Let me start by saying one of my top priorities is finding a local CrossFit. I got my level I back in 2010 and I’ve worked out in plenty of boxes. So let me cut to the chase. Gene is absolutely one of the best. The facility is perfect for CrossFit and the coaching is primo. I don’t know what else to tell you. If you do CrossFit or you’re looking to try it this is the place. I’ll see you there.
Lynette did a great job showing me proper technique to improve my chest-to-bar. She patiently walked me through the movement, breaking down each part of the pull-up and correcting my form where I was losing efficiency. I left the session feeling more confident about my progress and motivated to keep pushing. Foundry CrossFit really stands out because of coaches like Lynette who take the time to focus on the details that make a difference. Thanks, Lynette!
I love going to foundry. All the coaches have been amazing. Helpful and supportive. The fellow members are also so supportive.
Coach Knight is an excellent CrossFit instructor, very knowledgeable and attentive. He takes the time to coach each movement and makes sure everyone’s form is solid. You can tell he genuinely cares about helping athletes improve. One of the best coaches around!
I came in for open gym, but the gym was clean and well-kept, and the people were friendly and welcoming
Lynette is the best! Keeps us working and provides really clear instruction on technique. She has the gift of being able to correct not criticize with a smile. As an older athlete, I feel completely safe yet challenged in her classes and I enjoy her humor and attention. Susan
Great large class, well-led with clear instruction and feedback. Everyone was very friendly to me as a drop-in for the day!
I’ve dropped into this gym multiple times, and now I’m officially a member. Gene and all other coaches are knowledgeable and detail-oriented — they really focus on your movement during workouts and give helpful cues to keep you on track. I felt welcomed the moment I walked in. The gym is spacious, and the classes are well organized. Highly recommended!
Coach was very helpful throughout the entire session, taking the time to clearly teach me each routine step-by-step. They demonstrated proper form and technique, making sure I understood the movements before we started the workout. The class itself was challenging, pushing me to work harder with a mix of strength and cardio exercises that kept my heart rate up. I appreciated how the coach noticed when I struggled and offered modifications to keep me moving without sacrificing intensity. By the end, I felt accomplished and energized, knowing I had really pushed myself in a supportive environment. Foundry CrossFit stands out because the coaching is attentive and the classes are designed to challenge you while still being approachable.
Travis provided me with great feedback on the issues I'm having with my front squats. I instantly felt and understood what he was telling me to do vs what I was doing and where I was failing. Great class👌
Great adjustments to my form.
Excellent coach Friendly and spent a lot of time with me
Joining Foundry has given me such a great community with coaches and members pushing me to strive for my best! The coaches always take the time in class to give constructive criticism to correct technique and build safe habits.
Knight is an outstanding coach. He seems to have unending energy and patience, and his knowledge and attention to detail make every workout both challenging and empowering. Knight not only demonstrates every movement with ease and mastery, but also knows how to push your limits while keeping proper form and safety a top priority. I’ve seen huge improvements in my strength, endurance, and confidence since training with him. I highly recommend Coach Knight for anyone looking to level up their fitness! 💪
Been doing this for a while and have gone to gyms all across the country. This is t
Very patient and caring! Always nice to get advice from all the coaches!!
I did a drop-in class. I had the best time. Coach Tim was very welcoming and knowledgeable. The group was supportive and made my experience very enjoyable. I highly recommend this CF. Note, I pre-registered, and the process was simple. After paying, I was immediately taken to reserve a time. When I arrived, two people greeted me and helped me check in and ensured I knew who the coach was. I appreciate the ease of visiting this CF.
I was there at 8 o’clock. I forgot her name, but she was learning. She did great. This was a beautiful gym love the workout. I had a great experience there!
Great coaching from Lynette today, as always!
Our coach, Gene Williams, is exceptional! His dedication to every member’s progress is unmatched, with an eagle eye for perfecting form that takes your skills to new heights regardless of where you are in your fitness journey. Personally, it’s refining my double-unders or nailing chest-to-bar pull-ups, his precise cues make all the difference. Nine years of CrossFit and I'm still happily learning. The gym feels like a true family thanks to Coach Williams, fostering a supportive vibe that keeps us ALL motivated. If you want to elevate your CrossFit game, this is the place to be!
Natalie is an excellent upbeat coach who simplifies movements so I can understand them better. Her class is always a tough, positive, and fun part of my day. I love Foundry it has really motivated me and changed my lifestyle. Highly recommend.
Just today after class I was thinking about what a great coach Lynette is! She is patient and yet still expects us to give our best. And she is very good at explaining the technique and watches carefully to correct us.
He did well. I felt confident I knew what to do based on his instructions.
Travis is a top notch coach, been doing it for years and is always getting better. Lucky to have him coaching.
It was an excellent experience. The warmup help me prepare for the workout and allowed me to develop my skills and eventually progress to a full arc workout that include bar muscle-ups.

Coach made sure I could push to an 800m row at least today and encouraged me to keep that going for all rounds while knowing my rowing technique is not great. She’s always so motivating and makes sure my form is safe before the workout begins. Syd’s music selections are always so good too! Love her!
The coaches are friendly, welcoming and so helpful. Thank you for the encouraging words and great coaching!
I've had the pleasure of taking a class with all the Foundry trainers and they're all great. They are such a supportive coaching staff. Watching each of us and making sure we are focusing on our form as well as challenging ourselves. I was new to Crossfit when I joined Fou dry. It has been life changing and been the best decision I've made for myself. Gene is a great leader, always pushing and inspiring us to do our best.
I really never understood Turkish get ups until Coach Gene went step-by-step slowly with the class today. I’m not much better, but I do understand the movement. Maile and I have been to Many CrossFit gyms throughout the world and bar none coach Gene has been the best coach in not only explaining the movements for the day but he somehow is able to watch all the participants and give constructive feedback to everyone! I feel I’m a better CrossFitter due to not only coach Gene but all the coaches at Foundry. Thank you Foundry!
Coach Travis is always a wonderful coach. He helps me all the time with getting stronger and faster. 11/10
As always , great coaching, attention to details. Always look forward on joining a session and clearing up the daily stress.
Great as usual :)
4 years ago I came in knowing absolutely nothing about CrossFit. Foundry has completely changed the way I see fitness. I love all of the coaches and I’ve never felt this strong and healthy!
Gene and the coaches at Foundry CrossFit are amazing and knowledgeable changed my life
Foundry is an amazing gym. The coaches go above and beyond to assist in technique and challenge you when needed! The community is unmatched , 10 outta 10
Awesome gym with wonderful people from the creators to the attendees. It's a butt busting experience!
Fantastic coaching
The class was very organized and every movement was explained in great detail, with scaling options 🙌🏼
Lynette ran a great class, reviewing technique for the row and KB swing before the workout began. The gym was super clean, too.
