101 out of 414 members asked left a review (24.4% participation rate) in the last 90 days. This is above the network average of 13.9% across 1,278 gyms.
Boutique gyms typically see higher average ratings than big-box gyms because members are personally asked by coaches they train with daily — not through anonymous post-visit emails. This personal connection means the feedback is more genuine and detailed, and members who love their gym are naturally more motivated to share that experience.
I had such an amazing experience at my first HYROX drop-in class! From the second I walked in, the coaches and everyone there were so welcoming, friendly, and inviting. As someone coming into a new gym for the first time, that immediately made me feel comfortable. The workout was AMAZING, challenging in the best way and exactly what I was looking for. Jared was incredible and took the time to explain everything to me, help me understand what times I should be aiming for, and make sure I knew what I was doing instead of just throwing me into the workout. What really stood out to me was the atmosphere. Everyone was encouraging, the coaching was great, and you could tell there’s a genuine sense of community there. I went in thinking I was just trying out a HYROX class, and I left already knowing, Yep… I found my gym. Seriously such a great first experience. I absolutely loved it and can’t wait to go back!
Koda has excellent equipment and space. I’ve connected with people here, love every class. The coaching is also excellent, they make it worth it to show up every day.
I have Jon as a coach and he has taken my fitness to a new level. The variety of classes is love it, and it’s very inclusive for everyone. Getting started was super easy, which made the whole experience even better.
Jenna is an awesome coach! Very knowledgeable and encouraging. Throughout the workout she gives great feedback on form and technique all while managing a group of rowdy athletes.
The enthusiasm and encouragement this entire coaching staff brings is top tier !! Super grateful to be part of this gym family!
Koda is awesome. Coach Tiffany's classes are always a great experience for first timers or veterans. She's a professional when it comes to coaching any level of athlete. Very happy with the vibe here, and they offer free trial classes. Definitely suitable for all levels.
Always a great workout and even better people!!
Koda is great for everyone, and they have personal training sessions with many different varieties of trainers! Plus, you can fit it into your schedule with their flexible hours. Definitely a solid spot!
Koda is much better than other gyms and is definitely youth-friendly. They also offer nutrition advice, which is pretty cool.
I could not recommend a gym, and community more
Great gym! Great coaches!
Koda is awesome, really. The location is very convenient, and the gym is very diverse. Members think it’s excellent.
Great coaching, and fantastic people!
Koda is a great spot for beginners since I would recommend this gym to someone just starting out. The class schedule works for me and the memberships are reasonable.
Great gym, well run class, awesome community!
Koda is great—coaches always checking on me and offering alternatives that better fit my level of fitness. I feel safe and supported here, and the results are very effective. The vibe is welcoming and supportive, which keeps me coming back. Brice is awesome!
Great class time management, great cues. Always fun to have Kam as a coach
Koda has been my fitness home for years now. Coaching is top shelf, community is made up of people from all walks of life and different stages of fitness, but everyone is incredibly supportive. Definitely a place to call home.
Great coaching and friendly members. The new space is great!! I will drop in next time I’m in town
Koda means friend, and this place truly feels like home. The friendly staff are always eager to help, and everyone is there to stay healthy and build community. I love this gym and can’t imagine being anywhere else.
Koda was super easy to get started at, and I love the variety of classes they offer. They were very generous to demonstrate the gym before signing anyone up, which made me feel really welcomed and comfortable. Definitely an inclusive spot! All you need to do is make the drive and make the door, they will get you fit.
Great coaching!
Bryan is great and a model of patience! I brought my 15 y/o to class today and he made sure she understood the moves. She LOVED it! Thanks Bryan!
I always have great workouts with Jared. The gym is very friendly and accommodating.
Great place, Great people, and great workout.
Safe, challenging programming. I like the 10-15 warmup so you’re not jumping straight into the challenging HYROX section. Programmed well for all levels of fitness. But if you really want to push it, it’s set up for that as well.
Great first class! Jon was super supportive, and I loved the workout. I’ll be back!
Great class! I love the energy of the place.
The Hyrox class was fantastic! Coach Jessica led a great warm-up and was very attentive throughout, making modifications for my injury while ensuring I still got a great workout.
The coach is pretty mean but other than that it’s great!
Koda is the bees knees!
Definitely the best gym I've been to in Oklahoma very friendly and extremely knowledgeable coaches and staff building is always clean and a excellent selection of equipment for a CrossFit gym
Great class, I could tell Coach Jared made each member in class feel like it was a 1:1 coaching sessions. He is very professional and made the class extremely enjoyable. It was a great “I’m going to push you because I know you can do better” type of camaraderie environment led by Coach
Chad is the man! Great workouts and awesome camaraderie 💪
High quality, professional, gym coaching for all ages and abilities.
Koda has excellent coaching and I’m very satisfied with the vibe here. The group coaching options are pretty great if you’re into personalized training.
Coaching from Jessica is awesome one time I grabbed a weighted ball to heavy Jessica said put that back and grab a 20 she saved me from myself. Jessica stays engaged the whole class great coach.
I dropped in to catch a WOD while I was in town and was not disappointed! Excellent facilities, coaching, and an awesome community as always. Thanks for having me Adam!
Koda has a welcoming, supportive vibe and excellent equipment and space. I've seen progress since I joined, and I really like it here.
Great stretching as well
Jenna is a fantastic coach! She’s very knowledgeable and takes the time to explain everything, so you’re not left guessing. Her energy and passion are truly infectious!
Koda has free trials and discounts for military, first responders, etc which is great.. all classes are group settings with different levels of fitness which makes it fun for everyone. They do have different types of classes that you check out in their home page along with assortment of times throughout the day. Come out and give try. You will be hooked and meet a lot of great people.
Koda is the place to be when you are ready to level up your fitness journey. Every coach is knowledgeable and approaches class with insight and love. Love the variety of classes, and I think members see it as excellent. Plus, the flexible plans make it easy to customize my membership.
I go to both Native and also HQ in the mornings, and I really like Koda—it’s better than others and super easy to get started here. I’ve connected with people here, which makes it even better.
Dexa scan was quick and easy. John was extremely professional and respectful of my feelings as an older, less fit individual. I can highly recommend
Adam is soooo great
This gym is for everyone! Brice is an excellent coach and loves to motivate you through friendly competition! He is very careful about form and using weights correctly so no one gets hurt! I appreciate it!
I had a great time at the Hyrox simulation event at Koda. The staff was friendly, well-organized, and everything was clearly marked, making it easy to navigate. It was a fun, well-coordinated experience with plenty of amenities (water stations, protein afterwards from Triad) and support!
This was such a wonderful experience. So well ran, perfect communication. Not gonna lie those sleds on the concrete sucked but that’s just what happens sometimes! I will be back 😊
Koda has lots of options for classes, which is really flexible. It’s easy to cancel or freeze my membership, and I think it’s worth the price—great value.
Koda is great with attentive and personal coaching. The showers and changing areas are clean, and there’s a good selection of class times. Workouts are infinitely scalable and super convenient for professionals. Plus, very senior-friendly and I feel safe and supported here.
Jon was very helpful during my first class, offering support and explaining movements clearly. It was a great experience.
Very solid environment overall for trying to build as a better person and working towards a healthier lifestyle !
Really enjoyed the workout—so much fun! I can't wait to come back for more.
Very nice and very well organized. Brice is an awesome and patient instructor.
This was a great session and very uplifting environment! Great people to he around
Best coaching at any CF gym I’ve worked out at, and I’ve dropped into gyms in at least five different states. The attention to detail, the way the coaches protect you from injury, the well-thought out ten week cycles… The clean, well-organized, and world class facilities… It all makes me miss my box badly whenever I’m out of state!
Stevie and the team at Koda are fantastic! The crew was super welcoming to drop-ins and even gave some coffee recommendations for post workout.
All the coaches are so knowledgeable & they know exactly how to push you individually. The community and camaraderie that Koda has created is unlike any other gym- CrossFit or not.
I don’t like Jared’s socks
Excellent coaching! Always helping me modify my form so I don’t hurt myself and keeps me motivated throughout the workout!
Great people, awesome vide!
Koda in Oklahoma City is awesome during peak hours, it’s excellent. The group classes are very fun, and I love that it’s excellent for women-only or mixed workouts.
Great atmosphere—it's clear they try to make everyone feel welcome and encourage a sense of community where members support and motivate each other.
Koda is a really nice gym. The trainer in my class was friendly and gave great directions, making the workout both fun and effective.
Best CrossFit facility in OKC! Excellent coaching & always have recommendations for mods when needed. Loving the new building!
Loved our first class! The community was super kind and inviting! Stevie did a great job coaching with warm ups, the strength and Metcon portion, and helping athletes make adjustments to get the most out of their hour in a 23 person class! So grateful to feel so welcomed by this gym!
Stevie is the best! Great community with great programming
Koda’s been great, love working out here!
Jared is a great coach the training was fun and he makes it enjoyable!
Love the new space! Thanks for letting drop in and work out with you all!
Great gym and great workout!
Koda always has such a great community and support system!
Thanks for hosting a great event!
Best community ever!
Jared and the staff have been very kind and helpful during my transition to a new lifestyle. They tailor workouts to fit my abilities, making the process easier. I give it a 10/10.
I’ve heard great things about Koda from both current and former members, so I decided to check it out. I’m really impressed with how friendly and accommodating the coaches are, especially when relearning movements and trying new mechanics. I’ll definitely recommend it to coworkers who are hesitant to get back into serious workouts!
Thanks for the drop-in. Everyone was very welcoming. Love the new space.
I've always been hesitant about CrossFit gyms because many don’t focus enough on form, technique, or how everything works together—mobility, functional fitness, strength, and power. I really appreciate the intentionality of the coaches and the thoughtful structure of the workouts at Koda.
I absolutely love koda, all of the coaches are fantastic. I just finished a workout with Mindy and always appreciate her encouragement!
She is a solid instructor who takes her time with you.
Very welcoming, good coaching and programming. I like knowing what we’re working towards each cycle. Members are all very nice and supportive, everyone cheers everybody on, very encouraging.
Great coaching and a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. Everyone is nice and approachable.
I always feel safe during my workouts at Koda. It’s a good spot to hit the gym and know you’re in safe hands.
The only coach in the dropdown is brice, but the coach was jared. Jared's amazing! 100 out of 10. I have a ton of medical issues and my body hurts too much to do most things in the workouts without getting injured, and jared always proactively helps me figure out alternatives and doesn't judge me when I randomly have to give up to not get sick. : D I always feel welcome and accepted even though I'm rarely able to do what everyone else is doing.
It’s mind boggling how Jared and the coaches can still make time for individual development considering the class sizes. But Jared never skips a beat to ensure everyone is using proper form and technique! Koda always welcomes new athletes to CrossFit, and spends quality time with those looking to improve whether is lifting heavier or to keep functional! Hats off to Jared and Chad.
Bryan was very helpful and could tell that I was new to the class immediately. He helped walk me through some of the program I wasn't sure of, then let me fit in seamlessly. It was a great workout and a great vibe with the group Hyrox class. Will be back!
Coach Hamilton always does a great job. His classes start on time, are well managed and his coaching is "top shelf".
Jon is very well versed in the world of fitness. Had him in a few different classes at different times of the day and he always put a huge emphasis on warming up to make sure the movements and workouts feel smooth. He’s always ready and willing to answer questions, correct form, and give some tips if needed. Highly recommend taking his classes!
Chad has been very helpful since I started at Koda eight months ago. It was my first time at a CrossFit gym, and he guided me through all the new techniques and skills with patience and clear explanations. I’ve loved the challenge of learning movements like double-unders and kettlebell swings, and Chad made sure I felt confident and prepared for each workout, even when a skill was completely new to me. He would notice when my form was off and would step in to adjust my posture or suggest a lighter weight so I could build strength safely. Knowing I can always ask Chad for feedback gives me a lot of confidence to keep pushing myself and improving every session. The way he supports my progress has made the experience at Koda both rewarding and motivating.
Adam always makes class fun. He brings a great energy that keeps everyone engaged, whether we’re powering through tough lifts or working on gymnastics skills. What I really appreciate is his deep knowledge - he explains why we do certain movements, breaking down the mechanics so it makes sense, not just following a routine. When it comes to improving lifts or gymnastics, Adam offers expert tips tailored to each person. He notices small details in form and suggests better ways to move that actually make the exercises feel smoother and more effective. That combination of fun and expertise turns every class at Koda into a rewarding experience where I feel like I’m genuinely getting better.
Chad is a great coach. He’s really good at knowing exactly what you’re capable of and how to push you just enough to get better (even when you’d rather not 😅). He pays attention to everyone in class and always keeps things encouraging and positive…in his own way 😝
Brice helped me a ton today by paying close attention to my form during squats and guiding me through specific hip mobility exercises that really targeted my tightness. He noticed where I was struggling and adjusted my stance and depth, which made the squats feel much lighter than usual. After the session, my hips felt noticeably better, which was a relief since I’ve been dealing with stiffness for a while. The way Brice personalized the workout made me feel supported without being overwhelmed. It’s clear that at Koda, the coaches genuinely care about how you’re moving and help you improve in a way that lasts. This kind of focused coaching makes all the difference in my progress.
