Nickel City Athletics was a very welcoming experience. The trainer as well as the owner were extremely knowledgeable about the programming, and explained things for a newcomer. Everyone was also encouraging during the partner workout, which helped me complete the workout. I recommend this gym for anyone new or old to fitness. It is worth the investment and your time. Will be back 100%.

I’ve known and worked with the owner, Becca, for years. She has an excellent approach to fitness and it comes through as professional and caring. She provides an environment that is judgement free and accepting to everyone. I started my fitness journey later in life, and she helped me by being thoughtful about scaling movements to my ability, but she also pushed me enough so that I was able to progress. She started as my personal running coach a few years ago and I went from being a non-runner to completing a half marathon and continually being able to shave time off my 5k’s. It does not matter what level of fitness you are at, Becca WILL be able to help with your fitness goals!

Nickel City is an amazing community of coaches and athletes - and has been a space where I’ve been able to grow over the years. They support each person’s goals and celebrate all fitness levels. I whole heartedly recommend this gym to folks interested or wanting to find a fitness home.

Love my experience at NCA! As a new comer I’ve felt so welcomed by everyone and love the smaller gym atmosphere. It has changed the way I look at working out and I look forward to each class!

JASON CWIKLINSKI​

COACH

As a former collegiate athlete in basketball and baseball I found CrossFit while looking for a change in my exercise routine as I turned 40. I’m always looking for ways to improve my own health and fitness as I have a passion for helping others do the same. 

I want to help members learn the why behind what we do not just complete the workouts. 

Outside of the gym you’ll find me enjoying time with my wife and 2 children being outdoors, swimming & traveling to Disney.  I also coach girls basketball.
