WARNING: I want to inform ever...

WARNING: I want to inform everyone reading this that you have other options with regards to CrossFit Gyms within a 4 mile radius. I was one of the original members when CFOTM opened in 12/09. Since then, the owner, Toby Watson and CFOTM have run this place into the ground by alienating his clients & coaches.



First, Toby Watson has raised his prices by 60% His prices are currently well above what is being charged in Atlanta as well as nationally. Currently he is charging $350 on a month to month basis. Call around, no other CF gym (even the more established ones) charges this much.



Second, Toby's main goal is packing the gym with clients. This past Oct, he put out a Groupon where he signed 500 people. Obviously this angered clients dealing with the surplus of crowds as they aren't being given the attention they deserve.



Third, there is a constant turn over of coaches at CFOTM. I can count 5 coaches that I have gone through during the 5:30 AM class in the course of 21 months - many of these coaches are great coaches who have gone to other gyms. Of course you'll get high turnover of coaches when you are only being paid $10 per hour.



Finally each person has to make a decision on what gym they join. Call around to the other CF gyms in the area and do some comparison shopping. Call and ask to speak to the owners of these gyms and ask what their opinion is of Toby Watson & CFOTM. Ask Toby himself if you can talk to coaches/clients that he's had had since his gym opened. Also, ask him why his exorbitant price increase coincides with him opening a CF gym in Brazil.



The decision is yours. I would highly advise not to give Toby or CFOTM any of your hard earned money.
