CrossFit^® Fort Ashton

Fantastic experience: I’m obsessed with this CrossFit box! The coaches are so knowledgeable and professional, and the programming is well structured. There’s also a real sense of community, both coaches and members ensure everyone feels welcome. We always have such a laugh! Would recommend to anyone thinking about joining.

Fantastic experience: Ready or not! CF Ashton will hook you up from day one. Outstanding coaches, fantastic atmosphere, great vibes and a never ending sense of accomplishment. I’ve always struggled to keep a consistent journey when it comes to gym attendance, but it has been 2 years since I’ve joined CF and I’m looking forward for the next 100! Thanks

Fantastic experience: Amazing coaches, great programming, and a strong community to boot!

Positive experience: I never went to this studio, but I go to classes upstairs and I regularly see people exercising there. It looks so fun! My only concern would be the front door that constantly opens and closes and lets cold air in

Fantastic experience: I’ve tried many different classes and gyms over the years but this is by far my favourite one! All the coaches are brilliant and very supportive. Thank you for building a wonderful community.

Fantastic experience: Great box, very friendly

Fantastic experience: The best thing I did for myself was to join CrossFit Ashton! Great gym with great coaches. Classes which I want to, not have to attend! People are v nice & welcoming too. Just Watch out as CFA is super addictive!

Fantastic experience: I’ve tried a lot of gyms. And then I found CrossFit. Finally I have found the one!! Fort Ashton is well equipped and friendly. Best of all the coaches are excellent, really know their stuff, they’re supportive and good fun. I love that there’s no egos and everything can be scaled to ability. Totally hooked.

Fantastic experience: Joining this gym is the best decision I've made since moving to Bristol. The coaches are all awesome, classes are always fun and varied, and the amount of progress I've seen in my strength, speed, stamina and overall fitness since joining speaks volumes about how good the coaching (and CrossFit) is! That being said, the social element of Fort Ashton is by far my favourite thing - I've made friends for life here and it's been the biggest factor in making Bristol feel like home.

Fantastic experience: Great place to train!

Fantastic experience: Lovely coach at this gym and lovely facilities! I thought that the pricing was very good and matched based on what I was getting, it was my first time so was slightly worried considering I’d just come back from injury but everyone was lovely and really helped my confidence out! Would recommend to try out and I’m looking forward to coming back

Fantastic experience: Great gym, lovely atmosphere and friendly people! Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: Great gym , friendly atmosphere!

Fantastic experience: Such a great gym. I’ve met so many friends here. The instructors are friendly and knowledgeable. They have great equipment and clean facilities, couldn’t be happier.

Positive experience: the PT session started off positive but the enthusiastic comments and words of affirmation quickly turned more sinister with the odd gentle caressing and grinding my hips whilst I squatted. Initially I thought nothing of this but my friends have told me this is not normal. I am rather perplexed because strangely I enjoyed it, might come back and sign up for the year

Negative experience: Felt very uncomfortable and pressured in to going outside of my comfort zone. There was a weird culture and lots of inappropriate touching.

Fantastic experience: Dan and the team are amazing, I love the gym and it’s atmosphere

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Fort Ashton is a fantastic CrossFit gym. Full of knowledgeable and friendly training staff, superb facilities and most importantly, a great community. No matter what your ability, Dan and his dedicated team will help you get fit in a fun and welcoming environment. Love it.

Fantastic experience: Great coaches, great lessons! I was a member of Fort Ashton during my short-term stay in Bristol. I couldn't have chosen better. Dan and his team do a great job. I hope to be able to stop by again. Keep up the great work. Thanks for everything.

Fantastic experience: Really love this CrossFit gym. The sessions are always really great, the coaches really know what they're talking about and you can tell they care about your progress and love CrossFit. The coaches also take the time to learn your name too which is such a nice touch. Really friendly and inclusive atmosphere from the coaches and other members. I've never done CrossFit before and I'm so so glad I've started! Wish I started years ago! I've not been going long and I'm already fitter and stronger than I've ever been!

Fantastic experience: When I joined CrossFit I was so unsure if it was going to be for me, many people said it's a cult haha. But from my taster session to every session I attend, the coaches and members make me feel so welcome and supported. I feel stronger than I have ever felt before and it feels good. The coaches have supported me to build at my pace all the whilst pushing me to push a little bit further. I would highly recommend joining CrossFit Fort Ashton you will not be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Amazing!!!

Fantastic experience: What a blast!! Started about 2 weeks ago and I'm hooked. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. The whole team are knowledgeable with great attention to detail, big shout out to Dan the man who keeps finding great adaptations for me during the session. Its nice to feel like I can take things at my own pace. Really looking forward to getting my first 10 pull-ups. I don't really have a background in fitness but this definitely feels like the most effective use of my time. The classes are all planned out for me I just have to show up and do the best I can on the day then head home, simples :)

Fantastic experience: I was looking for a new gym, as my old one closed unexpectedly. After some research Fort Ashton became the first one for me to try. From the the first session it hasn't been disappointing. Great coaches and fantastic community.

Fantastic experience: I joined CrossFit Fort Ashton earlier this year after 9 months out due to a back injury, and have loved getting back into the sport. The coaching is brilliant and they take real care to ensure correct technique and movement throughout workouts, which has really helped with my confidence and progression. There is a great community feel to the box and as a newcomer I was made to feel welcome by staff and members alike instantly. Great team, great community, great facilities - definitely worth a visit if you're in the area or thinking about getting into functional fitness.

Fantastic experience: Only joined about a month ago but loving it so far! As a newbie to CrossFit the coaches have been super attentive and helpful guiding me through the classes. And all the members have been lovely and friendly!

Fantastic experience: Not just a gym but a FAMILY! Great coaches, great classes and amazing people. Would definitely recommend! ┈╱▔▔▔▔▔╲┈ ▕╳(CROSSFIT}╳▏ ▕╳╳(FORT)╳╳▏ ┈╲((ASHTON))╱┈ ┈┈╲╋╋╋╱┈┈ ┈┈┈╲▂╱┈┈┈ ┈┈┈▕▅▏┈┈┈

Fantastic experience: By far the best workout environment I have experienced, the coaches are absolutely incredible, welcoming, friendly, you can tell that they all have passion for their work and genuinely care about all of the members. The programming is amazing and easily scaled for beginners like me, the equipment is plentiful and well maintained, I actually cannot fault CFFA at all. Thanks guys for everything you do! I love being a part of it.

Fantastic experience: Booked a 121 with Dan for myself and my wife. We were instantly felt welcome on arrival, the facility itself is well equipped, clean and tidy. Dan's coaching was amazing learnt so much in the hour we spent with him and look forward to implementing into our day to day training we will 100% be returning for another session...

Fantastic experience: I moved to Bristol at the beginning of the year and quickly felt very welcome at CFFA, which made being a little fish in a new city much easier. The classes are fab, with great coaching and programming. I feel incredibly supported by the CFFA community and have quickly made new friends :)

Fantastic experience: One year training at Fort Ashton has been a blast! I have move around a lot over the last few years and therefore I have seen quite a few CrossFit gyms all over the world. Fort Ashton is definitely one of the best gyms I have been to. Here are 3 things that I think are particularly good at FA: * Programming - I very much enjoy the programming. I think it’s fun, challenging and very efficient with a good variety of classes. * Coaching - All coaches are great. Very knowledgable, enthusiastic and encouraging. It’s amazing how some of them can make you feel like you have had a personal training when you have been to a full class. * Adaptation - For example when classes get really busy and the waiting lists gets too long, new classes will be introduced. Making sure everyone’s needs are followed up with. It was already good before covid but the response to covid was exceptionally good. I am very happy to be part of Fort Ashton. I would recommend it to everyone who is looking for a good quality CrossFit gym!

Fantastic experience: Be careful!! Fort Ashton is incredibly addictive so come along at your own risk. As a newbie it’s was nice to walk into my first class with the instructor already knowing my name and welcoming me in. I was a little worried by all the complex techniques but found that the instructors always take you through a whole-part-whole breakthrough of what you need to do ensuring that you’ve got the technique spot on. Each class is full of nice people who’s only aim is to get fit. There are no egos or attitude, just positivity. I’ve tried the conventional 24 hour gyms and got nothing out of it. After class at Fort Ashton I’m dripping with sweat and my Apple Watch is happy for the rest of the day with all the rings I’ve closed.

Fantastic experience: CFFA has very friendly and experienced coaches. The facility has plenty of space and equipments and also toilets and showers. I significantly improved my fitness capacity since I've been here owing to coaches and well developed wodS and classes. Besides It feels like a community rather than a gym which is an important pro if you are a withdrawn person like me :)

Fantastic experience: Such a friendly gym. Great mix of classes. Attended by old and young alike. I don’t make it down as often as I should but I always get warm smiles from the regulars. The coaches are all highly competent and really patient. Everything can be scaled so everyone can join in at their own level. One time when I was last to finish the set, (well, actually I’m always last), but one time in particular everyone else had already finished the set, but they all joined in with one more round with me so I wouldn’t be doing it alone. I didn’t know them at all-they were just being kind! It bowled me over .

Fantastic experience: I am new to Bristol and was recommended to try CrossFit a few weeks ago. I wish I had heard about it sooner! It is a very new type of exercise routine and every session is different. The trainers are very professional and I trust them to make sure I am doing all of the moves properly. Everyone I have met so far is lovely and it is good to be pushed again. Could not recommend enough!

Fantastic experience: Great gym! An encouraging environment with great coaches who are always on hand during the classes and open gym. I never really attended a gym before and I've now been here 2 years and wouldn't look at another gym. The other members are also fab cheering and supporting each other and of course the socials are fab! No hesitation to recommend to anyone where you are new to a gym or have past experience.

Fantastic experience: This place keeps me fit mentally and physically. Love the friendly and social working out. Recommend to any age as never too late to start. Favourite class barbell for sure. Don't be put off as crossfit is for everyone and you don't need to be fit to start. Coaches very welcoming and knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: Easily the best gym I've ever joined. All of the coaches are friendly, encouraging, and knowledgeable and the atmosphere is 100% welcoming and positive. The whole team have also gone above and beyond when it comes to keeping everyone safe and healthy recently. Try a taster and join up - you won't regret it!

Fantastic experience: Been with Fort Ashton for several years but sadly due to moving home to another part of the country I had to sadly leave... commute would have be toooo far. Must say, I havent found another gym/box quite like it. Dan and his team offer a friendly professional place to work out. Its always varied and pitched ideally to all abilities. When I initially made the transition from a conventional gym to Crossfit I was apprehensive. However, Fort Ashton and its community were more than welcoming, all chatting and encouraging with a good banter during workouts to keep you pushing at your best. Thanks to Dan and his team and the encouragement of all its users my fitness levels excelled. Most definitely would recommend Fort Ashton to anyone. Would also say if your feeling nervous about joining.. dont be, take the plunge as they are more than welcoming and you wont look back.

Positive experience: Web site e very good and imformattive

Fantastic experience: The funniest time of my day is in this gym ;) Thanks for teaching me so much!

Fantastic experience: Working out several times at Fort Ashton is one of my highlights each week. Meeting awesome people and while strengthening the body and mind - can't find much wrong with that! Dan and his team are great coaches!

Fantastic experience: Best gym in the UK

Fantastic experience: I attended one of their free trial sessions and was really impressed. I expected this to be quite an intimidating experience but found that it was totally the opposite! The trainer and other gym members were very friendly and welcoming and were able to cater for a whole range of abilities. There was absolutely no hard sell to sign up afterwards. The facilities seem very good with lots of kit and space. If you’re thinking about trying out CrossFit try one of the free sessions, you won’t regret it. It was such a great experience that I signed up the next day.

Fantastic experience: The best decision I've made for myself in years was joining this gym! Couldn't recommend enough! Fort Ashton is home to excellent coaches and some of the friendliest and most welcoming people I've ever had the pleasure to work out with. Dan's created such a special community full of enthusiastic people who work hard and care about each other. The training has been such a game changer and is so varied. The coaches are just so good at what they do!! They take time to teach proper techniques and also to know each member, what we're capable of and when to push us. Seeing your progress is so rewarding. You work hard but it is suitable for everyone! The community is so positive. Everyone looks out and encourages each other, no matter what level you're at, and your workout pals quickly become good friends. I'm the fittest and strongest I've ever been and have the amazing team at Fort Ashton to thank!

Fantastic experience: Expert coaching, great facilities, no ego's. Class

Fantastic experience: What a superb CrossFit box this is. The owner, (Dan) and his coaches run this box on point. The classes are varied, well managed and coached in a manner that enables you to develop your skills. The box has a great buzz to it throughout the whole day and all members are extremely welcoming from the moment you walk in. I’ve been a member of some good boxes in the past but CrossFit Fort Ashton sits alone at the top. Great place, great coaches, great facilities and great fun. Get involved you will not regret it!

Fantastic experience: Amazing space with some of the best fitness instructors I've met in Bristol

Fantastic experience: Such a great gym!! Coaches, facilities, workouts, and the people are just the best. The coaches are so personable, they genuinely care and CrossFit truly is for absolutely anyone and everyone... get involved ! You won’t regret it. X

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Fort Ashton is the most welcoming and friendly gym I've ever had the pleasure of being a member of. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and always happy to assist without being pushy or expecting too much. Scaling options are always offered for WODs and the focus is always on quality movement, not what many people's perceptions of CrossFit often are. I have been an avid gym-goer for many years and was initially a little unsure about joining a CrossFit box. However, after having been a member for a couple of months now, I can honestly say I will never look back. The pricing is more than reasonable and I think it is excellent value for money especially given the quality of coaching on offer. Other members have already become friends and the progress that I've made has been way beyond anything I could have expected. Thanks all!

Positive experience: Good classes that are well programmed, although it can often a little difficult for a newcomer as the pace can be quite unrelenting and no modifications are offered. Good quality kit and nice staff.

Fantastic experience: Fort Ashton is run by a team of passionate, dedicated and highly skilled coaches. They have enabled us to be faster, fitter, stronger than we have ever been. Over the past year we have learnt a lot (and continue to do so) and grown in confidence. Both of which have been possible because of the level of expertise provided by the coaches, the support generated by the members and the friendship we have built together over this past year. We've gained more than a fantastic gym. #teamtiny - built by Fort Ashton.

Fantastic experience: Friendly crossfit box, knowledgeable and helpful staff. Parking can be a bit problematic, but it's generally easy to find road parking nearby whenever you go.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Fort-Ashton is really an amazing Crossfit box from the welcoming staff, coaching staff, equipment and programming - this place is top notch. Prior to CrossFit, I was an avid gym goer for nearly a decade at local 24 Hour Fitness gyms. All I did was lift weights and did close to no cardio. I felt that my fitness gains had plateaued; I was constantly bored and got tired of watching guys do more flexing in the mirror than actual exercise. When I first started to follow CrossFit in May 2012, but never tried it until August 2016. I had no idea I was going to become an addict. I heard a lot of good things about crossfit Fort-Ashton and knew few people going there. So I decided to make the jump. As soon as I walked through the doors I was greeted with a smile by not only the owner and head coach, Dan, but by every single person there. I’ve never felt so welcomed somewhere in my entire life. As soon as we started the workout I knew I was in the right place. Dan walked me through every phase of every movement to make sure I was doing it correctly to avoid injury. SO important and something not many crossfit coaches are patient enough to do. Dan is one of the most knowledgeable, caring and genuine people I’ve ever met. He takes the time to get to know each and every member and knows how to push each person based on their individual abilities. He makes your goals his priority and he does this all while making sure you have proper form. Dan has countless certifications and is privy in all aspects of fitness. His programming is exceptional and as a result every member continues to make significant strides and grow as an athlete. Since then I’ve leaned out, have gotten stronger and would consider myself to be in the best shape of my life.. So to summarize: – CrossFit Fort-Ashton members are awesome. – Coach Dan is legit. – CrossFit gets you SHREDDED & JACKED! – I heart CrossFit

Fantastic experience: Really experienced and professional coaches and the friendliest members. If you haven't experienced Crossfit, it really is for all abilities and Fort Ashton is such a welcoming and inclusive environment.

Fantastic experience: I moved to Bristol 7 months ago, and by chance stumbled upon Crossfit Fort Ashton. From my initial contact and enquiry about classes I was made to feel welcomed and relaxed. I had never tried crossfit before and was slightly worried that I may be out of my depth. This was not the case at all, as the atmosphere is very friendly and members are a varied bunch of age and fitness level. The coaches give great instruction and have built a fantastic supportive community, which make the classes fun but also testing. One thing I didn't expect from joining was to meet so many great people along the way. Can't recommend them enough.

Fantastic experience: Great gym/classes, I'd definitely recommend!!

Fantastic experience: The best gym in Bristol.
