Thanks for the review Vince, really pleased you are happy with what we do and good people like you motivate us to provide the best possible experience every time you attend. See you at your next class.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic large CrossFit gym ♂️. Really good programming and enjoyable too
Really pleased you like it Bill
Fantastic experience: Amazing place to train and a really special community. The coaches and members are really friendly and the coaching is top quality. The box is huge so you're not on top of other people during classes unlikely many other boxes. The Hyrox classes are brilliant and really accessible for people who want something a bit different to CrossFit. Since starting to do the Hyrox classes regularly I have never felt fitter! Highly recommend.
Great to hear Alice, thanks for reviewing us
Fantastic experience: A fantastic cross fit studio! My son is taking the teen class here, I can’t recommend this place enough. The class is always well-built, the coach is professional, thorough, caring , and cool and strict enough at the same time - exactly what teenagers need to pay attention. Everybody is super nice and the whole atmosphere is very welcoming here.
Really pleased you like what we do, thank you for the review.
Fantastic experience: Wonderful box. Really friendly and good programming. Also yoga with Rebecca is a highlight of my week. I'm sad to be moving away but the class bundles are great for those who can't attend as frequently as they want.
Fantastic experience: Welcoming and friendly. But be prepared to sweat.
Fantastic experience: Really friendly people, clients and staff. Clearly know their stuff. Would recommend Tom's classes and will definitely be back.
Fantastic experience: Its place for CrossFit
Fantastic experience: Great WOD. Awesome programming. Loved the warm up and stretching all within the hour. Clearly well structured and organised box. Also. Massive. Loved it. Also. Has FitAID
Fantastic experience: I was resistance at first, worried that it was going to be too difficult...It’s been a year since I joined and best decision ever! They are so welcoming, professional and approachable. The classes are designed for many levels, which really helps if you don’t feel ready for more complex techniques, but it’s great to carry on progressing. Real sense of community too
Fantastic experience: Great facilities plus very welcoming, clued-up trainers!
Fantastic experience: Love this gym. Really inclusive. Great classes, great trainers & a real community.
Fantastic experience: Awesome gym and very spacious, the coaches are super friendly, encouraging and professional. There are different classes everyday and accommodate to people with different levels. This is the first Crossfit box that I've joined since I arrived in London and it makes me feels very welcoming and motivated . Definitely recommend to anyone who wants to improve their overall fitness level.
Fantastic experience: Loved my first session here! Super friendly and helpful coach, I didn’t feel too overwhelmed being new to it, and the gym is spacious and lovely. Def will be joining.
Fantastic experience: I have been in several Crossfit boxes and is the first time that I found an amazing atmosphere, team and trainers. The box is well equipped and you will be able to see your improvements almost on a daily/classe basis :)
Negative experience: Cette salle n'existe pas ou alors elle est mal indiqué sur maps, déçu de passer 30min a chercher quelque chose qui n'existe pas
Hi Fabian, I am very sorry you were unable to find us. Our address clearly states we are located in Guillemot Place (shown on the map on the contact page of the website) which is on the main sign of the gates at the bottom of Clarendon Road ( the road leads directly to it as it is a cul de sac) and out of the 3 buildings in there, we are the one on the left with a sign in the entrance. I am disappointed you decided to review us with one star just because you were unable to find us, as this can be damaging to an independent business for which you are not a member of or even had a booking at. If you had been, we would have been able to help you should you have been confused as to where to go. As you can see from our other reviews we strive to offer the best possible service and would love to try and make things right with you. Please drop us an email and I will set you up with a complementary session and detailed directions so you don't have a wasted trip this time. Regards CFNL
Fantastic experience: Great gym, really enjoyed the programming and the coaches were really helpful. Will be back again next holiday
Thanks Braden, look forward to seeing you next time you're in town.
Fantastic experience: Excellent gym that introduced me to the world of CrossFit. Great coaches. I felt like my fitness and skill improved each session.
Fantastic experience: Love the place, love the vibe
Fantastic experience: I've been a member at a couple of Boxes now and I Couldn't recommend CFNL any more, Ged and his team of coaches are welcoming, knowledgable, and experts in developing individiauls. The programming follows cycles with clear overloading and progressive principles and I saw massive changes to my strength and fitness without having to even think about my own programming. There is a very welcoming enivoroment and the gym has an option for people of all abilities; and, shapes and sizes. The gym is a massive space with all the equipment you need for crossfit, budybuilding, and powerlifting. The only reason I'm leaving is because i'm moving out of the area and even then i considered an hour commute! Big thank you to all the CFNL team for all thier knowledge, tips, & motivation over my time with them!
Fantastic experience: It's not a cheap option but you absolutely get what you pay for. The trainers are attentive and incredibly patient. The clientele are a far cry from gym bunnies of old so I doubt even the shoes attendee would feel self-conscious. Everyone is friendly, helpful and encouraging. There are different activities throughout the week and the trainers take part in competitions; hence they really know their stuff. Also a minor point perhaps but the space is clean and well maintained.
Fantastic experience: Nice place to work out. Friendly trainers and staff and everything is easy enough to find. Tons of equipment too so i havent really had to wait around for things.
Fantastic experience: Best box I've been to. The quality of Ged and his coaching team is really excellent - they are super attentative to each member of the class - regardless of ability. There is a nice variety of classes available and the programming of each of them is great. The Olympic weightlifting sessions in particular were my favourite - I've never progressed so quickly! The quality of the the equipment also deserves a mention. Everything is pristine despite being used so much. Overall a great setup and and I'd highly recommend to anyone looking for a CrossFit gym in the area. Thanks for all the help guys
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this gym. Great coaches, great facilities, great members. Always loved coming in to do a big workout and, as a crossfit beginner, I felt welcomed and guided along the way. Made lots of progress. Sadly I’m moving away otherwise I would still be there working on my PB and complaining about burpies ❤️
Fantastic experience: Huge CrossFit-friendly gym in North London. Member for 2 years now and enjoying it. Definitely worth a try if you’re in the area.
Fantastic experience: Great crossfit box with super professional coaches (Oliver, Ged and Dan) giving out advised tips and pushing you when you're not feeling that well. The facility is also huge and well maintained. Everyone is welcoming ! A shame that I didn't spend more time due to COVID, but I will come back whenever I'm in London ;) All the best and thanks !
Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed my time here, the coaches were excellent and made sure your form was on point! Super motivating and made me want to find another crossfit gym near my new house
Fantastic experience: Great facilities and coaches
Fantastic experience: Great space, great trainers. Love to come here and suffer with Dan!
Fantastic experience: I am moving out of London at the end of the month and I am sure I will not easily find such a combination of professionalism, friendly spirit and good quality structure as I found at CrossFit North London. I have been welcomed with a smile from day 1 and I recommend this gym to all the people that, like me, want to feel part of a team and be motived and pushed beyond their limits.
Fantastic experience: This gym is absolutely fantastic, the space is really big (which is highly appreciated, even more now) and the coaches are very helpful and professional. I always have the best time when doing the WODs because the atmosphere is very friendly and positive, and you feel encouraged to work out. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Good facilities. Lots of classes which makes it easy to book. Great coaches.
Fantastic experience: Where else can you find this much space in a gym in London?
Fantastic experience: I have absolutely loved going to this box! The team are all so lovely and will take the time to coach you. The only reason I have to leave is because I’m relocating. Can’t recommend this place enough!! Thank you for everything, 5 stars
Fantastic experience: I was in London for vacation during the CrossFit Open and had a short window of time to get it done at an off hour. Head coach Gerard was super responsive and helpful. I was judged by super coach Jess who went out of her way for me and even got to join in on a WOD. I'll definitely be back here!!
Fantastic experience: Being at CFNL for 3 years has been an absolute life-changer. As well as being just plain fun, I've learned to eat differently, drink less, reduce postural issues, and diagnose and fix a dodgy shoulder. The facilities are outstanding, the atmosphere is great, the class programming is a really useful mix of techniques and the coaching is first class. Can't recommend enough!
Fantastic experience: Welcoming and friendly coaches who helped my technique as a beginner - fully recommended. Very big gym, apparently biggest crossfit box (gym) in London.
Negative experience: Had a seminar there and the coaches were SO disrespectful to the speaker it was UNREAL.. I could hardly believe it.. £210 for the seminar for Dr Jacob Harden as well.. I DONT recommend!!!!!
Hi Peter, I am sorry you had a bad experience for the seminar back in May. The host of this seminar chose not hire the entire gym and was made well aware that classes would continue alongside this course. We never had any complaints from Dr Harden or anyone else and the price for the seminar is set by Dr Harden which we have nothing to do with us. My coaches are extremely professional and work alongside many other seminars with no complaints, was there was a specific incident that happened? Or did you just feel the coaches were not being quiet enough? If it was the latter then this again was really down to the Dr Harden choosing not to hire the entire place. To be perfectly honest this negative review is mostly to do with an external seminar that has nothing to do with us. Our coaches are extremely respectful of anyone coming to CFNL as all our other reviews highlight. As mentioned Dr Harden did not mention any problems and I feel your negative review should be directed towards to the external course provider not CrossFit North London.
Fantastic experience: Dropped in for open gym from America, amazing atmosphere and an awesome gym space; hope to come back one day!
Fantastic experience: Great crossfit box with professional coaches.
Fantastic experience: I have been training with Ged and the team since 2014. It has been life changing. The coaches are highly trained and give great support. I cannot recommend training here any higher. Thanks guys!
Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere, facilities and classes. A really great community with friendly and driven coaches. Really pleased with the experience.
Fantastic experience: Trained at CrossFit North London during my Christmas holiday in London. What a great place to come; great new facility, dedicated and professional trainers and fabulous members. Thank you for making me feel so welcome - and I’ll be back next time I’m in London.
Fantastic experience: Really nice atmosphere and the coaches are excellent! Awesome support for beginners and emphasis on safety. Thumbs up!
Positive experience: The best box in North London. Began my CrossFit life prior to moving to the UK 2 months ago. I had no experience with olympic lifting, gymnastics or calisthenics prior to CrossFit. I know I have a lot to learn and my goal in every class I go to give the HIIT programs all I've got and to constantly try and improve my technique. The strength programming and instruction is excellent in this box. All coaches pay attention to what everyone is doing and correct mistakes, help you improve, gently push you and are always available for a brief chat about scaling. I can't stand it when coaches yell to try and push me and this never happens here. To assist you in improving and because there is very little to no time for detailed demoing of movements during the WODs this box runs an excellent Olympic Weightlifting class twice weekly, gymnastics once weekly and an engine tuning/skills class once weekly. Of the four boxes I have come to in the last 2 months this is by far my favourite and I'm proud to call this my home away from home.
Fantastic experience: just started coming here , friendly place and the coaches are great ! really professional and friendly
Fantastic experience: 5 is not an over estimation for the level of train I received at this place. “Jed” is the main instructor down at North London’s CrossFit and I can’t sing his praises enough. It’s true that “we dont know what we got until it’s gone” and I’ve experienced that when I left to go to a CrossFit closer to home in Hertfordshire. The training just didn’t match up with what I was getting back in North London. Although CrossFit seems expensive compared to gyms, in my opinion it should be compared more to having a personal trainer because the level of focus they give to new comers is exceptional. It doesn’t matter which trainer you get in North London they are all just as good and all share the same goals and visions to get you into shape. They go above and beyond, not just with the physical aspect of excersice, but with important information on why we do what we do in CrossFit. They also do a lot of mobility work that didn’t seem to be part of the other crossfit schedul. This was such an important part in my opinion as it helps with mobility that effectively reduces the risk of injury. the best thing to do is to just get involved with little thinking. It doesn’t matter if your new to fitness they welcome all levels. men and women of all off ages take part so there’s no need to feel out of place. I now go back here and it feels like home. Hope this review helps you make the best decision you can with regards to fitness. James
Fantastic experience: Excellent standard of coaching combined with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Good gym.
Fantastic experience: I was a casual gym go'er that hadn't trained in 5 months and started in May as I wanted to lose a few lbs over the Summer and it's now December and I'm still getting up at 6am in the morning to get to classes. I absolutely love the combination of strength, cardio and mobility work. Initially I was apprehensive after watching YouTube video's about the intensity of the workouts and seeing the condition of some of the athletes but my mind was soon put at ease as the instructors are excellent, knowledgeable and genuinely care about your progression and development. The workouts are challenging (scaled to your fitness and strength levels), the programs are well structured based on your development goals and the atmosphere is fantastic - friendly, supportive and competitive. I would recommend this to anyone who has plateaued with general gym work who is up for a challenge and wants to make some serious well being changes to their body. If I hadn't have started this I would probably have needed a hip replacement in 10 years! Thank you to the CFNL team - Ged, Travis, Marcos, Michal, Kathryn (and James for getting me into this and keeping me going!) for your support this year - looking forward to 2018!
Fantastic experience: My favourite place in London! Super atmosphere, great coaches and community. Would recommend to anyone wanting to get healthy to join!
Fantastic experience: When I started at Crossfit North London a year and a half ago I struggled to run around the block (450m). Last month I ran a 10k - and did it with a bunch of the nicest people I've ever known - all of which is thanks to this place!
Fantastic experience: Great place
Fantastic experience: Salah and his mrs oh and yaz haha
Fantastic experience: Coaching staff are friendly, it's a great space and we'll located near the trains. I also love the community spirit here.
Fantastic experience: The place looks simple and could be more spacious but the atmosphere is very friendly and the coaching, quality. The program is also really good. I recommend the Olympic Lifting classes.
Fantastic experience: Super accueil par les coaches. Salle située juste en face de la gare, facile d'accès.
Fantastic experience: Top coaches! Really good sessions and great facilities! I'm going to miss this box!
Fantastic experience: Great place for anyone to join.
Fantastic experience: Best box atmosphere. Well thought out workouts, with structured in mobility strength and speed elements. Lots of Olimpic lifting. Great coaches. Cheers guys!
Fantastic experience: Best box, best coaches, best CrossFit experience you're likely to find in London. It's a double thumbs up from me
Negative experience: Avoid this place i was treated badly by one of the trainers and they tricked me to pay online for a session which i didnt use or need they blamed me for not understand the website and the system i wrote emails to the management to explain but i got no response
Hi Nasr. We are sorry to hear that you feel you have been treated badly by one of our trainers but the comment you have posted is a fabrication. It was yourself who booked a session with a coach and did not turn up despite a clear 24 hour cancellation policy. You were contacted by management and in fact received a full refund as a gesture of good will. Therefore we are at a loss to understand why you have felt it necessary to post a comment which is untrue. We can only assume that it is in order to damage the reputation of this business. This is not something we wish to comment further on in a public forum but we will be emailing you regarding this post.
Fantastic experience: I've just celebrated my one year anniversary with CFNL this year and I really can't rate it enough. I started Cross-fit in an effort to improve my strength for climbing and have gone from plateauing at climbing grade 6a+ to regularly attempting (and sometimes flashing) 6c's. 7a is on the agenda for early next year.. something I never thought I'd even say.. My confidence at work has improved. My appreciation for my diet, my family and friends has also improved.. Aside from being a great deal fitter and more accomplished, this environment pushes you to be better.. not just at Cross-fit, but at everything. The coaches are varied and inspiring, but no more so than that person struggling through a 25kg snatch next to you. Its epic. Try it. We'll encourage you, we'll sweat with you, and we'll cheer you on..
Fantastic experience: Great coaches, great workout, great atmosphere. Totally recommend it, to anyone!
Fantastic experience: Amazing coaching, I have been a member of CFNL for well over a year now and I have loved every moment. The community is wonderful and the atmosphere is great.
Fantastic experience: Crossfit North London helps you to forge flabby bits of your body into muscle! As you go through the process of improvement you will be aching in muscles you didn't know you had. This is where the coaches come in - they provide you with the knowledge to understand the mechanics of your body; how to develop correct technique and encourage you to perform at your best. All you need to do is to bring your A game to every workout!
Fantastic experience: One month in and I'm loving it! I've been a runner for several years and reached a plateau, mainly due to lack of motivation. Those roads can be lonely sometimes.... A friend recommended cross fit to improve my running and overall strength and fitness so I thought I'd give it a go. I'm still a newby but can honestly say I feel improvements already. What's really surprised me more is how much fun it is (don't get me wrong, those WOD's are tough...) but there's a really great atmosphere and everyone is really friendly and motivating no matter what level you are. As for the coaching? It's the best!
Fantastic experience: I've been coming to CFNL for a year and can say hand on heart that it offers the best, most motivating, most enjoyable, and most effective workouts I've ever tried, and having been a member of two other gym chains I've tried most classes on offer! The exercise itself is hugely rewarding and hugely enjoyable. I've seen my fitness, strength and physique transform in 12 months and am in better shape than I've probably ever been in my life. When I leave all I want to do is go back, even on the days when I've felt frustrated by my progress. If time allowed I'd be in there six days a week. The coaches are hands down the best I've trained with; motivating and motivated, attentive, helpful, knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming. I always feel supported by them. The community is warm, friendly, and generous spirited, and I'm proud to have made a handful of really good friends there in the last year. Above all this is the most fun I've ever had working out. I'd recommend it to everyone. Hang on - I *do* recommend it to everyone. Ad nauseam!
Fantastic experience: I'm here 10 years so far! Nuff said. Proper experienced coaching. Friendly without being annoying. And no injuries yet. Good blend of weights and fitness.
Fantastic experience: First class coaching with a real sense of community. Well worth a try!
Fantastic experience: I only discovered CrossFit about four weeks ago when I joined the club. This is probably the best physical training I have ever done (I'm 47) with a great balance between flexibility, functional strength and cardiovascular fitness. The coaches are all very effective and friendly maintaining high levels of motivation in all the classes. There is also a real sense of camaraderie and mutual support among the club members. The CrossFit sessions typically involve one of the coaches working with 8 or fewer club members- Lots of 'personal training' like benefits at a fraction of the price.All exercises have a number of scaled-down alternatives so a very wide range of fitness, flexibility and strength levels can be accommodated in any class. I would highly recommend crossfitnorthlondon to anyone who is interested in getting really fit and staying that way-Bill Briggs
