CrossFit PAW is an amazing place, it’s more than a gym it is a community. All the coaches there are extremely knowledgeable and fun to be around. They have helped me with my nutrition as well as pushing me to do my physical best while listening to my body. Crossfit PAW has a great atmosphere with convenient class times and supportive members. Additionally one of the coaches (Ben) has recently offered up his time to instruct a woman self defense course using his formal jiu-​jitsu training. (this is an awesome class as well) CrossFit PAW has so much to offer and is worth the investment in yourself.

I really like this place.
Oh Pawfit. You’ll probably walk in, look around, think «too small», and bolt. Bad move.
They’ve done a great job using the space. Getting 20 people working out can sometimes be a bit of a task, but it works, and I’ve never once noticed the people around me or bumped int anyone while pushing weight.
The trainers are all top notch. They know what they’re doing, and have a pretty lengthy internship program for new trainers, minimizing the «3 day cert» types that have never learned a thing about physiology in their lives. What’s more? They’re all fantastic people. seriously. hell, even the people working out around you are awesome.
Bonus? They’ve got a leaderboard of max lifts. If you’re into pushing more and more weight, it’s a nice motivator, and while I’ve seen something like it a few places, I think It’s worth noting.
From time to time, they run nutrition challenges, and while I’m not a Paleo believer, the people that jumped on the bandwagon showed noticeable results, and wound up feeling better about themselves. mission accomplished eh? I could just never fathom switching out beans in favor of bacon as a health food *shrug*.
Ohh, there’s also a little kids area. While I’ve never put my daughter into the pen, I likely would, once she’s old enough to say, do anything other than drool.
In full disclosure, I just cancelled my membership. Some people really enjoy having the same trainer every time they workout. I don’t. they’ve got one standard trainer at the 5am class. While she’s fantastic, I like a bit of variety, and I don’t have time throughout the week to hit different classes. This is of course a personal preference, and in no way reflects how I feel about the kind of experience you’ll get here. After I’ve been away for a while, I’ll likely come back.

I have been going to Paw Fitness for about 8 months. I had been a dedicated couch potato until then. Since that time I have managed to lose about three pants sizes and lose about 35 pounds. The staff is friendly, helpful and extremely knowledgable. Not only will you work out better but you will eat better too. I feel better now than I did ten years ago. This gym is suitable for every body. I would recommend this CrossFit gym to anyone willing to work at fitness.

I love heading to PAW as much as I can and I always leave with a smile on my face! The coaches are knowledgable and the group feels like one big family. Come checkout a free class!

I cannot say enough good things about CrossFit PAW and the staff there. I started as an absolute newbie with no clue about CrossFit or weightlifting– and have now been there 6+ months! The coaches are all incredibly smart and involved– they can help scale the workouts to any level and always ensure that we get the attention we need to get form and skills down and avoid common injuries, while motivating you to work your hardest.
CrossFit PAW workouts are intense, fun, tough, and always varying– I’ve never been bored. I’ve loved getting stronger (and smarter about fitness) and always feel like I’m lacking when I miss a class. The energy, motivation, and encouragement here keep everyone coming back, no matter what your skill, strength, or age level is.
You won’t find a better team of coaches or a more supportive community to workout with anywhere in Portland– worth every penny.

CrossFit PAW was just what I needed to take my work-​outs to the next level. I had been a memeber of 24 hr fitness for 10+ years and honestly enjoyed their classes about 3 times a week. 24 lacked the intensity, motivation, variety, education, and support. I now get all these things from CrossFit PAW and am seeing great results in my physical fitness. The coaches are always there to motivate me and help me get to the next level. It is worth every penny as it is an investment in my physical health!

CrossFit P.A.W. has helped me to significantly change my lifestyle. In the past three months I’ve managed to lose 15 pounds. I’m not super fit stud yet but I’m well on the way. This stuff is hard but the coaches make it fun.
Being a veteran, I’m no stranger to PT. That being said, I’ve never trained this hard and not sustained an injury. The coaches expertise and dilligence keeps things effective and safe.
Wish I would have started this a long time ago.

I’ve CrossFitted at a few different gyms and am very impressed by PAW. The gym is clean and well stocked with equipment and the coaches are great.

The thing that I enjoy the most about Crossfit P.A.W. is that their coaches are extremely helpful and are willing to work with you as you progress. They aren’t put out that they have to scale the various exercises. I also like that there is instruction during each class.
The thing that amazes me the most is that they are able to have such a diverse group of people working out simultaneously. Men and women. Beginners and experts. The weak and the strong.
I’ve attempted to do the whole Crossfit thing on my own and it just isn’t the same. There’s something about having PJ (the owner) or Ben encouraging you to keep going when you want to quit that just can’t be replicated in your own little home gym.
I’m a results-​oriented person so I’d be remiss to leave out the fact that I’ve experienced huge strides in the two and a half months I’ve been attending.
