My wife and I did a drop in class this week and absolutely loved it! It was a smaller class that gave us lots of time with the coach. We found him and the others in class to be incredibly welcoming, supportive, and a good balance between pushing yourself, but not hurting yourself. I left feeling great and ready for more! We would have easily have signed up for a membership, but the commute time to / from the gym was just a bit too long for us on a daily basis. The space itself was huge, with all the equipment you could need! If you're thinking about working out here, do it!

We dropped in here twice on our visit to Portland. Sean and coach James were super welcoming and helpful. Vibes are great, very well-suited for us who want a fun, safe, sweaty workout without the competitive gym-bro-dude BS. We’ll be back on our next trip.

Coach Sean provides thoughtful, experienced feedback for every level of athlete. Very encouraging with great overall vibe.

I've been a member of Intrepid Athletics for over two years and I still look forward to going to this gym. I am continuing to seeing growth in my strength, technique and knowledge throughout my time here.The Functional Fitness programming offers a blend of strength and conditioning that keeps me on my toes and prevents me from being bored. The monthly Strongperson classes are always a blast and something I look forward to. Sean and Ruth are extremely knowledgable and bring each of their strengths to each class. They can tailor any of the programming to work around any issues and make the work out right for you. They regularly help me work on specific goals of mine and check in on the progress. The community at Intrepid is wonderful. I enjoy seeing everyone at the gym and am always excited to see them in the wild (outside of the gym). I highly recommend Intrepid Athletics. From the level of attention and knowledge the coaches provide, the programming, the community and the growth I've experienced, Intrepid is an excellent gym.

If I hadn't moved on short notice, I'd still be going here. Saw results quickly, received expert guidance even when I kept repeating rookie gym mistakes. Big focus on form and avoiding injury while building strength the right way. Inclusive crowd, friendly folks just trying to get stronger.

Hands down best gym in Portland! I was looking for strength training and morning group classes. After trying several others in the area, Intrepid is the clear winner. The coaches are experts and explain everything clearly with a focus on structure. Especially if you’re new to lifting or getting back into a fitness routine (like me!), this is a great place, and they have all kinds of options for those who are more advanced. They offer lots of corrections and modifications. I’m someone who hesitated at the “crossfit” label, but Intrepid has a welcoming atmosphere and focus on doing what’s right for your body. As a bonus, everyone is just good people. I can’t recommend intrepid enough!

Comprehensive strength and conditioning. I'm in my late 30's and over the last few years, Intrepid Athletics, its coaches and community have helped me grow stronger, dial in technique, and understand muscle groups more than ever. I'm still PR'ing and learning new tricks.
