CrossFit® 161: Opinions
Negative experience: It is a nice facility, and from doing a drop in the community seems great. Having done 8 years of crossfit previously and wanting to move over from a different affiliate I had questioned the need for mandatory personal 1 on 1 training sessions that were for an additional cost. At this point owner became somewhat abrasive and turned me away. Crossfit membership fees are also the highest in the province. Limited class times.
We appreciate the compliment on our community. We love our members! I’m sorry you feel this way. We work extremely hard to ensure our members safety and to assist them in their health and fitness journey through our coaching. Part of this process is meeting with prospective members with or without CrossFit experience to complete several assessments and get them familiar with our gym and coaching. They are to ensure the new member is set up for success.
Fantastic experience: CrossFit 161 is a great community of people and coaches who genuinely care about you and your goals. Even if you are new to CrossFit, they are accommodating. I like the variety of timings available for my schedule. It’s honesty the best part of Moose Jaw.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit 161 offers exactly what I was looking for when I took out a membership three years ago. Now at age 68 years, I am confident to trust the coaching team with programming for my unique needs. The coaches run classes with athletes ranging vastly in age, fitness and ability/agility. I always feel encouraged, challenged and safe. If I show up and do the work, I get results. This gym is a good fit for everyone. The facility is great! The coaches are top notch, prepared and focused every time.
Fantastic experience: I only have good things to say about this gym. As someone who was not familiar with Cross-fit, the coaches were so easy to train with and such great teachers. It is a "fun" training environment, the coaches always break the ice with a "question of the day". I highly recommend this gym.
Fantastic experience: Great gym! Great people! Great coaches! Great workouts!
Fantastic experience: CrossFit 161 is a very accepting and encouraging gym to go to . Great instructors and you can work at your pace
Fantastic experience: I would not hesitate to recommend this gym. This is a solid “community” with a variety of member skill levels and goals. Knowledgeable coaches are attentive to individual needs with a good focus on proper technique. Workouts are well designed to provide a good balance of strength, flexibility and conditioning with class sizes limited to afford personalized attention.
Fantastic experience: Wade helped me with a awful knee injury that required 17 screws, three plates, a new ACL and MCL. He’s a very thought out, easy going guy who strikes a good balance between pushing people but not overdoing it. He’s very passionate about seeing people live a healthy balanced life. I found my place at the morning class. Good hard working, friendly, down to earth people there. Give Wade a call, meet for a introduction. In my opinion it’s well worth the time and money.
Fantastic experience: CrossFit 161 is an amazing gym where everybody works hard and has fun! The people at 161 are so friendly and fun to workout with!! The coaches are great, and work hard to make your experience at CrossFit a good one!
Fantastic experience: My husband purchase the one on one session with Wade as a Mother’s Day gift. I wanted to get back into working out since the birth of my son. I always wanted to try CrossFit and have one on one sessions since after having a c-section my body just wasn’t responding the same to workouts anymore. Wade took the time to incorporate my physiotherapy exercise and explained the importance of mobility exercises that go hand in hand with CrossFit. He also went at my pace and showed me the variety of exercises along with the technique in CrossFit. Wade & Rachelle were very welcoming, professional and friendly coaches. What I liked about CrossFit 161 is the variety in age of people. I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family.
Fantastic experience: Joining CrossFit 161 was one of the best decision I’ve made! The coaches are very educated, positive, and personable, making a perfect trifecta for you to be successful. The members are so welcoming and friendly. No matter what level you are at they cheer you on and make you feel good. There truly isn’t a better training environment than CrossFit 161!!
Fantastic experience: Attending CrossFit 161 is a genuine pleasure. The owner coaches work diligently to prep & teach a wide variety of classes. I especially appreciate the modifications that allow me to continue working out. In addition to high quality workouts, they create a feel good, do good culture through their supportive & thoughtful leadership, & building caring relationships. The workouts are challenging, varied & different every day. The result is happy clients committed to maintaining good health and living active lives.
Fantastic experience: I have been with CrossFit 161 since it opened 5 years ago. I sincerely enjoy and appreciate the atmosphere Wade and Rachelle have created at the gym. They have worked extremely hard to ensure the people at the gym are, not only well coached, but well cared for. They have built a supportive, dedicated, fun and positive community. Workouts are neeeeeevvvverrrrr easy but they are always fun and rewarding! And knowing there are always people cheering you on and supporting you in your goals causes you to continually push yourself to do better! I am very grateful for the gym Wade and Rachelle have built and for the good things and people it has brought to my life. There’s really no place like it!
