Expérience fantastique: Coming from a S&C background, CrossFit movements were never on my radar of either programming or having fun. For those interested in CrossFit I highly recommend coming along to Norak for a class. What can you expect. No intimidations from the members or coaches, a class full of belly laughs, programming that caters to all levels of experience and above all you’ll have FUN

Expérience fantastique: Norak is an incredible place with a vibrant community. I personally never liked gym environments until I found Norak. The coaches are highly skilled and knowledgeable and will modify movements to ensure everyone feels included and welcomed. I started with zero fitness experience and I've grown stronger in the last years both physically and mentally. Thank you for your continued guidance and support. It is a gift to know you all.

Expérience fantastique: Love the Norak coaches, community, and environment! The coaches are knowledgeable, supportive and encouraging. They meet people where they’re at and push us to do more/better as appropriate. The community and environment is hands down the best I’ve experienced in my over 20 years of attending gyms. Not only am I a CrossFit convert, I’m hooked for life to the Norak community!!

Expérience fantastique: A great facility providing an array of workouts supported by amazing coaches.

Expérience fantastique: Went to NORAK as a drop-in for almost two weeks while in Winnipeg for work! They facility is great, the staff knew their coaching and the people were great. After the first few days, it was like I'd been going there for years. They knew me, my name, and I had my 'spot' on the floor. They do some serious stretching at the end of a warmup that I will keep doing at my home gym! If you're in Winnipeg and need a solid workout, this is the place.

Expérience fantastique: The best box with the best energy. Norak’s community is unreal. Supportive, welcoming, heartfelt and honest. No matter if you’re a first time fitnesser or a competitive performer, you’ll fit in and push yourself here ❤️

Expérience fantastique: I have been doing CrossFit on and off for a 7 years and in my travels what I have found that makes a gym great is knowledgeable coaching and a strong feeling of community. When my wife and I moved to Winnipeg late last year not knowing where to go we took a chance on Norak Crossfit and they did not disappoint. The coaching staff are knowledgeable and know how to cater to everyones current abilities and a community that is second to none which solidified itself in my books after my first CrossFit Open experience at this gym. If you are visiting for a few days, new to the area or even trying CrossFit for the first time this is a place you want to check out.

Expérience fantastique: Great coaches, inspiring members.

Expérience fantastique: 10000/10, best place. Thoughtfully crafted workouts with an amazing community! Somehow they make sweating and hard work fun.

Expérience fantastique: Awesome coaches, exciting workouts and amazing people, what more can you ask for!

Expérience fantastique: No other community quite like the one you’ll find at Norak. The members and the coaches welcome everyone with open arms. The workouts are killer, and scaling for different levels or injuries is always very easy to do/ talk to the coaches about! 10/10 recommend to everyone!!

Expérience fantastique: Nervous of joining CrossFit? Norak is your place! The staff are knowledgeable, consistent, friendly and adaptive. They will tweak workouts for any needs, and encourage you to grind through whatever challenges you’re facing. Every class accommodates all abilities, you will see growth no matter what. Every person who walks through Norak’s doors is hooked! This is in part due to the heart and soul put into the details of the box, classes and the values they stand by. It is a second home to all ❤️

You are encouraged to learn new movements; if you follow you will notice the progress. Def worth a try!

Expérience fantastique: i sashayed into the gym one day, a heavy middle aged lady who likes the outdoors and wanted to see what else i can do. they welcomed me, they encouraged me, they taught me and made me do things i never thought i could ever do. actually, watching them move made me want to do things i never thought i could ever do (including hitting the gym at 6am!). i still sashay into the gym at 6am and now i can do more than i ever did. i'm at my strongest my entire life, and there are more i'm hoping to be able to do some day. the greatest thing, though, is that norak, the coaches, the community, makes the process fun and encouraging. and they tolerate all my grunting and moaning.

Expérience fantastique: An excellent facility with a welcoming and supportive atmosphere. The knowledgeable coaching staff will meet you wherever you are at in your fitness journey and get you to the next step. It is never too late to improve your functional fitness and this is the place to do it!

Expérience fantastique: A great gym with very supportive coaches! Go to Norak to reach your physical fitness goals.

Expérience fantastique: A shining example of how to build a strong community around fitness, health, longevity, and performance. Everyone’s goals are achievable here, and all levels of fitness are welcome. Fantastic coaching staff, excellent thoughtful programming, physiotherapy, osteopathy, and massage therapy on-site. I’ve attended 600 classes here (and counting), and was previously a regular at your average 24/7 access gym. The coaching and guidance here has improved my fitness, technique, and movement quality in all areas beyond what would’ve been possible on my own. There is nothing more encouraging than the intensity and positive energy in these classes and you will absolutely get fitter and stronger. The gym hosts special holiday events for members and highlights the Crossfit Open, there are periodically different extra classes, seminars, competitions, and fundraisers for local charities. As one of my absolute favourite places to be, I can proudly give this place and these people my highest level of recommendation.

Expérience fantastique: It’s excellent gym with a great community ! Coaching is also exceptional

Expérience fantastique: After a few running injuries, many people suggested I try strength training. I started CrossFit at Norak thinking it'll be a great way to not injure myself while running and coach led classes to ensure I was doing things properly. Let me tell you how much this place as has done for me. Injury free since joining but also my self confidence, strength, and quality of life has drastically improved. Norak is more than just a place to work out, it's a community. Invest in yourself and check it out.

Expérience fantastique: I’ve spent time in many gyms over the years and this is hands down the best gym and group of coaches I’ve ever worked with. Super inviting and inclusive environment. Very knowledgeable staff who care about their members well being and progress. There’s no better investment than in your own health so do yourself a favour and check them out.

Expérience fantastique: I was terrified about trying CrossFit but I was drawn to the coach led group exercise idea. All my life I believed that I did not like the feeling of exerting myself in a big way through exercise so the idea of CrossFit was very intimidating. Add to that my age of 46 when I started and that I was completely out of shape and overweight, not to mention having several persistent issues with my lower back, elbows and feet. I chose Norak specifically because of one of the reviews I had read made it sound like this might be possible for me to try. One year on I can confidently say that I made the right decision in choosing Norak. Norak got me started with personal coaching sessions with Mike and his relaxed positive demeanor allowed me to feel comfortable enough to learn and try all the new CrossFit movements. I also started attending the Masters Class of 55+ which was a very warm and welcoming group to work out with, not to mention so inspiring. Much to my complete and utter surprise I started to find during my work outs that I was loving the experience. I loved the loud music, the warm and friendly athletes in the Masters class and Mike's coaching. Fast forward 3 months and I started the regular CrossFit classes. I won't lie it was intimidating and took some time to find my feet but through it all the coaches were incredible. Each coach at Norak is patient, kind, encouraging and helpful. They always help me to modify movements to work around my various physical limitations. They are all extremely knowledgeable and careful to instruct each athlete to avoid injury and to learn movements the right way from the start. I did try a different CrossFit gym one night that was much closer to my home but while it was very welcoming it only helped to confirm what I had discovered in Norak was unique and special. The physical environment is warm to the eye, which matters alot to me; the music is loud, which I love; the coaches and staff are professional, welcoming, and so knowledgeable; it is clean enough for me, which is saying a lot. Special shout out to Coach Mike and to Paul for your encouragement and warm welcome. I'm not sure I would have been able to commit to the process without your support and warm manner. In closing, I love going to this gym. It has become my happy place. I have come to realize that I love interval and strength training, especially in the capable hands of Norak coaches. They have created something special at Norak. Come try it out! Thanks for listening. Bye.

Expérience fantastique: Norak is so much more than just a gym. It's a community of people who will cheer you on and push you to be the very best version of yourself!! The coaches are incredible and invest in each member individually to achieve growth. The programming is top notch, and the staff and members will welcome you warmly every time!! 10/10 recommend. If I could select more than 5 stars, I would!!!

Expérience fantastique: Amazing gym and amazing coaches willing to assist you with reaching your full fitness potential.

Expérience fantastique: - [x] Norak has provided me with a safe and supportive environment where I’m able to feel connected with myself through improving my health and wellness. I’ve built confidence, achieved personal goals, set out for new ones, and have never been left feeling alone or in fear of pushing myself to the next level. The coaches are all very empowering to work with, and being a part of a group fitness environment has a powerful vibe of its own. The classes offer a great sense of unity and I feel like we are all moving forward together as a team, and that nobody is ever left behind. Norak offers the perfect combination of positivity, drive, and encouragement to meet the needs of anyone coming into the gym for the first time, regardless of their level of fitness. This is one of the best gyms I’ve ever been to, hands down!

Expérience fantastique: Awesome gym, awesome coaches, great programming, great people. You’d be a fool to go elsewhere.

Expérience fantastique: Top notch gym! Excellent coaching and programming! Norak CrossFit is a great gym to improve your health and wellbeing. The community that Norak CrossFit foster is a source of encouragement to achieve your personal fitness goals. The coaches are approachable and will guide you step-by-step through the movements. They keep attention to your personal fitness level and are respectful of your level of strength and endurance, but will push you to do better. The memebers are friendly and you will immediately feel part of the community.

Expérience fantastique: Great Gym! Love the people, I’ve mostly been here for competitions which they are happy to host! But they’ve always been accommodating even as a temporary member! I often refer people to Norak if they want to start getting into CrossFit or want a great work out. Give them a shot !

Expérience fantastique: While there are lots of gyms, there's only a rare few which make you feel at home, welcome and accepted. Norak CrossFit is one of those unicorns, a gym filled with love and friendship, community and camaraderie. Yes, there's hard work and sweat, but under the careful eye of a knowledgeable coach who designed a workout to improve your health and wellness for the rest of your life. There's also registered massage therapists and physiotherapists to help sooth those sore muscles or help design a rehabilitation program to get you back to your former self. Come in for visit and start on the road to a better life.

Expérience fantastique: Incredible community. Great coaches and programming, and friendly people that will make you want to get to the gym at 6am in -30 weather. So very thankful that I found Norak.

Expérience fantastique: Norak CrossFit literally changes lives every day with fitness and community. Led by Head Coach and Co-Founder, Megan Maes who is one of the most knowledgeable, dedicated and caring coaches in the fitness community. In addition every other member of her team is also amazing at what they do every day for the Norak members. Megan and her team personally made me a better athlete and person and I highly recommend if you haven’t already coming to meet the coaching team and community you should! You will not be disappointed

Expérience fantastique: The atmosphere at Norak is like no other gym in Winnipeg. It is the most welcoming and encouraging environment. After every single workout, you leave feeling accomplished - every win, big or small, is celebrated. The coaches are fantastic and they care about your goals inside and outside the gym. The membership is entirely worth the money... in a little less than a year of being a member at Norak I can confidently say that I am stronger and faster than I have ever been before. This wouldn't have been possible without Norak CrossFit. I feel confident and strong in my body for the first time in my life. Plus, the Norak community is incredible. I cannot say enough good things about this place. To those who are worried about trying CrossFit, every workout can be modified to your own needs, plus the coaches will guide you and help you along the way. Everyone is welcome! You'll fall in love with the Norak community, and gain a bunch of amazing friends along the way! Join us! :)

Expérience fantastique: My home away from home. Coaches that are knowledgeable and care about their clients. Gender neutral bathrooms, pride flag, clean locker rooms, friendly staff, on-site therapists--Really just your one stop shop for fitness and wellness. Try it out, you won't be sorry.

Expérience fantastique: Had a great drop-in! Megan is a very competent coach and gave new, valuable inputs. Learned a lot. If we're in town again we would definitively come back! Thank you!

Expérience fantastique: Coaches here are the best. I'll let the results speak for themselves.

Expérience fantastique: Was visiting family in the Peg and did a drop in. They were extremely accommodating and got me all booked in with no issues. The facility is new, clean, and well equipped. Coaches were knowledgeable and helpful. I would strongly recommend this place!!!!

Expérience fantastique: Incredible atmosphere and such a positive experience. Was welcomed by a very passionate and caring co-founder before taking the class and both instructors were kind and extremely knowledgeable. I took tips and cues that I’ll have forever. Workout was intense but also very scalable depending on fitness level. All around 10 star experience and I am looking forward to being in town again!

Expérience fantastique: Nice place

Expérience fantastique: Nice place

Expérience fantastique: I joined Norak CrossFit about a year ago and I couldn't be happier with my experience. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, and the community is welcoming and friendly. The gym is well-equipped and the workouts are challenging but fun. Highly recommend Norak CrossFit to anyone looking for a great fitness experience!

Expérience fantastique: Very welcoming gym. Came in for a few days during a work trip and was worth the drop ins. Solid workouts and coaches.

Expérience fantastique: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality

Expérience fantastique: I joined Norak a little over a year ago after taking part in bootcamp. After participating in CrossFit for a year and a half now I can say I have never felt as strong as I do now. I know when I go for a workout the programming is going to be challenging and easily modified to accommodate my skill level and abilities. The coaches and staff have all been so welcoming since day one. They have worked very hard to create a community for all ages and skill levels and it shows. It’s that community that keeps me coming back and pushing my fitness goals. I have nothing but good things to say about the Norak facility and team, highly recommend this place.

Expérience fantastique: Looking for a centrally-located gym with professional coaches and a well equipped facility? Looking for a way to improve your training routine? Norak should be at the top of your list. I took a long hiatus from Crossfit, but decided to give it another try about a year ago with Norak. It seems the whole style of crossfit training has really evolved in a positive way over the years. I'm a year into it and still feel like I've just started to scratch the surface into my own potential. That's what it's all about. Enjoying the process and working towards self improvement each day. Norak has what it takes to help you achieve better health and well being no matter what fitness level you're at. They make it easy for you to transition into the regular programming through their intro bootcamps. I can't say enough good things about this place. I'm currently 36 years old and truly believe that I'll be in the best shape of my life at 40 thanks to Norak. Give them a shot!

Expérience fantastique: I've been doing Crossfit for just over a year now at Norak Crossfit. All the coaches are amazing they fit the workout to your needs. It's such a welcoming environment for all athletes no matter the skill level, everyone wants you to succeed with every workout. The community is truly one of my favourite aspects, nothing compares to having people all around you motivating you to be the best you can be with no judgement. If you want to just show up and have all the programming ready to go and feel motivated by your surroundings I 10/10 recommend trying Norak Crossfit!

Expérience fantastique: Positive: Communication Grateful for their online classes during the covid shut down

Expérience fantastique: I'd heard a lot of negative things about CrossFit and was a bit skeptical about whether it would be good for me as I've struggled with chronic low back pain that has limited my movement and restricted my range of motion. As per the process, I met Megan and even though after that meeting I was still nervous, I was motivated to at least try it out. I am so glad I did. The coaches are incredible (like truly fantastic), and even though they're having to watch a group of people, I still feel like I get the guidance and support to do the movements safely and more importantly, improve my strength and confidence. The workouts are super fun and challenging and I really appreciate how the coaches are very intentionally to scale them appropriately. What's even better about all of this, is that this place is full of super nice and encouraging folks. This is the first time I've gone to any gym where someone knows my name (other than the person who sits at the front desk) and where a group of people celebrate each other's successes. I didn't think it would happen, but I've come to love CrossFit - although I suspect it's more about Norak than anything else. I highly recommend this place - it's the best!

Expérience fantastique: Beautiful, open, clean facility. Coaches that are willing to help you with anything you need even when they’re on their way out the door, after coaching. When everything closed during the pandemic these guys offered online programming and lent out their equipment. Doesn’t matter what fitness level or age everybody is treated equally and modifications are always offered. This is more than just a community, this is a family. Love this place.

Expérience fantastique: Best CrossFit gym in Winnipeg! The programming keeps challenging you, coaches always there to help and guide you with positive feedback and encouragement. The staff keeps the box, equipment, and washroom/showers well maintained and clean.

Expérience fantastique: Large well set up crossfit gym. Staff are absolutely amazing and friendly. They create a welcoming and inviting environment for everyone whether your just starting out or been doing it for a long time.

Expérience fantastique: Such a blast at this Crossfit Gym. Workouts are always really well organized and planned out. Keep your body guessing :) Smells amazing for a gym; because it's super sanitary. Extremely welcoming team!

Expérience fantastique: I've been training with Megan the head coach for three years. I am in the military and I have improved my yearly fitness test results each year, with this year being the best when I scored "Platinum", 397 out of 400 points. 99.9% of the people who do this test will not achieve this score. "How was the FORCE Rewards Program scoring tables determined? Based upon the results of over 109,000 FORCE Evaluations, performed in 2016-2017 thresholds were created to ensure 50% of the CAF could achieve the Incentive level. Approximately 34% could achieve Bronze, 14% Silver, 2% Gold and 0.1% Platinum." Come train at Norak and see how far you can improve yourself.

Expérience fantastique: This is my happy place. You should join us.

Expérience fantastique: Love, love, love ❤️ this gym! Have been grinning and bearing some gyms/classes all my life - can’t tell you enough how much I enjoy attending the longevity classes!! Megan and Jed are great trainers and private sessions with Tiffany (Tiffany is osteopath on-site)have been awesome. Mike seems great as well ( only one class with Mike ). Paul M at the desk is lovely person and so helpful as well! Exceptional Physiotherapist Iain is on-site as well. Holistic team approach at Norak! Activity is paramount for aging well......thinking about CrossFit ? Norak trainers are great at modifying the workouts for your body and fitness level ..don’t think about it... get out of your comfort zone and just try it!! Highly recommend

Expérience fantastique: Great coaching team and location. I have been keeping an eye out for a CrossFit gym in the exchange area for the last few years. Highly recommend this place to people of all fitness levels. The atmosphere will keep you coming back for the enjoyment while achieving your fitness goals at the same time!

Expérience fantastique: Great coaches, location, programming, and facility.

Expérience fantastique: Dope CrossFit gym, got all Rogue equipment, only thing is they're a little small, but it's an awesome gym regardless of the size

Expérience fantastique: I love this place! Beautiful big open facility that is clean and well kept. The coaches are friendly, supportive and really know their stuff. They go above and beyond to make sure you are getting the most out of each workout. Norak, and Coach Megan have helped me tremendously with getting in shape, building my confidence, and helping me move better and safer. The best part of my day is walking into the gym and feeling like I am home. Norak has done an amazing job building a community that feels like a family.
