CrossFit^® ISCA

Fantastic experience: Great place Friendly staff and Dan is a top bloke looking forward to training at place when I move down

Fantastic experience: Superb gym, great atmosphere and coaches

Fantastic experience: Cant recommend CrossFit ISCA enough! I had no experience prior to starting and was definitely apprehensive to join when I first moved to Exeter. However it was the best decision I’ve made. Everyone is so welcoming, all workouts can be adapted to meet you where you are! 10/10 ️‍♀️

Fantastic experience: Great members, great coaches, great times.

Fantastic experience: After cancelling about 10 classes before finally plucking up the courage to go to my first class, I can say that was the best decision I’ve ever made! The most welcoming, friendly & kind community. Having only been doing CrossFit for 3 months, I’ve been supported by the amazing coaches, and fellow members more than by people I’ve known for years! There’s no such thing as feeling silly for not being able to do all the movements straight away. And thanks to all their support, I’ve achieved more in the past 3 months, than in the 3 years of strength training prior to joining CrossFit. 10/10, I couldn’t imagine not being a member of CrossFit Isca!

Fantastic experience: This place is fantastic, brilliant coaching, lots of classes throughout the day, friendly community, dogs, cafe. What more could you want from a gym? Before joining originally I remember hesitating for a long while, fearing that it would be cliquey and intimidating. Nothing could have been further from the truth, members are very welcoming to new people and coaches are brilliant at scaling the movements to your ability. I wish I’d signed up sooner!

Fantastic experience: Joining this CrossFit gym has truly been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From the moment I walked through the doors, I felt like I was part of something special — more than just a gym, it’s a family. The coaches here are phenomenal. They meet you exactly where you are, no matter your fitness level, and they genuinely care about helping you improve, safely and effectively. Every workout is thoughtfully planned, challenging yet scalable, and the coaches take the time to teach proper form and cheer you on every step of the way. But what really sets this place apart is the community. The members are warm, welcoming, and supportive — there’s no ego here, just a group of people who push and encourage each other every single day. Whether it’s your first class or your hundredth, you’ll find someone giving you a fist bump, congratulating you, or even staying after to help you nail that elusive skill you’ve been chasing.

Fantastic experience: ISCA is a great gym with very friendly and knowledgeable coaches, love coming here!

Fantastic experience: Isca is a great gym! Come and join us. You won’t regret it. In fact you’ll definitely wish you did it sooner!

Fantastic experience: Such a friendly, warm and welcoming gym. Felt instantly included and at home in my first class. Everyone there is like a big family. I never felt like I couldn't ask for help and the coaches are all so easy to speak to and knowledgeable. If I ever come to a class thinking I can't do a certain workout. The coaches show me how to adapt the work out to suit my individual needs. and the Christmas party's are FABULOUS.

Fantastic experience: CrossFit ISCA allows you the opportunity to enjoy fitness with like minded people, who soon become part of your family. The gym is one of a kind, and will always hold a special place in my heart. The support from each and every member is next to none, and the coaches are alright too. I don’t think I’d ever step foot in a commercial gym again. #werejustgettingstarted

Fantastic experience: Fantastic CrossFit gym filled with authentic and enthusiastic coaches. You don't have to be fit to be part of this gym, just willing to work on your fitness.

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym - always varied, always fun. Hitting my fitness goals without realising it.

Fantastic experience: The most amazing gym and community! THE BEST CrossFit gym in Exeter. As soon as you walk in the door you are welcomed by friendly faces. You can have a laugh and get extremely fit at the same time. I would never go back to a normal commercial gym!

Fantastic experience: Outstanding CrossFit Experience at CrossFit ISCA! I’ve had the pleasure of training at CrossFit ISCA, and it’s hands-down one of the best fitness communities I’ve ever been a part of. From the moment you step through the door, you’re welcomed by a friendly and supportive environment that makes it easy for beginners and seasoned athletes alike to feel at home. The coaches are truly world-class, combining a wealth of knowledge with an eye for proper technique and safety. They don’t just put you through the motions—they pay close attention to your form, ensuring you’re getting the best workout while minimizing the risk of injury. It’s clear they’re passionate about helping everyone achieve their personal best. CrossFit ISCA has a fantastic range of equipment, a clean and organized facility, and a structured programming approach that challenges you to improve in strength, endurance, and skill. The variety keeps things exciting, and every session feels purposeful and rewarding. Beyond the workouts, the sense of community here is incredible. Fellow members cheer you on, celebrate your wins, and push you to reach your goals. Whether you’re there for fitness, health, or to challenge yourself, CrossFit ISCA offers an experience that leaves you feeling stronger both mentally and physically. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-tier CrossFit gym in the area!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! I thought I would have to give up on CrossFit after having a baby BUT ... not here! Such a family friendly box with coaches/members offering support and help for new mums (and everyone else). Really nice facilities and good focus on different disciplines of CrossFit; classes focused on barbell technique, gymnastics and even cardio (yuck! ) There is always someone with a smile in class too and a nice cafe! X

Fantastic experience: The best gym in Exeter with world class Coaches and Personal Trainers. The atmosphere is always super positive and supportive, with people all ages from all walks of life lifting each other up. If you're a newbie like I was who can barely lift a dumbbell, or some sort of elite superhuman, the workouts can all be scaled to be challenging but still achievable.

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Isca is such an incredible community. The people are so supportive and welcoming and the coaches are amazing!! I started in December 23 and since then, it’s crazy how much my self belief has increased, as well as my strength. In every class, you’re surrounded by beautiful people, both inside and out and I would recommend giving CrossFit ISCA a go. I haven’t looked back!

Fantastic experience: Such an amazing community, felt welcomed right from the off by coaches and other members. Everything can be adjusted to suit your needs so it really is suitable for everyone and anyone. After being a long time commercial gym goer this is so much better ❤️

Fantastic experience: You get to make great friends, get fit and strong, drink great coffees, eat lovely snacks, and become part of the most supportive and friendly community- what more could you want!! Supportive, encouraging and helpful coaches and members all there to get the best out of one another and bring so much energy and vibes For your mental and physical wellbeing - this is the place to be!

Fantastic experience: Great place. It's not easy but it's worth it

Fantastic experience: Looking for a gym where you'll feel welcomed from your first inquiry to your first class? This is the place for you. The inclusivity and community here are unparalleled. No matter your level or ability, doing your best is what counts. Your efforts are celebrated not just by the coaches but by every member, making you feel like you've known them forever. Every workout offers options to scale, and the coaches are always ready to answer any questions with expertise and passion. Having gone through knee surgery, I was nervous about returning to CrossFit. However, from my first class, I knew I had made the right choice. I haven't looked back since.

Fantastic experience: I was quite nervous joining this gym, didn't know anyone but everyone was so welcoming. 5 months later and I am loving this place.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in on an early morning WOD last week, whilst travelling down to the South West to visit family. Received an immediate response to my enquiry and a lovely welcome the following day from the whole class. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend and will certainly be back - Crossfit family

Fantastic experience: Having never done CrossFit before I was abit apprehensive about joining but I’m so happy I did. The classes can be scaled so it doesn’t matter if you’re a complete novice like me or someone who competes regularly you’ll get a great workout either way. The knowledge and coaching you get are amazing. My only regret is I can’t train every day!

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Isca is not simply a gym. I have changed and improved in my fitness and strength in so many more ways, and beyond any prior gym routine, from joining Isca. The skill of the instructors and the passion they have means you improve much quicker; the group training means you have the encouragement to push a little more each time, the inclusiveness from the whole community means you never feel like you can't do it. This has always been the winner for me, as someone who likes to hide in the corner and not be noticed normally at at gym! But more than anything, the people are just great fun. The community makes exercising and getting fit and strong, fun!

Fantastic experience: Can’t imagine life without this place now. The best community, the best coaches, awesome programming…did I mention the best community?

Fantastic experience: Honestly, what a CrossFit gym. Both coaches and members are so friendly and welcoming; you don’t feel like a paying customer, but instead a family member. Both programming and sessions are suitable for any members whether new or skilled. As well as a top notch coffee and smoothie bar. A place I very much so miss whilst travelling, but a place that I know I am always welcome back at.

Fantastic experience: Love this place! I’ve never done the same workout twice and have been supported to develop my skills and fitness. I have also made a whole new group of fabulous people I look forward to hanging out with. Thanks Isca, you’re the best!

Fantastic experience: This place has become my second home , the coaching is amazing , I challenge myself each and every time I walk through the doors But mostly you can’t beat the community , full of love , laughter and support . Everyone is welcome !

Fantastic experience: As a newbie to CrossFit, it’s daunting going into a new gym but the friendliness and helpfulness of not just the coaches, but everyone there made me want to go back. What a great decision I made joining! Would recommend to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I joined ISCA two months ago and it is like joining a big family. It is completely inclusive - all of the workouts can be scaled to your ability. Great programming and coaches always give 100%. Loads of class times to choose from too. Kids and dogs are welcome which is a huge bonus not having to miss workouts due to lack of childcare! Great fun and always a good start to the day. You will not regret joining!

Fantastic experience: The best decision I made this year. The coaching, vibe and coffee is A*. I’ve improve in the last 12 months and cannot wait to see where the next 12 months take me. You will not regret joining or dropping in.

Fantastic experience: I have been at CROSSFIT ISCA for 6 months now, and it has been one of the best decisions I have ever made! The best bunch of people you could wish to train with. There is never any judgment, but the support you receive is second to none.

Fantastic experience: I have been to a few crossfit gyms having started in London. I also tried a few in the South West before settling on ISCA. It really is the cream of the crop. Great programming, great coaches, great community atmosphere. You don't need to be superfit to start here. Anything can be scaled to your level of fitness . You definitely won't regret joining ISCA to start or continue your Crossfit journey!

Fantastic experience: Ace CF gym. Dave makes a fab brew, dog friendly, drop-in friendly. Added 17.5Kg to a PB today there. So unforgettable

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym - dropped in 3 times whilst in the area. Welcoming gym with high quality programming and a great atmosphere. Would recommend to anyone passing through and especially anyone in the Exeter area.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in town! Since leaving Exeter, I’ve not found any gym that comes close to the friendly and supportive welcome you get at Isca. All abilities are welcomed, classes are structured, progressive and fun. You’ll struggle to find a more encouraging environment. I made so many friends that whenever I’m back in town, coming to Isca for a workout & a coffee will be number 1 on my to do list.

Fantastic experience: Came in for a complementary class to give it a go. I was instantly made to feel welcome, Cat made me feel instantly at ease as she spoke to me one to one walking me through all the exercises that would be taking place. Don't get me wrong the session was hard work but very enjoyable at the same time. I will be coming for another class.

Fantastic experience: CrossFit ISCA is for anyone that wants to join an all inclusive friendly bunch of people that enjoy keeping fit and socialising! You will be made to feel welcome and part of their large team from the moment you set foot in the door! Oh and Dave at Cafe ISCA makes the BEST coffees in Exeter

Fantastic experience: I fell out of love with exercise, then I joined Isca! The team are fantastic, I’ve learnt so much in 8 months since joining. They’re a friendly bunch too!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, great people and instructors who support all levels. I love that everyday is different but hard… it’s always hard so you get ya monies worth.

Fantastic experience: I used to change gyms every 6 months because I got bored…I’ve been here 5 years and still love it! Every session is different, there is always a new challenge and you never stop learning. The coaches and community are amazing. Thank you for keeping me sane ISCA ❤️

Fantastic experience: The most amazing gym, I literally can't think of any way it could be improved. Incredible community plus really knowledgeable and super welcoming coaches who make every session fun while pushing you to learn and achieve more, whatever your experience or fitness level. Can't recommend it enough, my only regret is not joining sooner!

Fantastic experience: Super supportive community and great facilities very glad I got involved

Fantastic experience: Top gym, top class coaching and social members.

Fantastic experience: Really great gym, really great environment, even better coaches!!

Fantastic experience: Such a fantastic gym! Amazing community and vibes. All the best equipment and super knowledgeable and friendly coaches to help you keep pushing towards your goals!

Fantastic experience: I have been training at ISCA (nee.TFE) for just over 2 years since I moved to Exeter and it really is the best gym in the city. The programming is suitable for ANYONE and everyone, it is fun, it is challenging and it is varied. The coaching is top notch. The gym itself is ideal - free parking, open 24/7, so many classes to choose from, it is completely kitted out with everything you could need, showers and lovely changing facilities with hair dryers and straighteners. Dave makes a very good coffee at the on-site cafe & there’s even a Barbershop upstairs too. Leaving the best til last; the people. A bunch of likeminded humans all here for themselves but also everyone else. Got some good pals out of this place. Community is a big part of CrossFit & Isca has smashed it out the park.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym! Dan and all the others are great coaches. I’ve finally found a fitness routine that I can actually stick to. 55 years old and accepted with smiles and hellos every time. You can scale things down without any judgement. So still able to compete. I weirdly enjoy it. Thanks ISCA!

Fantastic experience: I was never much of a gym person before joining Isca. I have found gym envirnoments to be overwhelming and off putting. CrossFit Isca is a total contrast to those environments. The coaches are genuinely supportive, they have an interest in seeing you improve, both for your physical and mental health. They spend time getting to know you and your needs. The team is super supportive and there is a definite 'we're all in it together' vibe rather than competition which is refreshing. Classes that fit around your life, generally good music choices and always something new to try.

Fantastic experience: Am new to CrossFit and not as young as I used to be and everyone has made me feel very welcome and the training is excellent

Fantastic experience: Such an epic community of motivated, friendly and welcoming people from all walks of life. Isca has revolutionised my fitness journey, from slaving away at my local gym doing the same old routines to being pushed by the coaches, friends, athletes (AKA the Isca family) to reach new PBs and actually work on my weaknesses. Join the constantly varied classes, embrace the unknown, meet some epic people, you won't regret it ❤️

Fantastic experience: Very friendly, great vibe. Get fitter whilst having fun and making new friends.

Fantastic experience: The programming is fantastic and fully inclusive for all abilities. The coaches are all very approachable and helpful. The energy at Isca is inspiring and keeps everyone motivated. My absolute favourite place to be in the morning.

Fantastic experience: Great place to train!

Fantastic experience: Great facilities and amazing team

Fantastic experience: Great fun!

Fantastic experience: I love this space! The community is fabulous and mega supportive! From the minute you walk in the door you feel welcome and the people are fantastic! I confess I am not a gym lover - but I love this gym! You can come and workout with people that will support your achievements and also be there to pick you up when you're down. Some of the best friendships I have were made in this gym. The coaching and programme is incredible and Dave's coffees and protein shakes are a total treat! Literally zero negatives about it! My all time favourite members are the doggos!

Fantastic experience: Really is the best gym I've ever been to. I've always struggled to not see going to the gym as a chore so I've struggled to stick to it. Crossfit ISCA makes working out fun and meaningful. Wonderful coaches, atmosphere and programming. Now its a chore having to take days off to rest.

Fantastic experience: I joined CrossFit Isca in January and was made so welcome!! I’m still learning but the coaching is so good I’m getting there! I was really nervous when I started but everyone was really friendly. I’ve already noticed a difference physically and that’s only doing 2 sessions a week!

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Isca is a place that feels like home. It's been my favourite place to be since I first walked through the doors. The people here are amazing - they're supportive, encouraging, and always willing to lend a helping hand. The atmosphere at CrossFit Isca is unlike any other gym I've ever been to! The 24-hour access is a game-changer, allowing me to work out whenever I want, without having to worry about gym hours. And the coffee shop that sells Soleros, coffee, snacks and smoothies is just too good! It's the perfect place to grab a post-workout snack or catch up with friends. Simply put, people need CrossFit Isca in their lives. It's a place where you can challenge yourself, make new friends, and become part of a community that supports and encourages one another. The actual CrossFit is pretty good too ☺️Thank you, CrossFit Isca, for being my favourite place to be.

Fantastic experience: My favourite non commercial gym. Fantastic coaches and WODs. A gym filled with encouragement

Fantastic experience: You don't have to be fit or strong to join this gym. The journey to that is the best ride! Go to a gym where people celebrate you pushing yourself out of your comfort zone just like this amazing picture of my very amazing supportive friend celebrating my PB! Great people, great dogs, family friendly, socials, any age and ability welcome, the list goes on.
