“I cannot express enough how welcoming Town Athletics has been! I came to the gym during a Friends and Family week, where members could invite others to see what Town was all about. I had never done CrossFit before and frankly, I was a bit intimidated. This apprehension disappeared on day one! The coaches are the best of the best, and the programming is thoughtful and unique. As a beginner, they make sure I understand the lifts and workouts (scaled to my level while also being challenging). The atmosphere is so supportive, and members are very friendly and inspiring. Because I jumped right in to regular workouts (usually there is an onboarding process), I have also taken a few private sessions with Coach Cole…he is amazing, so knowledgeable, patient, and a great instructor. He has a very good way of coaching that I have responded well to. If you have ever wanted to join a CrossFit gym that is challenging, supportive, and fun, Town Athletics is it!”

“I've been at The Training Pit for almost 2 years. I train with both Seth and Vanessa, and have done nutrition coaching with Seth as well.When I first started, I had some metabolic improvements to make based upon lab work I had done. As of today, my lab work is pristine - All thanks to Seth and his guidance. Not to mention all of the muscle I've been able to build through the strength, mobility, corrective work, and superior programming from training with Seth and Vanessa.Words cannot describe how grateful I am to get to work with Seth and Vanessa and be a part of this community!”

“Such a huge fan of Vie. I was so nervous to get back to my active lifestyle after a knee surgery and having my son. But the coaches are all so great. They meet you where you are and it’s nothing but positive, encouraging vibes for all women here. Highly recommend”

“Well-equipped climbing gym with decent route setting. A bit dusty and grimy, but there’s a tight climbing community here. Good gym to top up your fitness while in Tacoma. This gym is definitely better equipped for bouldering rather than roped climbing.”

“If you are looking to learn some new skills or just working on fitness, if you are looking for a family friendly gym LOOK NO FURTHER! THIS IS IT LOL!!! I am sooo happy I found this place. It started off as I just wanted to do it for fitness. Then my 17yr old and my 8yr old joined. Now we are here almost everyday! Just learning everything we can. Both of my sons are training in boxing and jiu jitsu. Drew and Brandon as well as EVERYONE there are sooo welcoming and friendly. I am grateful! Not to mention a FAMILY FRIENDLY environment. I get to workout and also my sons get their practice in. I do boxing with my 17yr old. You really can't beat that!”

“Kari was great! Very engaged throughout class! She led us thru warm ups to get us ready for the workout, and did an awesome job during class ensuring everyone was motivated thru the class!”

“Love this gym. It’s exactly what I was looking for. A gritty, motivating atmosphere with plenty of high level equipment that you won’t find in most gyms. It doesn’t have that soft, corny feel of a commercial gym. If gladiators were still a thing, this is the type of gym they would train at.”

“This place is 5*. Great coaches and people. I go for the "crossfit" style HIIT workouts they have during the day. What I like about Tacoma Strength is they focus more on Olympic lifting with less of the weird "hand stand pushup" type crossfit exercises in their HIIT classes. The saturday class is the best.”

“I have been going to Taiso for almost four years now, and I cannot say enough positive things about this gym. Butch and Jennifer are encouraging and enthusiastic about the work they do--they're also both just really phenomenal people all around. It is a safe environment where you can come as you are, and you will quickly feel like you are a part of a big family. Many of the folks there have become my lifelong friends. Plus, the classes are amazing--you will definitely be challenged if you put the effort in, and it honestly feels like grown-up gym class (without the awkwardness). Cannot recommend Taiso enough.”

“Incredibly thankful for a space that embraces you wherever you are in life. I've been to a couple of gyms, typically CrossFit, in my life. I am now a mother of 2 and previously had a career as a first responder. Life has clearly changed, a lot, and if I'm being completely honest I've been chronically stressed. So, having found a space to move my body and clear my mind in a gentle way has been a breath of fresh air and something I've never experienced before within a gym setting. I appreciate that warm up/cool downs are programmed into the gym time so that I'm not having to show up earlier/stay late to complete them and it makes a world of a difference to start each class with a fun way to get to know others in the gym via their Question Of The Day. I've been a member with Ascent for a couple of months now and the workouts meet me where I'm at while also being a challenge without an ounce of pressure to push myself to injury. My former gym experiences have typically looked like loud music, a lot of competition, mirrors & scales, everyone "looks the same", rigid workouts, larger class sizes and lacking in accessibility. The coaches and staff at Ascent have been nothing but kind and educated. I've been really impressed and thankful to see offerings like "Low Impact Small Group" which is great for those seeking a slower pace/limited mobility/pre or post giving birth IE, or Sound Bath Meditation. Ascent Fitness has proved themselves to be genuinely caring about ones mental health, being community focused + driven, and supportive of ones journey through life.. Thank you Ascent Fitness for changing my life in an incredibly positive way.”

“Im not gonna lie…. I was pretty out of shape when I first started here and I def had no idea what I was doing. It’s been a few months and not only have a lost quite a bit of weight, but I’ve gained so much muscle! The staff are all really fun and helpful people… I cannot say enough about this place. If you’re on the fence about trying it out, don’t be! I wish I would have signed up sooner ?”

“Tried Spanaway Fitness for the first time and it was a pleasant experience! Tons of great machines and the powerlifting side is great. I went on a Saturday night and it was empty so it was nice to be able to try lots of machines. Will definitely be coming back soon!”

“This fitness center has been one of the best decisions I have made . They are extremely friendly and motivating . My mom and I take a Zumba/Cardio class in the morning and it’s so much fun along with the great opportunity to bond with my mom. They have several classes and have a way to get their clients to stay on top of their health ♥️ Recommend this center 100% !”

“This is my favorite Anytime Fitness in the state. I travel across the state and use a bunch of them, but I often travel 30+ miles out of the way to come here. It's never too crowded, they have a good selection of equipment, it's clean. I have plenty more to say about this gym but I'm mid set right now. I just wanted everyone to know that the environment is amazing here for both newbies and power lifters alike. When my membership from my other gym is up, I'm renewing it here for sure.”

“I had my first cycle class experience this week at Handlebar. The vibes are immaculate. Fun music, engaging and challenging workout, and Steve is super friendly. A someone who never does any form of cardio and definitely isn’t the definition of “highly fit,” its challenging for me to enjoy a workout class, but I was hooked after the first class!”

“By far the best CrossFit gym I’ve been to. The instructors are professional and down to earth. They are very knowledgeable and give spot on guidance on how to properly conduct the workout and the correct position your body needs to be to prevent injury. If you are in the Tacoma area I would highly recommend you try this gym.”

“I love this YMCA. The employees there have slowly turned into my good friends over time. I love working out and chatting with them before and after my workout. I particularly want to shout out Tiffany, Rowdy, Milana, Eileen, Amanda, and Bryce for being so inclusive and a joy to talk to”
