During my week in Chattanooga, I dropped into Brigade Athletic Club (CrossFit Brigade) and have to say I was blown away. The facility is spacious, spotless, and loaded with premium gear like rogue rigs, bumper plates, assault bikes, and dedicated areas for gymnastics and lifting perfect for group training without overcrowding.I joined their CrossFit classes all week, loving varied programming (CrossFit Mayhem) that balanced strength, conditioning, and skill work while emphasizing proper form instruction by the coaches.The coaching staff shines: expert, attentive, and energetic, they provided personalized cues, modifications, and a welcoming vibe that made me feel right at home as a drop-in.If you’re in Chattanooga for fitness, Brigade is a game changer highly recommend! 5 stars, I’ll return next trip for sure.

I became aware of Brigade CrossFittness through a surround summer event through the church, I attend Calvary Chapel of Chattanooga. I was interested in at my age too build strength in my muscles not lose the ability to get up and down to be functional to be able to enjoy my grandchildren. I am 69 years old, newly retired in April and have moved to this area in Chattanooga. I actually live in Ringgold Georgia, but come to this facility. The staff is so friendly so helpful I do not feel like I’m out of place because of all these fit and muscular skinny in shape people. I have never been one to enjoy exercising, but since I started this 10 weeks individual class with Emily, she is a great encourager. She knows our strengths in our abilities and what we need to work on or I should say what I need to work on. She has a beautiful smile and is so encouraging. She doesn’t push us past our limits. She’s very concerned and careful with bodies my age, but she educates Us on nutrition in the need the need to strengthen our muscles and our core To prevent certain declines in our bodies that happens with age, but doesn’t have to happen if we exercise strengthen our muscles helps us with our posture and our coordination. Emily teaches us about the importance of my body and spirit and resting our bodies getting plenty of fluids and water. Our education is a as important as the movement.The staff also at brigade CrossFit is very friendly, very helpful and so encouraging always has something nice to say always says hello acknowledge as you when you come in the facility is Clean full of fresh air open lots of equipment to work with and I just love the fact of the openness and being able to see outside and feel the fresh air while I exercise. I encourage anyone who, even if you don’t like to exercise go and build your muscles and your strength and your coordination for us women it’s important for prevention of Osteo and many debilitating disorders that happens to us women as we get older. I’m glad that they have a program that addresses age groups abilities. There’s so many more opportunities at this facility also physical therapy, pain, management, yoga, and the best thing that I love about Emily is her love for Jesus she doesn’t impose it on you push it on you, but you just see the love that she has for people thank you Emily for opening up your doors through the summer through surround summer events.

Come and check out everything I write.Thank you for everything.😘

Working out at Brigade is more than a physical activity. When people come together in a place that unifies them for the purpose of achieving a goal, it creates community. In an era where in-person relationships are dwindling, we need each other more than ever. Brigade has become more than a gym, it’s become a home. All glory to God for what he’s doing in the hearts and lives of members and coaches at Brigade.

I’ve worked out for years, but my progression at Brigade is unparalleled. Technique coaching and programming by Emily is taking me to the next level.

2025-08-07T22:56:36.550Z

My experience at Brigade Athletic Club has been life-changing! As someone who didn’t know anything about lifting weights and never even thought to try it- my coaches at Brigade made me feel welcome and taught me proper form. They gave me a passion for working out and now I can’t live without it! What truly sets Brigade apart from any other gym is that the coaches see you. Not just as a client who pays to workout, but as a person. They can tell when you’re having a bad day and will open up the space for you to talk about it if you feel the need to. Emily Griffith is an outstanding coach and an even better friend. Brigade isn’t just my gym, it’s home.

This is the best all around place to get in shape fast. I was injured and they found ways to work around my injuries but still kept me involved. Best location as well with easy parking. I highly recommend them to anyone in town . Make sure and support local businesses like this.

I was initially intimidated to do CrossFit. I was looking for something a little less “intense” & loved that Brigade has different options for different levels and different goals. My first class was traditional & good, but hard (like it should be). But then I tried a functional female fitness class, and it was just what I was looking for—I felt the burn, but I could still walk/lift my arms 😬 Emily is an inspirational, strong teacher (#goals) and also gentle for those of us who need that. The community is also a sweet gift. I recommend giving it a try. 💖

Brigade Athletic Club, coaches, clients, and athletes are the best of the best! Whether you are a skilled athlete, a busy mom, like myself with a little bit of experience, or someone taking their first steps into a healthier lifestyle... this is where you want to be. Brigade's classes are for everyone! I first joined Brigade 9 years ago after struggling to get my life back on track after baby #2. It changed how I looked at fitness and nutrition, and honestly changed my life. Now entering Menopause I feel stronger than I ever have. I would have never been able to say that without the support of both Emily, Eric, and their amazing coaches. They have poured their heart into this community.Jill Jinnette 💪
