MADE Art Boutique
A great place to find unique, local items! And a fantastic location — easy to stop by if you’re in Roosevelt Row for First Friday.
Core Collective Fitness
Core Collective is a genuinely community-focused gym. I had never even *touched* a barbell before joining, let alone tried CrossFit. But the coaches are fantastic at guiding you through effective, smart workouts — with personalized modification options.
The classes are small enough that you can always get individualized help from the coaches, and the other members are also extremely friendly and willing to help. The minute you first walk in, everyone will introduce themselves and make you feel welcome. The members here cover a wide range of ages, fitness goals, and ability.
I was hesitant to join a CrossFit gym because I worried that the culture would be “bro-y” or too focused on weight loss and diet culture. But that isn’t the case at all — the coaches really just emphasize is getting stronger and consistently improving. I haven’t witnessed any of the toxic weight loss/diet culture here that is prevalent at so many gyms.
The space itself is cool, based out of an old church. The equipment and overall setup isn’t anything fancy, but the community is awesome.
Give a class a try! Their locals trial program is super generous, so you have nothing to lose :)
