CrossFit^® Astraea

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Astraea is not just a great gym with on point programming but a fantastic community with dedicated and experienced coaches. I've been to quite a few different CrossFit gyms around the world and the atmosphere in Astraea is hard to come by. Love this place and will be hitting PRs here for years to come.

Fantastic experience: Been training with Andrew for best part of 7 years now and was thrilled to see him open his own gym. The timetable is structured with plenty of classes allowing for a great deal of flexibility around busy jobs and busy lives. The kit within the gym is modern and meticulously selected for the tailored programming Andrew organises. I particularly enjoy being able to turn up, being told what to do for an hour and leaving feeling like I've worked hard - usually out of breath and covered in sweat. Workouts are scaled for all members allowing those competing at a near Olympic level to be working out next to a total beginner. Overall, I couldn't rate this place highly enough.

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Astraea is an incredible place to train! As someone new to CrossFit, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but from the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with open arms. The community here is friendly, supportive, and the energy is always high. The coaches are knowledgeable, and they really take the time to help you with technique and form, no matter your skill level. And everyone that trains here is warm and welcoming. I’ve learned so much and felt challenged in the best way possible. The workouts are tough but fun, and the atmosphere makes you want to keep coming back. Highly recommend this place whether you're new to CrossFit or experienced—it’s a great environment to push yourself and meet awesome people!

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym! Great place to drop in!

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Astrea offers everything you need and are looking for in a CrossFit facility, gym and society. I’ve never come across a more inclusive gym and friendly bunch of people in a fitness environment before. It is fully inclusive for every member and provides a great variety of equipment and programming to suit everyone. Great coaches, great banter and great members.

Fantastic experience: CrossFit used to intimidate me until I plucked up the courage to walk into Astrea, and I was instantly felt welcomed by the coaches and members. Have been a member for over 1 year now and I have never been so motivated to try new things. Every single one of the coaches knows your own abilities and potential which pushes you to do your best. I have gained so many friends and connections from Astrea that I cherish. When I’m at Astrea I’m loving it and when I’m away I have major FOMO. CrossFit is accessible for everyone at any stage of life, with experience or with 0 experience. Plus cute as hell merch and dog friendly

Fantastic experience: Andy & his team were so welcoming and kind to us when we dropped in. Nice, well-equiped and very clean box. Totally recommend comming here!

Fantastic experience: Called in for a drop in class whilst visiting Scotland . Felt very welcomed by everyone and Andrew’s coaching is absolutely spot on. Loved the workout and the gym is extremely well equipped, clean and spacious with excellent Shower facilities. Thanks again

Fantastic experience: 2024 update: somehow only getting better?!?!?!?! I am not exaggerating when I say this gym changed my life. 20/10 best place ever I started as a complete newbie in September with no real goals or idea what I was doing. All of the trainers here are absolutely astounding. They're so encouraging, supportive, and knowledgeable about all things fitness. For example, they're full of adaptations for injuries/flexibility/ability that deliver the same stimulus and still work towards recovery.They also know when and how to push you hard and safely. Andy (the owner) just friggin' rocks. The vibe is also awesome. This is the only crossfit gym I've been to so I don't know how it compares, but everyone here is super encouraging, competitive but in a fun way, and ultimately just good people. I never thought I'd be a gym person and now I absolutely love it, can't wait for the workout the next day basically as soon as I leave. If that's not an endorsement I don't know what is!

Fantastic experience: Astraea is my happy place! It's the perfect place to go after a long day to zone out for an hour, get a good sweat on, push yourself, and work towards that next goal or PB. All the coaches are super friendly and knowledgeable, they keep you right whether you're a total beginner or have been doing CrossFit for years. The gym is full of great quality kit and there's also a range of specialist classes (e.g. weighlifting and conditioning) to help progress your skills. It's always clean, there's a shower, toiletries, fresh towels, and a hairdryer all available for members to use. There's an awesome community at Astraea, everyone is so welcoming and you'll get to have a laugh even during the toughest workouts! Before you know it you'll be heading along to one of the gym nights out, cheering fellow Astraea members on at a competition, or competing yourself. If you're new to CrossFit or aren't sure if classes are for you, just get on down and try it out for a couple of weeks. You don't need to be 'fit' before you start, your coaches will help modify your workouts to suit your current abilities and accommodate any injuries. We all have to start somewhere, give it a try - you won't regret it!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been to this gym for 7months and that was such a terrific experience, big shout out to the coaches, for their kindness and caring. Definitely a 10/10 gym !

Fantastic experience: We were welcomed by Andy and the rest of the class as soon as we walked in for our drop in. Place is small but well thought out and equipped and we enjoyed our wod which was simple, effective and fun. Andy was very knowledgeable and professional and obviously has a passion for what he does and the people he does it for. Atmosphere was brilliant. Thanks to everyone for the experience, we would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful gym! Great atmosphere and very welcoming coaches and members! I recently visited Glasgow with my family and popped into CrossFit Astraea for two workouts and absolutely loved it!

Fantastic experience: The best gym! I had wanted to try CrossFit for a couple of years but always found the thought of it quite intimidating. When I joined Astraea everyone was so welcoming and friendly. I had barely picked up a barbell before I joined and Andy and all of the coaches were super patient and helpful. I have now been at Astraea for nearly 2 years and have met some great friends along the way. I have never been to a gym with such a great community vibe before. Can’t recommend Astraea enough- if you want to have fun but also workout and learn some new skills, Astraea is the gym for you.

Fantastic experience: Great gym for anyone of any fitness level. CrossFit always seemed daunting for me but Astraea coaches always encourage me to achieve my goals. Even if that goal is just turning up and having a laugh. Coaches are very knowledgeable and my form has come on leaps and bounds since I started. One of the best aspects of this gym is the members. All the members are so friendly and want everyone to do well. I regularly attend the 7am class where I see the usual faces and get a good sweat on. It’s the best way to start my day!

Fantastic experience: I had initial concerns about joining a CrossFit/class-based gym, as I've never felt entirely at ease in such environments. However, my experience has been incredibly positive, thanks to the welcoming and supportive nature of both the coaches and fellow members. Andrew and Cat, they both have been amazing. They ensure that I maintain proper form and modify workouts to suit my individual needs. I am genuinely thrilled with my CrossFit experience and wholeheartedly recommend this place.

Fantastic experience: Ive been a part of the Astraea family for nearly a full year. Through that year ive made so many friends. I look at myself 20kg lighter than I was in December of last year, thats just physically, emotionally its so much more as theres always been an ear available to talk to. I have been a member of so many different gyms over the years and never been happier than I am now. I've never felt comfortable enough to attend a gym night out, never mind share these photos. Our captain convinced me it was the right thing to do on both counts. You could offer me a free membership to any gym and i would still choose to pay for this gym as the community is one like ive never experienced and thats from the members to the coaches. I guess what i am trying to say I am grateful to be a part of something special. Never change Astraea

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Astraea for just over two years now after trying a different CrossFit gym which I found a bit cliquey. The knowledge and care the coaches have for each and every person is second to none! Not to mention the banter is great and my abs equally hurt from laughing

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend CrossFit Astraea highly enough! I have been so impressed by the community at the gym and everyone has been so welcoming. This has been my first time trying CrossFit and coaching staff and everyone in the sessions are so friendly and helpful in teaching me all the new movements. Andy has created a special place where you feel part of the group instantly.

Fantastic experience: I would recommend CrossFit Astrea to anyone and everyone ten times over. Andy has created the most fantastic community that was a pleasure to be a part of. The sessions are made friendly for all different abilities. Starting out I hadn’t done much CrossFit, all the coaches were so patient and so helpful explaining the moves to me. After our travels we will most definitely be returning!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been incredibly lucky to have had the coaches at Astraea help me return to fitness and CrossFit after a break and also while recovering from an injury. They kept me going when I really didn’t think I would be able to. The environment they create is welcoming, safe and inclusive for everyone. Positive vibes all around!!

Fantastic experience: Quite simply the best gym in the world! Andy and the other coaches have created an incredible place to train. I joined last year and it has had such a positive impact on my life. At Astraea the CrossFit coaching is amazing. I’m always developing and learning new things, totally confident that the coaches are professional and safe. The weekly yoga class is excellent too. Plus it’s just an incredible, motivating, supportive environment to be in❤️

Fantastic experience: Best CrossFit gym I’ve ever been to! Started here feeling very apprehensive, but Andy and the team have been so supportive and patient throughout. The community is fab and the workouts are really varied. You're always able to try something new, learn new skills through excellent coaching and also scale where you need to without any hassle. I recommend this CrossFit gym for total newbies and experienced cross fitters

Fantastic experience: Dopiero zaczęłam swą przygodę z crossfitem ale jestem pozytywnie zaskoczona . Już nauczyłam się wielu nowych rzeczy, a jeszce wiele przedemna ! Potrzebowałam nowego hobby w życiu, ponieważ czegoś mi brakowało- I oto Crossfit Astraea! Pozytywne jest to, że jako dziewczyna przychodzac sama na zajecia, czuje się bezpiecznie. Napewno z biegiem czasu zrobię update swojego nowego doświadczenia i napisze coś więcej. Magda:)

Fantastic experience: Such a friendly atmosphere with options to suit all levels. Varied workouts including technical focus, conditioning and partner workouts.

Fantastic experience: Visited from Sweden. Fantastic Box with everything you need! On top off that great Coaching, 100% hospitality and a great community! The place to be a better version of yourself in Glasgow!

Fantastic experience: Having never done any CrossFit before - I was welcomed to the gym with open arms, I have learned so much and gotten so much stronger. It’s more than just a gym, it’s definitely a community. Bradley

Fantastic experience: I’m new to CrossFit and this was a great place to start. All the coaches really know their stuff and are really encouraging too. Really friendly and welcoming environment also:). Would highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Unbelievable experience here. Me and my partner went along not knowing a thing about CrossFit! We were so fortunate to come across Andy the owner, he made us feel super comfortable and taught us so much. We sadly had to leave here for plans in Australia but we are now into CrossFit and want to continue our CrossFit journey wherever we might be. Would highly recommend! The only downside to this is that I’m annoyed I didn’t find this sooner! Thanks Andy, we’ll be back for sure!!

Fantastic experience: Such an amazing gym, community and friendly space. Such a great CrossFit box, made me feel really welcome from the first session. Coaching and workouts are always hard but fun, always encouraging enough at the right points & scaling back for you when you need it. Have already recommended it to others. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym. Great, friendly and inclusive membership and a knowledgeable and welcoming team. Doesn't matter if you are a die hard CrossFitter or new to CrossFit - you will be made welcome here. I have made great progress in my fitness and confidence in the last year.

Fantastic experience: I was very worried about joining a CrossFit/Class based gym as I never really feel comfortable in this sort of environment. I have found the coaches and members to be very welcoming and supportive making me feel comfortable from the start. I would strongly recommend this gym to anyone at any level :)

Fantastic experience: At first I was a bit sceptical about joining a CrossFit gym, thinking it would be cliquey and I wouldn't manage or enjoy the classes - this was not the case at all at Astraea! There is such a community feel with a welcoming and friendly atmosphere and the members are all so supportive! There is a wide range of classes available and the coaches are great, ensuring they cater to a range of abilities as well as modifying for any injuries. I'm so glad I joined and would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Walked into the unknowing when joining Astraea as I’ve never done CrossFit before. But Andy and the other brilliant coaches has made me feel welcome and at home. Tremendous community feeling in the gym as the others will make you feel like ur part of a family. Will really test you physically at times but wouldn’t have it any other way. I wish I done this years ago. If you are reading this and are unsure of what CrossFit gym to join like I was then look no further because you won’t find one like this!

Fantastic experience: This time last year I started looking for a CrossFit gym in the Glasgow area. The atmosphere, coaching, advice, workouts, all absolutely spot on so when it came to decision time, it wasn't too hard, it was Astraea all the way! I've been a member for almost a year now and made some great friends along the way. Excited for the future!

Fantastic experience: I was really nervous about joining CrossFit as I wasn’t sure it would be for me, but from my first session at Astraea, I was hooked. The coaches are so welcoming, encouraging and easily adapt movements to your fitness/skill level (which I was really nervous about to begin with). The sessions challenge me in new ways but are also incredibly fun - Astraea have restored my love for fitness again! In two months, my physical and mental fitness have improved so much already - I couldn’t recommend Astraea enough!

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Astraea is a really supportive and friendly environment. The atmosphere at classes is great. The coaches are very knowledgeable, really encouraging and are always helping you to improve. It has been really nice getting to know fellow members and coaches, and the classes are really enjoyable and varied. Since joining CrossFit Astraea, I have improved physically (strength, flexibility, injury avoidance) which definitely wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t joined. I would definitely recommend joining CrossFit Astraea!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym and community. :) I’ve been doing CrossFit almost 6 years and training at Astraea since 2020 and it’s like a second home and family, particularly as I work from home! The programming is excellent to help members progress and achieve their goals, whether that’s competing, getting fitter or just having a good sweat. Andy and his team genuinely care about members and are able to advise, encourage and also enjoy some cheeky banter.

Fantastic experience: Amazing coaching and really supportive environment.

Fantastic experience: Could not have felt more welcome starting at CrossFit Astraea. The coaches are top class and take the time to teach you everything you need to know at a pace that fits you!

Fantastic experience: 10/10 for murdering your muscles so they come back stronger (initial review - 2020) 2022 now and the gym has went from strength to strength Expansion and more coaches means there's more space, equipment and availability to attend Free access to btwb app with gym membership so you can monitor your gains and prepare efficiently for the workouts Great environment

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Astraea is the best gym to be a part of. Along with the brilliant facilities and amazing staff, the community is something special. In any class you attend, there is always someone to chat to and share a laugh with after a workout . I will always recommend Astraea to anyone wanting to drop in or to begin their crossfit journey.

Fantastic experience: Dropped Andy (owner) an email asking if I could visit the box over the Christmas period and he and his team were extremely accommodating. Great atmosphere and all the members were extremely welcoming! I've not met many coaches who has enthusiasm about fitness and CrossFit like Andy. The coaching at the box was on point, always offering advice and pointers during strength sessions and pushing you when needed during the WODs. Luckily, I visited when they had recently expanded and essentially doubled in size with more rig space and equipment! Look forward to coming back home to Glasgow in my next break and visiting the box again. CrossFit Astraea is everything a CrossFit box in the East-End of Glasgow should be!

Fantastic experience: If you’ve ever wanted to try CrossFit but thought you’re not fit enough or strong enough this is definitely the place to be. No matter what level of fitness or ability the Astraea coaches will make you feel comfortable and adapt any movements to suit. Without a shadow of a doubt the best quality coaching and inclusive environment I’ve ever trained in.

Fantastic experience: I moved to Glasgow last year and was on the look out for a new crossfit gym to replace my beloved old one. Andy at Astraea was so welcoming and friendly, but also very knowledgeable and encouraging. I signed up later that day and haven't looked back. Its a great gym, lovely wee community of like-minded people and very down to earth. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I’ve trained at CrossFit Astraea since it opened and cannot recommend the gym highly enough. I’m currently training with an Achilles injury and the coaches have been amazing at scaling and modifying all workouts so I can take part as I normally would. Andy and the team are playing a hugely positive role in both my physical and mental health rehab through all this. If you feel unsure about getting into weight training or think CrossFit isn’t for you then this is the gym and the community to change your mind.

Fantastic experience: One of the friendliest boxes I have ever been to with really knowledgeable coaches.

Fantastic experience: Amazing facility and staff always doing their best to make the hour in the gym the best hour of your day

Definitely recommend for those who are starting to practice CrossFit - there are even fundamentals courses to improve and learn important movements used in the sport. Also recommend for those who already practice this modality - community is great and will help you achieve your goals.

Fantastic experience: It’s only been a few months since joining Astraea but couldn’t recommend it enough. Andrew and the team are not only very supportive but incredibly welcoming. As someone completely new to the CrossFit I’m still finding my feet in sessions but the guidance and encouragement is second to none. The most wonderful bunch of people and couldn’t see myself anywhere else. Thanks Astraea

He know exactly my needs of what I want to achieve in training and I am getting great support from him and all members. You can find there only positive vibes and friendly atmosphere

Whether a total beginner, a pro or somewhere in between you'll get a great workout in with such encouraging and knowledgeable coaches and a range of equipment that is always super clean and well looked after. Andy and the Crossfit Astraea family have created such a great community in Glasgow - can't wait to visit them again soon :)

Fantastic experience: Great gym, really welcoming and had well thought out processes in place for all of the COVID concerns!

Fantastic experience: Great community vibe! I dropped in whilst visiting family in Glasgow. I attend a small community box in Copenhagen and this place had a really similar vibe. I will be going back for sure! Plus there were 2 cute fluffy Corgis cheering you on!! So really that was the icing on top of the barbell for me!

Fantastic experience: Glasgow Astraea is an amazing place to train regardless of your crossfit ability. Andy, the head coach, is at the top of his game. His programming is spot on and he has an incredible ability of getting the most out of his members. So whether its your first crossfit session or you are seasoned pro, Glasgow Astraea is the gym for you and i can guarantee Andy and his memebers will welcome you with open arms.

Fantastic experience: Great box run by great people. I dropped in when visiting home and had a great workout with Andy and his team. He was super flexible with my tight schedule and was happy to work around me. He and his team have a great enthusiasm for the sport. And the 2 wee corgis are a real plus! Would recommend to anyone looking for a good CrossFit gym in Glasgow!

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Astraea is a great gym and it's super clean and welcoming. Andy is such a fab coach and you're always encouraged, supported and motivated to get exactly what you want from the class while also having lots of fun! I would 100% recommend Astraea to anyone new to CrossFit or who has been doing it a while, you'll definitely have a fab, sweaty work out either way

Fantastic experience: Glasgow Astrea has to be one of the friendliest, most community driven boxes in Scotland. A fantastic team led by Andy with an unparalleled spirit for physical and mental reinforcement.
