The best of the best!

Love this place! The facility is awesome, high ceilings, a lot of floor space and friendly environment. For someone who hasn't done crossfit before this club ("box") offers a no sweat trial which accesses your ability and gives a little one on one coaching. It's a great way to kind of see what it's all about. Also once a month or once every two months is a bring your friend free day to try out the sport. There are also boot camps offered on Sunday at 8am. All in all it offers a wide variety of activities and caters to a wide range of age groups (8-65+)

This is the best decision I made joining Durst Croosfit and the right one for a change. I have been to a lot of gyms but this is the best experience. Jacqui and Drew Hamer they are two caring owners who care about their clientele. You are one on one with everyone you feel, like a family member. My first time out, people I didn't know from Adam, came up to me said hello, and smiled. When I had no clue what I was doing, someone helped and I tell you, I need a lot of help. Age is not a number it about the person and that's how everyone made me feel. Great experience looking forward this year and many more.............

Great Spot! Visiting in from out of town and this is without a doubt my new CrossFit gym when visiting family. Definitely recommend this spot - wish it was located in Toronto - it would be my new go-to.

Very welcoming, the coaches work with your fitness level and any restrictions you may have to ensure you have a safe, but killer workout!

I've never worked with a nutritionist before. Jacqui has created a group program that works for everyone, with one-on-one guidance whenever you need it. I'm in the final week of a 10-week group program. Jacqui has provided me with a custom plan, that is modified and improved upon on a weekly basis based on my unique needs. I am free to participate as much or as little as I want with the group. I have lost more weight in the past 10 weeks than I have in any other diet/exercise program that I have attempted. More importantly, Jacqui has helped me understand why my weight loss is different than others, and has helped me develop the confidence to stop sabotaging my progress. There are no food restrictions, and you are encouraged to create a lifestyle for yourself that is realistic both from the perspective of what you are consuming (no crazy recipes, or all organic, etc.) and how much you are spending (no gimmicks, or expensive alternatives). I highly recommend working with Jacqui. She is down to earth, approachable, and kind :-)

Loved this place from the minute I walked in! Jacqui and Drew have created a community where you feel welcomed, accepted, challenged, and encouraged to grow and be the best version of you! There is a wide variety of unique and excellent quality equipment, and they are always looking for ways to improve the experience for their members, keeping things fresh and exciting! The coaching is excellent - I have learned a lot and find their cues and progressions super helpful. Great atmosphere, great team, great experience every time I go in!

Best box with the best coaches! Scale-able workouts for everyone and a great range of class times to accommodate almost any schedule. Super friendly community atmosphere, just an awesome place to get in shape!

Durst is not just a place where one comes and does a workout; rather, it’s a true community where people feel unconditionally supported, included, and that they belong. All of the coaches have such a passion and enthusiasm for helping individuals work toward their unique fitness and self-improvement goals. I learn new things every time I come and I feel like I’m making progress. The camaraderie among the members is so refreshing and fun.

CrossFit Durst is great! Drew and Jacqui are fabulous coaches and the community at Durst is very inclusive and encouraging. Everybody is welcome at Durst and once you try it you will realize you are capable of much more than you ever thought!

Best 1-2 hours of my day. I always feel better when leaving Durst. The work outs push me to be the best version of me and the community is by far amazing!!

Tara Seewald

I have been a member of Durst for many years now. It is an accepting community with lovely members and leadership. There are not many things I look forward to getting up for at 6:00am! But this place gets me out of bed and full of smiles everyday!

Definitely recommend to anyone thinking about trying crossfit.

I would highly recommend Durst for anyone who is thinking about joining a CrossFit gym or for those who are seasoned vets. It is a very inviting and welcoming community of positive-ness. Everyone just wants you to be the best you can be.

Crossfit Durst is an incredible place to workout. It's more than just a workout, it's an experience. It's more than just a place, it's a family. I highly recommend Durst to anyone who is looking to spice up their exercise routine, and who are looking for a bit more out of their gym. Jacqui and Drew Hamer are wonderful coaches, and they know how to push all the right buttons in order to get you to succeed. People are hitting personal records daily, because at Durst, the coaches know exactly how to pull out the courage in you.

Best gym in Brantford. Great instructors and amazing workouts and the community atmosphere is so amazing and motivating.

Lisa Di

The coaches and members are so welcoming and encouraging! This isn't just for elite athletes - every workout can be tailored to different levels of fitness. No need to be intimidated. The women's bootcamp is a great way to try it out.

I joined the Crossfit community 8 months ago. At that point I couldn't do a sit up, a push up, skip...I struggled with pretty much everything. Over the last 8 months i have worked with the awesome coaches and I am finally able to do most of those things. I still struggle with many things but those are now goals to better myself daily. Each coach offers something different and they all encourage and help you to improve in different ways. I recently did the Durst 360 Nutrition Program. I am just completting my 10 weeks and I am down 6" overall.Jacqui (The owner of Crossfit Durst) supported myself as well as the little group I was apart of every step of the way. We have learned to eat properly and not just cut everything out of out lives. I have improved my relationship with food. Food is not the enemy. It is a tool that can help me improve my overall health. Jacqui has given me the tools to continue on this healthy lifestyle. She tailored everything to me personally and helped me make things happen even with my busy life. She helped me look at non scale victories which I now know is also so important. An amazing program that helped me too much!! 360 Durst Nutrition and Crossfit Durst offer many options to help improve your nutrition and overall health and increase your activity level.

This Crossfit box is a great place that creates motivation to be a better self in so many ways. The owners have created a culture where they themselves and the members support each other in spirit, diet and during work outs. You will be comfortable here and challenged in a great way! Check them out! "Five Stars out of Five"

Christina Hinsperger

Came to Ontario for vacation and found this gem of a place. Highly recommend CrossFit Durst to anyone in the Brantford area. Great atmosphere, knowledgeable coaches, and awesome programming!! Will definitely come back on my next visit!

Karolina Moeser

Motivational, challenging and so much fun. Jacqui and Drew have created a solid program which allows you to see results, feel stronger and feel better than ever before. They also maintain a constant "family" atmosphere by keeping the entire membership working together - pot lucks, new challenges and chances to spend money on great workout gear! Its been almost 3 years and I do not see an end in sight!

Jeanine Ferris

I highly recommend giving CrossFit Durst a try! I have been a member for over a year now and can honestly say I have never been in better shape. Everyday I am getting stronger, and I constantly surprise myself. The community and coaches are awesome! I have never liked a "gym' before. It feels so good to be involved with such an inspirational group of people.
