I recently joined Nela Athletics because of the great reception I received during the my initial visit. Now that I am taking classes the staff and classmates are supportive. Coach Kyle encourages me rather than forcing me to do things that I am not ready for or cant do. Kyle listened to my concerns and needs and provides scale recommendations for the work out. For me joining this local business was just what I was looking for.UPDATE!!! 2+months and going strong. Making better improvements than I had hoped. Other members offer great support. I am very happy to be here

This gym is what I think about when I think of the perfect gym. It started with a location that is near our house. And the trainers were knowledgeable and eager to help and willing to take time with you. They are awesome!

Nothing but LOVE for the Nela community! You will truly feel that the coaching staff cares about you. I am in the best shape and injury free. Hmu and I will brag about this place 24/7!

So much fun!I love this spot.In and out to get work done.

I have been doing CrossFit for a few years and have been to a few different gyms. This one is by far my favorite. Highly recommend checking them out. I have never had a coaching team keep such a close eye on my form. It helped me lift heavier and safer.

Great outdoor workout space, safely distanced and fantastic coaches!

Been a part of this community over 4 years. Great workouts and people.

Just started 3 days ago and already I feel like I made the right decision. Everyone has been super friendly and inviting. Intimidation of crossfit has held me back for years and I have to say this has been the best decision i could have ever made. These is an accountability aspect without the pressure. Also, I never felt pressured to sign up for a membership. In fact I was encouraged to try out a free class to make sure that this would be a good fit for me. I enjoyed the low key non high maintenance vibe that I signed up immediately.

I started out at Nela Athletics looking for an alternative to working out solo at 24 Hour Fitness and the like. As a former college athlete I missed the competitiveness, camaraderie, and intensity that sports provide. Not only did Nela fill those voids, it gave me a sense of community that is hard to come by in a big city. I made friends there that Im certain will be life-long. The coachs are friendly, diligent, and attentive to details. And of course, It got me into great shape! Thank you Nela!!

This box I say is one of the best I have ever been to. Knowledgeable coaches who put their athletes first. Clean well stocked facility. But what really sets this CrossFit box apart, is the amazing community. Friendly, supportive, competitive and grounded. Whats not to love! I recommend this place unequivocally. Try it you just might love it.

Great place with amazing people!

This place was a great start for me 5 years ago! I had no athletic background and was overweight. I did some weights in HS (so long ago), but the best part of this gym are the levels that the work outs are broken down. Starting from L1, L2 , L3 & RX. I started at L1 for sure, but after a few years and having another baby, Im a good L3 trying to get to RX! I love CrossFit because of this place. The coaches are always helpful and motivating. Anybody can do it!

I’ve been a member at Nela Athletics for over 4 years now and I can honestly say it’s the best community I’ve ever been a part of. The coaches and members are so welcoming and you can get a great workout here, no matter your athletic level, from beginner to most advanced. If you’re dropping in from out of town or looking to start something new in your fitness journey, swing by!

This gym has grown so much since it opened a few years ago and keeps getting better. Coaching is top-notch and the gym facility is great. Its nicer than your average box, but the right kind of vibe to get a great workout and not feel pampered and lazy like Equinox. The friends youll make here are fantastic and they are very welcoming. Clean equipment, plenty of weights for all abilities, and easy parking. What else do you want from a neighborhood gym in NE LA? Members are from all athletic backgrounds and abilities...no feeling left out here!

I came in for a drop in and it was a good experience overall. trainer was knowledgeable and everyone friendly which luckily is pretty standard for crossfit. not all gyms have all of the equipment for scaling like lighter bars and balls which they did have and I appreciate. space was clean and comfortable.

I train martial arts, and I wanted to improve my cardio. I started working out with this gym and it has been awesome. Everybody is really nice, and it is a good environment equal part competitive and supportive. Really happy I get the chance to work out here. If you get the chance, do private with Paul. He is a pro!

The community here is amazing! The vibe is welcoming the moment you step in and the coaches are awesome. They assign scaled options to those who arent quite there yet, are beginning or need modifications due to an injury, and the people in class are so supportive! Definitely the community to join!

This place has changed my life for the better! Easily the friendliest fitness place Ive ever visited. Not only is this place my 2nd home, Ive made friends that will last a lifetime. In terms of fitness, the coaches are VERY exacting, and will work with you to achieve positive results, no matter your current level. Dont be afraid to get in there--start wherever you are and work hard!

Ive been a member of Nela Crossfit eagle rock for 6 years all coaches are amazing , everyone are so welcoming to the new people . I had made so many good friends, so many great experiences. i can call this BOX my second home.

Ive been coming to this CrossFit gym for almost five years and I cant imagine not having my coaches and friends around me while working out. Theres honesty and diligence when I come to class, and always help when I need improvement and suffice to get it started. The fact that they offer not only CrossFit, but Bootcamp (Ignite) classes, Olympic weightlifting and stretch and yoga classes is nothing short of amazing. They dont ignore the needs of everything the body needs to be its best. And Im a stubborn honest person. If I dont like something, youll know it. And I like this place very, VERY much.

Amazing community! Instructors and student both!

I’ve been coming to crossfit for a few years now. What once started off with working out and dying with a bunch of strangers turned into working out and dying with people who I know consider extended family. Coming here has become my daily routine. The workouts are intense, but the endorphins after the workout are even greater. I definitely recommend NELA Athletics.

Nela Athletics is an amazing place with an excellent community! Definitely recommend it to anyone looking to increase their fitness and go beyond what you can achieve at a normal gym.

I have been coming to Nela Crossfit for 5 years and it has changed my life. There is such an amazing community and a great selection of classes for however you are feeling. Want more cardio head to Ignite, want to improve your lifting with some cardio try the Crossfit classes or want to just lift weight there are several specific weigh lifting classes such as Oly or Power Hour. There is something for everyone with amazing coaches and fun loving members. Thanks Nela xoxoxo

Ive been going here for three years now. Great coaches, great members, great community. Check it out!

Ive been a member here for years. Its by far one of the best CrossFit, and indeed best fitness communities in Los Angeles, and Ive tried a LOT. The facility is clean and well-maintained, the staff is knowledgable, and the people are incredibly supportive. Proud to be a member of the Nela Athletics community! (Also check out the other location in Atwater Village, near the Glendale train station.)

This review is way over due. Ive been a member of Nela Crossfit for over a year now and I cant even begin to tell you what a great choice it was to join this box. Brand new to Crossfit when I started, I started slow with their Ignite classes which are more cardio based (similar to boot camp type classes) and finally moved up to actual Crossfitclasses after about 6 months. Now I do both, mostly depending on my schedule and the class schedule for the day. Most of their teachers teach both types of classes and all of them are awesome teachers! Not going to name favorites--they know who they are. I feel so much better both physically and mentally since starting these classes. Im one of the older members at 54, but you shouldnt let that discourage you if youre on the older side like myself--start slow and work your way into it. NOBODY judges you here and everyone is super supportive from the owner Paul, to all the teachers and the other box members.

Great coaching ! Awesome supportive community !

Great coaches great people

Get fit ... get cross fit

Awesome
