Fantastic experience: Coastside CrossFit - what a place!! 2 boxes, offering something like 13 separate classes per day and weekends, spread across both boxes with a mixture of traditional CrossFit classes, gymnastics, weightlifting, metabolic conditioning, Hyrox, body building, mobility, cardio clubs, and team workouts. All superbly coached by top level coaches and high performance athletes in their own right. The community that has been created at Coastside is unique, with friends made for life.

Fantastic experience: Before I joined Coastside I always found Crossfit gyms intimidating... But Coastside's amazing coaches and friendly members make it such a welcoming and supportive atmosphere! I never used to be a morning person but now I can't wait to get down the box, learn something new and do a little workout amongst friends. It's the best start to the day!

Fantastic experience: Joining Coastside CrossFit in December 2022 was an absolute game-changer for me! I was inspired by the infectious enthusiasm of my husband and our teenage dynamo, who couldn't stop talking about their workouts. Their excitement sparked something in me that I just had to explore. From the moment I set foot in Coastside, I felt like part of the family. The community here is incredible, and the range of workouts is so diverse. As a woman, having this variety is fantastic because it allows me to pick the best workout for me, especially considering my cycle and hormonal changes. ‍♀️️‍♀️ I really hope every woman gets the chance to experience the same level of support and flexibility in their fitness journey. The coaches at Coastside have been absolute rockstars. Despite my struggles with upper body strength, they've patiently guided me every step of the way. Thanks to their expertise and encouragement, I've made some serious progress over the past year. Now, I feel stronger and more confident than ever! But what truly makes Coastside special is the sense of camaraderie among members. The friendships I've formed here are priceless, and my workout buddies and coaches feel like family. They've been my biggest motivators, always pushing me to give it my all. And let me tell you, our coaches are the real deal! Not only do they have amazing bodies themselves (seriously, they look like they're photoshopped!), but they also bring a cheeky sense of humour to every session. It's impossible not to have a laugh while breaking a sweat! The best part of last year was definitely the Saturday beach workouts! ️ I cannot wait and silently hoping that this year Liam will do them again. There's just something about working out by the sea that makes everything even more enjoyable. I'm so excited for the future at Coastside CrossFit. With the support of the amazing coaches and this incredible community, I know there's no limit to what I can achieve. Here's to many more years of growth and empowerment!

Fantastic experience: Unleashing Potential at Coastside CrossFit As a member of Coastside CrossFit since July 2023, I can confidently say that my journey here has been nothing short of incredible. When I first joined, I never imagined that at the age of 40, I would be confidently handstand walking and continuously pushing my limits. Over the past year, I've become completely hooked on the workouts and the supportive community. Each week, I see improvements in my lifts, technique, and overall fitness level. What sets Coastside CrossFit apart is Coach Liam's dedication to his craft. His passion, engagement, and hard work are truly admirable. Recently, Liam opened another box where members can focus on refining their techniques, gymnastics skills, and participate in mobility sessions. This additional space also allows for open training, giving members the freedom to work on individual goals. It's mind-blowing how Liam manages to run both boxes with such precision and dedication. The entire team of coaches at Coastside CrossFit is simply outstanding. Each coach brings a unique set of skills and knowledge to the table, and they're all passionate about sharing their expertise with others. It's evident that they genuinely care about the progress and well-being of every member. As I look forward to more training sessions, I'm excited about the progress I'll continue to make and achieving that "summer shredded" body. I'm incredibly grateful to Liam and all the coaches at Coastside CrossFit for creating such an inspiring and supportive space. Thank you for helping me surpass my limits and become the best version of myself.

Fantastic experience: I can't recommend coastside highly enough! From the moment I stepped through the door, I felt welcomed into a supportive community where friendships and comaradery is in abundance. What sets Coastside apart is their unique ability to make each class feel like a personalized 1-2-1 session. Despite the group setting, the coaches take the time to understand individual goals and tailor their guidance accordinly. The workouts are never dull thanks to the constantly varied programming, keeping both body and mind engaged. But what truly stands out is the depth of knowledge and expertise possessed by all the coaches. Their guidance is not only invaluable during workouts but also extends to mobility, recovery and overall wellness. Whether you're a a veteran in the gym or just starting your fitness journey, Coastside is the place to be. Joining this community has been one of the best decisions I've ever made, and I'm grateful for the friendships formed, the personal milestones achieved, and the unwavering support from the incredible coaches.

Fantastic experience: For anyone on the fence if crossfit is right for you, get yourself to coastside. I joined 5 months ago, unfit, no strength and full of anxiety about trying crossfit. As soon as I stepped through the door, looking like a deer in headlights, smiles met me and everyone made me feel welcome. The coaches are brilliant always on hand to scale movements and teach me. But also everyone in the class has helped me learn and encouraged me to push myself further. Best decision I've made for myself.

David Langridge 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Coastside is full of fantastic people and amazing coaches. Ive trained ni many places and this has been the best experience. I am not there currently due to injury from another sport but do hope to return soon. 100% recommend this place for any one, no matter your ability or age. They will welcome you and make you feel cosy.

Joy Bruce 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I joined Coastside Crossfit when Liam Hogan first opened 'the old box' which it's now referred to as, in Southbourne. In what feels like no time, Liam has invested his blood, sweat (and tears I am sure!) into growing a community, and 2 spaces for us to train in, as well as a team of awesome coaches, to help us all on our fitness journeys. I love being part of a community where the coaches and your team mates genuinely care about you and praise you as you progress in your own time. Liam personally programmes dozens of classes each week, and I am amazed at how he is able to support the needs of all abilities at the same time - from our newbie teens (my daughter included) through to the 'real crossfitters' at competition level. Nobody has to feel uncomfortable coming into our box, as they will always be embraced with welcoming faces, rather than the stigma of being surrounded by weight lifters and people swinging from bars! Liam is knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about both fitness, and his members in equal measures. This is definitely evident in the way he has managed to create a box better than any other we have trained in. If you are looking to start your fitness journey, or are already training in a gym, but are looking for more of a social community, with 1-2-1 coaching and support, why not drop in and try Coastside Crossfit. You will only have to do one class to get hooked, be warned.

Krzysztof Radecki 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of Coastside CrossFit for a while now, and I can confidently say it's not just a gym; it's a community, a lifestyle, and a beacon of fitness excellence on the South Coast of England. Owned and led by a dedicated individual who pours heart, soul, and resources into making it the best, Coastside CrossFit stands out for its commitment to its members' growth and well-being. The recent addition of a second specialized studio for gymnastics, weightlifting, and mobility sessions demonstrates their unwavering dedication to providing top-notch facilities and tailored experiences. As an official CrossFit and Hyrox affiliate, Coastside offers a unique blend of training opportunities, catering to both beginners and seasoned athletes alike. Whether you're looking to dive into fitness racing or simply aiming to surpass your personal best, Coastside has you covered. What truly sets Coastside apart, however, is its phenomenal team of coaches. Their expertise, passion, and unwavering support ensure that every class is not only effective but also enjoyable. Plus, the inclusion of two newsletters per week—packed with schedule updates, motivation, and technique tips—adds an extra layer of value to the membership package. But perhaps the most remarkable aspect of Coastside CrossFit is its sense of community. Here, everyone is welcome, regardless of fitness level or background. The coaches tailor the programming to suit each individual, fostering a supportive environment where progress is inevitable. If you're looking for more than just a place to work out—if you crave a sense of belonging, camaraderie, and continuous growth—look no further than Coastside CrossFit. Join us, and let's embark on this fitness journey together. Ps. We do Beach WODs too

Fantastic experience: Friendly welcoming environment, awesome coaches that really know their stuff who can help you from beginner all the way to advanced. Facilities are great with new equipment being added all the time. Every session is well planned and you can tell a lot of care and effort is being put into the workout schedule. When I first started I thought it might be overwhelming, however the coaches break everything down so it’s easy to understand and you can do it at any level of fitness. Overall it’s a great community of people, the coaches are amazing and it’s a good laugh too! Can’t recommend it enough, wish I’d started sooner!

Manos Stamatakis 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I joined Coastside CrossFit two years ago, and I was skeptical at first, not knowing what I was really walking into. However, I only wished I had started sooner. The coaches are not only knowledgeable but also incredibly welcoming, embodying a sense of community that is hard to find elsewhere, especially in commercial gyms. The accountability here is next level; it pushes you to achieve more than you thought was possible. This has helped me work on certain goals that I would have potentially never had the desire to pursue if it were not for the coaches. My strength gains have been impressive, thanks to their well-structured workouts and guidance. If you're looking for a supportive fitness community with experienced coaches, this is the place to be!

Fantastic experience: The MOST inclusive and friendly gym I have ever been to, the Coaches here are by far the best I have ever experienced and all the equipment is the best in the business. I cannot recommend Coastside enough, from absolute beginner to elite athletes they have really nailed down every aspect of fitness and made it fun. There is a reason why a good portion of the members at this gym are PTs.... because it is the best in the area by miles! Thank you Coastside for creating such a wonderful and inspiring environment to train, meet friends and socialise in. Taking a free taster session was the best thing i have done since moving back to the area.
