Theres a reason this gym has ~50 reviews and a perfect 5.0 stars. You just need to come see for yourself as to why ;)The coaching is great. Daren is thoughtful both in his programming and his individual feedback. People from all walks of life come together to make this gym what it is...meaning anyone and everyone can fit in and belong. If youre reading this, I hope I get to see you at the gym!

I joined CrossFit Urban Jungle in the fall of 2019. I just moved back to Texas and was looking for a close group of people. I had recently left a terrible relationship and needed more support. I didn’t know much about CrossFit but was a student athlete my whole life so I figured I’d catch on pretty easily. Daren and Michelle were so welcoming and taught me everything I know today about CrossFit. It was easily one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I love them both very much! Not only are they great coaches, but amazing friends as well. If you’re looking to get in shape, make more friends, learn healthy living, sweat a little (a lot) or simply love back squats and cleans, then this is the place for you ;)

When I joined the gym 3 years ago, I was welcomed in. I had previously been going to 24 hour fitness and had plateaued. Daren was an incredible coach and corrected my form on several lifts. As a result, I started seeing the improvements I was looking for. Plus the community that comes with the gym makes you never want to leave. If you are wanting to switch gyms, this is the place to go.

Great gym! Clean environment, choice of new equipment, they stay on top of equipment repairs and maintenance, friendly staff and great trainers

I love the community Daren, Mike and Michelle have built here. It’s very inviting and drives my success each and everyday. If your working on something in particular they will strive to make sure you hit your goals.

I moved to TX being after being in the CF community for over 6 years back in my home town. After lots of searching I found CFUJ. Once I met the athletes and staff I knew I found my new community. They all made me feel welcome and like part of their family from day 1. The athletes and coaches are all nice, enthusiastic and encouraging. They push you in all the right ways. I saw many improvements in my overall performance, health and strength. The coaches are great and are always available to help you and give great advice to help in your fitness and health journey. Definitely recommend giving CFUJ a try!!

If you are new to crossfit or have been going for a while this is a great gym to use. The coaches are amazing and great to work with. They make sure you are comfortable no matter your level. The atmosphere is fun and friendly and an overall great place to get a good work out in!

When I moved to the Plano/Murphy area, I visited several boxes searching for a new CrossFit home. Daren was the difference maker as he made me feel welcomed and took the time to get to know me. Since that first day, his coaching and encouragement along with the culture and community of CFUJ has allowed me to progress towards reaching my personal fitness goals.

I love going here! Its a very friendly atmosphere, and I felt super comfortable even the first day when I had no idea what was going on. Coach Daren really knows what hes doing and is very encouraging.

Just celebrated my 5-yr anniversary at this gym. The community and coaches keep me coming back. The workouts are adaptable for every skill level. The coaches help you get the most out of your time according to your abilities and goals. The coaches promote an environment of encouragement and celebrating individual successes.From elite athletes who can do every WOD Rxed to those of us that want to get/stay fit even if it means scaling most workouts, everyone is welcome. It’s my gym and I love the people.

Everything about CFUJ is excellent! Coach Daren and Michelle are strong trainers and yet very humble individuals. They push everyone one to train harder with the new techniques in daily workout while maintaining the personal connection to improve your wellness journey. There are several fitness clubs around in Plano but I found the right balance of high tech and high touch, only at CFUJ.

It helped introduce me to new workouts and showed additional movements on workouts I knew already. It has improved my overall endurance for any workout. The environment is very positive with being able to meet new people striving for similar goals as me.

The staff and other members are friendly and knowledgable. It never feels overly competitive; rather, everyone is there to help each other improve.The location is convenient and the atmosphere is unimposing and welcoming.Workouts are challenging but achievable with time. While the work might be intimidating, the culture never is.

Urban Jungle is more than a crossfit gym, it is a family to me. The coaches are very knowledgeable, supportive, and caring! Since I have been a member of Urban Jungle the coaches have helped me become stronger and healthier through the great programming and training.

AMAZING BOX, AMAZING WORKOUTS!! Everyone is incredibly friendly and they know how to push you to the limit in the best way with your workouts. Highly recommend to check it out.

If you’re looking for a CrossFit box to either dip your toes or dive into, I would highly recommend that you come and experience Crossfit Urban Jungle. Their workouts are strategic and well rounded, so if you’re new to CrossFit workouts or working out in general OR you’re wanting to start competing - all of the coaches are certified and equipped to help you no matter the season.With Covid, they’ve taken precautions to allow for everyone to be safe during the workouts.

The coaches are very knowledgeable and I have been going there since 2015. Coaches are very welcoming and always encourage members to use good techniques when executing movements, to reduce injury and eventually improve performance.

Dropped in on Saturday and I was worried a bit due to covid but Urban Jungle CrossFit is one of the cleanest places you can go. The members are really are considerate of each other and it’s cleanliness. Equipment is wipe down before and after used. Coach Darren was friendly and motivating during the workout. I definitely recommend you guys to Check Urban Jungle CrossFit.

Daren Sok, our coach is quite simply an amazing person! CF Urban Jungle isn’t just a place to workout, we are like family. My workouts are challenging, but still the best part of my day. Daren truly cares about his clients and treats everyone with dignity, respect, and care for our safety. I love CFUJ!

I was only at urban jungle for a couple of months in 2019 but those months havent left my mind. Anytime I get back into a gym I start to daydream about this place. Definitely the most motivated, uplifted, and fulfilled I have ever felt in any athletic or exercising setting. Darren and all the trainers were always supporting me and it got me to hit PRs for lifts Id been doing on and off for years. It also got me comfortable with compound lifts that im integrating in my workouts to this day.Wish I could take them with me everywhere, but having moved to NYC and now Boston its been hard to look for anything that feels as good as crossfit at urban jungle. Dont hesitate to go in, all experience levels are welcome and supported. You will see progress if you stick with it and show up to class willing to move and push yourself. Good luck!

Highly recommend! Love the variety of workouts and the coaches’ willingness to offer modifications when I need it. 😊

Crossfit Urban Jungle is a clean, safe gym with smart, progressive programming and experienced, knowledgeable coaches. It is a welcoming space for people of all fitness levels to work out and grow. During my time here, Ive become gained strength, speed, flexibility, and confidence from the workouts Ive finished and skills Ive learned. I looked forward to coming here every day!

Been going to CFUJ for almost a year. When I started, was worried it was going to be intimidating, but the coaches and members were all friendly and welcoming. Members are of all levels. There are modifications for all the workouts, so anyone can do it. Love that CFUJ started offering online classes via Zoom!

This gym is like family and Coach Daren is awesome, which is why I have stuck around for 4 years! CrossFitters come in all shapes, sizes and strengths. Come workout with us! I’ll be your slow running buddy!

I’ve never worked out anywhere that felt so familiar, so safe, and with such a sense of community. The coaches are supportive and encouraging, and constantly move me to be a better version of myself while they help me to track my personal growth.

The best CrossFit gym in all of Dallas! Love the charisma! Look no further!

Ive been an active member of CFUJ for about 2 years now. One year in the gym and now roughly one year remote. I began taking online classes from CFUJ when the covid shutdowns started happening last March, and have continued to use their online workouts until I feel safe to return back to the gym.Darren and Michelle made a great transition into the online workout scene. Daily emails on what your workout is, focused attention from one of them while the other runs the in person class, etc. The online classes are just small tweaks to the in person class, so you can see people doing a similar workout to you in real time. Darren and Michelle run all of the timers for you, so really all you have to do is join the zoom meeting and youre good to go.Its been a crazy year with the pandemic afoot, and I cannot recommend enough this online course for people like me who arent too comfortable going to gyms yet, but still want to challenge themselves and get a good workout a couple times a week. I hope to see some new faces in the online 5PM class!

I was nervous before I joined this gym that Crossfit wouldnt be for me. I didnt want to be the fat kid in the corner in a gym full of bros. Luckily, CFJU isnt like that at all. Its an incredibly open, come as you are atmosphere with members of all age ranges and fitness levels. Coach Daren is great and really took the time to understand my fitness goals and helped formulate a plan to ensure Id achieve them. Whether youre a new comer or a Crossfit pro, I highly recommend CFJU.

I am making the assumption that anyone looking on here has already learned about Crossfit, and is now trying to find a home box (gym). Here is what I believe CF Urban Jungle excels at - Coaching & Community.Daren leads a team of qualified coaches that are second to none. You want to attend a box that has coaches that, not only know the bodys mechanics, but also how to instruct you in top notch technique to avoid injury. This team of coaches are some of the very best I have ever had from teaching gross motor technique to making fine/minute tweaks to my form. They teach in a plain, easy to understand way. Making it fun all along the way.A close second to the coaching is the community, which is a culture that the coaches facilitate in combination with really amazing people from the area. Folks at CF Urban Jungle are authentic, passionate, and dedicated. I have enjoyed getting to know people that workout at similar times as me. Somedays my only motivation to go is to see others, and do the workouts with them. Many who I call friends, I would have never met if CFUJ hadnt brought us together. You will not be surprised to see folks rooting each other on at any given time during a workout. It is a fun extra push to get you to your goals.

Crossfit Urban Jungle was the place where I began my Crossfit journey! Ever since 2015, I have felt so supported and loved by everyone in the CFUJ community! Daren and Chelle know how to make a fitness community work!!! Coach Daren has always been a constant source of encouragement! He is great at helping you modify, but also knows when you need to challenge yourself in a workout! CFUJ is the best place to start your Crossfit journey... no matter what type of athlete you are!! (beginner or advanced) The coaches at CFUJ will provide you with the best support and environment!

Ive been going to CFUJ for almost 6 years. The coaches are knowledgeable and do a wonderful job of teaching good technique as well motivate, encourage and have fun with the members. No matter your age, there is a workout that will meet your physical fitness level. From competitive athletes to grandmas like me! This gym is home away from home for me, a true community. I love my gym!

Visiting the Allen area for the weekend and just dropped into this box. I loved it so much the atmosphere was so welcoming and coach Darren was so knowledgeable and motivating! The athletes are also so friendly, they made me feel at home! Will be returning every visit!

Very clean gym, the members are all nice and the owner is friendly and knowledgeable.

Darren and Michelle are some of the nicest people I have ever met. I live out of state but am in Plano often visiting family. I always stop by to work out at urban jungle when I am in town. The coaching is great, the atmosphere is encouraging and the members are genuinely kind and take the time to get to know you. I cant say enough about this gym, the owners, and the athletes that train there. Great people, awesome gym!

This is absolutely one of my favorite places to go ever! I have belonged to a few gyms throughout the years and can honestly say this is the best one I have ever belonged to, I get the best workout I have ever had and get to train with the nicest group ever. I really cannot say enough about how great it is and how awesome the owners are. I have been going here for just over a year now and have not only gotten in great shape but I have made lifelong friends, the entire experience is awesome and I highly recommend giving it a try. The owners and athletes of this gym make it such a family atmosphere, its hard work but fun at the same time, I will never go anywhere else :)

Great training atmosphere!The trainers are top notch and very attentive. I have gotten more stronger, flexible, and faster in the few months that I have been attending. This is coming from an experienced strength athlete. If you are looking to push it to the next level, this is the place!

I have been to 5 different boxes around the area. I chose this one for the quality coaching staff.Daren has become more than a coach. he is a true friend that cares.

Awesome coaches and facility! Hands down best gym and team I have been a part of in all my years in the fitness world. Thanks!

The people are incredibly kind and encouraging, and Ive never felt like I didnt belong, regardless of skill level. Some of the most welcoming CrossFit people you will find.

Very clean, lots of operational equipment, reasonable price

Fantastic place. Great coaches and great fellow cross-fitters.

Great people!!
