Mako Crossfit is a top notch gym, especially if youre trying to be healthier and make better health conscious decisions about your life! The coaches are personable & knowledgeable. Their willing to meet you where you are physically and to navigate you to become better, stronger version of yourself! The atmosphere is challenge yourself and push thru- it has made a HUGE difference in my life physically & mentally!

Mako is the best gym I’ve ever been to. Nothing like it around. Coaches are so incredibly helpful. The owners are very friendly and truly care about your time at the gym and your progress. It really is a community. You feel like a part of a family there.

I was only in town for a month, but Mako brought me back to the basics after having been an avid CrossFitter for about a year and taught me so much in the on ramp course! All the coaches were fantastic, adding their own touches to every class. Plus the programming was exciting, stimulating, and made me feel stronger ever day! Would love to have had longer here!

Excellent gym atmosphere with great coaches. Cant say enough about the place. The members range from beginners to athletes and it truly helps give you motivation no matter what level youre at.

Great welcoming atmosphere, and staff. Would recommend a dropin anyday!

Incredible facility, coaches, and members! Felt extremely welcomed the first day as if I had been a member for years. Great coaching with a focus on a high quality movement. Highly recommend! Definitely one of the best gyms ive ever trained at.

Brandon and his staff at Mako are the most professional coaches that I have experienced in my 13 years of Crossfit. All classes are coach led and all inclusive. It doesn’t matter if your a veteran at CrossFit or your just beginning, they will make you feel welcome and glad you came in. They care about their clients enforcing social distancing and CDC recommendations through Florida’s battle with COVID. If you want to get in great shape, learn how to move and eat right then Makos has a hone for you at the top of the food chain.

Educated staff of coaches. Good community among members.

I love this gym. Ive been going for a little over a month and all the coaches have been great at helping me modify the workouts so I can get the most out of them even as a beginner. The atmosphere is really welcoming and both coaches and members are always super friendly and encouraging.

CF Mako welcomed me with open arms as I was dropping in from Atlanta unannounced while visiting Pensacola. I stayed about 30 minutes away and it was more than worth the drive to get there.Great facility, great equipment, fantastic coaches & programming and an overall kick ass time working out with this group.I highly recommend anyone looking for a place to drop in go here!!It was also very easy to find!! Brandon and his team are the best!

I have been at Mako for over a year now and could not imagine a better box. The coaching is amazing, the facility to top notch, and the members are out of this world. If you want to get stronger, faster, and all around better this is the place to do it. I highly recommend this box to anyone looking.

If you are looking for a gym to drop in at or one to call home, this is the gym for you. Hands down the best gym in the Pensacola area and could very well content with the best in the business. I have been to many CrossFit gyms in the past and this gym excels in every aspect of fitness that you can imagine. The owners, coaches, and members are all more than willing to lend a helping hand for their community. The wealth of knowledge that these coaches have toward CrossFit and exercise will more than exceed your expectations. If you want a gym that wholeheartedly believes in CrossFit and the movement that is being made around the world, then this is where you want to be.

Being military, we move very frequently so it can be difficult to establish a community in a short period of time. Thankfully, Mako welcomed us with open arms and made us feel like a part of things right away. Very qualified coaches, challenging programming, excellent facilities, amazing community. Im thankful we found them!

Big beautiful facility. Coaches knowledge are second to none! Tons of focus on proper movement patterns and modifications to keep you safe and healthy. Its also great to see that all equipment gets cleaned after each class. Love Mako!

Ive actually never been there but Ive seen the gym and people work out there . It seems pretty hard core but in a good way . This a different kind of gym, with a different concept than your chain stores . I was very impressed.

Mako CrossFit is a First class facility with highly educated trainers. In addition, Mako provides a friendly and welcoming environment.I would recommend Mako to anyone considering a fitness program. The Team at Mako truly does go above and beyond for their members. Thank you to everyone at Mako for making the process of achieving and living a healthier lifestyle such a positive and productive experience!

These guys are the real deal! Phenomenal coaching, an accepting atmosphere, and a no-exceptions attitude toward proper movement and safety. I own a CF gym in Maryland and can attest that this is one of the best CrossFit gyms in the country. Absolutely 5+ stars.

I visited the area for a few days and joined in a few WODs. It was a great experience-- the environment of the gym was friendly, interactive, and non-intimidating. As a visitor, I didnt feel like I was put on the spot. Even though it is a much larger gym than what I am used to, the quality of coaching and the camaraderie of the gym was great. The facilities are great with plenty of equipment and space for everybody with rigs, barbell equipment, etc. Coach Gus and Dave taught the classes I attended, and they were very outgoing, knowledgeable and eager to teach. I would definitely go back if Im in the area. Overall, great gym facilities, equipment, environment, and people!

You literally could not ask for anything better in a gym. The atmosphere is excellent and encouraging to all levels of athletes, (from people just looking to look/feel better to those looking to be highly competitive crossfitters) and all of the coaches are top notch. The facility is beautiful and all of the equipment is in great shape. Mako is the place to work out in the Pensacola area.

Amazing gym and super knowledgeable staff. The on ramp course helps people who have no idea how to life (me) learn he movements properly. Even after youre in the regular classes, the coaches are constantly monitoring you to make sure you are doing the movements correctly or adjust accordingly. Ive been with them for almost four months and have been nothing but grateful for the experiences and knowledge I myself have had at this gym!

This is the place for anyone interested in getting better at life. They have something for everyone! Whether youve never done a push up or youre training to become a next level athlete, Mako will help you get there. An incomparable facility, outstanding coaches, and nearly round the clock classes 6 days a week. Mako is where your excuses will stop. Come check it out!

I have been to a few different gyms in the area. And none of them compare to Mako! From their equipment to the coaches best in town! If you are looking for a knowledgeable gym that knows how to program the workouts exactly to your capabilities, this is it ! Also only one gym in town has the one and only Kevin Harris coaching and thats all you really need .

Great coaches who are very patient and knowledgeable. I especially appreciate the individualized coaching techniques that each coach offers on form and technique. The class schedules offer a variety of times to come and coaches at each class are amazing! There is plenty of space to accomdate class sizes and always a clean environment. I for sure recommend Mako!

I cant put into words how amazing this entire facility is. The owners and all of the coaches are so passionate about helping every single person work towards their fitness/life goals, and the results people get are incredible. The atmosphere makes it feel like youre working out with your huge family, and im literally addicted to it. I highly recommend Mako to everyone, no matter what your fitness level is. Love it :)

By far this is the place to go for Crossfit or just great coaches who can work with any range of fitness. If your thinking about going... Go. If your not thinking of going... Go. It will make your life better... and youll look better too!

Great atmosphere and contrary to popular belief about CF gyms, the coaches are extremely knowledgable and personable. They are more like life coaches in many aspects, bringing new tips and tricks about better nutrition, sleep, and more, which ultimately leads to more energy for work and family. Love this box.

This gym is the best. The coaches are helpful and have a ton of knowledge. The people are awesome and extremely motivating. I love being a member at Mako.

I love this crossit. I moved up from south Florida and this group of coaches and members genuinely care about your health and safety. I have previous injuries and the coaches are always asking how Im feeling and giving me advise on how to help get passed it. Mako is the best in Pensacola!

Outstanding CrossFit Gym! I have been doing CrossFit for about 4 years now and have visited many boxes. Mako CrossFit is outstanding. The facility has ample space and the equipment is high quality. There are plenty of coaches available to help with the WODs. They are friendly, motivating and enforce high standards.

Mako has been a great experience thus far. They are staffed with plenty of coaches and the classes are never too crowded. I always feel like I get personal attention if I need it in regards to my form. I would recommend this crossfit gym to anyone.

I love Mako CrossFit! The coaches are awesome and truly care about their members. Everyone is super welcoming and makes you feel right at home.

Mako is fantastic! Being over 40 and overweight I was scared of starting Crossfit. Everyone from the coaches to the other people working out, absolutely everyone made me feel VERY comfortable. It is a very welcoming environment and everyone wants to help each other. The coaches truly care about you and your progress and want to help you be the best version of yourself! Check them out, you will not be disappointed!

I love this gym. Ive been to other gyms around Pensacola and this is the best. The coaches, the facility, all of it. Id recommend this to anyone visiting Pensacola wanting a good gym to go to.

I started crossfit a year and a half ago and to say I was nervous about it is an understatement. Mako welcomed me with open arms and I have grown so much as an athlete and person. The community here is awesome and its like no other box!

I had been thinking about joining a crossfit gym for a while before I decided to check out Mako. I am so glad I did! This place has become my home away from home... Working out used to be a chore, something I dreaded. Since joining Mako, I cant wait to get to the gym! I am so thankful I found this place, the awesome coaches, and the friends I have made!

Mako Athletics is one of the best Crossfit Boxes in the Pensacola Area. The price you pay matches the service and professionalism you get.

Great box to call home! Coaches are always watching and making sure proper form / technique is used. Facilities are well maintained; WODs are challenging; People are friendly!

Great gym! Coaches are very knowledgable and focus a lot on form. Theyve created such a comfortable environment and everyone feels like family!

Staff very personable, knowledgeable and fantastic facility. I love it and very happy I made Mako my Crossfit home. I am new to Crossfit and the level of patience and focus that that every coach provides is above and beyond

I absolutely love Mako! I was really overwhelmed by the idea of Crossfit, but the coaches really made me comfortable with the first two weeks of on ramp. Once I got integrated in the classes, the coaches kept an eye on me and corrected my form and answered any questions I may have. Everyone at Mako is extremely friendly and supportive. The best thing about Mako (and Crossfit) is that they will adjust the work outs according to what you can or cannot do - I have really bad foot problems so I jump on a rower or a bike if the group goes for a run outside. I still get an amazing work out regardless!

Mako coaches are knowledgeable. The gym is clean and well-equipped. I really enjoy being a member.

Mako CrossFiit has become more than a place to workout. This place is my happy place. I look forward to seeing everyones face while we all push each other to be the best we can be. I travel for work and have been lucky enough to drop in at other boxes. Ive never been to a more supportive and fun box in all my travels. The coaches all love what they do and it shows in their classes. This place is just amazing!!

Make CrossFit is an excellent CrossFit gym. They have lots of equipment and space. They make sure you understand the fundamental movements and standards before you start doing the daily WODs. The coaches are friendly and helpful.

Ive been going to Mako for 6 months now and my experience has been incredible. The on-boarding program for new Crossfitters like me was most beneficial. It gave me a full month to learn form and build up endurance to get the most out of my WODs. It also allowed me to meet others going and form relationships with fellow gym goers. It truly is a family environment at Mako. Coaching staff is great as well. Always watching your form for safety as well as motivating you to push harder and finish strong. Youre not just a number here, the coaches follow your progress. I have recommended and would recommend this box to anyone looking to become more fit and live a healthier lifestyle.

This is the third box that Ive called my home and it overshadows all the others Ive been to. Makos coaches and fellow athletes all believe in you and push you to make everyday better than the last. I have improved more here in 10 short months than my entire 3 years of crossfit prior to coming to Mako. This IS the gym to succeed in, and you will not be disappointed.

If your looking for a gym Mako is the gym to go to. It is a fantastic facility, the equipment & lay out is excellent compared to some others that I have visited, but more importantly the staff & the members really make the difference. With awesome & knowledgable coaches who WILL motivate you to improve & great members, its also a good place to make friends who will encourage you to hit your fitness goals, you just might just find yourself going more than once a day. If you want to be Top of the Fitness food chain, come be a Mako Monster!

I joined Mako about a year and a half ago and it was the best decision I made after moving to Pensacola from San Diego. Getting fit was just an added bonus to the amazing community I gained being a Mako Monster. The coaches, staff and athletes make you feel at home and encourage you to be your best self in and out of the gym. As a mid level athlete I really benefitted from the expertise and advice from all the coaches and always felt encouraged, even if I wasnt a crossfit star. Come for the workout, stay for the people !

I joined in November 2014, and Ive been enjoying it more and more each month. As someone who had never really done weight lifting/crossfit type workouts previously, joining a crossfit gym was a little intimidating. The coaches and members at Mako have been nothing but welcoming and encouraging, with a huge emphasis on proper form, technique and mobility. I definitely recommend Mako to anyone looking to improve their strength and overall fitness.

Great place to get a great workout. Awesome trainers, and they know ALOT about what theyre doing. Amazing facility with great equipment. Overall 5 Star crossfit gym and experience. I recommend this place to all my Navy buddies.

Amazing atmosphere, great coaches who focus on proper technique and safety. I recommend anyone looking for a great box to stop in and experience for yourself.

This has been the best gym I have ever worked out at. Great atmosphere. The coaches really focus on making sure you complete all the movements safely and accurately. I have had 1 on 1 training with one of the owners and he stayed and worked with me till I got the movement down. What more could you want from a gym? If you are on the fence about giving crossfit a try because you think you will injure yourself or you dont think you are strong enough, the coaches here will modify any of the workouts for you and make sure your technique is good. Mako Crossfit 5/5!

I have nothing but great things to say about Mako CrossFit. All of the coaches and owners have made my CrossFit experience beyond what I ever expected. Starting with day one, they have pushed quality movement mechanics over everything else and Ive never felt better in my life! I would highly recommend this gym to anyone in the Pensacola area.

I have been going to crossfit for about 6 years and Mako is hands down the BEST. The classes are expertly organized with a group warm up, skill practice or lifting form work, then the wod. There are usually 2 coaches per class so its not possible to sandbag. They will catch you! I was in town for a month and the members embraced like I was a local. I had to drive 30 min to the gym but totally worth it!

Top of the class Coaches! Not to mention they have been to the Regionals for two consecutive years now. Athletes and coaches are friendly, supportive and very approachable.

I joined this gym after trying other crossfit gyms in town because of their exceptional coaching with both crossfit and weightlifting instruction. If you want to learn proper form and technique, and are looking for a challenging yet well rounded workout, then this is the place.

The abosolute greatest CrossFit box that I have ever been a part of. Wonderful coaches, great facilities!

Started my 11th week at Mako today! This place is awesome. I had done some of the movements on deployment, but never received formal instruction. I did the On Ramp class and went from there. All of the coaches are awesome and truly want you to succeed. Everyone has a great attitude and it really helps to erase a bad day at work for me.I am already seeing a lot of progress in my workouts and my fitness level. Anyone who says Crossfit is expensive, go and hire a personal trainer.... now that is expensive! What I love is the coaches are always there to help even when they are off the clock!

Mako is a life changing place. A fun, positive environment with excellent coaches and amazing community.

Great coaching, great programming, great athletes! They work with all levels from the beginners to the elite and they are always trying to make themselves even better.

Thank you CrossFit Mako for welcoming me with open arms today. They have an awesome community and Coach Cuz provided some awesome coaching tonight on form running, pull-ups, Dumbbell snatches, and ring muscle-ups. I’ve been to a lot of CrossFit boxes across the country and this one is top notch. I will be back.

I frequently visit Pensacola and drop in at Mako. They make you feel right at home. Great gym with knowledgable coaches!

Inspired, Motivated, Smiles!Do you want to reach your greatest potential mentally and physically?This is definitely the place to be!Makos owners and staff go above and beyond to make every single person feel important. They are incredibly form conscious. Safety is paramount at this five-star facility. At Mako, not only do you gain physical strength and endurance but mental toughness as well.Mako treats all of its members like family, which is such a comforting feeling when attempting something new.Makos coaches will inspire and motivate you everyday and you will always finish WODs at Mako with a smile on your face:)If you want to experience exponential growth in all areas of your life become a Mako Monster!

Best coaches and best gym ever. Highly recommend!

I have been doing Crossfit now for 2 years and joined Mako Crossfit in July 2014 and the community here is the best that I have ever experienced. Everyone is so welcoming and friendly and the coaches here are experienced and very knowledgeable. They go above and beyond and out of their way to help you reach your goals no matter how big and how small. Within the last 7 months I have made great gains and have become more efficient and effective with my movements. I was new to the area and tried out some of the other Crossfits around but the coaching that I received from Mako was the most valuable. Come in and check it out! I promise you will not regret it :)

Best box in town! Great, knowledgable coaching with a friendly, positive and welcoming atmosphere!

Absolutely love the coaches here. As a busy med student, this gym is perfect for just dropping in, crushing a work out, and then getting back to studying. The staff is super friendly and they always remember me even though I show up on a different schedule every day.Additionally, all the coaches are very knowledgeable and experienced. My snatch form has really improved since starting here and I know its just a matter of time before I get butterfly pullups.Finally, the structure of each class is to have a weightlifting movement in the beginning and then the WOD (workout of the day) at the end. This allows us to focus on strength, cardio, and technique all in a single high-productive hour.

Best gym ever!!! Coaches are great, Best decision I made a this year.

Amazing People, Amazing Coaches, and Amazing Atmosphere. Great place to go!

I moved to Pensacola in August, 1400 miles away from my family, and started crossfit at MAKO in September. This has been the best decision that I have made since moving down here. The gym has been incredibly welcoming and I have made incredible progress since starting. The coaches take the time to correct form and ensure you are completing everything safely, even when you do not think they are watching they somehow are. The other members are just as helpful and friendly and I have met many wonderful people through this gym. If you are looking for a new place to crossfit, or are thinking about trying it for the first time, I highly recommend MAKO.

Best box in Pensacola with something to offer for every fitness level!

Mako Crossfit is an exceptional place that is only surpassed by the phenomenal community of Mako Coaches and Mako Athletes.

I attended other gyms/boxes in the area with the goal of becoming a stronger lifter. I found it hard to reach that goal because I simply did not know how to lift properly and was scared of injuring myself. I would grow more and more frustrated every day. I watched countless youtube videos trying to learn the right form. I gained little progress. I found that most boxes or gyms simply did not have a large enough coaching staff. Or you would have to pay a small fortune to do some personal training with someone who new little about the sport. I heard of Mako through a friend and attended one class. Before, during, and after the workout I was surrounded by coaches and more knowledge then I could possibly take in. My pride got the better of me and I did not scale the workout. I WENT WAY TO HEAVY The workout included a run as well. After my first set with the weight I took off for the run completely out of breath. While I was running Coach Brandon and coach Gus changed out the weight to a more manageable weight. I arrived back at my bar and was able to complete the workout.They saw an athlete struggling and jumped in immediately without being asked. I knew at that moment this would be where I train. I have played sports my whole life and have never seen a coaching staff as knowledgeable and concerned for the health of the athletes as I have seen since joining MAKO. There is always multiple coaches and athletes walking around ready to advise and help. Our community has become stronger and healthier all around since MAKO opened. Read my story heed my advice and do not waste your time anywhere else. If you want to become healthier, stronger, and faster GO TO MAKO.

My wife and I joined Mako in October 2015. We are coming up on our one year anniversary. We are both in our mid fifties and fairly active. While we were eating pretty healthy, and exercising fairly regularly, our son convinced us to join Mako because of the success he had experienced. Today on August 15th, todays WOD showed me just how far I have come in 9 months. Nine months ago, I could not have done todays WOD. Over the course of theses nine months we have lost weight and inches and gained muscle. We are eating even healthier and moving more comfortably. I deliver bottled water and it is a very physical job. Crossfit has helped me in that day to day grind. My wife has strength she never knew she had. The coaches make sure you are moving through the paces correctly and safely. There is never any pressure to do something you arent comfortable doing. Most of the folks at our gym are much younger than we are. But they are friendly and open and go out of there way to make us feel welcome and part of a family. The coaches foster this feeling of family and there are social functions at the gym and outside the gym. This isnt for everyone, but if youre looking to change your health in a positive way, and help make sure you will always be able to move with ease, I highly recommend signing up for on ramp and get moving. It has changed our lives for the better.

My wife and I moved back to Pensacola in May of 2014 after being away for 12 years. Originally, I was looking for gym that let me squat and deadlift without a smith machine. These days that seems to be a hard thing to do. I asked an old childhood friend who does Olympic lifting in Tampa area about gyms and he recommended Mako. He couldnt have been more on point about the coaching/equipment/atmosphere that makes working out enjoyable at Mako.I never intended to join a Crossfit gym given the cliche assumptions seen on the internet but none of that exists here. After going through a month of on-ramp where the coaches teach you the moves and philosophy and ease you into workouts, Ive made it everyday work and life allows me. The coaches are knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and they always focus on safety. They are easy to talk to, and will do what they can if you talk about your goals.After joining in July of 2014, my wife started coming in November 2014 and we couldnt be happier with the coaches and community. If you have any hesitations, come once and see for yourself.

I have been doing crossfit for a year and 6 months before i moved to pensacola.. and i have seen more results in my 1 year at mako than any where else. the coaches are all very helpful and genuinely want you to succeed. these people become more than just friends, we are all family. mako not only offers crossfit but we also have the ability to help you achieve your weightlifting goals as well. i highly recommend you coming to try it out. you will not be sorry .=)

By UWF in Northeast Pensacola just over a month ago, I had no idea if Crossfit was something that was even possible for me as I suffer from a severe balance issue. I knew very little about Crossfit but knew there were all types of calisthenics, gymnastics, power lifting, and lots of quick movement changes? I thought there is no way that I will ever be able to accomplish this. Its kind of a combination of everything and just a way to exercise and improve your life and health.You will start off in on-ramp classes that will teach you proper techniques so you dont hurt yourself and basic movements that youll use in the workouts. After you finish the on-ramp, you can then join the regular classes. The schedule is on their website, but they have classes throughout the day to accommodate almost any schedule.I started by meeting Brandon Massie the head trainer at Mako Crossfit and after 45 min I felt like I had found a home. I felt like I could do anything that Crossfit could throw at me. The great thing about Mako Crossfit is all the instructors work to make you feel comfortable no matter your skill level by scaling, modify, or substitute exercise to your ability until you are ready for regular WOD (workout of the day). The trainers at Crossfit Mako Pensacola are great. They keep you motivated, will not let you quit and the workouts vary enough so you dont get bored.I never joined a gym before this, but the whole staff is awesome. If I were to do some of these workouts at home, I would quit for sure and probably fall over. Having the trainers and classmates push you to the finish is great. When I first joined, I was watching the regular class and I noticed people encouraging one guy to finish the workout. They were clapping and willing him to finish strong. No egos, no attitudes, or competition except you versus the clock. I dont think youll see something like that at a regular gym in Pensacola. You get that feeling of accomplishment and then youll come back and do it again the next day! It becomes addictive

Best gym on the planet! I travel all over the SE for work, and I have not found a better box, good thing I call Pensacola home!

Great Box and great people!!! Great place to drop in while you are in Pensacola!!!

Best Crossfit gym in Pensacola! :)

Great coaches, clean gym, and good people

Awesome coaches, awesome community!

Large box with helpful trainers and large classes

I love this gym.
