Ascension Training - CrossFit^® Epsom

Fantastic experience: I was getting bored of training in a traditional gym and a friend mentioned I should join CrossFit Epsom, I’ve been here 10 months now and love every session with the coaches. There is never a dull day or workout, the coaches make sure every session is a lot of fun but also challenging. Couldn’t recommend joining the CrossFit Epsom community enough.

Fantastic experience: I joined here 3 months ago not knowing a thing about crossfit and now I absolutely love it. Crossfit Epsom is a tight nit family with Shaz and Rob acting as parents to us all. The care and attention shown by all coaches to their members is unparalleled and is something that doesn't go unnoticed. Looking forward to seeing what lies ahead

Fantastic experience: Ascension Training is a very warm and welcoming place, which makes all the difference. The whole Ascension team really do want people to be fit and happy. The exercise classes are always challenging and fun. The coaches give personal help to everyone in the class. Their enthusiasm and support is one of the main reasons my motivation has not dropped and I’ve kept coming back.

Fantastic experience: I joined a few weeks ago as my daughter goes there and she raves on about it. There is a group called AWOL (Any Walks Of Life) which welcomes, as the name suggests, anyone looking to improve their fitness but not physically fit enough to partake in the more 'hardcore' gym activities. I am not a born athlete but the coaches take great care to adapt the exercises to each individual, so that they are both manageable and challenging. What makes this place truly unique for me is the community spirit that underpins everything they do - everyone, from staff to gym members, is welcoming and supportive. And there's a really great little coffee place attached to it, where you can treat yourself with fellow members after a hard morning's work. You really should join us.

Fantastic experience: Excellent staff, great equipment and fab community vibe.

Fantastic experience: Great box with loads of space and great equipment and schedule but most importantly an amazing community. I only joined a couple of months ago and already feel like part of the family.

Fantastic experience: I joined in December '23 and am really loving it. The coaches are fantastic, everyone is very supportive, the classes are varied and fun and scalable to all abilities. As someone who has never really got into regular exercise I was a bit apprehensive, but my only regret is not joining sooner.

Fantastic experience: This place is great, I joined at the end of November having never done any kind of CrossFit before. Everyone has made me feel so welcome and I've had so much help with complex movements from both the coaches and the other members - it's such a nice environment to train in

Fantastic experience: I joined in May 2023 and it is honestly one of the best things I've ever done. Genuinely love going there. The people are amazing and the workouts are challenging and really rewarding. It caters for all abilities and there are no egos there. Everyone is really supportive, the coaches in particular are outstanding, and are lovely people!

Fantastic experience: Sarted at end of August and this is the best way I have ever trained. From the very first day everyone was so friendly, helpfull and supportive. The coaches are fantastic they really help you to improve, its like having a personal trainer with you in every session, developing your technique, pushing and motivating you. Normal gyms are boring, this is fun, great camaraderie in the group sessions and everyone helps, motivates supports each other. I am 58yrs old and i am getting stronger, fitter and leaner every day.

Fantastic experience: Great gym

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym facilities. One of the best CrossFit gyms I’ve been to.

Fantastic experience: You would be a fool not join this gym. Don't be a fool! But in all seriousness, top gym, top coaches, great people, great classes and the coffee's not bad either.

Fantastic experience: Great place. Very pleasant people. I had. Two day weight lifting seminar. Everything you need from a CrossFit gym. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit and Weightlifting box. Awesome place, great vibe and fantastic equipment. 5 platforms for lifting and great mix of well maintained Eleiko, Werksan, Pendlay bars. Coaches very friendly and approachable with masses of experience and knowledge. Coffee shop/seating area at the front so great to chill post session. Can't recommend highly enough.

Fantastic experience: When you walk back into gym after being on holiday and get greeted with smiles, hugs and high fives, you know this is not “just a gym”. I love the fact that people of all ages and abilities can join into one class, and compete against themselves, at their own individual level. The slowest is cheered on as just much as the fittest!

Fantastic experience: I had been following Ascension on Instagram for some time and talked myself out of joining……. “They will all be like the CrossFit games athletes” “Maybe I just need to spend time getting fit enough to join?” Well I finally took the plunge and I wished I had done it ages ago! The coaches and team are amazing and super friendly, Giving me confidence to try something new and push that bit harder. Take yourself out of your comfort zone and give it a try you won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of Ascension for just over two months now and can honestly say I have never loved exercising more! Before joining Ascension I was struggling with low motivation due to doing the same workouts and had lack of accountability and goals in the gym. Since making the change I feel really empowered by the community around me. The trainers are brilliant and ALWAYS on hand to support. I’ve learnt more in the last two months than I have in the last ten years of going to corporate gyms, it’s the best decision I have made!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been doing CrossFit for the past 5 years but joined Awesome Ascension about 15 months ago. At 50, I’m determined to maintain my fitness and be strong not just in body but in mind, too. I’m never disappointed in whatever class I attend- each one is a challenge and I’m racing against myself, not others. The coaches, community and camaraderie are second to none. Thank you Ascension Training.

Fantastic experience: Having started back in Jan this year, I’ve been amazed by how welcoming the gym has been. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and are clearly invested in every member of every class. I think the schedule of classes is varied, having attended Engine, CrossFit, and Weightlifting, allowing anyone to work on what they want. The program is challenging and I have left every class feeling I’ve achieved something. Furthermore, the membership options have worked for me as I don’t live full time in Epsom, the packs of 10 sessions have allowed me flexibility to train when I can without worrying about wasting sessions. A great gym that I would recommend to everyone!

Fantastic experience: Joining Ascension is one of the best things I have ever done! The coaches all make a point of getting to know everyone and making you feel welcome, as do the other members. The workouts always vary, so you never get bored and the coaches are always encouraging you! I had never looked forward to going to the gym before and was quite nervous to join, as I had heard Crossfit was quite intense, but I absolutely love it and would recommend it to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I'm a 40 year old dad of two who hasn't really done any form of fitness for a while and was anxious I wouldn't be able to keep up with the healthier/younger people you see. Since I joined, all the coaches have been very welcoming and friendly, even the class attendees cheer you on when battling through the last stages. Everyone is supportive and always there when you have a question and I can assure you it is a great place. I'm really enjoying every class and only wish I could attend more.

Fantastic experience: Joining Ascension Training was the best decision I made towards the end 2022. I started a few months ago and instantly felt welcomed by all the members and coaches. The classes are insanely good and each session is completely new, meaning they will challenge each muscle group if you go to multiple classes a week. (You’ll also never be bored!) The level of knowledge that the coaches have shines through and they will always ensure your enjoying the sessions as a priority. Even when you’re training in the group sessions, the coaches will give you guidance and help you to improve your technique and teach new skills throughout the class. All moves can be altered to suit the variety of fitness levels in the class, so I’ve never felt like I couldn’t join in when starting as there’s always a variation to try! The team spirit and great music gets you through the challenging workouts and you’ll leave with a smile on your face every time. I’ve recently started a PT programme with one of the coaches and it’s been by far the best training sessions that I’ve had from any coach in the last 12 years I’ve trained in different types of fitness. The knowledge he has provided me about my technique and mindset has driven me to push past the mental block walls that I had before and I feel my body becoming fitter and my mind set becoming stronger with each session. I have a personal goal set in mind which is one of the reasons I started a specific programme but I can’t recommend PT sessions enough even if it’s to get fitter, become more confident in training or whether you have a specific goal in mind like I do. I would never have had the discipline to push myself to the point that I get to in the sessions by myself without my coaches help, so I can’t recommend them enough. The environment Ascension Training promotes is such a welcoming feeling. I made new friends really easily here, and they all hold me accountable to get down and train which is helpful on days where you lack energy and motivation in the winter months! Highly recommend dropping by and speaking to the coaches, meet the members and see if it’s somewhere you’d like to train also!

Fantastic experience: I joined Ascension Training about 6 weeks ago and its been amazing. Not only is the facility great [spacious, inviting and loaded with great kit], the coaches and members are all really down to earth people. Not matter what you are looking for in terms of your own fitness goals or what base you are starting from, there is so much choice in the different classes and programs on offer that Im pretty sure you'll find what you are looking for. I highly recommend this place and its awesome people!

Fantastic experience: They've been great and super friendly! Very encouraging with everybody, to make sure they reach their goals! I am loving it! Crossfit is hard but it's great when you have a team like the Ascension Coaches buzzing around, making you keep going

Fantastic experience: Hello ! I joined classes in June. I was so kindly received that it exceeded all my expectations. the gym itself is very well equipped and large, the variety of classes is amazing and the coaches are super friendly, their knowledge is huge and they focus non-stop on people attending classes, generally after 1 day I felt as if I had been there forever. The people attending also welcomed me as if I were their friend. Thank you for everything !

Fantastic experience: Having been a member for a few months I thought I would share my experience. Going to my first session I felt extremely nervous not knowing what to expect. I was made very welcome by the trainers and other members. The small groups allow the trainers to focus on individuals and tweak any movements you may be unable to do. I struggled to get through the first session but everyone was very supportive. After 12 sessions I feel so much fitter and see improvements physically and mentally. Having tried other gyms, I have to say Ascension CrossFit is by far the most welcoming and friendliest. Come along and give them a go. They are genuinely there to help and support you on your fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: Great community, great coaches. The ultimate place to train and push yourself to achieve your goals

Fantastic experience: Did a camp here and the facility and people are great Not a local myself, but highly recommended for those who are

Fantastic experience: Friendly and social gym with a coffee bar. I'm in!

Fantastic experience: Best weightlifting facility I've ever seen. Owner also bought me a chocolate bar so 10/10

Fantastic experience: Fantastic people, incredibly friendly and welcoming, paired with a great facility - absolutely winning combo.

Fantastic experience: Quality CrossFit gym! Top trainers, great atmosphere - very welcoming of new people. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Great box, fantastic top quality equipment for CrossFit and weightlifting. A very friend community and helpful staff. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I joined 12 months ago.Its been amazing experience. So friendly Really challenging and the coaches are great.

Fantastic experience: Friendly atmosphere. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and caring. The programs and workouts are planned considering every ability (advanced/intermediate/beginner levels). Great box!

Fantastic experience: Whether you are new to CrossFit or want to take your skills to the next level this box is simply perfect! The coaches are all experienced, knowledgeable and great fun to work with and the space itself (unlike most central London boxes) is massive! Keep it up Ascension you are doing great!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of Ascension for three months and can certainly say it's the most impressive gym in the area, in terms of quality of classes and coaches, support, general welcome and friendliness. I recommend it highly, and keep up the good work Ascension.

Fantastic experience: After a long break from Crossfit I was finally able to resume training. Starting again was made easy by the professional and friendly coaches, who took time to make sure I was being challenged learning new techniques, whilst reminding me of the cues for the moves I had learnt before. The members are very welcoming and if you are looking for a warm, friendly place come down and see for yourself.

Fantastic experience: I've been lucky enough to train at crossfit boxes across the world, from San Fran to Malaysia. Ascension isn't just a welcoming, supportive box with great coaches. It's a world class destination. No matter what your fitness levels; if you want results, pop down today!

Fantastic experience: No matter how fit you think you are this place will blow your mind. The beauty of it is, It’s the next level but for ANY level. It’s all measured and you can only improve. It’s priced great for the service you get with the coaches and members really being the core of it. What started as overwhelming Nerves and teary outbursts of frustration soon turned into one of the most exciting and positive journeys of my life. The whole concept encourages you to get the best out of yourself without cutting corners. And as Tom (my fave coach) likes to sing “be aggressive, be, be aggressive” and you will lift the impossible.

Fantastic experience: It's been a game changer for me. At my advanced age (40 years old), I have tried unsuccessfully to be consistent in the pursuit of fitness. My initial motivation would always desert me... then the sofa and unhealthy food would be the consolation. Fast forward 9 months and my motivation to attend training at Ascension Training is still strong. The training is tough and at times not fun... but the atmosphere, the vibe, the people and the variety all contribute to my wanting to attend and become the best that I can be! Absolutely no regrets. I wish I had started this sooner!

Fantastic experience: Within 2 months of starting cross fit, I’m totally addicted. My mental health has improved hugely and I can see my body changing before my eyes. The community is like nothing I’ve seen in a gym, with everyone supporting each other and being one another’s cheerleaders. I was nervous to join and thought about it for a very long time before taking the plunge but it was the best decision. To top it off cross fit kids is amazing for my children. I would recommend it to anyone.

Fantastic experience: Ascension Training is a magnificent place where you can learn the CrossFit methodology (which in my personal opinion, is one of the best to be healthy and have longevity) and Weightlifting (which makes you feel like a Super Hero ) from highly experienced coaches that are also incredible human beings. Ascension is also a place that welcomes you in a very special way, no matter your level of fitness. Vibes are amazing, the owners are super helpful to address any queries, and the people are the BEST community you could ever find and meet. I get goosebumps every time I enter the box. When I started my CrossFit journey, few months ago, I was confused, scared, etc but once I talked to them and tried their workouts, I promise, my life changed. Like everything in life, all takes time and consistency and in Ascension, I felt inspired and motivated to continue my fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: Couldn’t recommend this gym enough! The coaches and all members are hugely welcoming and knowledgable. Ive become seriously addicted in a very short period of time, learning new skills and seeing progress! A class for everyone, at every ability.

Fantastic experience: The Ascension team and members are so welcoming, classes are fun and always tailored to your needs. I was a little apprehensive but was made to feel really comfortable really quickly. The set up itself is fantastic, different classes, CrossFit which has some of the slightly more technical skills to learn, Engine for simpler but equally satisfying moves, plus now Yoga, Barbell for Olympic lifting, and great little skill workshops ad hoc and classes for kids too. Lots of options for class times, depending on your schedule, and when you're done, the café is a great place for a chat and coffee or smoothie. I can't remember what I did with my time before I joined!

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym! Really enjoy the crossfit classes, the coaches are all really helpful and make sure you’re getting the best out of each session. Everyone is really friendly and such a relaxed atmosphere. Kids and covid have meant that I haven’t managed regular exercise for quite a few years but this place has kept me interested and coming back, which equals a happier and healthier me!

Fantastic experience: I joined Ascension Training because although at 57, I’m reasonable at endurance events, I’ve not good at anything involving strength and endurance. The team at Ascension are really friendly and welcoming. They are helping me learn a whole new world of acronyms and exercises in a way I can build on. The other gym members I’ve spoken to are really friendly and also very encouraging during the sessions. I’ve been a member a few months now, so I’ll update my review as I go but my progress will be down to me, as Ascension are doing all they can to help my CrossFit journey!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member for a couple of months now. It has really been a great introduction to crossfit and a whole new way of keeping fit. I didn't expect when I joined for it to be this engaging and most importantly enjoyable. The coaches, facilities, programming, timetables etc are really amazing!

Fantastic experience: The experience has been amazing. I started in February 2022 and been doing 3 classes a week. My fitness has significantly improved and l love that the coaches and team mates are very supportive. Ascension is such a friendly place and it feels like my second home. I look forward to going in for my sessions, yes the workouts are hard but l love them.

Fantastic experience: I joined 7 months ago and I will never look back. I have always loved challenging myself but I never thought I was up to doing Crossfit but everyone here, from coaches to peers, are always willing to share advice and get you performing to your best. I am the sort of introvert who freaked out at the thought of people standing next to me, encouraging me on as I finished my workout. Now, I love it!! The energy, the atmosphere, the friendliness is without par.

Fantastic experience: This place is seriously awesome, you guys! It definitely has a strong community and everyone is there to help out others. You're not just going in and getting a workout done. Instead, you're hanging out with a bunch of friends. The coaches and the other members are ridiculously friendly and encouraging. In addition to the training you get from the coaches, you'll always be getting helpful advice and pointers from everyone else as well. Ascension training have done such a great job of making this place feel like a family rather than just another gym. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in getting in shape, meeting new people, or simply having fun!

Fantastic experience: After a month of training at Ascension I feel I can now leave an honest review. Hand on heart the best training environment I have ever been a member of. The term community is often used to describe CrossFit and it certainly applies to Ascension. It truly is the friendliest most supportive environment I have trained at. Everyone is so helpful and friendly from the owners, the coaches and the members. I have got to know more members and staff here in a month than I ever did at my previous place after three years of being a member there. The coaches simplify everything and encourage you every step of the way. Progress is visible during every class. Four weeks ago I had never done a front squat. Three weeks ago I learned I couldn’t do a front squat. Today I completed three sets of ten reps of front squats!!! All down to the help and encouragement of the Ascension community! Join. You will love it.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been part of the Ascension family for just over two months and I can honestly say joining was one of the best decisions I’ve made. The community you become a part of is friendly, understanding, helpful, encouraging. The coaches drive you to put in your best work and actively remind you that your best will not be the same as the two people next to you therefore there is never any comparing. All work outs can be scaled to each individuals needs so if you are a complete beginner there is nothing to worry about. If you are thinking of joining this amazing box but you’re nervous about the first steps, just go for it.. I was told ‘the hardest thing you will do is walk through the door, but you’ll always be greeted with a smile and a friendly face’ and that couldn’t be more true. Walk through that door and you’ll never look back.

Fantastic experience: Just loving the community and the vibe at Crossfit Epsom. But if Crossfit isn't your thing then try the Engine Club at the gym, it's sure to get your heart racing! Ascension Training offers you the opportunity to achieve your personal fitness goals, in a safe, structured environment. Go check it out!

Fantastic experience: Top spot. Very friendly bunch and a great place to call your local box. Super pumped to have a CrossFit in Epsom now :-)

Fantastic experience: A place where you can heal your body and your mind. Highly recommended! The support I received from Rob and all coaches is hard to describe in words. Thank you guys!

Fantastic experience: Such an amazing spirit at this CrossFit box. Inclusive of all levels, professional coaching and just a decent bunch of people. I joined nearly 4 years ago and have made some amazing friends, completed many lung busting workouts and am fitter, stronger and healthier than I have ever been.

Fantastic experience: Such an incredible box. The coaches are focused on teaching quality CrossFit and all the members are like one big family. The classes are small enough for tailored coaching, but the right size for some fun competition

Fantastic experience: Joining Intouch Crossfit is the best thing I ever did! No commercial gym will give you the drive to push yourself more than you thought you were capable of than you get here. No training programme will give you the attention to detail and technical skills that you get from the first rate coaches here. And no club gives you a second family like this place does. Join. You’re missing out not being here.

Fantastic experience: I joined Ascension Training recently and have to say that I can’t speak highly enough about the place. I can’t fault the facilities, the coaches, the equipment, the programming or the other members. Everything about it has been above and beyond. There is a real community feel to the place which you don’t get at commercial gyms.

Fantastic experience: Amazing crossfit box, brilliant coaches, friendly team and lovely community. I love it there! Whether you are brand new to crossfit (or any form of exercise) or a seasoned crossfitter, this is an awesome place to join!

Fantastic experience: These guys are awesome, every time I've been to the InTouch Crossfit box I've been made to feel really welcome and always had a blast the few times I've trained there. Unfortunately due to the distance of where I live now, I can't really get down there much these days. Quality coaches, great facilities and fun people to be around - I'd certainly recommend checking them out!

Fantastic experience: I've been with Intouch crossfit for about three years now, and - having been to several other crossfit gyms before - can genuinely recommend them for their knowledge, their commitment to technique and form over numbers, and the level of care and support they offer their members. I've been accommodated through competitions, injuries, pregnancy (even being able to workout up to 40 weeks!), postpartum recovery and now two lockdowns. They've been amazing, and the community of members are like a family. You'll get incredibly fit, you'll challenge yourself and you'll make life-long friends. What's not to love?

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going here for about a month now - ascension has a friendly and seriously qualified team. They are really keen to get you involved and help you progress both fast and safely. The classes they run are great, and the other members are both welcoming and helpful, with lots of little tips and tricks and support! Definitely something different to the run of the mill gym, and with a different challenge every day to keep you on your toes.

Fantastic experience: From the moment I walked in to the Box I was made to feel part of the community/ family. Very friendly, welcoming and professional trainers with a vast range of knowledge and expertise. I have been into fitness for many years and struggled with the change from a health club to a Crossfit Gym, but what I do know is the transformation I have achieved in a short period of time has been amazing and I will never look back. Great addition to the fitness industry in Epsom with 1st class facilities. Thank you to the team down there. Can't recommend this place highly enough BRILLIANT!!

Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym - new to crossfit and the coaches and members are incredibly welcoming, the facilities are absolutely top notch, and the programming is fun and challenging. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants to have some fun with their fitness while learning new skills and meeting great people.

Fantastic experience: This is a fantastic CrossFit Training Gym. All the coaches are super friendly and take an interest in you no matter what level of fitness and ability you’re at, and they really care and go above and beyond to help you achieve your goals. Fellow members are super friendly, inspiring, encouraging and fun. It’s like having a second family. I look forward to walking through the doors and always feel amazing when l leave

Fantastic experience: I have joined the gym on the opening day and I have been going there regularly since then. I tried both Engine and Crossfit classes and had a session with a personal trainer. I am really pleased with this gym, the environment is super friendly and I was able to connect with the other members. Everyone has been super friendly and helpful and it feels more like a community of friends than a gym. I love the morning classes and the weekend team challenges. Whether you are new to crossfit or an experienced athlete I would suggest to come and try this gym and you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Friendly experts and fun group.

Fantastic experience: Ive been a member over 3 years now and I have enjoyed every single day of this place. It is like a home. Such a lovely community and coaches to be with.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic coaches and community!

Fantastic experience: Best box in town! Wonderful community and supportive coaches.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member and also visited many great boxes, but at InTouch I found a family for myself and my loved ones. A family that cares if I am going low enough on my Squat Snatch or if one of my reps doesn't touch the bar on my Toes to Bar. But also a family that cares about how my day has been and how my family is doing. InTouch is a place where you can find friends to have a bit of banter during workouts and a BBQ after them. You won't regret your visit. See you at the box!

Fantastic experience: I visited for a few days from South Africa and these guys accommodated me and made me feel like I was one of the team. Great fun with amazing people. Thanks again.

Fantastic experience: I have only just joined InTouch as I have recently moved here, but already know this box is outstanding! The community has been welcoming and kind. The coaching is superb! John is an excellent coach who picks apart your form of which I am a huge fan. He is attentive to all athletes during the WODs. His coaching style is approachable and kind but pushes you to bring out your best while avoiding injury. The workouts have had ample variety, from gymnastics to lifts with a group cool down (something I have found some boxes neglect to do) And last but not least ... there is no ego at this box. Three WODs in at this box and I know it’s the place to be!! You won’t regret coming here!

Fantastic experience: Great Box, friendly staff, everyting is perfect. Just enjoy it!!!

Fantastic experience: Great classes with variation and specificity! The coaches are knowledgeable and personal with each individual in the small groups. I’ve seen amazing improvements in my overall fitness and strength. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Such a great community and the train is really good. Trust me all levels of fitness and experience are welcome here. I a bigger and was super worried but it's been great!

Fantastic experience: Great Box - trainers are fantastic and workouts are always fun and challenging!

Fantastic experience: I've been to a few boxes in London and this is by far been my favourite. Every coach is enthusiastic, encouraging and inclusive. It's a fantastic environment, and in a really great space!

Fantastic experience: Great place. Trainers are excellent, classes are nice and small so you get a lot of attention and focus on doing the exercises right. Really friendly and welcoming bunch.

Fantastic experience: Very welcoming and friendly. All the coaches are very knowledgeable and encouraging and the small class sizes are perfect for an intense workout.
