Reviews of Royal City Community Fitness (Gym)

Brian Munday

Never done Cross fit before. These guys make you feel like part of the family. The workouts are amazing, I am always sore, this is a good time going!!!

Emma Plater

So much fun and such a welcoming community. It’s made “going to the gym” something I look forward to, not something I dread!

Abraham Barrios

Great atmosphere and sense of community. The instructors make it very enjoyable.

Susanna Meteer

Great coaches help you focus on form and mobility before pushing weight, and the athletes are all very welcoming. I have been with RCCF for four months now and have noticed considerable improvements in my mobility. As someone with knee injuries I can recommend RCCF as a box for anyone looking to improve their health as the coaches help to scale workouts for all levels.

As someone who exercises regularly and has visited multiple Crossfit gyms I can truly say Royal City has the best environment of them all. You're immediately part of the 'family' from the second you walk in the door. The coaching is great and the variety of equipment is fantastic!

I tried several different body building gyms around Guelph for years before finding Royal City Crossfit. After being a member for 3+ years now, I haven't looked back. The coaches are professional, the equipment is excellent and every class brings something different to fitness. If you're looking for a challenge that isn't intimidating, this is the place!

Matthew James

A great CrossFit box with lots of different class options both in timing and type of class (i.e CrossFit, Bootcamp and CrossFit Football). Lots of equipment and space that make for great classes.

Royal City Crossfit is the best gym in town. Its a great community to be a part of and has really helped me meet my fitness and nutrition goals. Excellent coaching and lots of class times to choose from. From bootcamp, football training or regular Crossfit, there's something for people of all fitness levels to get into.

Royal city is the best crossfit gym you'll ever go to. The coaches are friendly, skilled, and knowledgable. The members are friendly and welcoming.

I've been training with Royal City CrossFit for several years. Craig & his staff are friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I've done bootcamps & CrossFit classes, and completed a 12-week nutrition challenge with coaching that changed the way I eat. My health & fitness have changed significantly for the better since doing CrossFit regularly; I'm much stronger, have much better endurance, and my quality of life is noticeably better. They're even offering Zoom classes and remote coaching, and have arranged a six week #FitFromHome challenge during COVID-19 restrictions. I would highly recommend checking out Royal City CrossFit!

Hands down the best Crossfit box in the city

Nathan Klages

Royal City CrossFit is a great place to make a true life change or for a quick out of town drop in class. The large location and variety of equipment makes a great experience and the class members are very friendly and welcoming. Great coaching, plenty of parking and there is a good chance there will be a dog to pet as well! I have been to over 25 different CrossFit boxes and this one is at the top!

Pearl and I attend the CrossFit light sessions Tuesday and Thursday mornings. These sessions are geared to seniors who want to maintain good posture, flexibility, strength and balance. All ages are welcome. The sessions are relaxed and friendly.

Fantastic community of people with knowledgeable, fun and energetic coaching. Great facility.

Paige Oberfelds

RCCF changed my perception of group workouts! I've been a member since April (2019) and I've really enjoyed everything RCCF has to offer. Who knew I'd be getting up at 6am on weekdays to lift heavy things! Couldn't recommend them enough.

Royal City Crossfit was my first experience at a crossfit gym. The coaching an environment are fantastic. People are welcoming and you quickly become part of the family. The workouts are always challenging and fun and keep you wanting more. Sad to have left the city but loved my 2 years at Royal City Crossfit!

Jesse Baisley

I was recommended Royal City CrossFit around 2.5 years ago, and after becoming a member here shortly after I haven’t regretted it once! The gym community is amazing, and experienced and qualified coaches make sure that you’re safe and well cared for at all times. Working out in an environment like Royal City makes going to the gym fun, and it’s rewarding to watch yourself and the people around grow as athletes. I would HIGHLY recommend Royal City CrossFit to anyone who is interested!

Owen Willems

Great coaches, amazing atmosphere! If you are looking for a tight knit fit community, this should be your only stop in Guelph :)

Andrea Naismith

Royal City CrossFit is straight up amazing. I had wanted to try CrossFit for a long time but felt so intimidated by the thought of it. Once finally making the choice to jump in, my only regret was not starting sooner. Everyone is so welcoming and the coaches are so encouraging and knowledgeable. Since becoming a member, I have never been more motivated to get to the gym. I actually look forward to each workout (even if it includes burpees or wall balls!). I am so thankful to have found this amazing place and such an incredible community at Royal City CrossFit!

Emily Erison

This gym has been my second home for the past 5+ years. It has variety (workout preferences, times, memberships, and equipment), great coaches, and a community that will support you, no matter where you are in your own journey. You can see your new-found crew at the gym working out or socializing outside of class hours but it all starts at Royal City Crossfit!

My husband and I have found a lot of benefit in joining Royal City CrossFit. Not only with strength training but also the friendship with our fellow crossfit light class participants.

Geoff Roczniak

Friendly staff. Clean facilities. Great work outs. Kudos to the staff and their amazing commitment to health, safety and wellness.

Glenn Hodgson

Royal City CrossFit is an absolute gem in the Guelph fitness scene. If you are looking for high quality coaching an environment filled with supportive, friendly, and non-judgemental members this is the place for you. If you've ever struggled to stick with a workout routine, it won't be a problem anymore. Their workout programming is excellent an caters to athletes at all levels of fitness. There is never a need to feel intimidated by any of the movements - at Royal City CrossFit scaling is not a crime. The staff and members at this gym will inspire you to be a better version of yourself. Do yourself a favour and reach out for a tour/introduction.

Although I only worked with one trainer (Adrian) he was clearly not educated about working with physical illness/injury. He did not listen to my needs nor did he acknowledge the level of fitness I am working at. I am aware that this is strenuous fitness, but there still must be a SAFE progression within each skill set. Rather than listening to my limitations, he chose to berate me ("we have much older members that can do that") and rather than accepting that I did not wish to hurt myself by doing advanced moves he lectured me about "trying". The final nail in the coffin was touching me without asking... cardinal rule fellas, when working with either a male or female client you MUST ASK to place your hands on them. I have worked out in many environments, this one left me with nothing but a dislocated finger and aching knees.. NONE of the good pain to gain feelings. Also, the other members were really haughty. Too bad, it's a great space filled with old school but amazing gear, and it's in a great location.

Daniel Hoang

Fantastic gym and people. I was very intimidated joining a CrossFit gym but Royal City made it easy and fun. The community here is outstanding and welcoming. I recommend this place to all my friends any anyone looking for try CrossFit out.

Bernie Perry

My Royal City CrossFit experience has been fantastic. Over the last 4 years I've grown stronger and feel better than I ever have thanks to the great coaching and encouragement that I have received! Bernie Perry

Mark Steele

Royal City CrossFit is more than a gym to me. The coaches and athletes are an extension of my family. We share stories of our lives outside the gym and celebrate our personal achievements at the gym. I have learned so much about myself and what I am capable of due to Craig and his staff. Thank you Craig!!!

Greg Wand

Fitness was never apart of my daily routine prior to starting at Royal City but I know can't imagine if it wasn't! Strong community support, friendly environment and amazing coaches! My life has improved greatly since I walked in the doors at RCF. It's where I met my wife!

Rebecca Marshall

If you want to get fit and have fun doing it, RCCF is the place to be! I've been a member for a little over a year now and I'm in the process of becoming the fittest I've ever been. The people and the coaches are the best! I just wish I had of joined sooner!

Malcolm Stewart

Royal City Crossfit is an awesome gym to work out at. I have always kept an active lifestyle with work, sports and going to the gym but never realized my potential until I started going to this gym. The coaches, owner and members are all great. They push you while making sure you're doing the movements safely. I would highly recommend trying it out if you're thinking about it.
