Ariane was super engaging and brought great energy to the class. She made the session fun while still keeping us focused, and I really appreciated how she took the time to correct our form. Great experience!

Brooke was amazing- highly energetic. Made me feel welcome - knew her stuff and coached the less tenured class members with attention and clear direction. The gym, class and owner made it a true pleasure to drop in on my work trip to Tampa!

It’s a privilege to be coached by such a gymnastics expert! And she was so patient with me. I had 15 million and 11 questions as I gained my bearings and she was graceful with me. She didn’t make me feel like a pest or a burden. Top notch.

This was my first cross Fit class and it was a huge success. The instructor, Ariane, was such an amazing vibe and helped me modify one part that was hard for me. My goal is to get stronger all around because meanwhile im generally fit I cant do a pull up so I have a lot more classes to go! Great experience!

Chad is an excellent coach! He’s knowledgeable, gives clear cues that have improved my lifts, and brings great energy to class. He’s motivating without being over the top, and I always leave feeling like I got better.

Nice fun work out. It was my first time doing a CrossFit session. I maintained an average HR of 88% of my max so needless to say she kicked my butt. Good thing I’m a masochist so I’ll be back next week.

I am thrilled to share my experience with Coach Ariane at Cigar City CrossFit! From the moment I walked into the gym, I was greeted with a warm and encouraging atmosphere, which is a testament to Ariane's exceptional coaching style. Her passion for fitness and dedication to her clients' success is truly inspiring. Ariane has a unique ability to tailor workouts to fit all fitness levels, ensuring that everyone feels challenged yet supported. Her knowledgeable approach to technique and form not only maximizes results but also minimizes the risk of injury. What stands out the most is her unwavering positivity and motivational spirit. Ariane consistently pushes me to exceed my limits while celebrating every small victory, making each session enjoyable. She fosters a strong sense of community among members, which makes workouts feel like a shared journey rather than a solo task. If you're looking for a coach who genuinely cares about your progress and well-being, I highly recommend Coach Ariane at Cigar City CrossFit. She is not just a coach but a true fitness leader who inspires all her clients to achieve their goals!

As usual, Marissa dropped a hot tip in class that paid off. She’s always got something cooking to make you more successful or better. Just another example of CCCF making sure their coaches are top tier.

Chad was great. That was my first time being straddled by my spotter while doing bench press.

Danette takes the time to explain thingns and think about her response before offering advice. She watches and tries to understand why you’re doing what you’re doing before fixing a problem she sees.

Someone who has been lifting all their life, it’s good to know you still have something to learn. Brooke is great at helping improve form. Always brings the energy we need! 10/10!

Marissa is an incredible coach—knowledgeable, approachable, and always bringing the right energy. She breaks things down in a way that actually makes sense (even when my brain is running on fumes), and her expertise shines in every class. If Marissa says it, I’m listening—because I know it’s going to make me better. Plus, she somehow makes suffering fun, which is a skill in itself!

I love that Chad picks a small cue to focus on at a time which seems to improve more than one aspect of the lift. It’s not overwhelming and works for me.

Method man once wrote - Band, I be Sam, Sam-I-Am And I don't eat green eggs and ham Style'll hit ya, wham, then goddamn You'll be like, "Oh shit, that's the jam“ When I think oh shit that’s the jam I think of the way Marissa coached that class because that was the jam. She no repped me a LOT but my form is trash.
