    I have been to multiple CrossFit gym and other gyms in the area, and this is highest quality one by…read morefar. Owners are involved and are experienced coaches. 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!

    Worst company! Do not shop here. They will screw you over! They have TERRIBLE!!!! Customer service!…read moreI was called names by their employee. They overcharge. And don't send you what they say they are going to send. Oh, and trying to return is even worse. They try and rip you off BAD! Then they try and make you pay more money to return it than it was to buy it? Haha, how does that make sense?

    I have never done CrossFit before, but I wanted to give it a try while I am staying at Federal Way…read morefor about 6 weeks. 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.

    I have been training Crossfit for 3+ years and CFFW is a huge reason why I've been able to sustain…read moreit! 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!

    Follow up: I am now…read moregoing on my 4th month of my Hot Yoga journey with Expand Yoga Federal Way. I want to share everything I've learned during this time. I practice around 5 days a week. I mostly attend Original Hot but have pushed myself to try Vinyasa and Yin. I LOVE doubling up on an Original Hot day with Yin. My body feels stronger now than it has in years and it's been a slow build to this point since I began my journey. In the time I've been practicing, not only have I progressed physically in my postures but mentally I have gained so much confidence. It was a struggle when I first started just looking at myself in the mirror. I am a tired, hard working mom with 3 boys. It was hard to look at who I am now compared to who I was before all that. As time went on, I started to face myself and gain confidence in the strong woman I am. I no longer want to look away and I appreciate what I see in front of me. I never would have had this, had I not started practicing with Expand. The studio is such a friendly and welcoming community. I've made so many new Yoga friends that I enjoy practicing with. We cheer each other on, we love going to the same classes together and it's nice to meet people who love the practice as much as I do. Yin has become a fast favorite class for me. I describe it as deep stretching with meditation. It has helped me improve so much in my flexibility with Original Hot. If I can, I double it up with Original Hot. However, it is a class that I would just take alone as well. It is so relaxing and almost a spa like experience. Vinyasa is my challenge. I swear every time I take that class I just relish in how improved I am with Original Hot I take Vinyasa though because it is my weakness. I am usually sore after the class and it throws my body out of its usual routine. My hope is that one day it isn't a class I drag myself to but rather one I strive to take. Original Hot is my GO TO. I could practice it over and over without getting bored. Even though it's always the same 26 postures, there is always room for growth and improvement- as with any of the classes to be honest. I LOVE the hot temps of the room and just feel this burst of energy after the class. It's really such a natural high. I've even doubled up with Original Hot twice in one day. THAT was exhilarating. The studio itself is so spacious and can clearly house many comfortably. I love the heating elements in the room. It creates a different level of heat than I have experienced at other studios. It's next level but doesn't wipe you out. Every instructor is amazing. Each one wants you to improve and will give instructions for corrections. They have each taught me something new multiple times. It's fun when they get excited with you on your improvements. I feel like I have a group of cheerleaders. Everyone is great at making you feel special and important to this community they are building. After class, every instructor is happy to help you with any questions you have. They are also great at demonstrating and explaining the why. Their experience shows with their knowledge. I just don't know where I would be right now if it weren't for Expand Yoga Federal Way. I feel like I was just floating with no direction with the same thing happening every day. I look forward to my classes and I walk around feeling confident rather than hiding myself. I love just getting that time to myself to center without any distractions. If you can try this studio, don't walk... RUN! You won't regret it. Thank you so much Expand Yoga!!

    I have been doing yoga around the world for most of my adult life and I'm almost 50 years old now…read more This "sculpt" class with the instructor Tomio, was probably the most boring class I have ever attended. I barely broke a sweat and his voice and tone gave the impression that he was reciting the most dry text book for the 100th time and he didn't even want to be bothered. He gave insufficient communication when sequencing and teaching, having no cues for breathing, giving no explanation or modification, having no clear explanation of what muscles students should be engaging and only using about 75% of class time for actual exercises. He used so much time up for talking, changing music and water breaks, it was actually a good waste of my time. He clearly had some experience with upper body strength, but his class was full of older people who didn't have the same ability as he did. He didn't read the room and adjust to his student's abilities or give any modifications or suggestions for older people who couldn't perform his unrealistic exercises. Most students were 40+ women and he had the class doing planks or push ups for the majority of the practice. I couldn't leave fast enough because he repeats everything he says at least twice, as though it's a nervous tic, and it's very hard for someone who is an instructor to listen to his communication skills. He couldn't even count down without repeating himself and counting double. I also kept pulling long hairs from my weights. Yuck! After class, I tried to rinse off in the shower and it was full of a bunch of dark brown hair. I don't think this place is for me.
