I've been to hundreds of gyms around the world and this one is amongst the top for sure! It's clear the environment is one that will lead to success for anyone who joins.

I am in love with this place! If I had the money and if it was closer to my house, I would TOTALLY JOIN! They have new equipment and everything is taking care of! If you have kids, this is your place! They have a room where kids can watch tv or play video games, ping pong table, and more! The community is amazing, they are all helpful and nice! They also respect each other's space!! I would love to come back and actually workout in there!

I was honestly nervous about starting CrossFit. Even as a former athlete, I'm older now, I'm a mom,…read moreand I wasn't sure if I could keep up or learn all the movements. But from day one, the coaches at DBG CrossFit proved those fears wrong. They are incredibly patient, encouraging, and focused on proper technique -- they take you back to the basics and help you build confidence the right way. I'm not exaggerating when I say I went from unassisted zero pull-ups to 24 in ONE workout in less than two weeks. Their system works. The coaching is next level, the programming is intentional, and the community is unmatched. Owner Marty truly cares about every member -- he checks in, pays attention, and creates a family-style environment where everyone wants each other to win. It's not just a gym, it's a supportive community. If you're even the slightest bit interested in CrossFit or improving your overall fitness, this is the place. Best in town -- hands down.

I've been to a lot of CrossFit gyms in the area as well as in my new hometown Colorado and I've yet to find something as special as SoGo. You are greeted with pure joy the moment you walk in. The coaches genuinely care about you and your growth along your fitness journey. You will be pushed past your limits, exceed all your PR's, and come out with the best friends. That's not all! The programming is by far the best I've experienced. You get strength, olympic lifting, and WOD's all in one. Or maybe you just want to do WOD's, that's ok too! And last but not least, the swag is epic. Who doesn't feel like a stud wearing a shirt that says Suns Out Guns Out. You will be missing out not only on opportunity to meet cool people, the massive gains you will make in your strength, endurance, and stamina. The ball is in your court, go try it out.

And they have been extremely UNRESPONSIVE. Nothing. Or they left me hanging and didn't answer my questions. It is clear this business could care less about attracting new clients and connecting. Also, if you're a beginner, they require you to pay for a safety course they make you take ON TOP of being a paying member already. Just money hungry.

The kids have a lot of fun and enjoy their time playing. We always have a seat but the bleachers are minimal compared to a high school gym. The bathrooms are reasonably maintained but could be nicer. I'm not sure who works at the gym and who works with the youth basketball league, so I can't comment on the staff or service other than we haven't had any problems with this location all season. There are a few vending machines that could use a few more healthy and natural options. We haven't been in the locker rooms, but they are on-site. I do wish they would open both doors, and not just one side, so people can go in and out at the same time. It's nice that the gym can be split so four teams can play and practice half-court or full-court at the same time. It's also nice that the rim height is adjustable. IMHO, it's a nice location for youth basketball!

I believe Big Bens Gym is run by one of Ben's older brothers David. The facility is very clean and holds AAU tournaments throughout the summer as well as hosts the VAIL Sports basketball league all year long. Only complaints I have are that the referees that the facility hires for the games are terrible most days and the gym can get pretty hot on those scorching summer days but for the most part the temperature is pretty average. There are concession stands most days and David will fry fish so if you're hungry I recommend getting the fried fish sandwich combo because that thing slaps!
