Reach Athletics

Fantastic experience: Reach Athletics is an excellent facility with top notch coaching. I belonged to this gym when we lived in Concord and miss both the programming/coaching and the incredible community. I continue to drop in when I visit MA and am always welcomed with open arms. This is truly a special community—warm and supportive while simultaneously kicking your butt right into gear! Love it

Fantastic experience: Reach Athletics is an outstanding CrossFit gym that truly stands out from the rest. The facility itself is spacious and well-designed, offering plenty of room for training without ever feeling overcrowded. It’s the perfect environment for both high-intensity workouts and focused strength training. The coaching staff is exceptional. Each coach brings a wealth of knowledge, professionalism, and encouragement to every class. They take the time to provide clear instruction, correct form when needed, and offer personalized guidance to help members progress safely and effectively. Their enthusiasm and commitment to members’ success create a supportive atmosphere that motivates you to push beyond your limits. What makes Reach truly unique is its community. Members come from all walks of life, creating a welcoming and inclusive environment where everyone feels like they belong. Whether you’re new to fitness or an experienced athlete, you’ll find encouragement, accountability, and camaraderie that make every session something to look forward to. Reach Athletics combines top-tier coaching, a dynamic and spacious facility, and a diverse, uplifting community. It’s more than just a place to work out—it’s a place to grow, connect, and achieve your goals.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Dana and her crew. This isn’t scary, intimidating CrossFit. They do an incredible job at scaling and modifying for athletes of all skill levels. If you’re on the fence and you think “I’m not a CrossFit person”—well, think again. Seriously. If I can go and hustle, ANYBODY can go.

Fantastic experience: Best of the best! Dana and her team are amazing and very knowledgeable. Amazingly welcoming atmosphere, accepting all levels of fitness. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Reach is awesome. I have been so pleased with everything from the schedule to the workouts to the space. But two things most of all, the community and the coaches. The coaches are knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, motivating and engaging and always there to provide extra support or a adaptation. The community is second to none, and everyone supports one another, there are no divas or "gym bros," only a great set of peers that are there to get fit and encourage you to do the same.

Fantastic experience: The atmosphere at the center is truly exceptional, with everyone inspiring one another to push their limits and REACH for excellence. Working with Mason has been an absolute joy and a transformative learning experience, as he has helped me rebuild my body, brick by brick, through chronic injuries.

Fantastic experience: I have had a great experience working out with the semi-private group led by Mason. Mason is a true expert and continually adapts workout programming to fit client needs. I have experienced great results working out with him and I also enjoy the sense of community in the gym. Highly recommend for both experienced lifters and those getting the first start.

Fantastic experience: The space is top-notch—clean, well-equipped, and thoughtfully laid out to support all types of workouts. Whether you're lifting, doing metcons, or working on mobility, there's everything you need. What really stands out is the variety of class hours. No matter how packed my schedule gets, I can always find a time that works, which has made consistency so much easier. The coaches are incredible—knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely invested in your progress. They meet you where you are, push you safely, and celebrate your wins, big or small. But what truly sets this place apart is the community. It's welcoming, supportive, and motivating. From day one, I felt like part of something bigger than just a workout. The members and coaches lift each other up, and that energy helps you stay committed and reach your goals faster than you imagined.

Fantastic experience: At Reach Athletics, Dana and her team, know exactly how to motivate, encourage and engage kids in learning about movement in fun and exciting ways. I’m always amazed at how focused groups of kids are during the activities planned for them!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going here for years and they are really amazing!! Super friendly and completely “scaled” to your abilities, which means you will be doing whatever movement&weight right for your current skill/strength. You will wake your body UP! You will enjoy the “class” style workout. There is no way I could do what can do here, outside of the “class” format...there is a team aspect to it that really pushes you. I never set foot in a gym before coming here, so don’t worry about it (many beginners)...and just try it!! Ok-2025 update: I appreciate this gym more and more everyday! I tried working out at my wife’s regular style gym to see if I cut expenses (kids starting college) and it was a ok at first, then totally boring! And I couldn’t FORCE myself to go! Sound familiar?! So, I’m back at Reach, and it’s a BLAST as always! You WILL (very likely) have FUN! Just try it…and you’ll understand.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Mason if you are dealing with an injury that's interfering with your training. I've had recurring lower back and shoulder pain over the years. I met with Mason and he identified the movement patterns contributing to the pain, took the time to explain why I would be feeling pain, and created a warm-up program to address the root causes and allow me to move more freely in my workouts and in everyday life. Thanks Mason!

Fantastic experience: My first time joining a gym and I love it! The coaches are awesome the workouts are fun and hard work in all the right places! Really great facility and equipment.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend!!!

Fantastic experience: Really great gym, with top notch instructors. Good variety of classes (including nutrition programs). Very well-managed and friendly atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: The Gold Standard for a CrossFit gym. Everyone is super welcoming and the workouts are always a blast. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough good things about Reach. I joined the gym three months ago and it has had a huge impact on my fitness levels, energy, focus, and overall mood. The coaches are outstanding and the community they have created is incredibly supportive and welcoming. If you are on the fence about CrossFit, like I was, I highly recommend giving it a try. Each class is only an hour long and is guaranteed to be a great workout.

Fantastic experience: It took me a long time to officially affiliate with a CrossFit gym, but Reach made it more than worth the wait. The coaching, the kind faces, the quality of the facility and equipment - everything is just a perfect ten. And the family-friendly atmosphere keeps me ensured my whole family will be coming here in the years to come. So grateful to have found Reach!

Fantastic experience: The coaches at Reach Athletics have helped me tremendously over the last few years to work on my fitness in a sustainable way, that’s enjoyable at the same time! I saw a lot of improvement in my endurance levels, muscle and flexibility with the help of the amazing workouts and coaches at Reach Athletics. Thank you for making me feel excited about getting up and working out every day!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been at Reach for 3 years now and it is one of the best health-related decisions I’ve ever made! The community is supportive and fun, the coaches are fantastic and the workouts are always challenging. Win-Win-Win! If you are looking for a place to get fit I can’t recommend Reach highly enough!

Fantastic experience: Reach Athletics is a great gym, has amazing coaches, and has the best community I have ever seen! I was nervous getting back into the gym postpartum, but with Reach's great coaching staff I knew I was in good hands! Not only does my daughter get to see me get stronger but she gets to watch a lot of great moms get stronger too!

Fantastic experience: MAN, what would I do without this community? Reach is more than a gym. It's a home of wonderful people who show up to crush some fitness. We all have our own version of what that is. For me, it is showing up to move my body, keep my mental health in check, and show my kiddo what some healthy habits are. The coaches are fantastic and help you scale each movement to your comfort level. If you are reading this and are on the fence about trying out a class, this is your sign: DO IT! Haven't worked out in years? No one is going to judge you. Don't know anyone? I will meet you there and be your first friend. Invest in yourself, it is so worth it.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Reach Athletics for about 18 months, and am very happy I joined. Since I stopped playing soccer (at age 50), it was difficult for me to find a form of workout that was of similar intensity, but something my body could handle. Reach has been that place. The coaches are very supportive and willing to work with you to modify a workout to something best for you (if needed), and the workouts are as intense as you want them to be. The coaches are also very knowledgeable on the movements. The owner of Reach is incredibly personable and really cares about your well being. I’m not saying CrossFit is for everyone, but there is a range of people of all ages and abilities that make it work for them, which I find impressive, and the community at Reach is supportive and fun. I’m so happy I joined this gym.

Fantastic experience: After taking several years off, it’s exactly where I want to be. The coaches are incredible and make each workout fun but challenging. Also a great community of members!

Fantastic experience: A really great gym with great facilities

Fantastic experience: Reach has helped me break bad habits, strengthen muscles that had previously gone dormant and disrupted a cycle of hip/back pain that was becoming an issue in my day to day. I feel stronger and more energetic and can horse around with my daughter without thinking of how to minimize the pain I'm feeling. To boot, the community at Reach flies in the face of the "stereotypical CrossFit gym". Happy to have found this place and would recommend it to anyone looking to make a positive change.

Fantastic experience: As a newbie to both CrossFit and Reach Athletics, I’ve loved how welcoming and supportive the coaches and fellow members are. An experience that could be overwhelming and intimidating in the wrong environment is only positive and inspiring in the hands of Dana and her team. It’s clear a lot of intention has gone into building a community that I’m excited to become a part of.

Fantastic experience: I went to Reach for the first time this summer when my family was invited to a children's bday party there. I was not only happy with it's convenient location but also how it was set back in the trees and not in a typical strip mall looking space. When we walked into the actual gym, it was super spacious and very well equipped. Saying the kids had a blast at the party is an understatement. After this lovely introduction to the gym (and some of the very welcoming staff and members we spoke with) we are definitely interested in signing the kiddos up for classes there!

Fantastic experience: Sean is an amazing trainer! The gym was super helpful getting me started and keeping in touch.

Fantastic experience: I hadn’t worked out much during COVID and found my way to Reach Athletics in Dec 2022. I love the focus of Dana and the coaches on overall health, working out as a means to leading a good and healthy life, and their support in forming healthy nutrition habits to support this lifestyle. This focus on health and strength (rather than on weight loss or body image) is fantastic and I couldn’t ask for a more welcoming environment. Thank you, Reach Athletics team for all of the support!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! Great coaches, great members, and great supportive environment!

Fantastic experience: Have been a member over 5 years, can’t say enough positive things about the coaches, community, and environment! I love the fitness programming and customization possible - coaches make it beneficial for everyone that comes, no matter their background or fitness levels. Love the variety of fitness - it’s never boring keeps me active and engaged!

Fantastic experience: I was looking for a challenge and a place with no ego. Reach is both. People are great - take the work seriously but not themselves too much! Instructors are really professional and vested in everyone with lots of focus on form. Encouraged to go at a pace that challenges you while testing injury free. And with cross fit everyone has their strengths and challenges - which is a real leveling of the field. And the results are real and sustainable. Best decision of ‘22.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in for a few classes while visiting family over the holidays and couldn’t recommend the gym more. Drop in was quick and easy. Gym has a ton of space and all the members and coaches were super friendly. I took the 9:30 am classes with Dina and Sam while in town. The coaches were attentive and gave thorough technical instruction for all the movements in the WOD as well as advice on pacing prior to the WOD starting. Definitely would recommend dropping in if you’re visiting or joining if you’re a local.

Fantastic experience: Reach is a friendly no judgement zone. The trainers are willing to help scale down or up each workout. Always encouraging and supporting each person as they work to improve their overall well being. This attitude allows the participants to encourage each other. A great place to work out!

Fantastic experience: Great people and fun atmosphere that motivates you to work hard and improve!

Fantastic experience: Great environment and awesome community! The coaching staff is professional and super personable. Everyone at Reach Athletics wants to see YOU succeed and will help you achieve your goals (nutrition, fitness, coming back after injury, some time off from the gym, etc.). Working out here is always the best part of my day. I highly recommend joining if you’re thinking about it!

Fantastic experience: My happy place....I look forward to coming here every day for a great workout

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great people, great workouts. Good times.

Fantastic experience: Great place to get fit! Staff and members are awesome!

Fantastic experience: Team of coaches are excellent. I & my teen son joined in 2021 and seeing the difference. Glad I joined !

Fantastic experience: My daughter had a wonderful experience with the teen class and was able to build back strength and stamina after an injury. Most importantly, she developed confidence in her abilities and enjoyed going to each class. The leaders were warm, welcoming, and encouraging. We look forward to returning!

Fantastic experience: Reach is more than just a gym. We are a group of people all looking out for each other. To grow, experience and develop together. We work, we sweat, we laugh, and we push each other all the time. The atmosphere at Reach is contagious. The energy is seemingly endless. Come for one WOD class and you'll be so energized you won't have to think twice about coming back!

Fantastic experience: Reach athletics helped tremendously with my C-section and postpartum recovery. The coaches I’ve experienced are all very accommodating to people’s physical needs and pay close attention to your form in order to avoid injuries. I’ve never felt singled out like some other establishments I’ve been to. Highly recommend !

Fantastic experience: I started out about 4 months ago hoping to get more resilient to the frequent injuries I had been getting playing soccer. The first few weeks were tough but the coaches helped me modify when needed and made sure my form was good to prevent injuries. The people who work out there are a tight knit but welcoming community and really that’s the best part. They honestly enjoy seeing you improve and encourage it daily. The price is the best you will find and the owners invest their time and energy making sure you get the facilities and support you need ! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Reach is a fantastic CrossFit gym. Their coaching staff is universally excellent. The class offerings are varied, and I especially enjoyed the weight lifting classes. The space is nice, with a high ceiling and big doors that they open any time the weather permits. The gym has ample parking and is right next to the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail, which provides additional commuting and workout opportunities. The owner is a local and is very involved in community activities in and outside the gym. If you're at all interested in CrossFit, getting in shape, and around the Acton area, definitely check out Reach Athletics. I couldn't recommend it more highly.

Fantastic experience: So welcoming! Dana and her team at top notch! Always a pleasure to come in everyday.

Fantastic experience: Reach Athletics is a fantastic CrossFit gym. The coaches are exceptionally talented and meet every athlete where they are to ensure a fantastic workout. The programming is great, and the community is welcoming and kind. Highly recommend Reach if you're dropping in, looking to get started on your CrossFit journey, or looking to transfer to a new box.

Fantastic experience: Such a positive, supportive and fun place to workout! If you are looking to get in shape, be healthier, do something for yourself, or get an advanced workout Reach Athletics is the place! I have been going here for 2 years and it never gets old. 100% worth the money and you will see results just by showing up consistently. Great for all ages too! I am 19 and started at 17 and I love working out with people younger and older. Plus there are so many great opportunities: nutrition coaching, endurance training, strength training, partner workouts, and mobility all in addition to the WODs!!!

Fantastic experience: BEST PLACE EVER. WELL RUN, GREAT PEOPLE!

Fantastic experience: I moved my family from Needham to Acton in the midst of the pandemic and was looking for a solid CF box to come to. After being a part of a community for 7 years and needed to find a new place to call home, Reach did not fail at all. Every Coach is there to make sure you get the best hour of your day. The community is unlike anything I have been a part of. It is a very special place.

Fantastic experience: Best CrossFit Gym in Boston!!! Awesome space and awesome people!!! Friendly to all levels...

Fantastic experience: Reach is awsome, it has a great atmosphere. The coaches are great. If you are looking for a fun gym with great people and you want to get in shape, Reach is the place to be.

Fantastic experience: Love it!
