😠 Fairly sure I have never posted lower than a 4 on this or any other platforms. The owner put a cone in front of me as I was trying to park. Apparantly he does not want to use his alloted underground parking and has decided he owns the street parking too. I guess his Benz likes to be out front.... People often mention Daniel, Driftwood, recommend, fantastic, fitness, trainers, workouts, good, Catrina,

    I left my long time box in search of a CrossFit box that was excellent but that both my teenaged son and I could afford. I was sad to leave friends at our old location but Driftwood was immediately welcoming and super friendly. The coaching is stellar, and the on site physio availability is a fantastic bonus. Grateful to have this gym and it's fantastic owners in our hood.

Happy to take down the review once you change your behavior.

    Joining this gym is the best thing that I've done for my fitness in the last ten years - I can't recommend it enough. The trainers know you by name and support you in achieving your fitness goals, including helping to scale or change workouts for you on the fly if you can't do the exercises. I know that every class I attend is going to be a workout that's just right for my current fitness level and that I'll be encouraged to challenge myself. They also have a fantastic group of physios, massage therapists, and the like that can help you resolve and recover from injuries. Having the physios in the gym is super helpful too because you can get targeted exercises and guidance for how to do or scale (down difficulty) class movements. Your physio can talk with the trainers about your injury so that the trainers know how to adjust the workouts. The community among the class attendees is very welcoming to new folks and very encouraging. There's not a culture of machismo or mocking people who can't do the workout - everyone is there to get a little better every day and encourage one another on the way. I'm rebuilding strength after a significant series of injuries and the community and trainers have been nothing but encouraging as I build up from small weights and careful movements. There's also two friendly huskies who hang around the gym and add to the good vibes. Overall I love coming here. Cat and Daniel are fantastic, they've build a fantastic team and culture, and they've made the biggest positive in my fitness in the last decade. This place is awesome and you should join!

    Catrina is an incredible Physiotherapist. She cares about her patients and truly wants to get them back moving and get their body feeling good. Cheryl is clearly knowledgeable about the human body and how things work together - the exercises she has gotten me to do have improved my range of motion and I look forward to more progression. Lastly, I love the vibe at Driftwood - everyone is always in a good mood and the space is clean and inviting. Daniel and Catrina have worked hard to make this a great space and it shows.

    Loved attending the morning workouts at 5am - Daniel was a great coach! Super convenient to have Catrina offering physio so early in the mornings too. Would have definitely stayed if I didn't have some issues due to having babies. Highly recommend if you want to get a good pump on.

    This gym is amazing! It feels like I’ve come home, very welcoming! The coaches are approachable, knowledgeable and encouraging. The workouts are challenging but rewarding. I’d give this gym 10 out of 5, if it was possible. Friendly, fun, and all around fantastic! I’d highly recommend this gym to anyone and everyone!

    This is not your typical “gym”. Every time I leave this place I feel as if I’m getting a second chance at life. The workouts are KILLER. With that being said, as a mom of 4 (in my early 40’s 😉) - I’m in the best shape of my life. I’ve been a member of the Driftwood family for just over 4 years. I say “family” because that’s what this community has become; from the trainers to members, they’re fun, friendly and most of all so supportive. Even with working out through several injuries, the trainers have worked with me at tailoring the WOD (workout of the day) to suit my needs. All workouts can be modified to your level. I’m so proud of Daniel and Catrina and everything they’ve accomplished, I highly recommend giving this place a try.

    I’ve been seeing Kat and Nichita here weekly for an injury I sustained in a car accident I had early this year. Both are extremely friendly and professional. Would absolutely recommend.

  • 5/5 owen c. 1 year ago on Google • 17 reviews
    My review is long over due. Though I only stayed here for a month last year due to my work sites changing constantly, I can’t think of a more welcoming gym. Daniel and Cat are the best, honestly made me feel at home on day one. They have a fantastic weight lifting programming with Andy, and a great nutritionist in Sam. It is truly a one stop shop for everything fitness related.

    I'd recommend this gym to anyone who is curious. I was working out with Daniel for about 5 months and I got into the best shape of my life. Plus it worked great that he was accommodating of my hectic schedule. When I got in an accident and needed rehab, I quickly contacted Daniel and he put me in touch with Kevin. Kevin was a breath of fresh air in a time that was mentally and physically difficult for me. We worked on rehabbing my chest and right arm which which was affected from my accident. Fast forward 3 months and I am back healthier and stronger, even lifting past my previous max and excited to continue on my fitness journey. If you're looking for individuals who care about your overall health and are willing to work with you to be the best version of yourself I suggest you go to Driftwood.

    I cannot say enough good things about the Physiotherapist Kevin Hua at Driftwood Athletics. He is a top notch physiotherapist and does excellent work. He was able to assess my injury very quickly and provide a treatment plan that remedied the issue and allowed me to get back to training in record time. I would highly recommend seeing Kevin for any sport related injury you may have.

    The trainers and practitioners at Driftwood have been amazing for me with crossfit workouts and physiotherapy. Looking forward to many more years to come of staying healthy!

    Driftwood Athletics is the best gym I have ever been to and I have been to a lot of training studios. Catrina and Daniel care about every member and go above and beyond to deliver an amazing experience. The clientele is very friendly and come there to work hard. I would recommend Driftwood to anyone for personal training, crossfit, physio or any one of their many services. Amazing job Cat and Daniel!

😠 I can’t say I would attend this gym, and am currently looking for a new one. I’ve been going to gyms all my life with no complaints, but this location is wildly incompetent. 1.

😠 If you are interested in basic gym membership, it's cheap, fine. They are not upfront about their annual upkeep fee (~$60). While it is on the Terms and Conditions which you need to read and sign off on carefully (which I did) , it is dishonest of them that they do not explain this to you. And this...
