documentary I was super intrigued - a lot due to the community aspect they all spoke about. So - when I got to Miami I sought a box out! Ambush showed up and was literally around the corner.I needed to learn, so was in their fundamentals class which they offered as a 3-day trial. Wow. Just wow. Everyone was SO welcoming and the energy was SO positive there. Literally felt at home within seconds. They were super attentive and clearly concerned about making sure everyone had the right postures, forms and information before dumping you into a class.The owners are AMAZING. Such positive spirits. I came to learn they had only been open for about 1 week when I got there! Had no idea! Super stoked because we were the very first fundamentals class out. WOO!I am now absolutely and 100% hooked. Couldnt recommend this experience more.

CF Ambush is an amazing box! Its hard not to be impressed when you walk in the door to an air conditioned facility with almost every type of equipment you could ever imagine. More importantly though, the owners and coaches at Ambush are super knowledgeable, professional, and inspiring. They are sensitive to all levels of fitness and work with you to continuously improve strength and confidence on your lifts and WODs. I cant forget to mention the community as well! Everyone here is super supportive, full of energy and positivity, and will be there to cheer you on through the most difficult workouts! Its truly a family atmosphere here without the cliqueyness youll see at other boxes. This is an awesome place, and I cant wait to see what the future holds!

In all honesty, prior to joining the Crossfit Ambush family I was the biggest crossfit critic out there. I didnt believe in the cult, and I was relatively intimidated by the interval training. After a few weeks here at Ambush, I can say without a shadow of a doubt that this box is different from most boxes. There is no cult - just a family. There is no intimidation factor - just coaches that strive to make you the best version of yourself. There is no secret - just show up everyday and your health will be taken to a new level within a month. Even if there isnt a class scheduled, I would show up just to hang out with this wonderful group of individuals. They can show you better than I can tell you, so show up, and I can guarantee youll keep coming back.

After one month coming to Crossfit Ambush I can finally say goodbye to my regular gym membership. People in this place feel like family. I’m already noticing changes not only in my body, but in my day to day, including a better sleep which I struggled with.Birkleigh Walters, Lalo Torres and Michelle are amazing coaches. Pushing you to get better and better while never forgetting your current level.Friends and coworkers keep asking what is it that I’m doing, so I invited them to join.Try it for a few days and you’ll be convinced. As one of my friends said to me a few days ago: “the best decision I’ve made this year”.

I started at Ambush well over a year ago now (16 months), and nothing has changed, minus additional programming and continuous growth within the gym. Since then I have competed 5 times, once being in Wodapalooza, the biggest fitness festival around next to the games. Without the support of my teammates and instruction from some of the best coaching around, I wouldnt be where I am today. I am thriving and continuing to break personal and athletic barriers I never knew were possible.On a gym note, they are some of the most giving owners I have met. They always make sure we have top of the line equipment and top not staff to coach us. They work with everyone for THEIR needs, and not theirs. They will tailor the programming to you and any injuries or limitations you have. They inspire a positive and fun environment and make working out exciting, rather than dreadful. They also plan outside the gym events for the members such as paddle boarding, expenses paid christmas parties, potlucks, themed ladies night workout and hangouts, field day, and so many other things. This is what the Crossfit community is about, they do it for the love of the sport, not just for income as other gyms I have been to in the past.Love this place, and encourage anyone to give it a chance :)

I have been doing Crossfit for about a year now looking for the perfect box to cater to my training needs and overall motivation to learn more about the sport. I definitely found that here. The regimen stays exciting, you learn new techniques constantly, and the people are awesome. Birkleigh has created an amazing environment; I finally found my home at Crossfit Ambush.

I have been a member for 4 months now and I absolutely love it here! From the equipment to the coaches to the community, its a world class facility. They are very hands on with the members. The coaches and members are always friendly and helpful. Any goal that you have they are willing to give you the extra work/help to help you get there. They instill a level of confidence in you that drives you to show up and do your absolute best to get better. For example: within my 1st month I signed up for my very first competition! Sounds crazy for a crossfit newbie with a very limited fitness/athletic background right? But I had a goal and they gave me the extra strength work, endurance WODs, tracks workouts and even an accountability partner. I cant say enough amazing things about this box. Oh, they even have a space designated for Olympic lifting only! I guess the biggest deal breaker when it comes to choosing a box is price....here at ambush you cant beat it! Hope this review helps someone like me who was pretty intimidated by CrossFit. It truly is for everyBODY :)

Crossfit Ambush is just amazing. I’ve never been an athlete and when I started crossfit at Ambush it was easy to feel welcomed and comfortable. The coaches all have a lot of patience and are all really good at keeping their members motivated whether you’re a novice or a veteran, everybody needs a push and they are there to give it. As coaches, it’s their job to coach but I can personally say the coaches at Ambush care for their members and that makes them even better at what they do. As for the facility, it’s always very clean and they have a lot of top notch equipment. I started crossfit with the goal of losing weight but I have continued with it because I love how strong I feel and I enjoy keeping track of my progress. I have been a member for 6 months as of today and it only took my first workout to realize I would grow to love this place and all that it has to offer.

One of the premier Crossfit gyms in South Florida. From coaching to programming to the facility itself, the owners here go above and beyond for their members. Whether you are an experienced crossfiter or just starting out this gym has everything you need and more. Everyone here is super welcoming and encouraging, so if youre in the area and are even alittle curious about the gym, you definitely need to stop in and check it out.

I have only been here two months and coming from a other crossfit box i love it and was the best change i have made. if your serious about crossfit or just someone who wants to get in shape, this is the place for you. The coaches and the members here are great. they welcome you like a part of the rhino family already. Crossfit Ambush is a must place you should check out.

I love crossfit ambush! I have always wanted to join crossfit but I was either to shy or didn’t think I could do it. My best friend introduced me to ambush and I’m so happy I went to their Saturday 9am free class. Once I walked in I knew this is the right place for me. The coaches are AMAZING and really care about the people that go. They will push you to your limit and then some. Birkleigh and Chris are amazing owners! I love going to the box and working out and meeting the people that I have! Joining this box is something you will not forget! DO IT!!

Coral Springs is SO lucky to finally have a gym like Crossfit Ambush. I have been to every kind of gym and have done every kind of workout, and without a doubt Crossfit Ambush is my favorite. The coaches really want you to succeed, as does the rest of the team. I instantly felt like a member of the family when I walked in, and I recommend Crossfit Ambush to anyone who is looking to get a good workout and be around some really awesome people. Keep up the good work! I look forward to seeing this facility continue to flourish!!

My review is different from others in that I am not a member of CrossFit Ambush. However I have been working with Chris and Birkleigh for some time and Ive seen the ambition and the dedication that drives them. Theyve overcome countless obstacles to bring their unique brand of CrossFit to Coral Springs, Fl, and Im proud to have been a part of the effort. I follow @CrossfitAmbush posts on instagram, and its inspiring to see every day people doing things they wouldve never imagined possible. Working with CrossFit Ambush has been a great pleasure and Im excited to see what the future holds.

The first member to greet me when I walked in for my trial class at Crossfit Ambush was a muscular, compact, and stocky athlete that despite his small size was quite large in personality. This athlete is a French Bulldog aptly named Rogue. They say dogs take after their owners so it was no surprise that Rogues mom, Coach Birk, shared his personality traits. The coaching is awesome, the atmosphere is fun, all of the athletes are exceptionally friendly, and the mascot is cute :)The owners of this box have spared no expense to give their athletes (even the ones they havent met yet) the best facility, equipment, and programming in the region. In a very short time, they have managed to create a family environment that is all-inclusive regardless of experience level, fitness level, or training goals…no cool kids clique here! Every athlete is greeted by name when he or she walks through the door and given the attention and instruction they need, exactly when they need it throughout the WOD.I have worked out at a few different boxes over the last several months searching for the perfect home. Im glad to say the search is over…CFA is it!!!

I first discovered Crossfit Ambush on the internet. I saw their website and was very impressed with their look and made it a point to visit, from the moment I entered Ambush I knew I wanted to be part of whatever it was they were doing there. The equipment they have is of the highest quality not to mention they have dozens of machines available, so there is no waiting around for equipment to become available which is an issue at many gyms. Once I actually started taking classes I was impressed with the coaching involvement, my experience with many gyms is minimal direction. Most places have coaches that are burned out from the previous classes and just give you a half hearted attempt at coaching, Not here!! Here I’ve been trained by Birkleigh, Chris and Joe and they take the time show you the proper movements before the exercises begin and are there to evaluate all participant during class. Coach Joe will take his time and break down all movements and still motivate you to push yourself even when you feel you can’t go any further. Basically I love this place and I’m lucky that they opened up in my neighborhood.

First things first, if you join this gym and for any reason you have to leave (as in discontinue membership) they do not welcome you back and speak badly of you behind your back. I watched this happen to countless members and felt like this was an extremely unprofessional way to run a business. This gym is all about the money and when they dont get what they want, youre dead to them.I considered these people my friends, closer than friends, practically family to me. So when I decided that after almost two years of being a LOYAL member to Ambush I wanted to leave to pursue my olympic lifting goals, I was beyond shocked at the way I was treated. I thought my exit conversation went well, that there was no hard feelings and then next thing I know the owners blocked me on their personal facebook accounts and removed me from all of their social media elsewhere (as well as the @crossfitambush instagram page and other multiple accounts that they run). I thought - wow, what did I do to deserve that?Ambush was a great place for me to thrive, when I first started in July of 2014. However I quickly discovered that this was a place where favorites were chosen. Not only that, but I thought the crossfit community was supposed to be a kind one. I wont go into detail here, but they know what theyve said and done. I no longer wanted to be somewhere full of drama and hatred, as my goals were to become a better athlete. I have no intention of ever stepping foot in that facility ever again.

I train primarily for bodybuilding but was looking to try out crossfit to add some variety to my training regimen. I was personally invited to try out crossfit ambush by one of the gyms owners and graciously accepted the offer. I was extremely impressed by the facility and all of the equipment they had, and I had a great first workout there. I loved the atmosphere and sense of camaraderie that crossfit is so well known for. I explained to the owner that I was very interested in joining but that I was only looking to attend a WOD once a week (4 times per month) as a supplement to my training. I asked if there was any kind of deal that would accommodate what I was looking for, since the standard unlimited membership is $135+. I was told that there was no way they could accommodate me. When I told them I could not possibly afford to pay that to only come once a week, I was told to ask my parents to buy it for me (? Im a grown woman) which was slightly insulting, but thats beside the point. I politely said no thank you. Their lack of willingness to accommodate possible members has steered me away from this gym permanently. I got the impression that they cared more about making money than helping members achieve their fitness goals. I will not mention any details but the conduct I have seen from these owners has been anything but professional. (See other negative reviews here). Needless to say, another crossfit gym graciously accommodated me without hesitation. I value a gym that cares for and accommodates their members over a gym with tons of fancy new equipment any day. Its a shame that these people do not know how to run a business in a professional manner because they really do have a great facility.

We absolutely love Crossfit Ambush. The programming, equipment and coaching are top notch. The place is always very clean and organized. There are several coaches for the classes and they offer more than just the traditional Crossfit with boot camp, cardio classes and oly lifting. Too many good things to say and no bad things. They have captured what a Crossfit gym is supposed to be with the community to go with it.

I write this review assuming you, the reader, know what CrossFit is all about by now. After all, its been around for years and hundreds (thousands?) of articles have been written telling you to join the fun or stay away; memes dedicate themselves to poking fun at the paleo way of life; and entire conversations about CrossFit leave people wondering how words like snatch, jerk, and box can all be used appropriately in one sentence. So being that youre reading a review about a CrossFit box (and seemingly have the good sense to know that CrossFit is, well, awesome), I write simply to say that in your search for the best CrossFit to join, you will find no other CrossFit box quite as amazing as CrossFit Ambush (i.e., stop searching, get in your car, and go to Ambush).When you hear people talk about the CrossFit Community, THIS is what theyre talking about. First and foremost, I assume you (again, the reader), are looking into CrossFit because you want to improve your health and fitness in one way or another. Whatever those health and fitness goals may be, you will achieve them here. The coaching staff is top of the line. They come to you CrossFit certified and with an amazing wealth of fitness knowledge - seriously, these coaches are the Vanilla Ices of CrossFit (for you younger CrossFitters, that means that if you have a CrossFit problem, yo, theyll solve it). More importantly, they genuinely care about you, your safety, and pushing you to achieve your goals. The coaches here truly love CrossFit and it shows.The box itself is A-MAZING! The owners, Birkleigh and Chris (who immediately become two of your biggest cheerleaders, by the way) spare no expense in ensuring they have the most up-to-date equipment - not only does this mean you have your own equipment (and space) for a workout, but, more importantly, it provides the ability to have workouts that vary every day so you never get bored. The programming is also A+. Every class has a warm up geared directly towards the days workout, a strength/skill component so you can focus on improving on that particular movement, and then, of course, the workout itself. For anyone worried that they might not be able to do certain movements or lift certain weights, get that out of your head for good. There is always, always a way to scale a workout and the coaches at Ambush are really great about ensuring you have the proper weights and are clear about the movements before any workout begins.Personally, my favorite thing about CrossFit Ambush is our Ambush family. You really will not find a better, more supportive and motivating group of people, and it feels like that from the moment you step into your first class. We are a community in every sense of the word (and, if you need more proof of that, a simple glimpse at their Facebook page will show you just how amazing it is to be a CrossFit Ambush member). During any given workout, you will see people cheering one another on, pushing each other to be their best. No matter what level you are at, no ones accomplishments go unnoticed. There are times I have been the last person to complete a workout and I always find myself surrounded by my CrossFit teammates and coaches cheering me on, rooting for me to finish. There are many people who lift heavier than me, but when I hit a PR, they all make me feel like Ive just won the CrossFit Games (and who doesnt want to feel a little bit like Rich Froning every now and again?). CrossFit Ambush is truly my happy place. I truly believe it will be yours too.

I love coming to Ambush. I almost didnt try out the place but my friend took of visit and he made me come. He said it was one of the nicest, most top of the line box he has ever seen and that I had to try it out, so I did. I went in the following Monday of their grand opening and I havent looked back. its a great place with great people. I know for damn sure this will be one of the top boxes in south florida if not the country soon enough. The place has the best equipment, people, and WODs. I honest to God plan my day around coming here and look forward to seeing all the people busting their ass and killing these WODs together, there is nothing like it. From kids as young as 11 to a grown woman at the age of 57 taking and doing whatever it takes to finishing her WOD, truly amazing.

There aren’t enough words to describe how amazing Crossfit Ambush truly is! Not only do they have top of line equipment (making you feel like a total boss) but they have beautifully high spirited people all around. Starting Crossfit Ambush has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, definitively money well spent. Personally I’ve never been athletic nor have I ever been part of a team but Crossfit Ambush has changed that for me. It’s welcomed me with arms wide open, literally hugs and has made me feel a part of something huge and for the first time, made me feel like part of a team. It feel absolutely amazing to be part of such a huge movement. Each and every one that trains there is much more than just a spotter or work out partner, we’ve become a family.. a huge wonderful, beautiful family that is always open for more members. If you’re looking for a challenge, you have no choice but to come in for yourself and experience what Birkleigh and Chris (coaches) can do for you. They are transforming me, not only physically but mentally. There’s nothing like training with people that push you every step of the way, making you proud of everyone and yourself. Come in, and find out what you’re truly capable of!

Crossfit Ambush is the best equipped gym in area hands down! They got all sort of equipments you can think of. The coaching staff is amazing because they work as hard as the members of the box. I always try to give them and their members a visit because I love it up there, the environment, people, and their dog rogue! Crossfit Ambush is growing so much everyday its incredible, and im glad for the success Birkleigh Foreman, and Chris Walters are getting. This is just the beginning i believe so everyone should go head out to visit this amazing box, because you wont regret it. It will feel like a second home, and surely want you to come back for more..

This box is great! I saw Ambush by pure chance, just walking by the box one night and noticing all the equipment through the window, but it wasnt the fact that there was a lot of it, it was how immaculate Ambush looked. Very well organized and CLEAN. You could tell right away that whoever was operating this box knew what they were doing. So with the very next opportunity, I came in to try it out, and now it’s been two months and I haven’t looked back since. From the very second you walk in, you feel a very comfortable, warming atmosphere – something, I feel, a lot of boxes are missing nowadays. Birkleigh and Chris are always there to greet you and make you feel welcome, whether you’re a member or just expressing interest in Ambush, they always make you feel like you’re not just joining a gym, but joining a family. Ambush is a very fun, drama free, and motivating box – and that’s just talking about the people. Now the workouts themselves are absolutely amazing. Honestly some of the best programmed workouts that Ive have ever performed. The movements always complement each other – building on top of the basic skills you learn – and you’re always working from the beginning of the class to the end, unlike others where you finish a workout with 25 minutes left to do nothing. And you’ll never feel over trained – the WODs are always changing: you’re always doing something different. They arent lying when they said “constantly varied”. One of my favorite things about Ambush is the variety of classes – they literally have something for everyone. Whether you’re more into strength training, or just looking to get a good rush without so much lifting, Ambush has spin classes, EMOM classes, and even ELEVATION TRAINING!!!! I’ve tried them all and I love everything about CrossFit Ambush. So if you’re looking for the most complete CrossFit gym to invest yourself into, then CrossFit Ambush is definitely where you need to be. Oh, and a huge plus is Rogue the Frenchie, the coolest, most fun dog AKA ladies’ man you’ll ever get the chance to work out with.
