My experience at Kawi CrossFit had its highs and lows. While the workouts were effective, the rules could have been clearer, particularly concerning unlimited class membership. Even with unlimited access, booking through the Wodify app is necessary, and a full class means you're out of luck. Additional charges for no-shows or late cancellations could be more flexible to account for unexpected situations.An issue arose when they failed to check me into the class via their Wodify app, resulting in an auto no-show fee on my card on file. Despite my attempts to address this through a correction request, unfortunately, my concerns remained unaddressed. If these issues can be resolved, it could significantly improve the overall experience at Kawi CrossFit for everyone.

The community is supportive, coaching is impersonal, rarely was there enough equipment for the entire class. It’s a good gym but could be better.

Kawi has the best community of athletes from all walks of life. From the beginner athlete to the competitive athlete, you can find it here. There is plenty of equipment and the gym is extremely spacious with access to some outdoor space. The coaches at Kawi are knowledgeable and offer a great workout experience.I would highly recommend Kawi!

I absolutely love Kawi.When I first moved to Austin, neither my fiancé nor I knew anyone in the area. We decided to try out Kawi CrossFit one day and have not looked back since.The owner, Nader, was exceptionally welcoming and kind. He extended us an invite to a member social right away so we would have the opportunity to connect with others from the gym. Many of my friends I now have in Austin, were made through my experiences at Kawi. I truly look forward to going everyday.In particular, I really enjoy Kawi because they welcome those interested in CrossFit no matter where they are in their journey–if you are a beginner (like I was) or more intermediate/advanced–this spot is for you. The workouts and individuals that work there are always sure to accommodate the needs of anyone in attendance. I highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a new gym!

This is one of the most welcoming gyms I’ve ever been to. The head coach Nader is knowledgeable and charming. I’d still be training there to this day if I hadn’t moved to another state 10/10

Kawi is the only crossfit gym I've known where the workouts are consistently creative! They signify areas where I need to improve myself and show where I deserve to credit myself.It's is a young gym; starting up shortly before COVID, and surviving it. Thats says a lot!Nothing but strong vibes, vitality, and reinforcing challenge!

The best community, best location and best coaches all in one location. You can’t ask for much more. Dropped in when I was in from California and always got taken care of. Only fitting I joined when I finally moved to Austin.

The equipment is great and we’ll maintained, the members are dope, and the location is prime but Nader is what makes this place special. I’ve never had such good instruction coupled with the inviting spirit created by this man. You won’t regret being a part of this gym. I promise.

The programming in this gym is freaking awesome. The work is challenging and pushes you to be better. It also won’t destroy your body so If you do multiple days a week you can recover. Nader runs a tight shop and is passionate about your health and fitness. The classes are always full of people pushing each other to be better and with the partner workouts it creates an opportunity to make new friends and also test yourself. Lots of good times and moments where your gasping for air. He also incorporates a lot of running which is my biggest weakness so it forces me to try more. Great place to be! Kawi!

Ok, so this review is for anyone wanting to try crossfit for the first time or for someone who is maybe a beginner but intimidated by the rep that most boxes have. Kawi is far and away the most chill, welcoming, and positive vibe crossfit gym I've been to and an absolutely wonderful place to learn the ropes. Whether your goal is to come a few times a week to build strength and endurance over time or you're looking to scale up as a serious athlete, Kawi is the place you want to be.Everyone is super approachable and friendly. The facility is well equipped, spacious, and always clean. The programming is top notch with very real effort put into developing continuity in training cycles, but always fresh and interesting. The coaches put great effort into helping everyone scale to their needs, learn various movements, and understand the workouts themselves.The most important thing though: there is ZERO judgment at this gym. Doesn't matter if you've never picked up a dumbbell or have been olympic lifting for years. Doesn't matter if you're bench pressing an empty bar or loading it up as heavy as it can go. Doesn't matter if you can run a marathon or are still working on jogging for a block. Everyone at Kawi is in it together. We don't just lift weights, we lift each other up!
