NWK Maidstone

Fantastic experience: Super friendly community and classes are absolutely excellent. Crossfit, gymnastics (so fun!) and bootcamp sessions are always an excellent challenge with the best support and motivation from all of the coaches to meet you at your level. An absolute must is the 1:1 and barbell classes with Cheryl Crosbie - her technical knowledge and teaching is absolutely next level and has transformed my lifting in only a few months! Thank you to all the team at NWK - ye are magic! ✨️

Fantastic experience: I started my CrossFit journey a month ago and haven’t looked back. The coaches are excellent, programming spot on and the community is awesome. I’m learning and doing things I never thought my body would be able to do and as a 40+ year old I can honestly say that I have never felt stronger both physically and mentally. Don’t procrastinate - get down, try it out and you’ll be signing up straight away. Thank you, NWK.

Fantastic experience: I joined NWK for a few classes while I was in Maidstone visiting family. Everyone is so lovely, very welcoming and friendly and the coaching is excellent! I will definitely be back when I'm in Maidstone next. Thank you all

Fantastic experience: The best gym I have ever been a member of. Having trained at numerous gyms in and around Kent, this is honestly the most welcoming, supportive and friendly whilst providing the best coaching. After every workout I leave feeling so positive having learnt new skills and having challenged my physical and mental resolve. The place to be to improve yourself.

Fantastic experience: Excellent facilities and warm reception from everyone at the gym. I did a drop in class, whilst working away and was made to feel right at home. Would def recommend this gym to anyone. Cheers folks.

Fantastic experience: I have absolutely loved my time at NWK. This was my first experience of CrossFit and I feel I’m hooked for life. I’m moving back to Wales at the end of the month so sadly my time with NWK has to come to an end but I’m leaving with new skills and the confidence to start fresh in a new place. All the coaches are attentive, friendly and patient. I felt part of the community quickly which I feel is a true reflection of the culture the NWK team have successful established and it’s been a great way to meet new people, particularly not being from the area. Thank you all, its been fab

Fantastic experience: I joined NWK in April after moving to Maidstone. I had never done CrossFit before but the welcoming atmosphere, great workouts and excellent coaches made me an instant addict. Best decision I made in 2023!!

Fantastic experience: I was always someone who enjoyed gym classes and had previously considered CrossFit but was worried it would be very competitive. However, at NWK the only person you are competing against is yourself. The coaches and members are incredibly supportive and push you to achieve your best, with everyone encouraging each other. Seeing yourself improve week by week is so rewarding and this is down to the incredible coaches, every single one of them! They break down the movements and form to make sure everyone feels comfortable and confident, taking extra time with you if you need. Not only this, they make it fun and enjoyable (and throw a killer Xmas party). I have made some amazing friends at NWK that I see in and out of the gym. There is something for everyone whether it’s CrossFit, barbell or Bootcamp. Being a member of NWK has pushed me to achieve things in terms of fitness and sign up to competitions I would never have had the courage to do and I can safely say there’s no going back to a regular gym for me!

Fantastic experience: I frikin love this place. It truly accepts everyone so there's no need to feel concern that you might not fit in or that you're "not as fit" as other members. We all started from zero, and that's ok! There is no pressure to have a goal or get a Personal Best, you don't have to log anything at all. You can just turn up and have a great time with some great supportive people and some wonderfully knowledgeable coaches who are always there in your class to help you through anything you don't understand, and to make sure you are safe. Sport can be fun, and I'm someone who wasn't ever interested in any sport in school, but I have stuck at CrossFit for nearly 10 years, because it's just such good fun!!

Fantastic experience: From day one this has been the most welcoming gym. The entire team at NWK are committed to making sure everyone who attends has the best training experience possible. The programme is fantastic and has really helped me excel in all areas. The friendly atmosphere and community spirit has also developed my social life. This is so much more than a gym! You won't regret joining!

Fantastic experience: I visited NWK Maidstone Crossfit for several drop-in sessions whilst travelling to the UK. What a fantastic box! Superb coaching, great programming, excellent gear, and a thoroughly warm friendly bunch of people! It was a highlight of my trip. Highly recommend and will definitely be dropping in again during future visits! Thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: I first visited NWK over a year ago, to try out CrossFit for the first time. I have been a member at NWK ever since, not just for CrossFit, but also for: the amazing coaches; the fun classes; the challenging workouts; the awesome community; the excellent facilities; the impressive range of equipment; the best people; the GOOD VIBES. Don’t over think it, just join

Fantastic experience: I only joined NWK back in May but I can honestly say it’s the best decision I’ve made. It truly is special and this picture just sums up the community this place has! I walked in nervous (not able to do a pull up, or a handstand!) but I needn’t be. The people are what make this place special. No matter what you can or can’t do, everyone is cheered on and challenged to do things that they never thought they’d do (trust me!) I’ve made so many good friends, and look forward to every session. If you are even slightly on the fence about trying CrossFit I honestly couldn’t recommend NWK more! You won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience: Prior to joining NWK I struggled to keep myself accountable by getting off my arse and going to the gym, having a gym membership for a few months before cancelling. Fast forward and I’ve now been with NWK for over 2 years, attending regularly, I can honestly say it’s the best decision I’ve made. Whether it’s Bootcamp with Coach Briony or Barbell with Coach Cheryl, there really is something for everyone. I’ve found that all of the coaches will make time for you to help advise on movements, diets etc. Sessions are always fun and I’ve made some great friends through NWK. This place is open to everyone and I would 100% recommend to anyone!

Fantastic experience: What can we say about NWK Maidstone? From the moment I walked through the doors, I have felt nothing but welcome and a genuine sense of belonging. The team of coaches not only provide excellent advice and encouragement, but they also actively participate in the class, sharing in your struggles and successes. They motivate you to push beyond your self-imposed limits and know when to pause, reassess, and then move forward. This mindset is deeply ingrained in the day-to-day activities at NWK Maidstone. The coaches come from diverse backgrounds, bringing a wealth of experience and knowledge. Let's not forget the in-house recovery team, including dedicated physiotherapists who are available for advice. It is truly a pleasure and privilege to be a member of NWK Maidstone.

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking for a workout space/gym then look no further. I’ve been a member for a year now and can honestly say the coaching staff and other members have made it a really enjoyable year! I’m not a natural cross fitter but the coaches can’t do enough to help you better your movements and achieve new things on a regular basis. I love being part of something where the last person to finish gets a bigger cheer than the person coming first, there’s no age or size discrimination, the sport really is open to all. If you feel uncomfortable in a standard gym then NWK is for you and also, if you want to push yourself and your fitness enter one of the competitions they hold. Great atmosphere, great people, love it!!

Fantastic experience: The community vibe at NWK is like no other. The attention to detail the coaches pay, along with everyone supporting each other to do their best is just second to none. Made friends for life as well!

Fantastic experience: Hi big thanks to Cheryl, She is a coach at NWK maidstone and She helped me out with work out techniques for a recent session. It was also a full class and she found the time, it seemed nothing was to much trouble. awesome thanks again!!!

Fantastic experience: The most friendly and welcoming environment, the nicest community you’ll meet. Exercise and social at the same time ☺️.

Fantastic experience: It’s rare to find a gym with this much heart. I was sceptical going into CrossFit - as an ex-powerlifter and strength-based athlete with terrible endurance and asthma… I wasn’t sure if it would be the sport for me. However, this lil gym has become like a family and I couldn’t rate the coaches or other members more highly. It genuinely doesn’t matter your ability, all they care about is an open mind and willingness to learn. And it’s easy to be fearful of new gyms, especially ones where it seems like everyone’s become part monkey, but you will not meet a group of people more welcoming or willing to help show you to the dark side. The support and growth I’ve experienced since joining is incomparable. Your hands might take a beating and you’ll be shaving down calluses you didn’t know were even possible to acquire, but NWK will capture your heart and make you fall head over heels in love with this sport (probably literally too at some point). It’s worth saying as well, that although CrossFit has a bit of a rep for being expensive, I’ve found its been no different to any other sport or hobby I’ve tried. At NWK there’s options to suit every budget, from 8 class a month passes - to the full whack (which I have just signed my life away to). I might be biased now, but I owe a lot to these guys and would encourage anyone to just come down, try a class and hopefully join our dysfunctional lil family.

Fantastic experience: If you want a happy, well run, well educated place to workout then i would highly recommend NWK Maidstone. Not only incredible Crossfit programming but there is space to do your own training, top level equipment, big hearted coaches and a full stash of chilled Noccos ;) …… I have learned so much being at the gym…. Way more than ever on my own - and it is surrounded by an incredible member family. Free trial and all! Win win win.

Fantastic experience: If you were thinking of trying CrossFit, I can’t say enough about NWK Maidstone awesome coaches, amazing people and a great atmosphere with workout’s anyone can do. I have met a lot of lovely people from all walks of life here, and long may in continue.

Fantastic experience: Took part in a competition here on Sunday. What a place, huge space, well kitted out. Nath and the team were great hosts, smiled all day and Wendover and above to make it a fantastic day Would 100% return for a drop in one day!

Fantastic experience: Loved the Saturday session today, as I have all sessions since joining a few months back. Been doing CrossFit for a few years now and have got a real love & passion for it back since joining. Such a welcoming place with all members encouraging each other and can’t wait to keep improving with the all knowledge, passion and dedication that all the coaches have, they have so much time for every single member helping them on whatever journey they are on. If you’ve never heard of CrossFit or a seasoned pro, give it try, you won’t regret it.

Fantastic experience: Spent the week in this amazing CrossFit gym, welcomed and felt comfortable from the moment I stepped into the box. The owners and coaches are excellent and very knowledgeable, picked up a good few pointers, always learning! Well equipped gym, varied workouts and encouraging members. CrossFit gyms I believe are defined by the coaches and the members, this one is truly up there! Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve never really been a gym goer but wanted to do something that would challenge me and just in general make me feel better in day to day life so I gave Nwk a try and can honestly say I wish I went earlier. I never thought I’d be some one that would want to regularly work out but actually feel like I’m missing out when I can’t go. This is a credit to the owners, the coaches and the members everyone is there to help support and encourage one another no matter level or back ground. Definitely one of my happy places!

Fantastic experience: This crossfit box epitomises support & community. They have a wealth of knowledge from all their coaches and i love they have all shapes and sizes and there is nothing but encouragement for every single person. There are absolutely no egos here. I am always recommending NWK to anyone who will listen as having been in the fitness industry for 25 years now, i know a good gym and this place is absolutely up there. Book in, don’t be scared. You will 100% have no regrets. Whatever your goal, this is the place to achieve it but also be part of a wonderful community. B x

Fantastic experience: For me there is no better box for Crossfit than NWK Maidstone. The owners and coaches really make it feel like your a part of the family. The programming is great and suitable for all levels, there is always a scaleable option for the less hardcore. There are individual areas for you to work on your own thing and the main class area is huge. The equipment is of high quality. If your thinking of joining a Gym, give it a try, you will never look back.

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy my experience at NWK Maidstone, the staff are all friendly and approachable. They have a lot to offer in the form of equipment and classes, you will definitely be made to feel welcome and become a valued member of the NWK family.

Fantastic experience: What a gym. I can honestly say no where else I’ve ever been has been as welcoming and helpful as not only the coaches but the members here. The facilities are great, the coaching is even better & the people I have met have become friends for life. It changed my life joining this place and I couldn’t recommend it enough to anyone that even has the tiniest thought of trying CrossFit. You will not be disappointed I promise that.

Fantastic experience: This gym is unreal, for someone who doesn’t like the gym environment where the weight sections can be very daunting you enter into this gym where people of all abilities are made to feel so welcome by all the coaches, owners and the other members. Every session is a new and exciting one with different lifts and movements and a tough workout to finish. Special shout-out to the coaches who even with the busiest of classes make time for every person giving little hints and ways to improve and always encouraging you to be the best. If your struggling to get motivated to go to a gym and workout alone, join NWK where no motivation is required all you have to do is turn up, join in and have a blast.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member at NWK Maidstone for a year and I joined to 'get fit' for my wedding. I was nervous walking into the box for the first time (as I'd seen CrossFit athletes on YouTube and how extremely fit they were), however I was greeted by one of the owners who made me feel immediatly welcome. I started going once or twice a week, as that's all my body could take, but after two months, I noticed that I had lost a stone in weight. I had completed my goal, but I decided to stick at it. In the last year I have learnt new skills in olympic weightlifting and gymnastics and every week I'm hitting a new personal best in some form of the sport. This is down to every one of the coaches at NWK - each coach brings a unique skill and style of coaching, which together forms an amazing team. Every coach AND member at NWK wants you to succeed. A few more things...the music is always great and varied, the equipment is perfect for every lift or movement you'll need, the atmosphere is always awesome and sometimes there's free cinnamon rolls. If you were like me, wanting to get fit and have never tried CrossFit before, then just drop the team a message, come down, run around and lift heavy things with us - it's, in my opinion, the greatest form of fitness.

Fantastic experience: Wholeheartedly recommend to everyone of all levels. I myself had been doing CrossFit for a few years and felt a fairly immediate improvement. I brought a friend from work (who had never been to the gym before) and he was made to feel incredibly welcome and part of the family instantly. That was 4 months ago and he still does CrossFit to this day. Sadly I've since relocated for work but my heart aches for this place. Hope to see you all soon. Love Lewis + Sarah

Fantastic experience: Have been a member at NWK Maidstone for just over a year and have enjoyed just about every class I have been too. Each session is planned to challenge you with scaling options for all abilities. The excellent coaches, help you improve each session. I mostly do mornings, but whatever classes I have done, the other members are supportive and help create a great atmosphere. Regular social events are an extra bonus. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I can't speak highly enough of NWK Maidstone. The facilities are cracking, but what really makes it shine is the coaches and members. I've been to more CrossFit gyms than you can shake a stick at, and the environment that's been created here is second to none. The coaches are knowledgeable and excellent at both coaching movement standards for technique, and motivating members through workouts. The other members are welcoming to newcomers of all abilities, and are especially supportive to those who are new to CrossFit.

Fantastic experience: I joined NWK Maidstone in January 2023 after being diagnosed with Tachycardia. I wanted to make sure my heart was as healthy as possible and I have ended up not only losing half a stone in 4 months but gaining a second family. I’ve managed to do things I didn’t think I was capable of anymore due to my condition but now I’m lifting weights above my head, smiling so much more and my self confidence is also growing. This is not just a gym… this is a community of the most passionate, dedicated and loving individuals I have ever met.

Fantastic experience: I recently joined NWK with no previous CrossFit experience and am absolutely loving it. The coaches are amazing! They are incredibly helpful and welcoming. There is so much encouragement, support and guidance in every session. Being new to crossfit, the coaches really have taken the time to guide me and I look forward to every session. I would highly recommend the NWK gym to anyone and can’t praise this place and coaches enough!

Fantastic experience: I joined NWK almost two years ago and it has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and friendly, and they create such a welcoming environment. They helped me adapt exercises and give me advice whilst I was pregnant, enabling me to keep working out throughout the duration of my pregnancy. And when I returned after my c-section, they pushed me and again adapted exercises to ensure I was safely working out whilst also getting the most out of the session. The overall environment in NWK is welcoming, positive and motivating. Everyone roots for each others achievements and supports each other to get through the workout which is extremely refreshing to see. No matter your fitness level, I highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of NWK for about 20 months now and I can honestly say every time I go I still learn something new. The coaches are so knowledgeable and experienced, every class I feel I’ve improved in someway. NWK has become part of my everyday life now, whether it’s open gym, CF, bootcamp or something social. It’s so welcoming, challenging and fun. I’ve made proper supportive lifelong mates here which we help and support each other on our fitness goals. It’s so friendly. I can’t say that enough. I knew only one person when I joined and when people say CrossFit is a community I didn’t really get it but now being part of it I do. It really is. Love this place. Can’t thank them enough for getting me to where I always wanted to be. Join!!

Fantastic experience: A brilliant CrossFit gym with amazing coaches - their knowledge is unmatched. Cheryl can spot tweaks to your form that make so much difference. I have loved every session and looked forward to each one every time. I made so much progress over the 8 months I attended, doing about 3 sessions a week. My squat and bench press have never been so good, and my mobility has increased ten-fold! Such a positive community who celebrate each other’s successes and who welcome anyone, no matter their ability.

Fantastic experience: I joined NWK a little under a year ago now and I think it's the best decision I've made when it comes to my health and fitness, perhaps ever. I've always previously been a fan of home work outs, but this opened my eyes to just how good and necessary it is to have an actual coach there with you to help you improve your form, strength, mobility and just about all you need to be your best you. The classes are always fun and varied, no two are the same, and it's a wonderfully welcoming environment. Every single Coach there and every single member is genuinely lovely and make you feel right at home. If you struggle with some movements, basic or advanced, they'll help you through it. They'll break it down, step by step and work with you until you nail it, even if it's a little at a time. Despite everyone being different levels, the fact everyone is so supportive of each other and our individual journeys is so refreshing to see and be a part of. Even just yesterday, when a gymnastics class only had 3 people in it, Coach Mooney still treated it like he would any other session with 15/20 people, working with us, demoing, and giving the attention to each of us to help us better our movements. All the coaches are like this. It doesn't matter if there are 20 of you or 2 of you, a session is still a session and they'll treat it as such. As long as I'm in Maidstone, I'll be a member of this gym.

Fantastic experience: Me and my partner went to NWK for our trial session last night. From the very beginning we were welcomed in with open arms and introduced to everyone before our session. I cannot fault the team as they were so friendly, helpful and accommodating. My partner is 21 weeks pregnant and hasn’t been in a gym environment in some time so needless to say, she was nervous about getting back into it and didn’t know what to expect but again, the team were outstanding, they gave her alternative movements throughout the workout and gave her plenty of 1 on 1 time to ensure she was happy and confident with what she was doing. Both me and my partner absolutely loved our trial and we signed up immediately straight after. I cannot fault NWK and am so excited to be a part of the NWK community! If you are new, haven’t been in a fitness environment or have concerns about your abilities but want to get into fitness. I cannot recommend NWK more and encourage you to come down and try it out. The team are so welcoming and will guide you through every movement to ensure you are confident with what you’re doing but most importantly, that you enjoy yourself!

Fantastic experience: Epic gym, great people. Sign up

Fantastic experience: What a nice crossfit box! We are on our way back from a wicked comp they put on today. Lovely welcoming members and awesome vibes. Well kitted out and looks great!

Fantastic experience: Went here for a sports massage with Jordan, as I have back problems, and after an hour appointment I felt lighter, and was able to move more freely, will definitely go back.

Fantastic experience: Amazing coaches, amazing space, amazing equipment! After 6 months at NWK I can honestly say it is the BEST crossfit centre I have ever trained in. I am so sorry to be leaving, if I could take it with me I would! The feeling of being part of a family with who I have shared so much has been really special.

Fantastic experience: My CrossFit journey started by heading down to watch some of the CrossFit Games Open workouts, where the atmosphere and camaraderie was absolutely amazing and it made me want to be a part of this wonderfully welcoming community. I opted to do the beginners course to learn the basics which suitably equipped me and built my confidence to take part in CrossFit sessions. I have a long way to go yet but you’ve got to start somewhere, right?

Fantastic experience: THE BEST GYM EVER. I’ve been going for a good 6 months now and it’s fair to say I have NEVER stuck to anything fitness related for that long! So that’s saying something. The NWK community is unmatched and all the coaches are so welcoming wether you’re a beginner or not! They will be their to help you and support you. So if you’re thinking about joining CrossFit then this is your gym!!

Fantastic experience: NWK is an amazing CrossFit gym. I completed the beginners programme here and as someone who has never done CrossFit before I felt extremely welcomed by the coaches and other members at my first session. The coaches here are super friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Very clean space too. Overall just a wicked place!

Fantastic experience: What a show Nathan and his team put on at NWK Maidstone on Saturday! Great venue with loads of space for competitors warming up, cooling down and their bags, a coffee and snacks bar, amble toilet facilities provided and the all important parking. Challenging but achievable WODs with a scaled option as well. Ideal for all standards and I felt the right number of WODs as well not making it a long dragged out day. In a CrossFit world that is sometimes hampered perhaps by complicated WOD elements, you included some simple but still challenging parts like the overhead plate hold and holding the loaded bar. Brilliant. Us spectators really appreciated how we could be in the central corridor to be close to the athletes to cheer them on. But better than that was the warm, friendly and encouraging NWK Maidstone staff, judges and all those involved in the successful day. I have been to many, many competitions as a spectator and this was up there as one of the very best. The atmosphere you created was brilliant. Even the podium prizes were top notch. I thought the award to the lady at the end was special, a nice touch and highlights that out great sport isn't always about the podium placers. Well done again, Richard.

Fantastic experience: What an amazing, fun, bubbly atmosphere. The coaches go above and beyond. They really go the extra mile in helping with your own personal goals. You dont just have a membership you have a family of like minded individuals who are passionate and motivated in helping every single member. No egos just people of all different strengths and weaknesses all pushing eachother to become better versions of ourselves.

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Great instructors and crowd and the WODs and bootcamp's will work you harder than any solo gym session you'll do! Looking forward to getting fitter and stronger!

Fantastic experience: Excellent Crossfit Gym. Grea staff, great members, great facilities!

Fantastic experience: I'm one month in to my first CrossFit experience and every session I've been greeted with enthusiasm and knowledge by the team of coaches. The equipment is excellent and the varied workouts are scaled to everybodies capabilities. Progression and form are demonstrated and explained clearly and I feel like I've been welcomed with open arms and encouragement into a whole new world of workouts, I'm so glad this place exists in Maidstone!

Fantastic experience: Superb CrossFit box !! Very friendly and welcoming staff and members. All new kit and very clean. The really good thing about this box is it big and enough space so there is open gym spots that you can book while classes are running.

Fantastic experience: I am not a member myself but my wife has joined and in the last few months has lost 3 stone in weight and is much fitter and more mobile. The team encourage personal development are are on hand for giving advice and encouragement. Highly recommended,

Fantastic experience: From someone with no CrossFit experience, I was hooked after my first session! The coaches are incredible, with superb knowledge and each one will spend time with you helping improve your technique and valuing everyone in the class equally. It’s a great community of friendly people, everyone wants each other to succeed and the encouragement pushes you to be better each class. Easily the best gym I’ve been to.

Fantastic experience: After long time and two children finally I find myself happy to have joined NWK and happy to wake up at 5.30 in the morning to go to the class. I can see I can make myself fit again.

Fantastic experience: I booked a drop in and was really welcomed by everyone, it’s fantastic to work out with so much space! Thanks guys!! Definitely recommend

Fantastic experience: What can I say about this place... location is perfect (walking distance from high street) free parking excellent facilities and just an amazing bunch of like minded people pushing each other to become a better version of themselves. The staff are awesome and its easy to consider them a part of your extended family. Coming from a normal gym where you go in lift big go home... that mundane routine got boring real fast. At NWK no class is the same and no coach is the same (well they all push you)...Mooney is the pusher who makes you feel like super man, Greg is the perfector who guide you to get that form right, Nathan is the pep talker who puts a smile on your face even when u are dieing, Ash is the booster who makes you feel like super man even when u know you passed your limit ages ago, theo is the calm before the storm who breaks you but is also willing to fix you when your done, Paul is the joker who will make you laugh until his workout gets you to cry and Cheryl is the tiny beast who kicks your butt while guiding you to Olympic lifting glory. If you are looking for a new challenge try it out... if you looking for a new friend group come on down... just be sure to bring positive vibes cause thats the only thing allowed at NWK
