CrossFit Ancoats

Not everything we do is super serious - the last slide is my favourite 🤣
On the contrary we spend a lot of time making training fun!

This drill trained change of direction, reactions and acceleration.
Of course it was also full of screams and hysterical laughter.

Come along and have while training with friends.

We’re just 4 mins from Manchester Piccadilly station and have showers on site. Link for our 7-day unlimited trial in our bio

One question comes up more than anything else when people reach out to CrossFit Ancoats: is CrossFit actually suitable for beginners?

The short answer is yes — and it's one I genuinely believe, not just because I want you to sign up.

Here's the thing most people don't know. CrossFit the sport — the stuff you see on TV with elite athletes doing extraordinary things — and CrossFit the methodology are two different animals. The methodology was created to build fit, healthy human beings. Ordinary people. That's the whole point.

At CrossFit Ancoats, every session is coached. There's a qualified professional in the room for every class, helping you scale movements to your level, checking your form, making sure you're working hard without working unsafely. It ends up feeling like having a personal trainer in a group environment — and it costs a fraction of the price.

For complete beginners we run a Foundations course — three sessions in a small group (sometimes one-to-one) covering the fundamental movements before you set foot in your first group class. You'll know what to expect. There are no surprises.

And here's what we consistently hear from new members after their first session: "I didn't expect to feel so welcome."

That's CrossFit Ancoats.

If you've been thinking about it, our 7-day trial is £30. We're at 102 North Western Street in Ancoats — four minutes from Manchester Piccadilly.

People assume CrossFit is for elite athletes.

But originally it was never designed as a sport.
The CrossFit games is the extreme end of what the methodology produces.

Like the Olympics being the extreme of running or swimming.

The methodology itself was built to develop genuinely fit, healthy human beings. That’s it. That’s the whole point.

We follow the methodology. We coach everyone and everything each session. It’s the best place for Beginners to start.
