I go to CrossFit at EAG which is inside Evolution and I love it. I love how nice everyone is and all of the different workout options!
This is the best facility, coaching staff, variety of classes, and value you will find in Maine. My experience at Evolution with BJJ/no-gi has been great, and the instructors all bring a unique perspective to the sport from self-defense to competition training. My kids have also benefited from their excellent coaching over the years in kids MMA, wrestling, and speed & agility.
This is a really nice gym. It's big, there's plenty of racks if you're a power lifter. Upstairs has machines, treadmills, etc. They've got a spin room, a multipurpose room, enough turf to do some small exercises, and a huge matt for fighting. Staff is very nice. There's a small PT clinic located in the building that is pretty active. Lots of classes for CrossFit or different martial arts, they've even got a cage in the back. This place is pretty quiet in the mornings and it's easy to spread out and get your workout in. Always super clean and the equipment is nicely organized.
I’ve been working out and taking classes at this gym for roughly 2.5 months, great community, friendly, and absolutely amazing both technical based as well as functionality. Boxing classes are the highlight of my week and as I’ve decided to add more classes to do (submission, takedown, bjj, and hopefully kickboxing in the future) I believe they’ll also become highlights of my week(s). I’ve definitely found a great place to both work out at and simply be at. I recommend this gym highly amongst my friends. Amazing gym.
I’m editing my review because signing up for a membership at this place is literally the best thing I’ve ever done for myself. I feel great every day. Classes are varied and instructional styles between instructors are very different. Attendance varies and I must have hit the gym the first day when everybody happened to be there. Upon getting to know people everybody is very welcoming and kind. Boxing class is the highlight of my week and I always look forward to it. I loved the content of the beginner boxing class. It was intense and I felt like I was able to adapt it to my level. Unfortunately, both beginner classes I went to had about ten experienced boxers/fighters, and maybe three or four beginners. It was very intimidating and uncomfortable, and instruction was stretched thin to allow time for experienced fighters. Maybe offer more intermediate instruction so beginners can have their own space in the gym.
Hi Ruthie, Thank you for the feedback! We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the beginner boxing class content! We are sorry to hear that you were uncomfortable and intimidating during class. The struggle with separating the two is having enough attendees to fill both classes. But we can definitely look into adding a more advanced class. We will also talk with our trainers to make sure that there is enough time during drills and the content is beginner friendly!
