100% best friendliest gym I have been to in Lincoln.

If you are looking for an awesome welcoming and positive vibed gym then look no further.

The trainers are professional and encouraging and always offer alternatives if you are injured or unable to complete the RX workout.

Crossfit Eyre has been a positive experience from day one. The workouts are challenging for all fitness levels as there are always options to alter weight or exercises to suit your fitness level. Great warm ups, cool downs and stretches too which is just as important as the workout to me to ensure I avoid injury and recover from each session. Thank you to James, Maeda and team for making my return to regular exercise enjoyable and injury free.

Have been going to this gym since it opened in 2017! You won’t find more supportive trainers who ensure technique comes first. Every workout is unique and always leave satisfied – and puffed out!

I had previously done PTs with James and loved what Crossfit is all about and how much stronger it made me feel but never really commited to a membership. When Crossfit Eyre opened up i decided why not and havent looked back. James and the other members are all very welcoming, supportive and encouraging and i really feel part of a family.

One of the this i LOVE about Crossfit Eyre besides the affordable membership options is the kids play area, if i miss a 6am class i can go after school drop off and my youngest can play in a play area with the other kids and at the same time still see me. At the end of the sessions she loves to get out a try doing her own WOD.

A very relaxed and friendly environment while encouraging you to be the best you can. Highly recommend to anyone eanting a challenge.

I was visiting Port Lincoln and decided to give it a go after hearing so many positives things about crossfit. Everyone in the two classes that I attended was friendly and welcoming.

James was very supportive, encouraging and knowledgeable during the sessions, checking in and reassuring me throughout. I only wish I lived closer to be able to attend daily!

Highly recommend any newbies to crossfit head down to crossfit Eyre!

Big thanks to CrossFit Eyre for letting us train in such an amazing box for the week we were in Port Lincoln. All the trainers and members were welcoming and made us feel at home. The facilities were first class, equipment in great condition and a great open space to get hot and sweaty in! Thanks to the Legends for the high fives and the encouraging words from the trainers. Coaching feedback was on point and programming challenging yet achievable! Loved it!! Will be back!!!
