This is my first CrossFit, but not my first gym. I was at another gym before this one, and the difference is WILD! CrossFit Shokunin is such a great community of people - friendly, kind, welcoming, and they push each other. I have thoroughly enjoyed it! The owner, Joe, is great and all of the coaches want to see you succeed. Such a great spot!

I was nervous to start working out because I’ve never done anything like CrossFit before, but this place has completely changed that for me! From day one, everyone has been so welcoming and encouraging. The coaches I’ve worked with so far — Joe, Dustin, and Bill — are awesome. They’re patient, super knowledgeable, and really take the time to make sure you understand what you’re doing.
The community vibe here is unreal. People cheer each other on, high-fives are flying, and it just feels good to be part of something that pushes you to be your best. Every class is motivating, fun, and challenging in the best way. I never thought I’d actually look forward to working out, but now I do. If you’re thinking about trying it — just go for it. You’ll love it!

Joining CrossFit Shokunin as one of the best decisions I’ve made for my journey to better myself. In just a few short weeks I am more confident and stronger than ever before. All the coaches are super knowledgeable and constantly emphasizing proper form. Worried about working out after a total knee replacement the coaches have been awesome and offering modifications for movement for my fitness level. This gym has a very positive and happy atmosphere. I highly recommend CrossFit.Shokunin for everyone, no matter where you were at in your fitness level.

I love Shokunin! Honest to the name, Owner and Coach Joe is very skilled in his coaching and dedicated to his members. He knows who's who, where to push, where to pull back and uses his expertise to help you enjoy the workout while advancing at your own speed.
The energy from the members is incredibly welcoming and supportive. The programming is challenging for advanced athletes and easily modified for your own progress.
This gym also does Tons of events and really puts a lot into building the community.
What I enjoy the most is the positive and constructive atmosphere. You come happy, work hard and leave happier!

I've been training here since last September. The community is amazing of course! But what I really love about this gym is that the owner, Joe, really goes out of his way to ensure everyone can work out. There are multiple class times every day, so anyone can fit it in no matter their schedule. Open gym is also all day long, so even if for some reason you can't make a class time, you can still drop in and work out anyway. He also provides supplements and nutritional food for purchase. I also really enjoy the nutritional challenges that are given. All the tools for living a healthy lifestyle are to be found here at Crossfit Shokunin!

I wanted to try CrossFit for sometime now, and although I recently had a baby and my knees and back are destroyed, I decided to take the leap and just look into places near me. What I liked the most about CrossFit Shokunin is that they have multiple sessions throughout the day for those of us with busy schedules, a place I can bring my kiddos if needed, and a really motivating community. I expected to do my free week and then call it quits but Joe is very knowledgeable, doesn’t push me past my body’s limits and offers modifications for things I am not physically ready for. I don’t ever feel intimidated being the last to finish or not lifting as heavy and that’s the kind of environment I think anyone starting can appreciate. I highly recommend CrossFit Shokunin for not only a great workout but also great community. I always finish my workouts feeling accomplished and stronger!

Did a drop-in early March and was welcomed immediately at the door. My friend and me we're looking to do open gym, and the staff was flexible in allowing us to use the space. In fact, when one of the classes cleared out, they were great in allowing us to do a metcon in the open floor space. We had a chance to connect with Joe, who was very personable and made us feel at home. Would definitely come back and try an actual class!

The whole gym is welcoming. Everyone is really so nice and encouraging whether you’re a beginner or been doing training for years. Coach’s are encouraging and will work with anyone on any level of fitness and make them feel welcomed. As a work from home mom who hasn’t been in the gym for years it was definitely intimidating to come in and start but the coaches and other gym members have all been so welcoming.

After being at my previous GYM for a long time, I needed to expand my horizons. I had called into boring repetitive workouts and noticed that I was not pushing boundaries on my abilities any longer. I began searching for my next adventure and found CrossFit Shokunin. CrossFit can be intimidating for anyone, at Shokunin you will find a community of people who is focused on supporting one another. All different types of people, at different skill and fitness levels. Members don’t feel hesitant to try new things or push their limits and you will leave knowing you had a good workout. I also appreciate the strict focus the coaches place on proper form and technique to prevent injuries and ensure members are getting the best out of the workout. Great job Shokunin…keep it up!!

Great gym! Great Community! I dropped in to do Open Workout 24.2 because I was in town on vacation. Joe was very welcoming when I stopped in earlier in the day to check it out.
Drop in fee was only $10 and all the equipment was new. Really nice rowers and bumper plates.
If you are looking for a spot in Mesa to drop in I wouldn't hesitate. If you live in the Mesa area I would strongly consider joining this gym because they seem to be a great community - supporting each other.

I found this gem while searching for a crossfit or bootcamp type gym in my area on groupon so I could take my husband along to see if I could get him to join. To my surprise, I finally found a gym and workout space that my husband likes (I like it as well). First time my husband quickly decided to join a gym, let alone a Crossfit gym. It is a Great space filled with good people. Coaches start class on time which is a huge plus (compared to other gyms I've gone to). I appreciate that they value our time. Coaches model all moves and explain everything clearly. They also provide us beginners with modifications as needed. This makes us feel safe as we train and learn new techniques and workouts. Owner's are great as are the rest of the clients. Everyone is friendly and they all encourage everyone. Nice family environment as well. Highly recommend CrossFit Shokunin!

I originally started CrossFit in 2008 and got my level one in 2010. I have been to many CrossFit boxes across the nation including military. I’ve been here now for over two years.

Many athletes drive from Phoenix and Scotsdale for these reasons. Definitely come and try it out!

After years of bodybuilding, I decided to try my hand at Olympic weightlifting. After over a year of struggling with this new style of lifting, it was obvious I needed help. I shopped around for gyms with oly lifting knowledge and found CrossFit Shokunin. Joe had taken the time to find a program that would work for me and worked with me to get my movements corrected. I had better results in one month with Joe and CrossFit Shokunin than I did in my year of self taught training. The gains continue, thanks to coach Joe. Highly recommended 10/10

I also committed to Shokunin because I loved, loved, loved the fact that they have a class at almost every hour!
I completely recommend this gym especially to any scaredy cats like me! Soon I will be completing my third month! ¡YAY!

At 70 years old, I was worried that I couldn’t keep up. Wisely, the coaches scale the events just enough so that I get a tough workout while staying in pace with the rest of the class. Because everyone is friendly and encouraging, Crossfit Shokunin workout sessions feel like a team practice rather than an solitary trip to the gym. CrossFit Shokunin gives me the structure and the accountability I need to reach my physical conditioning goals.

Couldn’t be happier with CF Shokunin. I have been to countless CF gyms and have personally coached in 4 different gyms myself (CF-L2) over the years, so I tend to be a little critical and have high expectations. Joe has exceeded all expectations and then some. He’s very friendly and knowledgeable, has excellent coaching cues, strong attention to detail, and genuinely cares about each person that walks through the door. Top notch equipment and programming, and best hours/schedule I’ve ever seen offered from a CF gym.

I have always been intimidated by “crossfit”gyms because I thought it was just a bunch of fit people lifting crazy heavy weights and doing funny looking pull ups. A long time friend of mine invited me to come by and see for myself and check it out. After months of hesitating and procrastinating I finally joined Crossfit Shokunin recently and I must say it definitely exceeded my expectations. The workouts (WODS) can be modified to fit every individuals needs and seeing your body transform and getting stronger is priceless! The vibes here was very welcoming and inviting. I love that the community at crossfit shokunin is so diverse and helpful. Met some awesome people here. Different people from all walks of life come here with the same goal. Everyone is supportive, the coaches are pretty awesome very knowledgable and hold you accountable so you can meet your goals. Its also very clean and has a play area for kids, huge win for the parents with no baby sitters.

I've never been a person who thought they'd be doing crossfit but a friend finally drug me out and I'm glad they did. The gym is solid with very nice well maintained equipment. The workouts are intense but still tailored to push you to your individual limit. The coaches make all skill levels feel welcome during the workouts, I'm only a month in and there's definitely a noticeable difference in what I'm able to do. If you're looking for a cool local gym with great coaches and good people look no further.

I’ve never in my life had a regular work out routine but this gym and coach changed that. The tough love and encouragement that you get from the members and coaches cannot be beat. You also find people who struggle with working out and can’t run a ten minute mile (like me!) so it’s nice you never have to feel intimidated and you see growth everyday. I’m so happy I found CrossFit Shokunin.

For those who are questioning about what gym to go to....traditional gym or crossfit? Crossfit has changed my life in a positive way. When you walk through the door everyone greets you and you feel the positive atmosphere ✨️ The coaches are amazing and they guide you in every workout. They will tailor a workout to help you succeed. Since I joined about 6 months ago I have lost weight and body fat and gained a lot of new friendships.

I’ve been going to Shokunin for a little over a year now. The team at Shokunin is great, they really work to help you learn all the movements and make sure that you are safe while doing them. I am far from being anything close to a talented CrossFit expert and that’s why I love being a member of Shokunin because everyone no matter your physical ability is made to feel welcome!!
If you are looking to start CrossFit but are nervous. No worries because Joe Gamez (owner) and the rest of the Shokunin family will be there to help you get going!!

CrossFit Shokunin is a gym that is inviting and is a fun place to be. Joe pushes you, yet meets you where your fitness level is. There is a lot of care, concern and passion how things are run. It shows in his clean gym and organized classes as well as the close community that has been created. I love being part of this cf family and community. I have been attending this gym for over two years. Cf Shokunin is 10/10.

I’ve been coming here for 2 years. The coaches encourage you to reach your goals and do better with every workout. There is a strong community of people, fun events, nutrition challenges, and the facility is top-notch! There are many class times throughout the day and childcare at 4:00 and 5:00. Being a working mom, I really appreciate the childcare opinion! Thanks CrossFit Shokunin for your support through the years.

Update: It's now been a little over a year and I still love it. They're always reevaluating and improving things. Even as time goes on, the equipment and facilities are well-maintained and clean. The gym puts on lots of fun challenges and activities throughout the year to keep it interesting and promote a sense of community. The people here make it great!
I've been going to CrossFit Shokunin for about 7 months. I had never done CrossFit before but I worked out a lot and thought I was in pretty okay shape. Well, I am literally in the best shape of my life now.
I was scared to try CrossFit. I'm not what you would call "athletic" or "coordinated", but the training I get here has helped me improve so much. The coaches are knowledgeable and helpful. Even in the group setting, they give individual feedback and really try to help you improve your technique. The whole community is really fun and supportive and I look forward to going to the gym every day. If you feel nervous, this is a good place to give it a shot.
Other good things: childcare, showers, excellent equipment, healthy meals and drinks to purchase, tons of options for class times.

I originally was trying to find a gym with a day care. I was 4 months postpartum (now 9 months postpartum). Little did I know that this gym not only had a day care but a coach who was knowledgeable about postpartum. This place meets you where you are both mentally and physically. I have shared laughs and tears here. I can’t emphasize this enough, ALL ARE WELCOME IN THIS SPACE!

Absolutely a 5 Star gym. Owner Joe set out with a simple mission, “make CrossFit mor accessible to everyone”. He has certainly done that! Great location for running outside. You can run a 5k without crossing a busy street. Membership costs are lowest in town. The only gym I know that does a punch card system. Pay as you go! This includes all the benefits of a full monthly membership including premium equipment, a trainer in every class, showers, drinks and snack available and access to the app. Weather you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced, there is someone like you in this gym to connect with. All the workouts a “scalable” so don’t worry about what level you are at now. I’ve worked out at every hour and have noticed everyone is good about wiping equipment down after every class. The gym smells like a gym not an arm pit. Give it a try! 1st week is usually FREE.

Great gym! I've been working out here for a year and a half now and it has only gotten better. The spacious facility is awesome. The coaches really help develop your skills and meet your individual goals. Joe, Jon and Evyonne all bring something unique to the staff and I really enjoy working with each of them. It also has a great friendly atmosphere. New people are welcomed and experienced athletes are challenged. I love being a part of this community. I highly recommend checking it out.

Dropped in for two classes while I was on a family trip for spring break in the area. It was easy to find and conveniently located with plenty of parking, clean and well-maintained, and new equipment. WODs were fun, coach was cool, other attendees were nice, and drop-in price was very reasonable and best compared to the other gyms in the area. I wish I could have attended classes for the whole week but had been sick. I would return again if I’m in the area in the future.

I am thankful to start my journey again here! I am just getting back to Crossfit after extreme weight gain and at almost 50 years old. I was nervous. Everyone was so kind and I felt very comfortable. Joe is a great coach, informative and patient. He really works to scale things back to make sure we are safe and do not get injured. Great atmosphere, super clean, awesome comradery. If you are on the fence, jump in! You will have no regrets.

Since I started working out at Shokunin, I am no longer afraid of death. The constant torment made me physically and mentally stronger within less than a month. My boss gave me a raise because he’s scared of me now. The community at this gym is amazing and has shown me that hell is oddly enjoyable when others suffer with you. Shokunin’s arsenal of torture devices made my little masochistic heart jump with glee. Their rack is better than Pamela Anderson’s. The outstanding workout programming will have you come back begging for more. You may have to crawl, but their showers have a bench in case you’re unable to stand after the workout. Don’t hesitate. Get your life together and come to Shokunin already.

This place is exactly what I needed at this time in my life! I briefly tried CrossFit twice in the past, but I was inconsistent, and I did not feel like I fit in. I decided to revisit the idea in 2020 and found CrossFit Shokunin the day before it opened! I felt like that was a sign! I registered and showed up at the 5am class on its first day, very scared but very excited! Little did I know, CrossFit Shokunin would become my happy place and that I would find a family there! I turned 50 a few months ago, and I feel and look better than I have most of my adult life. My doctor and my chiropractor are my biggest supporters (aside from my workout buddies). The workouts are challenging, but that's what I love about them! Everything can be modified, and I notice progress almost every time I work out! Coach Joe is the real deal... he helps us better ourselves, but he also works out with us, which is motivating! If you've been thinking about trying CrossFit, this is the place! Do it! Do it now!
UPDATE: I'm still here and loving it! The box is as clean and organized as it was when it first opened...actually, it's better! Coach Joe makes improvements quite often! The community and atmosphere Coach Joe has created provides a safe haven to many of us in this unpredictable world. Give CrossFit Shokunin a try! All skill levels welcome!

Update from my last review 3months ago! Still in love with this place and the community, but I would like to add and recommend the 6 Week Nutrition Challenge!! I joined mid January and I am amazed on how much it has done for me. It is easy to follow, keeps me moving, the challenges in between that we get every week have been so fun and doable! You get daily lessons to better your life daily and support. Very thankful to be part of the CrossFit Shokunin community! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

I love going to Crossfit Shokunin. Great community, everyone was very welcoming since day one. I have never felt intimidated by the coach, workouts, or other members. Joe (the coach and owner) knows what he’s doing, he’s awesome, funny and patient. Answers all the questions I have. He always makes sure we always get the moves right and makes sure we got our shape in place throughout the workout as well. The facility and bathrooms are always clean!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

CrossFit Shokunin is the best gym in the valley, in my opinion, for these very simple reasons:
- AMAZING people and community (+David lol)
- copious amounts of caffeine consumption
- hard workouts that make you question life
- improved strength and in body and mind
- motivated coaches that want to help you and work right along with you
- awesome and delicious healthy meals to help you eat cleaner
I’ve loved every second that I’ve been in the gym, and I highly recommend to anyone who wants to try CrossFit to get started here. You won’t regret it. Except when the workout starts haha.

If you are looking for a place to start your fitness journey, look no further! CrossFit Shokunin is the place to be! I started here about 5 months ago,started seeing results within the first week, and I can never get enough of it! The coaches here are very professional and attentive to their members and their fitness goals. The community here at Shokunin is very welcoming and never judges you. We are basically family here. The vibes and atmosphere here is unmatched! I can definitely guarantee you that for sure! I’m grateful for the coaches for pushing me to reach my full potential and never allowing me to quit on myself. If you have kids don’t worry he has a play area for kids as well. If your work schedule is out of wack don’t worry he pretty much has a class every hour from 5am-9pm Monday-Friday to accommodate your needs.So stop making excuses and come join the CfShokunin family! Update: Been here 8months and the results have been amazing! What would of taken me for years to accomplish I have done so in 8 months. The programs here are unmatched and will help you keep those pounds off. The pictures don’t lie! (First picture was when I started this journey, second is where I’m currently at) if I can do it so can you!!

Coaches are very knowledgeable and always make sure to stress correct technique.
The gym is very clean with all new equipment. Everybody is friendly and welcoming!
I love the app too! It lets you reserve your spot, check in, and look at the workout details ahead of time so you can prepare.
There is an area for the kids with a sofa and the TV.
Bathrooms are exceptionally clean and have lotions, potions, and feminine products (I'm not sure about men's bathroom).
There is also a fridge for your after workout shake or you can buy a shake or a drink there.
They also love dogs!
