Kanna Fitness is an incredible CrossFit gym that truly has something for everyone—whether you’re an experienced athlete or a complete newbie like I was. The coaches are knowledgeable, encouraging, and always ready with helpful tips, whether you’re refining a movement or looking for guidance on nutrition.
In my opinion what really sets Kanna apart, is the community. Everyone cheers each other on, creates a supportive atmosphere, and makes you feel like you’re part of something special from day one.
The workouts are varied, fun, and built around functional movements that translate directly to everyday life. No matter what kind of day I’m having, Kanna Fitness consistently delivers the best hour of my day.

Thanks Melinda, we love having you here!
Kanna Fitness is the best! Even when I am lacking motivation, I feel a pull to show up because of the community and the coaches. Everyone is always ready to cheer each other on, look out for each other, and have fun. The coaches are prepared and ready to support you wherever you are in your fitness journey, willingly modifying exercises based on your individual needs, while also leading a stellar class.
The community is second to none and my kiddos are eager to be part of it! They love going to their own youth classes while mom works out too! Kanna has become a second home for my family in Ambler ❤️❤️

Hey Jessy, thanks for the review! We agree, the community is amazing and is what makes fitness fun!
I initially found the idea of signing up for cross fit intimidating. On the advice of my son I decided to try Kanna. This place is welcoming with great members and knowledgeable coaches. It’s been a great experience. Give it a try!

Kanna Fitness has truly become my third place-a space where the sense of community is real and the feeling of togetherness shows up in every class. The coaches are supportive and encouraging, the members are welcoming, and every workout feels like something we accomplish as a team.

I started going to Kanna in November 2024 and I’m so glad I did! The staff and members are super welcoming and supportive no matter your fitness level. I love how there’s such a great mix of ages in the classes, it’s so motivating! I’d 100% recommend this gym to anyone wanting to give CrossFit a try!

It's been awesome seeing your progress over the last year. Great job, Jaclyn!
For experienced athletes or complete beginners, Kanna Fitness has the staff, methodology, and community to get anyone engaged. The coaches are great, the Level Method used makes every workout accessible, and the dynamic programming keeps you moving. The community of athletes is truly welcoming to all, and supportive as you build your skills and confidence. Kanna makes working out something to look forward to, as you get stronger and more fit. The coaches help you celebrate each milestone, and the instruction and encouragement make growth simple. This is the best gym I have found.

Thanks, Jen! It's so great having you here, you're killing it!
What an amazing find Kanna Fitness is! I was so tired of the same old workouts. I tried Kanna Fitness and I absolutely love it. It has the best mix of cardio and weight training, every workout is different so boredom isn’t an option, and an extra bonus is the wonderful community of people (all ages) that belong there. The trainers are amazing and i think I will love this place for a long long time.

We're so happy to have found each other, Rhonda. From day one you've brought an amazing energy to this community and we knew you'd get along with people who love to learn, work hard, and have fun. Keep up the great work!
For the past 8 years, Kanna has been my home away from home - whenever I'm back visiting family in the Philly area. I can't say enough about this welcoming, inspiring community. They always make me feel like one of the gang when I'm there and they take just good care of my parents when I'm not. If you live in the area and aren't going to Kanna...perhaps its time!

Everything from meal prep classes, book club, friendly team competitions where you can dress up like an alien and more!!!

Aw, thanks Jenn! It's so great that you have been involved with so many aspects of our community, keep up with the awesome work!
I've been seeking a workout community in the area but I was nervous about going to a Crossfit gym. Steph + Cheri were so welcoming and have helped me find the level that is appropriate for me, the modifications my body needs, while still feeling strong + capable. I love how much the brain / nervous system is incorporated into these workouts and REALLY love working out with people of all ages and abilities. Chris and his team have created an awesome + positive environment for getting stronger - physically, mentally and emotionally!

Going to Kanna, I have made incredible friends and gotten stronger and healthier. Thanks for making hard work so easy. It’s done with grit and grace. Give this place a try, you won’t regret it!

Having you and Chris here is so fun! We're really glad you're a part of the community, thanks for being here!
I've been a member of Kanna Fitness for over five years now, and I can confidently say that it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my health and fitness. From the moment I walked through the doors, I felt welcomed—not just as another member, but as part of a supportive and motivating community.
The atmosphere here is incredible. The trainers are not only knowledgeable and experienced, but they genuinely care about your progress and well-being. They take the time to ensure you’re getting the most out of every workout, pushing you when you need it while always prioritizing proper form and injury prevention. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned athlete, they adapt to your level and help you continuously improve.
The workouts themselves are top-notch—challenging, varied, and effective. I’ve seen amazing results over the years, and I never get bored because the routines are always changing. From strength training to high-intensity circuits, every class and session keeps me engaged and excited to come back.
But what truly sets Kanna Fitness apart is the people. The members here are some of the most supportive and encouraging individuals I’ve ever met. No matter your fitness level, you’re greeted with smiles, fist bumps, and a genuine sense of camaraderie. It’s more than just a gym—it’s a family.
If you’re looking for a gym where you’ll feel motivated, welcomed, and challenged in the best way possible, I highly recommend Kanna Fitness. Five years in, and I still look forward to every workout!

Thanks Ryan, it's great having you here and amazing to see the progress you've made over the years. Stay strong! 💪
Update: I have now been coming here for 2 YEARS and I am beyond thrilled with my experience and results. I originally came here because I finally decided to get off my post-COVID butt and get into shape. Plus, I had also recently gotten some higher-than-optimal cholesterol lab work so it was time to move. In those two years here, I have brought my total cholesterol, LDL and triglycerides down considerably and my HDL up by double digits! Not only am I seeing results in my bloodwork, but I am also seeing the physical changes as well. I am truly the healthiest I have ever been I owe it all to Kanna.
I started with a 3x/week membership and changed it to unlimited about 6 months in because I was able to get a good routine and I haven't looked back. No matter where you are in your fitness journey, I would still highly recommend Kanna - the coaches do an outstanding job at making sure catering the movements to your ability while also helping you get to the next level as you progress. I've never been to a more welcoming and genuine place from a health and community perspective - it's truly one-of-a-kind.

I've been coming here for over 3 months and have been thoroughly enjoying my experience. The coaches are patient, kind and motivating and I feel like I belong with the other members. Highly recommend Kanna to anyone and everyone.

Hey Dave, thanks for the awesome review! We're glad you're having a good time here and we're excited to see your progress in class!
I retired from from the US Marine Corps in October of 2024 and began coming to Kanna Fitness on a regular basis in January 2025. I could not be more impressed with the culture and professionalism created by the Kanna Fitness Staff and nurtured by the members (Teammates) who attend every day. The Staff and Teammates are genuine, caring, knowledgeable, and give their all during each session. This is a great place to work out, build relationships, and have fun.

Thanks so much, James. It's great having you and the family here!
Having reached a point of near-dispair with my lack of fitness, I canvassed the Montgomery county area and selected Kanna Fitness as my gym. I chose them because of their wide range of exercise sets (weights, calisthenics, rowing/biking, etc. etc.), their seeming sincere interest in evaluating my needs/wants and capabilities, the time they continue to spend in teaching me the proper protocals for each set (back straight, elbows in, knees flexed, etc. etc.) and the wide variety of workouts for each class. I like having each day's program set and supervised. I particularly appreciate the great number of schedule choices each day (I chose 2X week, mid-morning). The coaches and members I've met have been friendly, warm, patient and encouraging and decidedly non-judgemental. Each workout is tailored to the individual (weights, number of reps, degree of difficulty) and, because I'm a glutton, I try to "push" and leave each session exhausted, but feeling as though I've made another small improvement to my "vehicle". While I don't enjoy exercise - at all - with their support, I'm confident I can/will make this relationship last.

Thanks Sandy, we appreciate you giving us a shot. That's exactly why we're here - to help folks who don't naturally enjoy exercise!
I am about a month in but loving it so far. I’ve tried more traditional gyms but never would get half as good of a workout in as I do with the classes at Kanna. I really enjoyed the Basecamp model where you start with 1x1 sessions with a coach. It was a great way to get familiar with all the exercises and get some initial soreness out of the way. You even get to join your first class with a personal coach by your side helping explain how the classes flow.
The best thing to me is the community of the people at the gym. My first class I was still getting used to everything and throughout the workout you have others motivating you. Everyone including the coaches are really helpful. I’ve found to really enjoy starting my day with the workouts at the 5:30 am class but there are plenty of options to fit your schedule. It’s helped my physical and mental wellness tremendously. If you’re considering it, take the leap!
