CrossFit^® 1066

Fantastic experience: This is hands down one of the best gyms and fitness communities that I've ever been part of. I'm not someone who ever considered themselves 'into' health and fitness, and I'm not naturally gifted at any of this stuff; it's been a personal struggle finding anywhere over the years that has led to results. It's a testament to their knowledge and their commitment to inclusivity that I've managed to improve so much over just a few years.

Fantastic experience: From London, dropped in for a session. Great class, Alex was top notch. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this place. I've never been your normal gym person....don't have the discipline! As a 40+ relative newbie to Hastings, CrossFit 1066 has been just the tonic I needed. Lots of laughs, hard work, sweat and personal progress. It's not about being the best (my target is often to have got to half-way through a workout as some of the others (Wayne...ahem) are finishing), it's about working out what you can do, what you enjoy, where you want to improve, and the mindset that works best for you to get through Burpees and Echo Bikes .

Fantastic experience: Great mixture of workouts and strength work updated on a daily basis. Friendly and insightful coaches.

Fantastic experience: I came for a trial session with Alex and the team. Great atmosphere, hard session and a well-equipped space! Thanks again

Fantastic experience: I started with 1066 Crossfot less than a month ago . Now I want to do more ! ‍♀️ The instructors are understanding and allow you to wirk a your level . It’s a safe inclusive space for all

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to 1066 for 18months. A complete novice to anything gym. It has boasted my confidence and self esteem. I always come out feeling fantastic and motivated.

Fantastic experience: This place is life changing. Community, fitness and a lot of fun. I'd urge anybody with an interest in looking after their health, both physical and metal, to give it a try.

Fantastic experience: Really supportive atmosphere

Fantastic experience: I moved to Hastings a year ago and struggled to find a gym that suited me. Having just turned 50, I wasn’t sure if CrossFit was going to be for me but have been trying pleasantly surprised. The programmes are really adaptable for all strength and fitness levels and the coaches and wider community are really welcoming and supportive. There’s also lots of social events and fundraising activities too. Since I’ve been a member, the community have raised funds for some really worthwhile causes including an LGBTQ mental health charity and also a defibrillator

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at Crossfit 1066 for over 3 years now. As a middle-aged and fairly hectic business owner it can be challenging to stay on track with energy levels and commitments but the community, the personalisation and scaling of the coaching and every success being celebrated (even if it’s just getting through the door that day) makes this place second to none. We often laugh as hard as we train here and there are endless opportunities to challenge yourself and progress wherever you are at. Its a game changer for mental heath as well as physical. Plus there are loads of social benefits too. Don’t be intimated by what you might hear or read about CrossFit. You are made to feel so welcome here and everyone is more than happy to help.

Fantastic experience: Was completely new to this sort of thing. I was unsure about being able to do it, but the scaling options mean anyone can do it. Great community throughout the gym. There's a great app that makes it really easy to track your progress.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! My fitness has taken off and the community has been great ever since I moved here. Thanks Alex. X

Fantastic experience: Friendly, supportive atmosphere. Well worth joining no matter where you are in your fitness journey. Community centric with social events throughout the year that you just don't get with most gym memberships.

Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend CrossFit 1066 highly enough. Great community, great coaches, loads of class options and fun social events and competitions

Fantastic experience: Come and experience welcoming atmosphere from us Coaches and our members We will fully guide and support you through your training journey!

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym! Great people

Fantastic experience: I am not a member but have had the pleasure of competing in a CrossFit comp here. What can I say the CrossFit community is inclusive wherever you go and 1066 is no exception. The coaches and fellow athletes really show the true meaning of crossfit. If this is what it's like in a comp environment I can only imagine what the class community is like.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in for a couple of sessions while on holiday. Quality box and quality coaching. Highly recommend and so welcoming!! Thanks for having us Alex and thanks Ned for a great Crossfit kids class for our boys

Fantastic experience: 1066 is a great Crossfit gym. Lots of our members at Nwk Maidstone have done drop ins our competitions and have loved it!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, awesome classes & facilities. Friendly Community feel.

Fantastic experience: Great coaches great place, Hard Work but it pays off

Fantastic experience: Great facility with a really welcoming group - will be back!

Fantastic experience: Professional, supportive, and friendly staff in a great atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: First time ever doing cross fit, I trialed a class here and was hooked from the start. Having spent years in a local gym, I felt a bit bored and stale with it, I wanted something more than “just a gym”. The social aspect of being at 1066 Cross Fit is awesome, it’s not just a place to get fit and challenge yourself, it’s also a great place to meet new people. We all often do things outside of classes, and go for coffees / sea swims after! I couldn’t recommend this place more Worth every penny!

Fantastic experience: I had never done CrossFit before I started 1066. I was really anxious as it was so different to anything I have ever done but all the coaches were so friendly and helpful, even a year on I still get things wrong and ask stupid questions and they’re always there to talk you though it. As well as the wonderful coaches the members are so supportive, friendly and always happy to welcome a new face. You can never get bored of CrossFit because it’s so varied and uses so many different skill set. Hardest but best exercise I’ve ever done!

Fantastic experience: Great gym lovely people really know their trade!!

Fantastic experience: No1 friendliest and best in 'every way' box I have ever attended! I am travelling constantly so have dropped in on MANY boxes all over the world. I never have had such a warm friendly welcome as Alex, Zoe and all the members gave me here. Solid WODs with loads of variation and excellent form checks during the classes and encouragement along the way from the coaches who were all laser focused on helping everyone get the best from every WOD. And you don't have to be a 'certain level' to attend this BOX, everyone, all levels are welcome without exception - I had had a long break off working out and slotted right in. I miss this BOX so bad. If you are living in Hastings and sitting on the fence about joining 1066, whether you are brand new to Cross Fit or coming from another sport or even simply the sofa, just GO you won't regret it! Alex also sorted out a knee issue I was struggling with for some months as he does some sports physio too so this box has it ALL! Thank you so much everyone, especially Alex who is exceptionally attentive not just to training physically, whatever your ability or level, but really making a positive impact in getting mental health back on point. Life saving stuff. Really sad to leave, but I will be back!

Fantastic experience: A very welcoming and friendly gym for people of all abilities, every coach has been extremely helpful and guided me as a new member to grow in confidence and the results I’ve had in such a short time are amazing.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training here for quite some time now, minus the months it was closed due to *cough cough*. Recently trained at other gyms in the local area and I found myself dying to come back during those session. CrossFit 1066 has you returning because of how fun it can be! You learn so many different skills that you never thought you’d do. I’ve actually overcome the fear of being upside down amongst other movements that are so technical you’d think you wouldn’t be able to do it. But that’s where the community spirit comes in. All coaches are so supportive, they really root for you and your progress, as does every other member. Everyone competes against their own progress and there is no judgement on whether you cant do something. Can’t do a movement yet? You do something that’s slightly easier. There are four different styles of classes; normal WOD (workout of the day), conditioning, gymnastics (that focuses on the gymnastics movements CrossFit uses) and Olympic weightlifting (barbell focused classes). Feel intimidated by not knowing what you’re doing in a normal gym and worried about others being judgemental? Come join us!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this place, aside from the obvious benefits of getting fitter, healthier and stronger (as the programming is excellent)- I just love the community here (no matter what age you are), so supportive! As well as regular fun socials, this place really does have it all!

Fantastic experience: I joined Crossfit 1066 in April following a health scare in January. I talked to Alex and Zoey beforehand, as I was concerned I wouldn’t be able to do a lot of the movements due to my reduced fitness level and a long-term injury which requires some TLC. They both reassured me that everything could be scaled to suit my current ability, so I took the plunge and haven’t looked back. They have supported me as my fitness returned and I never feel pressured to do anything I don’t feel comfortable with. My fitness level has improved enormously and I’m able to exercise pain-free which is important for my injury rehab. It’s also become important for my mental health - helping me to manage work-related stress. Everyone at 1066 is so friendly, welcoming, supportive and fun. If you’re not sure if crossfit is the right option for you, speak to Alex and Zoey and give it a try - you may just find you love it as much as I do!

Fantastic experience: I'm 50, on and off have been a member of gyms but never seemed to stick with it. Younger colleagues told me about Crossfit, i was hesitant to join as I thought id be out of my depth, intimidated. I bit the bullet, my preconceptions couldn't of been further from the truth. Everyone is really helpful, really friendly and welcoming, no one judges you. The coaches are fantastic, the classes are great, really motivational and tweaked to your ability but challenging. Ive been a member for a few weeks now, i feel a difference, people have noticed a difference, strength, weight, look, i feel so much better. I cannot recommend it highly enough!

Fantastic experience: Don't waste money on a commercial gym... if you want results and an awesome friendly atmosphere this is where it's at! Motivation level 999!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely loved my experience here. Staff are very helpful, patient but do keep pushing you on. Equipment is great. If not for me moving I would keep going there. Cant think of Any negatives :)

Fantastic experience: Awesome crossfit box and an amazing coaching team and community to go with it

Fantastic experience: Excellent Gym! Having trained in multiple gyms across the UK, this is by far one of the best places I have trained. Coaches are extremely supportive and informative. One of the nicest communities I'm proud to be a part off.
