This is my second shot at CrossFit. I am two weeks in and I really enjoy the vibes I get from everyone. Coty was great helping me figure out what would work for mea and has kept in frequent contact with me asking how it’s going, which is nice.Being new to Charlotte and having moved SO many times the thought of building a new social group is as appealing as going back to a non Tesla from a Tesla…BUT everyone here has been so cool, conversational, and made it a point to welcome me. I can see me being homies with almost everyone I’ve interacted with. I didn’t get that at my last CrossFit experience a few years ago. It was very SoCal influencer ego. This space here is such a welcoming space.I’m excited to learn and challenge myself to grow, which is always hard but all things worthwhile usually are hard.Btw Coach Stephanie’s playlist has a few songs that have landed in my “Ibiza 2026” playlist- so thanks for adding vibes to my Spain trip in a few weeks unintentionally :-)Anyone new to Charlotte who wants thrusted like a barbell hip thrust out of your comfort zone, I’d recommend trying this place out!Ciao,Jon

I’ve been a member for about 8 months now and it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made.The coaches at CFMI are knowledgeable, motivating and supportive. Regardless of where you are in your fitness journey, they can tailor any workout/movement to fit you. They push you to be the best version of yourself but in the best way possible.Everyone you meet makes you feel welcome from the very beginning.If you’re looking for a gym that promotes health and fitness, has a great workout regimen and leaves you feeling energized, I encourage you to give CrossFit Mountain Island a try.

I love this gym dearly, I rejoined after taking some time off in 2025. Since then, I have lost ~ 60 lbs, I’m around 10% body fat, and I am setting PRs in every category. The people here will motivate you and hold you accountable and you will have fun doing it. The coaches truly care about you inside and outside the gym. Never thought I would be doing CrossFit competitions again, but the members and the coaches really inspire you to keep pushing no matter what.

From the moment I stepped through the gym door over 3 years ago I haven’t looked back. CrossFit Mountain Island is more to me than a CrossFit gym, it’s a second family. A family that pushes me everyday to be my best. The owners put their heart and soul into their programming, nutrition, and coaching. I love the people, community, and fitness classes. I have made CrossFit Mountain Island my home.

2026-03-15T21:48:57.802Z

I’ve been going to Crossfit Mountain Island for three years now. Do I feel stronger? Yes. Do I still love my CrossFit family? Yes. Coty and Noelle are not only great coaches, they also ensure all the coaches hold high standards. They continue to foster a family atmosphere while providing quality CrossFit training. I highly recommend their services.

I joined the CMI fam in July of 2025 and I’m so glad I did! It’s a great environment to work out in, very beginner friendly, and a really strong community. I highly recommend checking out this awesome gym!

2026-03-10T00:50:03.491Z

I’ve been going to CrossFit MI for around 6 months and absolutely love it. It’s so much fun and I wish I would’ve found CrossFit years ago. The workouts are challenging and constantly varied, and you always leave feeling like you got a great workout in. In the best way, it pushes you to always improve and get a little better each time.The community is awesome too. Everyone is so kind and it feels like the neighborhood just coming out to workout together. Come give it a try!

I joined MICF almost two months ago. Since joining, I have worked out with almost all of the coaches and a lot of the other members. This gym is full of people that care about form and quality workouts. Everyone is pushing everyone! If you are looking for a group workout, no matter your age pr physical ability, I can't recommend MI CF enough.

2026-03-03T14:51:26.702Z

I did CrossFit for two years in Florida (2020–2021), but after moving to Charlotte in 2022, I hadn’t found a place that truly reconnected me with it.In 2025, as I began a new journey of rediscovering my identity and self-esteem, life led me to Mountain Island CrossFit — and I couldn’t be happier.The coaches are knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in your progress. They adapt every workout to your level, making sure everyone feels included and capable. There’s no comparison or judgment — just support, growth, and community.If you’re looking for a place where you’re more than just a membership, where people celebrate your progress and truly care about your evolution, this is it.

2026-03-02T22:27:48.779Z

Best environment of any gym I have ever been to. Lots of couples and families, encouraging, growing in strength and community.Love this gym. Highly recommend to any level.

2025-10-30T20:59:32.006Z

I’ve been working out at this CrossFit gym for a while now, and I can’t say enough good things about it. Coty is an incredible coach—motivating, knowledgeable, and great at tailoring workouts to every skill level. He really takes the time to make sure your form and programming are on point. Noelle is fantastic with nutrition coaching—she makes the process simple, sustainable, and personalized. Between the workouts and nutrition support, I’ve seen major improvements in both performance and overall health. The community here is welcoming, supportive, and pushes you to be your best every day. Highly recommend to anyone looking to level up their fitness!

If I could give this place more than five stars, I would. I stumbled across this gym when I was looking for a HIIT gym or other class-based gym nearby. This gym was the closest option for me, but I had never done CrossFit before, so I was a bit hesitant. I saw great reviews and figured I would give it try anyways, and I found such an incredible atmosphere. There are people across many ages, with different fitness goals, all working towards the same thing. Everyone is extremely kind, encouraging, and supportive of each other. In the one month I’ve been there, I’ve quickly felt at home. The coaches are all extremely educated on form and they do an awesome job of ensuring safety by focusing on getting the form down before introducing too much weight. I’ve been given modifications for an injury I’m recovering from and the trainers often check in to ask how it’s feeling.I feel like I found a gem of a gym.

2025-08-02T22:32:57.095Z

I joined CFMI about 4 mo ago and it's one of the best decisions I've made. I started my membership with personal training and nutrition coaching which really set me up for success to get back on track. The owners and coaches clearly have a passion for what they do and made me feel super welcomed. I always feel comfortable asking questions and I truly appreciate the guidance on proper form. The community here is wonderful. Everyone is so supportive and it truly makes a difference.Huge thank you to the owners and coaches, I'm so grateful to be a part of this amazing community!

2025-07-28T23:22:45.069Z

After several months of thinking about it and reading reviews (especially here on Google), I finally decided to join CrossFit Mountain Island, and honestly, it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made.I hesitated for a long time, mainly because of all the stories you hear about people getting injured doing CrossFit. But now that I’ve experienced it firsthand, I can say that hasn’t been my experience at all. At least not at this gym. The coaches are always paying attention to your form and performance during every workout. They correct you, guide you, and adjust your routine if needed so that you can train safely and progressively.What I love most is the atmosphere. There are people of all ages, and they all seem to share a common goal: to feel better. The energy in the classes is something else—it truly feels like a community, almost like a family.Now I understand why Coty, the owner, had me go through a 90-minute interview before I even joined. He wanted to know my short- and long-term goals, and in hindsight, I realize that letting me into his gym was like welcoming me into his family.It’s been almost 3 months, and I’m already seeing changes in my body, energy levels, and overall mindset. I have absolutely no regrets—this place has exceeded my expectations.Thank you for letting me join your team.

Always grateful to have become a member of this CrossFit community. I became a member back in June and have felt great since then. It’s challenging, but there are a handful of awesome coaches who are there to help you along your fitness journey. I’ve been exercising continuously for years, from my military career to regular bodybuilding, and have hit several plateaus. CrossFit is helping me overcome them. Along with that, the community was very welcoming and friendly. The only I regret I have is not joining sooner.With that being said, I highly recommend joining this gym, regardless of your level of fitness experience. Because the magic you are looking for, may be hidden in the work you are avoiding.

2025-03-17T18:43:41.493Z

Love the energy. Love the people. Great equipment and the staff is amazing. Very communicative and energetic. First time doing CrossFit and I’m loving it.

2025-02-24T15:20:07.575Z

Perfect place to be fit!!❤️❤️

2025-02-18T18:18:28.136Z

I was one who was shy and intimidated by what CrossFit workouts entailed. I never thought I’d see myself doing the workouts I do now! Since joining, I’ve felt stronger and overall healthier. The gym is owned by Coty and Noelle, who evidently have a passion for what they do and the people they coach. The coaches are also the best! It’s truly hard to pick a favorite.I would recommend this gym to someone either very experienced or completely inexperienced. With time, commitment, and some grace (with yourself. It won’t be perfect right away), you can do what you once thought you couldn’t. And you’ll feel stronger and better for it!

2025-02-14T16:53:06.264Z

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐2/14 update: still a proud member of CFMI. Close to 3 years in and I can honestly say joining this gym has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my health.

They create a supportive and motivating environment that encourages me to give my all during each workout.The sense of camaraderie and support among members is second to none. The variety of workouts keeps me engaged and motivated, and I have seen significant improvements in my strength, endurance, and overall fitness levels.I am grateful to be a part of the CrossFit Mountain Island community and would highly recommend this gym to anyone looking to challenge themselves, grow stronger, and be a part of an incredible fitness family.

2025-02-03T23:22:44.397Z

Joining CFMI was one of the best decisions I've ever made; I was so nervous at first, but Noelle made me feel welcome and comfortable from the first time!! Coaches are knowledgeable, friendly, and patient; they always take the time to explain workouts and correct you if necessary. I'm happy that I joined this gym.

2025-02-03T22:08:12.182Z

CrossFit Mountain Island has been exactly what I needed to get back into fitness, and actually enjoy it. I was a little intimidated at first, but this gym has such a welcoming and supportive community that I never felt out of place.The coaches are knowledgeable, encouraging, and great at scaling workouts to meet you where you are. They push you to improve without making you feel like you have to be the strongest or fastest in the room. The programming is challenging but fun, and the energy in the gym is always positive.If you’re looking for a place that will help you get stronger, feel more confident, and actually want to work out, this is it. Couldn’t recommend it more!

2025-02-03T15:11:41.870Z

Great program! Everyone is super nice and they help you out getting started. It's way better then a typical gym, coaches are there to keep you going. It's aqesome!!!

2024-12-31T17:00:31.000Z

FIVE STARS! This gym is the best! I am almost 65 years old and the coaches are so helpful when I need to modify my workout. Crossfit is for everyone. I feel so much better mentally and physically since I started. I highly recommend Crossfit Mountain Island!

2024-12-28T17:38:38.014Z

Great workouts and great community.

2024-12-20T16:33:29.374Z

CFMI is amazing! From the moment you walk in the door you are treated like you’ve been part of the family! I’ve had some not so good experiences with other CrossFit locations. But at CrossFit MI the coaches actually take the time and train you and correct your form so you dont get hurt.. Hands down, this is the best CrossFit location I’ve been to!! Coty and Noelle, y’all rock!!! 😁

2024-12-16T16:00:09.724Z

FIVE STARS to CrossFit Mountain Island! I am almost 65 years old and I love working out at CFMI. They all make me feel welcome. The coaches modify each day's workout for me. The atmosphere is relaxed and fun. I look forward to going every day. Don't be intimidated by "crossfit." It's a great way to build strength and confidence. Even at my age - LOL!

2024-11-25T19:52:16.817Z

I’ve been training at CrossFit Mountain Island for just over a month now, and I can already feel and see a difference!

They’re knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely care about helping you reach your goals. They provide personalized guidance and ensure you’re performing each movement safely and effectively. Whether you're a beginner or more experienced, they meet you where you’re at and always push you to do your best.
