Have been there today for a drop in. Really friendly people. Laurie was a great coach: Friendly, gave good and precise instructions and ensured the form was excellent.
Rather a smaller place with a strong community. Everybody is supporting each other. So when you want to try CrossFit, check this place out :)

I only started about a month and a half ago, but I've had experience with other boxes before, and this one takes the cake. In this past month, I've tried to meet as many coaches as I could and attended a variety of time slots to get to know the other athletes. Every one of them is good people.
Programming is awesome and challenging.
Coaches are aligned yet offer a variety of coaching styles (all of which I appreciate for different reasons), and injury prevention is shown to be a priority through both programming via thoughtful post-MetCon exercises and the coaches' quick critical thinking for scaling, empathy for knowing how we'll probably want to push ourselves… read full review
Core City Fitness is the ideal Crossfit Gym in Detroit (I've been a member for over 1 year). Inside an old renovated warehouse, there is a community of friendly people, tons of up-to-date equipment, and competent coaching ready to help you achieve your goals. Close to I-94 and I-96, it is easy to get to and find parking. Highly recommend giving them a try!
