I had so much fun meeting my new PR today in the sumo deadlift at Aquila. I never thought I’d be into lifting, but Justin, and the gym he's created with the amazing team, are so welcoming and supportive. I have told many ppl how amazed and supported I’ve felt at this gym, with there never being any microscopic hint of women being less important because we generally aren’t as strong. So thank you very much Justin for the welcoming space you have created and for your unwavering “yes”-ness today.

I've belonged to Aquila since 2017 and I have been working out for almost 40 years of my life. This is not your average Cross Fit Gym and I'll explain why. When I started at Aquila they had a class that was required (and I believe still is) for new clients. They actually apologized to me explain they knew I had done many of the exercises before, but they were big on technique and safety and that was their on boarding policy for new Members. I didn't fight them and was actually glad; I hadn't dead lifted in years. The point is, in my Chiropractic practice I often see people hurt that start Cross Fit, later to find out they just jumped right in. This Gym is about fitness and safety/technique, something lacking in the competitive exercise world.The other key point to this facility are the Members. You are joining a family when you join the Aquila Team. I often joke I go 80% for the members and 20% for the workout. The point is if you are looking for a CLEAN, safe, client focused gym where you actually feel like you are part of something, this is your place. It is way more than a workout, it's a group of trainers and members that want to stay in shape and on occasion have a little fun. Even if for some reason I couldn't workout, I would still go to hangout, that's how great this place really is.

Training at Aquila Fitness is like riding two jet skis, but one jet ski is a rhinoceros that farts lightning and the other jet ski is two jet skis. If I trained at another gym, I'd punch that gym in the face and come train at Aquila. Great people, great atmosphere, great equipment!

I really appreciate the welcoming environment at Aquila. The trainers care about the members, and there's a strong sense of community. It's hard to join a new gym, but I never felt judged.

A positive place where your peers and the owners are generous with their knowledge and are more interested in your life than the monthly dues. The members are encouraging and the vibe is very positive.

Fantastic workout. Travis and Justin were incredible and had fantastic tips on conventional deadlift form. The overall workout left me challenged with baby giraffe legs.

I have been going to this gym for two years. I had never done CF before, so needless to say I was intimidated at the thought of trying to do it. I had been working out on my own for years but I wanted to try something new. I had looked at several CF gyms and tried them out but was unsure if I liked them since I had no reference of what a CF gym was supposed to be like. However, when I walked into Aquila I was treated professionally and all of my concerns were addressed about trying something new and being unsure of my ability. I also liked the gym space and the people welcomed me right away. It felt comfortable and I did not feel like I shouldn’t be there even though it was all brand new. Throughout my time there I gained so much knowledge about lifting correctly, gained strength in ways I did not know I could, and I developed a real sense of community with the coaches and other members.

There are so many great things about Aquila Fitness I don't know where to start. This place creates a community that makes you want to come in and work hard. I can honestly say I know almost everyone's name when I go to work out and we all support and challenge each other. If you have had trouble commiting to a fitness routine come try Aquila Fitness. You build friendships that make it fun and rewarding to get to class each day. A major factor that makes Aquila Fitness
