If you are still unsure, go do a trial class. You wont be sorry.. Your body might be sorry, in a good way. Very friendly trainers. Well equipped. Would highly recommend.

Love being a member here. The staff are all so knowledgeable and friendly, they really know technique and were ALWAYS professional and positive to me. The gym itself is chill and accommodating, they’d let me do extra workouts after class, and they were flexible with my start and end dates (and when I had to take a break in-between). Online payments were also super easy. Space and equipment themselves are high quality and always clean. Other members were open and I made a number of friends there, and the vibe never felt cult-y. For the foreseeable future I’ll likely be coming back and forth from the States and South Africa, and every time I’m back in town I will definitely be hitting up Motley Crew!

The Crew are incredible.I initially planned to just have a drop-in or two whilst in Cape Town, but enjoyed it so much I spent the week. The facility is immaculate and the coaches are not only professional, but so welcoming.The energy in the class was amazing and made me want to push it during the workout. CJ, Steve, Tyron, Kait, Cass and especially Jess for being so accommodating. It really become home away from home immediately. I will not go to another box in Cape Town as this one was perfect.Also, I was really impressed with the workouts during the week. They were really good all round WODs with no pressure to go full-send or RX, but enough to keep me tip top for an upcoming competition. Honestly, what a fabulous time.

Everyday I know I have something to look forward to when I wake up and this is the fitness sessions at Motley Crew Crossfit.The sessions are a proper sweat fest and I can feel my progression with every workout, pushing my body to get stronger and fitter - before I joined the Crew I thought I was pretty darn fit and strong. How wrong I was.What really gets you over the line and beating personal bests is the gees from the trainers who put a strong focus on making the classes challenging but fun. You can feel that they genuinely care about pushing you to do a little better everytime you go.Give them a go and see a real difference in your fitness journey.

Where everybody knows your name - and if they dont yet, they will soon. Inclusive in every aspect and the Motley Crew put experience of members and visitors at the forefront of every interaction and offering. If youre not training, drop by, grab a coffee and have a chat.

Accidentally drove past Motley in Hudson street & thought I will join for my last month while still in Cape Town. The trainers were so helpful & patient, and I enjoy the fact that you spend almost half the class working on your technique. Huge thanks to all the trainers & sorry I left without saying goodbye, but my travel plans changed last minute. Also thanks to Jess for making the entire application process so easy - and for arranging that 1st introductory class (for free I might add). Will for sure be back if I ever return to SA! Let me know if you perhaps have a studio in Miami ;-)

I have been with Motley Crew for almost a year and have improved so much, my skill techniques and fitness has increased tenfold. Motley Crew CrossFit has Skilled coaches, a good box/gym layout and great atmosphere everytime , the workouts are well balanced and aimed to get you fitter and stronger in no time. Open Mondays to Saturdays.If you want a centrally located crossfit box with a good timetable, quality WOD and knowledgeable coaches. give them a try. You wont be disappointed. 👍🏼

If youre gonna work out might as well have fun doing it! I joined Motley Crew in Feb 2021; this is the most consistent I have ever been with my training. I get bored quickly, so my routine has to have variety, challenge, and spice! Now, I ALWAYS look forward to class, and Im hooked! I feel that a consistent workout routine is a fantastic foundation to tackle anything life throws at you, and Ive never felt better. Thanks team for creating rocking workouts and an amazing atmosphere.

Great crossfit gym for a few drop in sessions in you are in Cape Town. The trainers are awesome and friendly but give the push needed to make the drop in fee worth it. Not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for.

Motley Crew has 2 great sites in Cape Town and my friends and I enjoyed training at both of them. The coaches were incredibly welcoming as well as knowledgeable as it was nice to head back to the UK with some great tips. What was also nice is that after visiting one site, we were already known by the 2nd site and felt at home as soon as we walked in. The range of equipment was vast and of great standard and the environment and other members was more than you could ever ask of a CrossFit box. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Cape Town or living there already and wishing to take up the best sport in fitness!

I had a great experience as a drop in at Motley Crew Hudson and Foundry for a week. At both boxes the areas were super organized, had a great selection of equipment, and I found the WODS to be challenging as well as a good variety of skills. They also have classes all day long, so it’s incredibly easy to fit a workout into any schedule. The coaches were some of the best I’ve come across, and I’ve dropped in at over 20 boxes around the world. Even though they knew I was a drop in they were very helpful at correcting my form and pushing me to my max. Coach Steve especially is very talented at spotting exactly how you need to change your form to be successful. If you need a box to workout at in Cape Town, go here; you won’t be disappointed.

I dropped in while visiting Cape Town for a few days. The experience I had at Motley Crew was fantastic. If you are looking to try CrossFit for the first time, or looking for a new gym, I highly recommend you give them a try! Here are a few highlights of my experience:1) staff was extremely responsive to e-mails ahead of my visit2) facility is one of the cleanest and best organized I have ever attended3) coaches were friendly and knowledgeable; the class was warmed up appropriately for the workout4) other members in the class were diverse in age and ability level, and they were all friendly

What an awesome experience to train here! While small, the box itself has amazing equipment and can handle anything thrown at it. The atmosphere created here is something that just makes you feel like working out and that is all before the class even starts! The instructors have amazing knowledge and insure you can not only work at a level that will work for you, but watch out for your technique and guide you so you are learning as you go. I would definitely recommend this box for training!

Simply a stellar experience, run by a dedicated, friendly, knowledgable, and professional team who will do their utmost to work around your needs and requirements. Motley Crew manages to blend the best elements of CrossFit with a detailed knowledge of applied physiology, which—very importantly—means that you will not only have fun but you will make a sound investment in your health. Whether you are a pro athlete, a semi-professional couch potato like me, or a novice, theres a five star experience to be had in a vibrant space full of positive energy.

Motley Crew is doing everything right. Immediately welcoming coaches and members. You can tell that the community is strong and thriving.

I was stopping in a local hotel and wanted to experience CrossFit In Cape Town ,I found Motley Crew via google and booked on a morning class . When the day arrived,Both coaches and those being coached were all very welcoming and helpful.The WOD was easily scaled to accommodate my current elbow injury and it was great to get get some fun exercise in whilst away on holiday ( the monotony of a hotel gym fills me with dread !).In short if you’re a crossfitter ( any level) and are lucky enough to be in CT go see the the Motley Crew you won’t be disappointed , and don’t forget to buy a T shirt !Richard

I had several workouts at this box and had a great experience. The coaches were attentive and enthusiastic, and the community was welcoming and friendly.Beyond that, the equipment and facilities were all high quality and spotlessly clean. It’s evident that everyone there takes pride in what they do and it shines through in the product and members.It’s always a tossup when dropping in at a new gym... in this case I ended up coming back several times during my visit to Cape Town, and will likely be coming back again the next time I’m in ZA.

I work for an adventure/fitness travel company, and we brought groups to Motley Crew CrossFit several times while we were in Cape Town. When traveling with our company, it is often very difficult to find a knowledgable CrossFit gym that can accommodate a large group, but Motley Crew made it SO easy and enjoyable. Jess was more than willing to make special classes for us, and she accommodated smaller groups into their regular classes on short notice. The programming was excellent, and we received wonderful coaching from CJ, Ty, and Steven. They run a spectacular operation, and I know our company will continue to bring groups there in our travels!

Review №76

Dropped in for two sessions while visiting Cape Town for the first time (really had no excuse, given that the box was literally 1 minute away from my Airbnb) and absolutely loved every exhausting minute of it. The coaches at MC are top notch, the studio is space, clean, and filled with great equipment, and the people that train there are so welcoming and friendly. Oftentimes, Im a bit hesitant to try out other CrossFit boxes because you never know what the culture will be like. Wasnt the case whatsoever with MC. I had a great time, was sore for days, and wish I had spent more time in Cape Town, so I could have squeezed in a few more sessions. Cant wait to come back! Thanks, MC team!
