I was on holiday in Cape Town for six weeks and wanted to maintain my fitness. I was also curious to try cross fit. I searched for gyms near me and found quite a few cross fit gyms in the Somerset West area. What attracted me to My Cross Fit initially was the offer of a free consultancy and a free week. What made me choose the gym was a number of things.
Firstly I really liked the actual gym. It is clean, airy, well equiped and well situated. The facilities (showers, toilets) are great. Secondly the welcome we recieved from Richard during our first trial lesson was fantastic. Not only was he friendly and informative but also encouraging and interested in us and our goals. Thirdly the actual sessions were always different and we were never pushed beyond what was safe for us to do. I really liked the focus on safety and effectiveness of movement as opposed to the macho culture you find in some other gyms.Finally our instructor, Cameron, was always encouraging and helped us stay focused on the task at hand.
All of this made it easy for me to achieve my goal is leaving Cape Town fitter than I was when I arrived.
I highly recommend this gym for anyone who is lucky enough to live in the Somerset West are and to anyone who is on holiday. The staff are great, the facilities are top notch and the fellow cross fitters are friendly and welcoming.
