I really enjoyed the mom group today! Kayla was great at explaining how to do things. It was my first time doing crossfit, and i can say it was hard but good😊
Everyone was very welcoming! I was instructed well and enjoyed all the training. All the instructors were great and Kayla was very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend and definitely going back!
Always enjoy the coaches and members at FNA, very welcoming environment! Whenever I’m in Edmonton it’s my go to BOX!
Kayla explains the workouts in great detail and walks through the class during the workouts to offer suggestions on correcting form.
Fun and energetic environment led by a great coach in Mike. I like that the workouts are clearly described, demonstrated and easy to follow. Just have to show up and do the work!
Kayla is a great coach and has a super positive energy even at 6 am classes. Helps me scale any work out I need help with.
Today my husband and I did our first trial class. Kayla was very thorough, encouraging, and understanding of my limitations (recovering from car accident). Thank you, Kayla, for a great class. We will be back!!
Sydnie always attentive, explaining to us in detail how to break down the numbers to improve performance. After the tips, I figured out how to do it in my head and was very happy with the result. Thank you very much to everyone, my training partners did super well, everyone is happy with the coach. Fridays with her are always special. Thank you soo much!
I am impressed with the place and the coaches!I recommend everyone to come to CrossFit and enjoy life.
Kayla was friendly and informative!
Mike was great, very welcoming. Very positive . Great gym
Mike challenged everyone based on their skill and brought great energy to keep everyone driving 👊
Jason is a great coach for this weight lifting class. I've learned so much to help me with my CrossFit ability. He always has great pointers and helps drive all the potential out of you.
Mike was great! He did a wonderful job at encouraging me while running the class and making sure form is being worked on and pushed without being over the top. Super supportive, motivating and attentive.
Great class as always!!
Mike is a great coach that you can tell takes great pride in his facility. Programming was awesome and very challenging and the environment was very supportive. Will not hesitate to drop in again.
Mike is excellent and precise with technique. He’s a flexible coach and is super patient about demonstrating skills (repeatedly) for a slower learner like me :)
Great atmosphere and very welcoming! Walked in nervous but left feeling extremely confident!
First class back after a couple years, class was super welcoming really appreciate the community
He was encouraging when I was doing well and also after a very tough workout
I need the push, and he provides an ample push. I need the form instruction, he does not spare on form. Great start so far to our time working together
Coaching was top notch! Mike was positive and encouraging. He guides and corrects when he sees m
Such a great class! This is the CrossFit gym to visit when in Edmonton! Staff is so nice and attentive ! The gym is clean with quality equipment. Highly recommended!!
Mike is an excellent coach. First time I’ve really felt challenged and pushed with my fitness goals in mind.
Sydnie was a great coach! She helped me throughout the workout and gave great tips and pointers on form and body positioning.
Mile is a great coach. I’m from out of town and came for a drop in. Mike is Welcoming and engaging with all members in class, especially to new faces taking time to introduce them into the group. Loved the energy and vibe. Solid leadership all around.
Mike was great! It was my first workout postpartum and he made sure the workout was both challenging and safe for my body. He was extremely encouraging and knowledgeable.
Got to partner with Mike for the WOD today. Kicked my butt and kept the energy high. Highly recommend.
Mike is awesome. A blend of humour and calm with a strong push and high expectations. There isn't a time I've been in the gym and Mike hasn't come along to help, give pointers, etc.
Just finished my first class at FNA CrossFit and I really enjoyed it. Working with Michael was exactly what I needed—his pace was just right, very patient and instructive, and he explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. He was also super attentive throughout the class. The gym itself is really nice, and the atmosphere felt very welcoming and inclusive. That last set had me feeling like I might puke—in the best way possible. Solid workout, can’t wait to go back.
We were a couple of out of towners and stopped in for a w/o at FNA, very welcoming gym and coach, had a great w/o and time. Mikes technical coaching was great and appreciated. We will be back.
Me and my husband were visiting Edmonton and decided to try a workout at CrossFit FNA. Mike was a great coach, he helped us clean up our form was really friendly and didn’t rush us out when class was done but let me practice rope climbs and even continued to coach me through those as well! If we are in Edmonton again we will be back.
Dropped into a class while in town for work - great box, friendly members and coach made me feel welcome; got some good double under tips!
Each time that I've been to FNA, I have always felt very welcome. The staff are super friendly and professional. The gym is always clean and they have a tonne of equipment for any kind of workout. I would definitely recommend FNA to friends and family!
Mike takes the time to understand each persons strengths and weaknesses, offering modifications and encouragement to help everyone progress. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced, Mike makes sure you feel welcome and empowered.
Super friendly, attentive, knowledgeable and motivating.
Sydnie was really helpful with technique and explanation. It was my first ever class and I was really happy to have the support!
Coach Mike at FNA shows interest in all his athletes to make sure everyone gets the proper stimulus so they can achieve their long term fitness goals!
Great. Loved that you introduced new people. That you noticed when I didn’t quite yet know the warm ups and reviewed them. Also - I appreciated the help in setting up my station in the space. Thanks for that I enjoyed the energy. The community. Also the coaching cues and communication throughout the workout. It’s nice to see a coach lead practice of skills afterwards as well. Gives me something to work on next time Great use of all the time in that hour And I enjoyed having the strength component at the start All fantastic things I look forward to having my son Andrew try it out as well very soon.
Awesome place!! Thanks again for the hospitality.
I’m pretty sure I saw my soul leave my body today. But I really appreciated all the encouragement from everyone to get it done (barely). Friday Night Lights was a blast. Can’t wait until next year.
Dropped in for the 9:00 class today. Coach had some great pointers for my cleans and jerks and the the atmosphere was fun and full of energy! Great group of people and a great coach! Highly recommend stopping in if you are in the area! 💪
Thanks Mike. Great intro to CrossFit today. You definitely pushed me harder than I would’ve pushed myself and the class was fun and welcoming. Look forward to another opportunity to see what else CrossFit has to offer. Cheers!
I started at Crossfit FNA a little over a year ago as a very out of shape middle aged guy with a short term goal of getting fit, and a long term goal of aging in health, as much as possible. Mike and Crossfit FNA have been indispensable in my journey and in moving toward my goals. The last year hasn't been without it's ups and downs, but I've been able to continue moving forward through it all, thanks in large part, to the great and supportive environment that Crossfit FNA provides. I'd highly recommend Crossfit FNA to anyone that's interested in improving themselves physically, and mentally, and especially to anyone that's considering embarking on a similar fitness journey to the one I'm on.
CrossFit FNA was very welcoming and made us feel like we were home! Mike is an excellent coach and knows his stuff! Very nice clean facility, and we loved our time there! We will definitely be back! Caroline and Dave, Brandon, MB, Canada
Everything was great.
Went to checkout CrossFit FNA today as a potential gym and loved the experience. The head coach was informative, professional and friendly. Looking forward to my next classes here!
Very welcoming and helpful :)
Great guidance, encouragement and knowledge. Very welcoming atmosphere!
Great crossfit box in a clean space. Mike welcome our Team with respect and professionalism.
Coach Mike is always extremely helpful and encouraging. He is always comes up with great scaling options for me in the workouts. He is a fantastic coach to have!
Bravo! Always good tips and guidance. Knows when to push you and when to get you to scale back. Always appreciated!
Mike is always very thorough and diligent with his athletes. Even as an experienced Crossfitter, I have actually seen improvements in my lifts and movements since training under him.
This feedback is just in general, not just for this class. Please understand these are just my personal observations, and I know my perspective might not be fully informed. What I’ve really enjoyed: • I truly appreciate how much time and effort you invest in coaching us. Your attention to detail and focus on helping me progress is something I value a lot. It motivates me to push harder and improve. • Your enthusiasm and vocal encouragement during class are always a boost. It helps create a great atmosphere, and I'm sure the rest of the class feels the same way. A couple of thoughts for improvement: • Sometimes, I feel that the time between sections of the workout, like breaks or transitions, can stretch out longer than necessary. I wonder if there’s an opportunity to trim this down a bit, which could give us a little extra time for more focused training. • The $50 yearly fee is understandable, but I think it would feel more seamless if it were built into the monthly membership. Additionally, being upfront about this in the contract might avoid any confusion or awkwardness around payment expectations, especially for newcomers. Again, these are just small things that I’ve noticed, and overall, I love being part of the gym. Thanks for the classes!
Coach Mike was, as always, incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. He always takes into account each individual's limitations and abilities to make every workout challenging but achievable. 10/10 would highly recommend!
Very nice place and coatch! See you
Excellent coach, very welcoming, couldn’t be better!
Coach is very engaging and walks you through the exercises and make sure to give you feedback as the exercises goes on
Great coaching from Serena!!!
He was helping out with everyone. And gave good feedback on lifts.
Coach Mike - you are the best coach around!!! I’ve been through many in my life and I’ve never met a coach who has been so knowledgeable, motivating, encouraging and organized like you! Excellent workouts, excellent planning, excellent facility, and excellent execution of each session! Also, fabulous music!!! Lol Edmonton is lucky to have you running CrossFit FNA! Thank you for all you do for the CrossFit family! 👊
Mike is welcoming, informative, and comes with high energy to coaching class. Come ready to work and learn; you’re sure to have a great time!
Sweaty and fun workout
Great, as always!
Coach Mike is great! What I appreciate the most is that he is actually paying attention to every single move we make (no matter if it's a new or experienced member)making sure the workout is done properly. Thank you for healthy motivation and respect. 👌 The whole fna community is awesome!
Excellent class - challenging - great start to the day - you are appreciated
