There are no instructors - you follow a video on a tv, and you work out in a personal cube that fits up to 3 people. The cube are tiny and at any time another person may jump into your cube and do a session with you. I prefer the motivation and guidance of a trainer. This felt like something out of a Black Mirror

I visited CrossFits EX to get information before starting a free session. My experience in the past…read morewith Crossfit is that they are very picky as to your fitness level, so I wanted to make sure this was a welcoming place for beginners. The person who greeted me informed me that the classes were for all fitness levels and it is for all ages. I was told to come with my daughter, who they also said was welcome, so that we could try it out. Once I got to the class, we were separated from the other class members (was told classes were at your pace) in a private session. In the end, I was told my daughter, who is turning 12, was too young and could only do private sessions, and I should also do private sessions for at least 6 classes (for us both, this would be over $160 a session). I see they have happy customers, but I am sure they all must have come in fit or done their private sessions as suggested. I would not recommend this place if you are starting your fitness journey. You can get private training at a gym and some of the more beginning-level-welcoming CrossFit gyms. If CrossFit is your sport of choice and EX is the closest to your house, I am sure they will welcome you in once you are all fit and ready for their classes. In my case, a place that says I am welcome but treats my fitness level like a problem will never get any of my money

I am an experience 'CrossFitter' and have dropped in to other places while travelling, and I have never felt as welcome as I did here. Gordon the owner/coach and all of his staff were knowledgeable, helpful and made everyone there feel awesome. I dropped in four days in a row and even did Yoga for the first time after the WOD on the fourth day. The facility is a good size, certainly not tiny, but not too open/big. It was organized and very clean, obvious that they maintain the place well. Thanks for the great hospitality CrossFit EX! I will definitely drop in again if in town.

The online registration and class reservation was a breeze. Miles (the coach) greeted us when we arrived and helped get us assimilated to the gym, equipment, and group. He did a great job providing an overview of what to expect, direction on form when needed, and was encouraging/motivating throughout the session. The experience was much better than I expected my first out of state drop in to be. I am certainly coming back each time I'm in town. I highly recommend for all levels -- it's a friendly, supportive environment. Thanks for the wonderful workout !

Harbor, the coach/owner was super welcoming and friendly and all of the members were super friendly too. It was a Saturday so the workout was a four partner workout which was pretty fun, I had never done more than a group of 3 so that was cool. It basically had EVERYTHING in it - doubles, pull-ups, running, toes to bar, wall balls, and was a terrific workout. The space is huge as I mentioned, clean, and has everything you need plus some extra perks like a peg board. I accidentally left my knee sleeves there too and Harbor was nice enough to mail them back to me which was great. I would absolutely drop in here again and recommend it to check out for Atlanta locals!
