CrossFit Empire South

I started my CrossFit journey at CFES and just came back. The personal atmosphere hasn’t changed and I’m glad to be back. Can’t wait for the new gym space, it’s going to be awesome!

As the only scaled person in the room today, Chris made sure to provide the best scale for growth and encouraged me during the class. Always a great way to start the day at CFES! 💪🏻🔥💥

This is a great gym to attend! Lots of good class times and wonderful people. Brian has been super helpful getting us started at this gym!

Chris is a great coach. I like that he is always working to proper form which has pushed me to improve safely and consistently. Every class is motivating, challenging, and tailored to my goals. I feel stronger, more confident, and supported every step of the way. Highly recommend!

Great class! Really enjoyed myself and felt VERY challenged, but supported the whole time.

my first class was an incredible experience. Everyone was welcoming from the moment I walked in, creating a supportive and encouraging atmosphere. Chris stood out as extremely knowledgeable—he took the time to answer all my questions and even discussed my personal goals with me, which made me feel valued and motivated. The workout itself was tough but fun, pushing me in the best way possible. I left feeling accomplished and excited, and I’ll definitely be returning for more.

Coach Jess always does a great job! She brings so much energy to every session, which makes it easier to stay motivated even when the workout gets tough. I really appreciate how encouraging she is - she notices when your form starts to slip and offers just the right adjustments to keep you safe and effective. Her positive attitude creates a supportive vibe that makes me look forward to each class. It’s clear she cares about everyone’s progress, and that makes all the difference in pushing through challenging workouts at CrossFit Empire South.

I had Jess for a coach today. I really like coming to this class. I get a good work out and I usually scale it down for me. Jess is very good energetic and encouraging. Thanks for the work out! Great people to work out with. Very friendly group

Coach Jess always brings her A game energy at 5am. Her attention to detail is annoying sometimes, though. She’ll call you out real quick if you sandbag workouts. 😂 She’s the real MVP.

I’m always happy to have Amy as the coach! She did a great job leading today’s class! It was a short workout, and Amy made sure everyone was warmed up and prepared to crush it!

CrossFit Empire South is something that brings me joy. I always feel better after a workout and I think that all of the coaches truly enjoy coaching and are all pleasant people to be around. I believe a lot of that is because of the way Chris creates the environment.

Jess led a magical workout today! Always a good time at 6am and a great way to start the day!

I love the workouts

Today’s class was great. It felt good to do CrossFit again. I needed to scale and Chris made it easy to do and the class didn’t make me feel less for doing it. Actually saw someone I knew. Looking forward to more classes and meeting new people.

Brian did great. This is the reason people join a CrossFit Box. Coaching and encouragement goes a long way towards a successful workout and starting the day with a positive mindset.

An incredible first experience!” This was my very first rowing class, and I couldn’t have asked for a better coach. Melissa was patient, encouraging, and truly motivational throughout the entire session. I never once felt out of place — from day one, she made me feel like part of the family. The energy, guidance, and genuine care made the workout both challenging and fun. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an inspiring and supportive fitness experience!

I learned the proper way to “cradle the ball.” It’s a skill I will always cherish and use.

Amy made my first experience with CrossFit an enjoyable one! Chris was also very informative with any questions I had.

Amy is the real deal! Motivating, knowledgeable, and makes every workout count.

Love Coach D. She’s simply the best!

I like that you scale the workouts to all levels and watch to see that everyone has good form. Also I like that you try to make it fun and explain the workout.

Chris did great! He is so friendly and always makes me feel welcome! He sees potential in me that I don’t even see in myself. Overall great person and amazing coach!

Amy is an awesome coach! She always motivates me which is what I need during my workouts. I hear her cheering me on when I’m tired and it drives me to push harder! She keeps the workouts fun and always makes me laugh. Bonus- she always plays great music 😆

Great coach, very informative, easy to understand instructions. Makes it fun always gives options.

Coach Amy is the best coach ever! She’s motivational and inspirational. She continually causes me to go for the gold and to push myself when I’d rather scale and relax. She’s definitely a 5/5 coach and I’d highly recommend all crossfitters to experience at least one of her classes

Brian is very professional teaching proper techniques with enthusiasm and encouragement. My favorite coach.

Coach Jess was very supportive! I almost gave up but she encouraged me to keep going and because of that, I was able to reach the goal!

Jess was very helpful

Coach Amy is always fun to workout with! She's always upbeat and encouraging me to do my best!

Went with a friend for friends and family week! It was very fun and Chris helped make it less intimidating for a CrossFit newbie!

Got me hooked

Amy is a great coach! Super encouraging!

I really enjoy Amy’s coaching style. She gives a lot of constructive feedback and helpful ideas to improve performance.

Fantastic! Great music selection, awesome motivator and encourager.

Great cardio! Love the single leg Romanian deadlift and rowing.
