I LOVE IT HERE! Been coming for 3+ years and I have had an exceptional experience at this Shamba Vibe. The coaches were knowledgeable, supportive, and created a motivating atmosphere. The diverse workouts kept things challenging and engaging. The facilities are well-maintained, and the sense of community among members added to the overall positive environment. I highly recommend this gym for anyone looking to achieve their fitness goals in a welcoming and effective setting.

You want to prepare for a Hyrox. You're willing to work, so why hire a coach? Most gyms offer just access to equipment; there is no way to learn how to move safely, there is no comprehensive training plan, and there is no accountability. Over time, this lack of progress creates frustration. So, hire a coach! Here, you'll get access to classes with elite-level coaching that makes sure you're preparing safely and efficiently, a community of people with similar goals, a way to track your progress, and a real plan so you don't have to figure it out on your own!

I hosted a Dad Meet Up event over the weekend. We originally were supposed to meet at a park but the forecast called for rain. The owner Jacob offered up his gym for us last minute hosting 60 dads and their kids. The space was large, clean, and safe for the kids. The gym is amazing and I appreciate them letting us host our event there

Been a member for a few years now and this is one of the best boxes ever - owner Jake leads it to have a constant positive culture, and all the coaches are fantastic. There’s young people and people much more mature in their cross fit years, experts to beginners. Everyone makes you feel welcome and part of the family. Great place to learn or take your CrossFit to the next level. Thanks coaches and Vibe!!!

This is a great gym and a great community. The coaches are experts and will work with you based on your goals. They take pride and enjoy when the athletes benefit from their coaching. Also, the gym and its high-quality equipment are kept very clean and organized. I can’t say that about most gyms. The shamba vibe community is great and very welcoming. About once a week we all go out as a gym (coaches and athletes) and get a meal together after a workout. I’ve been there since Jake took ownership nearly 2 years ago and have only good things to say. Additionally, there are wrestling and jiu jitsu classes and open mats for all age groups. The mats are high quality and kept very clean. The Shamba Wrestling Academy has various alumni wrestling at the collegiate level now. Top quality program.
