This review is eight years late. I moved to Kent from Tacoma and joined Crossfit Devotion (CFD)…read moreeight years ago. I went to three local CF gyms and instantly felt home at CrossFit Devotion. Jake has a way of making you feel like instant family. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. CFD has fantastic coaches that are L1/L2 trained and focus on form, not just increasing the weight on the bar. They work with the entire spectrum. From beginners to advanced athletes, kids to 80 year olds and everything in between. The coaches are able to easily pivot and modify workouts to your individual needs. They are known within the Crossfit community for their competitions - girls comp, couples comp, etc and always put on a great comp. Highly recommend stopping by for a WOD or joining the CFD family!

It wasn't until I found out my neighbor was thinking the same thing and beat me to it, thus causing me to finally join. Jake and Jared run an amazing, friendly, welcoming and clean gym with coaches that know how to push and hype you up. I also don't think I've ever seen a community as supportive of each other as the members and staff of CFD. On their personal training side, Austin is an excellent personal trainer (and coach) that has a plan for each of your sessions, explains what you're doing and why, as well as hyping you up during your workout. I look forward to returning again as a "new member" when I'm out of school.

It's so nice not having to think of what I need todo at a gym. You show up and they walk you through the work outs. It's faced pace and it's a great work out! I've been to many locations and the trainers here are great and make sure your form is correct. The membership prices are of bad at all! Reasonably priced. - a drop i class is $29 -two week trial is $35!

Case in point, on day one the owner diagnose an issue that I was having with my form for one of the Olympic, weightlifting movements, which another gym in the areas coaches hadn't noticed for seven months, and had led to an injury. Day one Joe diagnosed the problem and it was fixed without me even asking!There are two sides of the gym, dedicated for electric weightlifting on one side, and the other side, high intensity, interval training. This shit is easily accessible, clean, and has easy parking. It is not a globo gym, nor is it simply an iron fitness. There is space for what you need if it's a casino workout, or you're dropping in for open gym or individual weightlifting session. Coaches run classes on time, one hour, which is not the experience that I have had other community style gyms in the past in the area. American flag over the door, attentive coaches and community, never asking for reviews online (a great plus!), accessible in ten minutes or less from JBLM, Lakewood, all the way up to Ruston. Great location for access!

A friend told me about the Groupon deal (which was about $70/month for unlimited classes), so I decided to try it out. Dustin, Jake, Jeremy, Rae, and many other instructors have helped me so much in learning all the right technique and encouraging me to never give up. All the members are so friendly and motivating. Many of the members would come up to me and introduce themselves even after a sweaty and tough workout. Everyone is so encouraging, which makes me give my 100% every WOD. CrossFit is definitely a good workout when you want to get sweaty in less than an hour. It incorporates both strength training and cardio, which is perfect for me. And they have some good pump-up music which is a plus :) I love the environment here, and I will miss everyone who has been part of my CrossFit journey.

They have created a very inviting and accepting environment of trainers and members which can seemingly be the most intimidating part of getting started. So much of enjoying Crossfit goes beyond the results (which you will see). It's about feeling comfortable and welcome at a box as your undertake something new and foreign. Set those fears aside and stop by CFFW; it will be the best decision of your life! The new gym has a great size but isn't so large that it's impersonal. The wide variety of structures class times makes finding a routine for everyone a possibility. If you have any desire to learn about Crossfit or are an experienced Crossfitter looking for a new box, do not hesitate to check out CFFW. Do not wait for circumstances to be perfect. Do not let your fear hold you back. Channel all that angst and uncertainty into aggression while CFFW gives you the platform. Whatever you have to do, find a excuse to win! Let CFFW help you change your life!

I joined three month ago and cannot imagine doing anything else for workouts and going somewhere else. I wish I had started doing cross-fit sooner. I guess, better late than never.

But, there is nothing more exciting than the personal progression in increasing weights, more intensity and increased endurance. Taste of success is sweet, very sweet.

Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. Equipment was organized and neatly stacked in individual workstations. The week before I arrived I had emailed Juanita to let her know I'd be dropping in. She responded right away and sent me the class schedule so I could plan accordingly. Classes started and ended promptly. Metered parking on the street, but it's very cheap. Thanks for making my first drop-in experience a great one!

Since then, they have followed him up to his new gym! I swung by a couple of Saturdays ago and did a 30 min workout here with the guys. I didn't know what to expect, especially since I have never been to a crossfit gym before. Our workout that morning was more conditioning exercises and I actually enjoyed it! We did the 9 AM workout with Coach Anna. I struggled with push presses and Joel and Anna were there to walk me through the movements when my form was not correct. Thank you! Cody was sore the following days and could barely lift his arms. I was decently sore as well. Meaning it was a great workout and it was only 30 min! It is a great space, very clean, and the coaches are very enthusiastic for you to be there! I'll definitely go by again when I am around on the weekends more!

Jordan was my instructor today and she is phenomenal. Coach Nikki is also quite phenomenal herself and one of the owners of the gym.

The facility is clean, inviting, warm, and the community seems great as it was my first time in today. I believe I found my home gym. I have ClassPass, which they do not take it at this time. You have to go to the app called Mindbody to sign up for classes. I highly suggest them if you are looking for a gym nearby in the Maple Valley, Covington, Issaquah, Kent area. I am so happy to have found them and that the owners of the gym are just as involved as the people that work there. I have found my home.
