My husband and I started working out at Shamba Way in June of 2022. We just moved in the area at that time. Coach Jake, the owner answered our call instantly and we started our free workout session with Coach Thomas the following day. We were impressed by the prompt response and getting us in right away! Since then, we’ve been coming consistently to the 5 AM class with Coach Yaremy and Coach Nick. All of the coaches are great, knowledgeable and inspiring! We love the support we get during the workout and in reaching our fitness goals. The best part of it is the community! Everyone influence each other to be better not just in our health and fitness journey but also in other areas of life! In addition, we like the fact that we can go to both Shamba Way or Shamba Vibe depending on our schedule or even just to do a “fun” weekend workout at Shamba Vibe. We are so grateful to be apart of this gym!

Coach Yaremy and the rest of the 5am crew are awesome. Everyday is a different workout and Coach Yaremy is great and pushes me with every lift. It’s always fun, even at 5am!

This gym is my happy place! I go to both locations, Shamba Vibe and Shamba Way, in Costa Mesa and Newport. The coaches are amazing, friendly, fun, knowledgeable, and cheering and believe in you. Everything I need from a coach to push you a bit more than you would do by yourself. I love the programming, and in just one year, I have seen more broken PRs than ever before. People at the gym are the greatest, like-minded who share a passion for sports.

Shamba coaches Nick and Yaremy changed my life! I never been so committed and enthusiastic! No the usual CrossFit gym where they push you over the edge all the time and risk injuries. I started October 2022 and since then never stopped. I’m 46 and I never been in a better shape. I definitely recommend to anyone to join the box and have fun with it.

Tried all the other CrossFit places around and this is my favorite. Great workouts for all abilities and class sizes are perfect. You don't feel like sardines like a lot of the other places. Coaches and owners are super involved and you can tell walking around there is a pride of ownership in how the place is kept.

Great fitness community with caring coaching whether your looking to be challenged by group fitness classes or one on one personal training! Nick is the BEST trainer in Orange County for the busy executive looking to get and stay fit with a dedicated personal trainer!

Neighborhood CrossFit gym that focuses on strength and conditioning. Smaller class sizes = more personal attention to focus on form. The coaches are really knowledgeable and helpful- some even have personal training options. Gym is kept clean and equipment is well maintained. Everyone is really friendly and there are lots of opportunities to socialize. They also have another location near the airport that you can drop into.

My favorite gym!! Shamba is an amazing, supportive, and uplifting community, that pushes and encourages everyone to train harder and lift heavier. Classes offer the perfect balance of cardio and weightlifting, with all experience levels welcome. Shamba feels more like a family that holds each other accountable and motivates everyone to get stronger !
