Absolutely outstanding experience. I started here over 10 years ago then moved out of state for a while. Came back late 2023 and the atmosphere was exactly what I remembered and why I came back. Extremely challenging program, the trainers clearly put in a lot of work and thought into the workouts and again, there's just something about that box. Feels like family. Everyone helps everyone, there's no ego, no negative vibes. I've seen the transformation in some of the newbies and its just insane, including myself. If you're looking to get in shape, and you're looking for a home away from home, you will not be disappointed!

Highly recommend this place if you want to get back into the active lifestyle, looking to do crossfit, or want to try something new! The coaches are helpful and people are pretty welcoming. I've been doing the Bootcamp program for a few months now and it's been a super fun! Coach JP leads the program and he's friendly and amazing at what he does. His wife, Coach Mo, is equally amazing as well as all the other coaches I've met so far. I've definitely noticed a change in my strength, physique, and overall approach to fitness. The classes are challenging but there's good music and JP's dad jokes so you're going to crack in a laugh here and there while covered in sweat. Overall, the program is pretty lively and makes you want to come back for more.It can be intimidating at first but with consistency and asking for help on techniques and lifts, it'll get better with time. Everyone has to start somewhere! The guy at the front desk (Nam) is also good at getting new members acclimated to the gym and makes you feel comfortable so don't be afraid to speak up or ask questions!

Being relatively new to the East Bay, I wanted to find a gym and community nearby. I’ve always been intimated by CrossFit and so I was glad to stumble on a bootcamp classes option on Classpass. Coach JP and Mo were so friendly and welcoming and after the first class, I was craving to come back again and again.I then signed up for a Saturday bootcamp but the ClassPass app was having a glitch and messed up the schedule. They introduced me to the CrossFit and the rest is history. I’ve been coming to OW for a little over a year. Everyone from the coaches, to the staff, to the members have been nothing but welcoming. If you’re ever keen to joining a community, look no further.Thank you One World!

JP aka Joseph Philip is Dope :) He make sures you are doing exercise the right way and also make sures you are WET with sweat by the time you leave Boot Camp.Keep up the good work JP ??Guys let me tell you fitness is like growing a small plant. you have to take care of the plant water it daily and put some fertilizer if need and slowly grow.This is the most friendly gym I ever attended. Do not give up hope and keep trying. 80% of it is your diet, reduce carbs and increase protein AND most importantly do only what your body can support SAFELY. for me SAFETY is more important any thing out there.Important Tip : Please measure your success by doing body composition test, biweekly or once a month. I use Inbody scan. Its available in Max Muscle Nutrition shop. I worked hard in crossfit but did not maintain nutrition I DO NOT want others to make the same mistake.I Hope crossfit Union city also purchases one In body scan to help customers to see their progress.

I joined One World in August 2021. I started attending the evening bootcamp classes. On my first day, coaches Jp and Mo introduced me to the class. Everyone in the class was very welcoming, and the coaches observed me to ensure I was doing the movements safely. I felt very comfortable on my first day. During my time in bootcamp, I learned new skills and developed the confidence to do movements I found intimidating before such as box jumps (shout out to Coach Lalyk for helping me build that confidence).Eventually after a few months of bootcamp, I wanted to do more barbell movements and tried CrossFit. The CrossFit WODs are thoughtfully programmed. For example, Coach Ron programmed a multiple week cycle intended for upper body strength development. I didn't finish the cycle due to reasons unrelated to CrossFit (mostly because I was focusing on another sport I'm participating in), but I understood and appreciated his method. The coaches are experienced in the CrossFit movements, and I've observed they are supportive of the members' goals and journeys.At this moment, I switched to Olympic weightlifting due to a change in my goals. The weightlifting program has excellent coaching--Coach Yatsek encourages team spirit and to have fun lifting. The atmosphere is supportive, and I enjoy going to every training session.Almost two years later after stepping into OW, I feel physically great and have made some awesome friends. If you are looking for a place to feel welcomed as you pursue your wellbeing goals, come check out One World.

Please be careful to not hurt yourself! Review of boot camp class: 1. instructors need to ask for any injuries previous conditions etc. and I did not see any lighter dumbbell weights because starting out even with a 15 pound bar can be more than you can handle, so I would not call this "all levels" 2. when I went there wasn't a cool down stretch/relax at end of class but when I asked the instructor he did say they usually do it just ran out of time that day I am writing this 4 days out from class and though my arms are not as sore now I have lower back pain Other than that the instructors did help personally with good form, but please realize that some weightlifting is not for everyone and modify for your needs!

If you're looking for a CrossFit gym, look no further because CrossFit OneWorld is the one. If you're new to fitness like I was don't worry because all the coaches are very supportive. They will always demonstrate a modified or different version of a movement. The members of CrossFit OneWorld are all different ages, size, weight, etc and come from all walks of life. This gym is phenomenal and has an even better community. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.

CrossFit One World & Self Defense is an impressive gym. It provides a positive environment where everyone feels welcome, and no one is made to feel intimidated. I have been to gyms with very toxic environments. This gym is the antithesis of that. There is a feeling of community, and everyone is here to do something positive for themselves, not to sit around judging others. I love the "Check Your Ego at the Door" sign at the front door. This gym offers a wide selection of programs. One would certainly find a program that is a good match for them. All of the personnel are friendly and helpful. I highly recommend CrossFit "One World & Self Defense!!!

Look no further if you are looking for a "community" of great coaches and people to achieve your fitness goals. When most of us call "One World" our second family, we mean it.I love the flexibility of going to classes at different times, depending on my schedule. One World offers a variety of classes to pick from - Bootcamp, CrossFit, Karv, HIIT, Master's class ( for seniors), and yoga.Each coach is unique, and they program workouts that will challenge and push you to become a better athlete. Coaches are warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable; they understand your weaknesses and limitations and help you get better accordingly. That added personal touch is what I like the most about One World. They genuinely care—the best CrossFit place in the tri-city area. I highly recommend One World to anyone, no matter where one is on their fitness journey.

This spacious and family oriented gym is devoted to meeting you where you are and building you up to be your best. There's a large array of programs available which you will inevitably find something that meets your fitness needs as well, but I am passionate about the Crossfit Program. I was looking for somewhere that felt like a team, and I found it here. Everyone is so welcoming and remembers you by name, and that is not something I have expereinced before. There is real community here. Even further, there's a fantastic Olympic Lifting program that bar none, is the best in the Bay Area. Come here to find your tribe while becoming the fittest you have ever been. The people here are there to support you in becoming your best self.
