I’ve been at this gym a few times with my sister and this gym just makes you feel welcomed and judge free zone. The people there make you feel like family. The owner/coach is kind and fun!

I’ve been doing CrossFit for almost five years, and Kiowa Fitness has been an incredible part of my fitness journey. From the moment I walked in, I knew this gym was something special. The atmosphere is welcoming, supportive, and full of people who genuinely want to see each other succeed.
Shane, the owner, is an outstanding coach who truly cares about his members. He brings a wealth of knowledge, motivation, and energy to every class. Whether you’re brand new to CrossFit or a seasoned athlete, he meets you where you are and helps you push past your limits safely and effectively. His programming is challenging yet scalable, ensuring that everyone gets the most out of their workouts.
The one-hour classes are short, spicy, and leave you feeling accomplished. As a busy mom, this has been a game-changer. CrossFit at Kiowa has made me a stronger, healthier, and more confident mother—both physically and mentally. It gives me the energy I need to keep up with my kids and sets an example of hard work and perseverance for them.
Beyond the workouts, Kiowa fosters an amazing community. The camaraderie among members is unlike anything I’ve experienced at other gyms—everyone encourages each other, celebrates PRs, and makes even the toughest WODs enjoyable.
If you’re looking for a gym where you’ll be challenged, supported, and surrounded by great people, Kiowa Fitness is the place to be. Thanks to Shane and the Kiowa crew, I’ve grown stronger in every aspect of life, and I couldn’t be more grateful!

The gym has more than likely saved my life. I was just coming off a deployment where in all honesty being in decent shape wasn't a high priority of mine. I was able to still pass my physical fitness test (which at the time was 2 minutes of pushups, two minutes of situps and a 2 mile run), but nowhere near being able to max any event out, let alone coming close to the entire thing.
Fast forward to 2023 and the event was changed, geared more towards what I might see in combat. These events involves some simulated dragging of a casualty (sprint, drag, carry) , carrying heavy ammunition cans, being able to push off the ground over and over again from lying face down (hand release pushups), throwing a colleague up and over an obstscle (standing power throw), doing repeated heavy deadlifts, two mile run and plank. I told my boss my goal was to hit 500 out of 600 possible points. I ended up with a 521 in March of 2023. I took it again that October, and my score ended up at 556 out of 600. Last October (2024) I had taken it again at a different location. My total score had dropped 10 pts because my lack of cardio training leading up to it. Last summer I also injured my left shoulder during a competition. I was told to take it easy and I ended up with an MRI on NYE this past yr. The results ended up with a partial labrum and rotator cuff tear. Taking the fitness test in October didnt make the injury worse as I increased my hand release pushups and the power throw with no pain.
Bottom line is had I not been in the gym putting in the work I feel as though it's possible I could've ended with a complete tear of the shoulder. I'm thankful so much to be able to come to a place where I not only feel welcomed by brothers and sisters but my family. Being able to work out even having to modify almost anything involving weight lifting or rig work still saved my life.
I'm so humbled, thankful and honored to be a small part of community love and support

I just started. Shane is so patient with me and I feel good when I’m there and I look forward to my next visit.
You do not need to be a weight lifter to come here to Kiowa! I am learning to use muscles I haven’t used in a while.
Best investment in myself this year!

Been going here for years. Less like a gym, more like having an extra family. Great for all levels of fitness from super beginners to extreme athletes.

What comes to mind when I think about my experience at Kiowa fitness is top notch facilities, excellent coaching, convenient location and a welcoming environment. But what sets Kiowa apart is the excellent community they’ve cultivated. A community that’s built on trust, encouragement and lack of judgement. It’s a welcoming community for all fitness and skill levels and the various coaches and programs allow each athlete to pursue their goals while developing at their own pace with support throughout the process. I would recommend CrossFit Kiowa to anyone looking for a quality workout with quality people.

Kiowa Fitness is by far the best gym and fitness community in the area. Whether you are a top tier athlete or never exercised a day in your life, you will be welcomed, challenged and given the tools to become a better version of yourself. After being exposed to gyms around the country, I can say that Kiowa is the best overall environment for your fitness journey.

Shane has built a really great place. The coaches are encouraging, the class members all give you high fives and tell you good job at the end, and I love the whole app. Classes are never the same which I LOVE! My daughter is doing the kids Kiowa and loves that! She is so proud of herself when she is able to perform a move.
