What a cool place for kids to get their energy out! HUGE ninja course and plenty of things for kids of all ages. Definitely worth the drive for us and hoping to go again soon. My kids gave 2 thumbs up!
We came here for a birthday party. The staff was extremely careful and watched out for the kids. Our hostess, Emma, is a saint, and should get a raise! She made sure the kids were entertained and everything ran smoothly.Its very possible that my kid will want her birthday party here!
Love this place! Far better than the competitors down the road. Love the comfy couches, love the charging stations, love the availability and friendliness of the staff to help and play with the kids. I like the new layout and it looks like they are currently making some good upgrades. I wish it had more snacks available, which it looks like they are adding with the upgrades. I’ve been in the summer when it’s way too hot, but today the temperature was fantastic. I like it way better than the trampoline places, where there always seems to be a kid hurt, and they are loud as heck. Look forward to seeing what upgrades they are making!
We love Strong Fitness! Everyone there is so kind and helpful. We hosted our son’s birthday party there and it was amazing, even better than we expected!! Thank you!!
Amazing! Took the kids here for Mother’s Day, we had the best time ever! The staff was super attentive and very friendly. They gave us a nice tour of the facilities, and we had such a great workout. I definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants some good quality family time.
This is the coolest & most advanced box I’ve ever seen. The place is half fitness (gym) and half “fun”, a kids gym ranging from toddler play to obstacle courses like you see on American Ninja Warrior. They offer all sorts of classes for all ages. The owner, Gale, is the most kind & down to earth guy ever. Definitely worth checking out if you have kids or just want to score a great work out & meet cool people.
Lots of fun, great place to get some energy out. We went for a birthday party and came back the next weekend with some friends since we had so much fun.The smaller kids area was perfect for my 2 year oldAll of the kids loved the legos and train table when they wanted to take a break. We really enjoyed how clean and friendly the location and staff are. We will be back!
Awesome place! Super clean and amazing facilities. All ages and skill levels can have a great time and be challenged!
Super friendly staff and great coaches. There is a huge area for both ninja classes and free play. The place is always clean and they serve yummy coffee, smoothies, and food while you wait for your kiddos.
I love it, my daughter loved it! Our instructor for the movement class was patient, he flexed the activities for all the kids skill levels without depriving the more advanced kids of the experience. I love it.
I cannot share enough positive things about this gym! As a former college athlete, I struggled to find a gym in Dallas that had challenging workouts, but most importantly- terrific coaching staff that put form, quality, and safety first. I finally found that at Strong. There is a workout for every level and every single coach has been so helpful, educated, and truly dedicated to the health and progress of members. I also really like the clear, consistent, and transparent communication from the owner. Finally, my favorite thing about Strong is the community that the owner has built. I have met so many amazing people and the gym always has great gatherings, events, and fun challenges. Absolutely recommend!
The good decisions cafe here is worth it. Very clean facility. Excellent vibes all around. Pizza 🍕 at a gym!
This gym has it all! Truly something for everyone. The culture and atmosphere is everything you’d expect from a place designed for people to reach their personal bests. Love this gym, and the staff!! They’ll change what you think the definition of a gym should be.
I loved it my brother had his own birthday there it was awesome I loved it so did my brother and the other people that went to his birthday loved it
This place is huge! Weightlifting, crossfit, and Ninja warrior. What more could you want? Nice staff? Oh they have that too. Best gym in Dallas!
Strong Dallas is an INCREDIBLE gym! Though I was only a member for the 3 months that I was in Dallas, I grew to love this gym so much. From day 1, I felt warmly welcomed in an intentional way by everyone in the gym community. All of the coaches are incredibly gifted and highly skilled, and they truly care about each and every athlete’s success. I continually felt challenged to strive for greater excellence in my fitness, but I also had so much FUN doing it! It really blessed me to be a part of this wonderful community. This is hands-down one of the best gyms around!!!!
Great facility to get a great workout in. Staff was great! Super experience! I would highly recommend this place.
Amazing facility, and knowledgeable, sincere coaches!! The facility is the largest, most well-equipped CrossFit gym I have ever been to, and the coaches and entire staff are top notch. Would recommend 10/10!
Very cool place
Ive been a member of Crossfit Strong for over a year. Walking into the gym is the best part of my day. They have all the accouterments of a crossfit gym and more. Whether youre a fitness veteran or a beginner looking to get started, the knowledgeable coaches are understanding and supportive of all athletes. The Strong community makes this gym home.
Great climbing, sliding, hanging, stacking, balancing activities for toddlers. My one-year-old LOVES Soar! Theres also a great train table with comfy couches next to it for some more settled play. Soar is always clean, and has lots of picnic benches for an easy transition to a packed lunch. One of our favorite parks!
Absolutely love this gym! Was a bit hesitant going back to a gym with the corona pandemic but they go above and beyond making sure all the equipment is properly cleaned and sanitized. Cant recommend this place enough to anyone looking whose CrossFit gyms may have temporarily or permanently closed.
This gym makes us feel like family - from the owner to the staff - to the other clients. Its a safe space for my children to be encouraged emotionally and physically. Im incredibly grateful!
Great place for kids to burn off energy. The facility has multiple play areas for various ages. Dodge ball, soccer area, climbing, swinging - its all there. Can pay for hour, 2 hours or monthly membership. Good alternative when weather is too hot, cold or wet.
There are not enough words to describe how amazing Strong is. I have been going to this gym for two years, and it has changed my life. The awesome people you meet, the caring coaches, and more importantly, Gale (the rock star owner who makes an effort to still teach classes on a weekly basis and knows every member by name) make Strong more than just a gym — it’s a family. If you’re looking for a community of people who will motivate you to achieve goals you never thought possible than Strong is where you need to go. Hands down! Best. Crossfit. Gym. Ever.
Great family feel
Updated review: This is the best Ninja gym in DFW based on size, changing obstacles, coaches, friendly staff and price. We did a tour of other ninja gyms over the Thanksgiving break and this was made clear to us.Original review below:I am impressed. This appears to be a place that gets it from a marketing perspective. The manager/director memorized my name from an email inquiry and approached me to introduce herself and make us feel welcome. The t-shirts are $15, compared to $20 and $25 at the competitors. T-shirts are free advertising, not just an additional source of revenue.This is a big place. Upon first visit, it seems bigger than Obstacle Warrior Kid and Ninja Nation.I like that the kids have access to challenging obstacles. My son (8 years old) was working on an obstacle thats probably designed for older kids. Obstacle Warrior segregates the more challenging obstacles and doesnt allow him to enter that area.so far, so good
I have recently have been to the level 2 CF class and the Strong Fitness class! Loved both! If youre looking for a fitness routine that can involve multiple aspects of health and wellness this is definitely a great place to go! They have several different programs, and they all compliment each other extremely well! The entire staff is VERY knowledgeable and incredibly personable. 5 stars all around!
BEST GYM I HAVE EVER BEEN APART OF! I DROPPED IN AT CROSSFIT STRONG AND IMMEDIATELY WISHED I LIVED CLOSE ENOUGH TO BE A MEMBER. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR MOTIVATION AND COACHES WHO CARE ABOUT YOUR SUCCESS, STRONG IS THE PLACE TO GO! GALE KNOWS HOW TO DO IT RIGHT! ANYTIME I AM STAYING WITHIN AN HOUR OF THIS GYM, ILL BE IN FOR A WORKOUT!
Ive been at this gym for around 18 months. Every coach is professional and willing to answer your questions. They scale EVERY movement, so if you cant do some of the toughest movements, they have an option for you...and you wont be the only one that scales, believe me!Classes are extremely flexible, posted on the website.If youre traveling, dropping in is extremely easy. I travel and at other gyms it can be kind of awkward, not here just let them know youre dropping in.One time I brought my mother (56 yrs old) to a weekend workout and she loved it!Gale/Kim/April/Matt,Thank you for everything you do.
We had our sons birthday party there and the new ownership and new staff couldnt have been more accommodating and engaging with a bunch of over-sugared 6 year olds. Fantastic customer service. Would definitely go back and highly recommend
I have a 4 year old little girl and this is her favorite place to play. We have had her birthday party the last two years here and it has been fantastic. The staff here is very helpful and they help her and guide her through the obstacles. This is a fantastic place for kids and adults to enjoy themselves.
Great place and my daughter loves it. She never wants to leave. The staff is fun and helpful. In our 2 visits, they kept her engaged and helped her safely do obstacles and try new things. Its better than any obstacle gym weve visited in the area.
I love getting to come into STRONG CrossFit everyday and get better along with some great people, workout with incredible coaches. This place is gem. Definitely recommend.
Tons of fun to be had here, my kids 4-10 all enjoyed them selves. Comfy seating for parents to watch/chill. There is a toddler area with train table and blocks/bricks. Theres usually a Groupon to this place, bring trampoline park style grippy socks, as of Jan 2020 their food center wasnt up and running.
Great place to take kids. There is staff there to help them with the obstacles. For adults there is a great CrossFit gym there.
Dropped in from Florida... This place is fantastic! Great people and great coaching! I have been doing CF for years going to different boxes and I can tell an owner’s passion for good form and good workouts! Tks
Absolutely!! Hands down the best CF Box in Dallas. The coaches and the ownership are by far at the top of their class. Plus the owner is a Christ Follower. They even have ACTS 20:24 sewn in on the side of their awesome hats.Randy Valdez
I have been a member of Strong for a few years now and I there are not enough wonderful things I can say about them. Their coaching staff is wonderful, I learn something new every class, and as a student I feel like a person and not just a number. I love the community that Gayle and his wonderful team have created.
If you are in Dallas for a short or long period of time and you need a place to train, this is the place to go. For strength training, olympic weightlifting, or crossfit, completely worth it. The staff were always helpful and awesome. Check this place out!
As a person who is on the road 200 days out of the year, Strong Fitness is my home away from home. I travel frequently for work and have dropped into gyms all over the world but Strong Fitness is hands down the best gym I have ever visited. Not only is their programming challenging, but the community truly feels like a family and is quick to take in newcomers. For drop-ins, you dont stay a stranger for very long and the staff is flexible if you want to add some extra programming in after class. I could write another post on the quality of the facility but I am continually impressed with both the amount and quality of equipment and how clean the gym is kept. Strong Fitness sets a high standard across the board and I am honored to be part of such an amazing community!
Friendly and supportive environment. No matter what your fitness level is there is a place for you. Lots of class times available, coaches are knowledgeable and very approachable. You will always be challenged and motivated to keep coming.
I dropped into Strong Fitness while on a trip to Dallas for work. I havent done crossfit in the past and just came to use the equipment and get a good workout in.Ive got to say... wow! Facility is amazing. The owner and staff were extremely friendly. If i lived in the area, I would definitely make this my main gym.
I frequently travel for work and make it a point to drop-in to a local box when Im in the area. This past week, I was in Dallas and had the opportunity to experience the program at Strong.Ive been to a dozen boxes all over the country and the coaching and program design were the best Ive experienced. The warm-up, skill development and cool down were all tightly integrated with the WOD and the coaching was engaging and clearly illustrated the movements, cues and scaling necessary to get the desired stimulus from the workout.A lot of great things are going on at Strong and if youre ever in the area, I highly recommend dropping by. You wont regret it.
Enjoy bringing my grandchildren here. I wish coaches would work with kids during open play. The more they learn, the more they will want to come!
I absolutely love working out here! Every one you meet is friendly and all the coaches are always willing to help. It was the best decision I ever made.
Ive joined several other gyms in the past, but Strong Fitness is the only one that made me actually look forward to working out, and kept me coming back, day after day, year after year. Gale (owner) is great, coaches are great, equipment is great, camaraderie is great.
I love CrossFit Strong! The coaches are extremely attentive and care so much about challenging you while keeping you safe and injury free. The facility and community are amazing and make you look forward to working out every day!
Best experience for a newcomer! Amazing coaches & welcoming community! Highly recommend.
Fun for all ages. Went there for a birthday party, have been always a hit. My daughter loves it and dads love it too. Definitely a good place for a party or for an evening to wear down the kids.
Spotlessly clean, fun and attentive staff. Wonderfully fun place for kids with parents having full access. All indoor skateboarding, soccer, and gym activities. Such fun!
Wish it were less pricey on dues, but that said I enjoy working out here. Coaches and WODs are great. High intensity workout for sure but they make it fun. Members are good people too
LOVED this gym. I dropped in a few times and fell in love. The people are so nice, classes are manageable size and the WODs are awesome. This is my kind of gym and it fits my fitness journey for the future.
Fantastic people, and gym with lots of quality equipment. If you want a big area to run around in and use free weights (barbells, kettlebells etc) come to this place. They even have this awesome Oly Weightlifting room, air conditioned, eleiko barbells, so I was stoked when they let me train here for a day pass of only 15 bucks. Matt behind the counter very friendly and helpful.
The best coaches and crew that you will find!! I’ve been coming here for over a year, and it’s definitely my favorite part of the day :))
Great group of athletes and coaches. Very friendly and supportive community and many athletes at all different levels.Ive visited about a dozen different boxes and this one definitely has the best facility and culture.
The worst place I ever seen before!!!! The Custmor service is awful, they dont have any skills of customer handling. I asked to check in my daughter who came for her friends birthday, they didnt look for her with her last name and told me they dont see her on the list. I have to wait for them to finish with other guests, signed the waiver again and waited for 15mins, then the other girl came and looked her last name and she was there. So annoying, killing everyones time! I almost changed my mind and left the birthday!!! I hope people read this and avoid this place to invite their friends to attend a birthday party!spend playing with her
Training place for ninja warrior esp for kids. Kids can be kept engaged for about 1-2 hours. Seems good place to have birthday parties for kids age above 7.
Dropped in from out of town, Great gym and people. Coach Kim was high energy, knowledgeable and fun.
Strong has the best coaches, programs and equipment in DFW. When I moved from Frisco to Dallas, Strong was the first gym I tested out. Lets just say I was hooked after the first workout. I love how there are so many different times available to workout.
Best CrossFit gym in the North Dallas area! Tons of class times and great people! Fun workouts and good facility with lots of equipment and nice restrooms.
Luke: After my tour with the Professional Jump Ropers Association of America I was really lost on what to do. My calves were ripped, but the rest of my body left a lot to be desired. I tried many different workouts (bowling, cup stacking, ping pong, etc) and nothing seemed to work. Finally, I decided to give Strong Fitness & Performance a try and it has lead to massive improvements. I even met my wife here!Melissa: Seriously the best gym in all of Dallas. Top notch coaches, fits everyone’s schedule, community is phenomenal, equipment is awesome, limitless options in regarding fitness and capacity. You’re silly if you don’t join now!
Definitely my home away from home. Did the 24 Hour thing for a year or two before finding Crossfit Strong and havent looked back. Welcoming, community atmosphere is incredibly inviting and also great for accountability on making workouts instead of skipping. The workouts are always varied so you never know what youll be doing - much better than getting caught in a boring routine. Cant say enough great things about this place.
Fun place. Kids love it. Clean facility. Very Spacious. Good spot for parties. My daughters are usually highly engaged there. Skatepark, obstacle courses for various ages, soccer, and great cardio for the adults (if you can keep up).
I love this gym the people that come here to work out are so nice and loving great vibes and wonderful energy they really get you pumped up me and my girlfriends always come here.
Was in town from Shreveport, La. and stopped by for a drop in. This was on a Saturday and they were doing a HERO WOD. I really enjoy doing these! The athletes and coaches were very friendly and made me feel comfortable. I plan on visiting this BOX again whenever I am in the Dallas area.
Amazing place! So fun for kids of all ages. Clean facility, staff is friendly and interacts with kids. We love SOAR!
This is my sons favorite place to go! Friendly staff who work with you to become better on obstacles. Challenging courses for children and teens.
My daughters had so much fun playing! The staff was super helpful too!
I think most people have heard about CrossFit at this point. One of my friends had been telling me that she was really into Strong, and convinced me to come try one of the free Saturday workouts. Ill admit, I was pretty skeptical of the whole CrossFit community. I read and heard about the type of culture that CrossFit is said to promote, and that the workouts were hazardous to your health since that same culture apparently only cared about completing the workout, not so much about form. But, I figured Id give it a shot, seeing as it was a different kind of workout than I was used to and I wanted to mix it up some.Now, full disclosure... I grew up playing sports and have always been a decent (at best) athlete. Before the workout I had been going to the gym maybe once a week or so mostly out of laziness, but also because I didnt really feel the need to. I didnt look like I was in bad shape or anything, so I figured Id be fine with what I was doing.Well, that Saturday I got my butt handed to me. As I struggled through the workout, one of the coaches was rooting me on, which was nice... But thats kind of part of their job, you know? The really interesting thing to me was that some of the other people who were working out right next to me started cheering me on as well... People I had never met before in my life. Some of the people that had already finished stood next to me and did additional reps to help me continue through the workout just to finish. I finished last... but I finished and gave it my all, which is the most important thing at Strong.Ever since then Ive been coming (fairly) consistently. I dont think Im ever going to be a super-athlete that goes to the CrossFit Games that you see on TV, and thats just fine with me. My goal has always been to get into the best shape that I can and to continually improve, and the coaches at Strong have really helped me to do that. Im not able to do every workout as prescribed, but all the coaches and other members have no problem with that. In fact, theyll recommend it as needed to ensure that youre performing the movements correctly and working hard.Someone else also wrote how the members feel like a family. Ill be honest... I didnt feel that way for a while. Sure I met a few people I liked, but thats really about it. Im not great with names, and sometimes I would be a bit intimidated by the people that have the crazy bodies and finish before anyone else. But as I kept coming more frequently, I got to know people on a more personal level, and they got to know me. After a while you start to relish the idea of coming to workout not just for the personal benefit, but for the camaraderie you have with those around you as well. I got hurt a few months ago and have been out of commission recovering from a soccer injury, but the coaches and my friends from Strong monitored my recovery, provided suggestions and were extremely understanding throughout the whole process. Im now officially cleared for high-impact training, and my first few classes consisted of a lot of YOURE FINALLY BACK as opposed to What happened to you?I think thats the biggest difference between Strong and anything else Ive tried. Sure, theres competitive people here, but at the end of the day I think its just like Blackjack. Everyone is just trying to beat the workout (or dealer, as it were) and is on the same team. Sure, youll have some people that get the 21, but we all cheer when the dealer busts and everyone wins. Thats something I havent had since I was in organized sports in high school and college. Id really recommend just trying out a class to see for yourself, just so you can see what Ive been writing about firsthand as opposed to just reading about the CrossFit culture online.
Amazing coaches, facility, and community. One of the best crossfit gyms in existence. It doesnt get better than this. If you are debating which gym to go to or whether to start crossfit, consider this your sign and sign up now! Its hard to put into words how great this place is. Truly one of the best gyms out there. I feel very lucky to be a part of this gym!
I joined Crossfit Strong a little over a year ago and it is the best think I have ever done. For years after college I would yo-yo with my working out attendance at LA Fitness. Id go for a few months then stop for a few and so on. I moved to the addison area for my job and decided to give Strong a shot. I was sold the first day I went. Everyone was so nice and welcoming.A have consistently attended with a few days off here and there for over a year. I am hooked. All the members work so hard, are encouraging and the family atmosphere reminds me of being on my college teams. People take the time to get to know you and most importantly about you. I love that I found such a great place and have accomplished things that I never thought I could accomplish like doing pull ups. Come try it I promise youll get hooked! :)
This place is awesome. Staff is really nice and helpful. You got a lot for your money.
I LOVE this gym! LOVE their HIIT classes in particular...never had a chance to try the crossfit but heard great things. The instructors, the other members, and the workouts - wouldnt change a thing. I had to leave unfortunately because of my busy schedule doesnt allow enough time to commute - I used to go 30 minutes out of the way to get here. Canceling was seamless and Im sure if the opportunity presents itself in the future, I will be back. If not as a member, definitely through ClassPass - which is how I originally found them.
Taken the HIIT classes at this studio a couple times now with Karla and they are great. The treadmills are a little different, but it doesnt take too long to get the hang of them.
I started going to strong 8 months ago and it has definitely changed my life forever. My appearance, habits and health have improved by 70%. I call it my happy place. Also the coaches are the best, fun energetic and friendly. I currently attend crossfit and fitness class at this place, and I recommend both classes. Every member recives the best attention in this place by the coaches and the owner.
One of my favorite crossfit boxes that I’ve visited all over the US. It’s like a home box away from home. This is where I chose to get my first crossfit level 1 and then my renewal years later. The owner is a very authentic and knowledgeable, humble man. And coming back for my renewal was just as incredible as the first time there.
Great coaches, clean space, good energy! Definitely make the stop!
Dropped in here, amazing facility and community. Highly highly recommend
I. Love. This. Place. If you are looking to start crossfit or change boxes, come here! The coaches, facility, and people are amazing! You wont regret it. SFPC is the best of the best!
Great box. Friendly group. Easy parking. I travel a lot for work and when I had the chance to stop by Crossfit Strong they made me feel right at home. It was like I was at my home box. Kudos to Crossfit Strong for a good community, great workout space, and friendly coaching staff.
A lot of fun for kids! Tons of nice obstacles and very clean since you can’t wear shoes. Biggest complaint is the staffing is horrible. Very understaffed, which is very dangerous. The staff that is actually there are busy playing on the obstacles or soccer, rather than watching the kids. One time I saw a boy who looked like he was about 10 climb across the TOP of an obstacle. If he would have fallen it would have been fatal. I ran around looking for staff and couldn’t find a single person.
Highly recommend this box!! Love it here! Love the coaches and met some really awesome people
Great place for Ninja Warrior style training and fun. They have areas for all ages 2 and up. They also have a small skate park and Dodgeball court.
Disappointing experience. Once 5 stars...now only 3. The customer service is lacking. Staff is too busy riding their scooters or playing soccer to assist customers. Mgmt needs to rein in the staff. Facility itself is very nice and clean.
Great place for my 10 year olds boys! Tons of stuff to do.
Loved what you guys provided while I dropped in. I loved the warm up session before the WOD. I think you should post that along with the WOD on the site.Your staff was very good and also pushed you when you needed it... Great job.Members were good and embraced an outsider. Awesome job.Only question is what does B&R stand for on your website? Everything else is explained or provided an explanation besides that. Thank you for your services while I was in town for business.
Visited SOAR for a bday party. Sweetly surprised by the huge space. Facility is clean and safe. Lots of bounce pits and obstacle courses for kids. Front desk staff was very friendly with our enquiries. I definitely would recommend this to other parents. I would seriously consider hosting bday party there myself.
Great box! Everything from the owners and coached to programming to facilities are top notch! #strongfitnessstaycation
Started CrossFit in Houston and recently moved back to Dallas, everyone who has been a member of a CrossFit box knows how important it is to find the right box. After researching several boxes I settled on Strong Crossfit and could not be any happier. Facility is big enough to be comfortable with very knowledgeable coaches. Very friendly staff and clientele who made me feel very comfortable from the moment I set foot through the door. Something very unique to Strong is the rotate coaches giving you a unique voice and approach daily which I personally enjoy! Gaie Yocom the owner is one of the most humble and approachable coaches I have ever met, willing to take time out of day to help you any way possible. Shout out to coach Kim, Matt, Jeff, and April who seem to be able to push me on a daily basis no matter how early in the day it may be! Great gym, great people stop by and you will love it as much as I do!
Awesome place to work out. great coaches and good community of people
