I love Black Collar Crossfit! Meddy is the most dedicated gym owner I have ever met. Meddy and all of her staff make you feel like you're apart of a family. They make it their job to check in on you and make sure you have everything you need to be successful. During this whole COVID pandemic, they have done everything they can to make sure we stay as safe as possible. If you want to get in shape and be apart of a family, I recommend joining Black Collar Crossfit!

Drop in here if you're visiting (or join if you live in Des Moines). Great facility and coaches. Trust me, the Army has moved me all over the country, I dropped in while TDY, this is one of the good ones.

Dropped in this morning. Great space, awesome people. I really felt welcomed. We spent a good amount of time warming up before the WOD, and went through some pull-up work after. Great experience. Definitely going back!

Dropped in today while visiting Des Moines. Friendly atmosphere and good coaching. Appreciated the coaches for watching my form and giving me pointers. Would drop in again if in the area.

A fun welcoming community with fantastic coaching, and a beautiful name! Akeso: the Greek Goddess of the practice of healing. This place lives up to its name.

Everyone here is super friendly and welcoming. They make it easy for anyone to come in, regardless of CrossFit experience.

I dropped in for a class while in town on business and instantly felt welcome. Great programming, coaching, and workout.  Thanks and I will definitely be back.

I stopped in Des Moines for a couple of days and the crew at CrossFit Akeso treated me like I'd been a member for years! Big thanks to the 5:15 am class for the hospitality. Definitely coming back next time I'm in Des Moines.

I dropped into Akeso when out of town. The community was welcoming and upbeat. I was also happy to seee that everything was really clean. On top of all of that, the coaching was great - very attentive. I would definitely recommend Akeso to anyone looking to get started with a fitness routine or just looking to get a new change of pace from their regular routine.

I always get nervous when traveling to a box out of town, because well, it's not what I'm used to. From the second I walked into this box I knew everything was going to be fine, the people welcomed me right away, the box was clean and well organized, and I had no confusion about what the workout was .

Another thing about stopping in at a random box, sometimes people will have their own cliques and be hesitant to cheer you on during the work out, this was not a problem here, I felt like I was at home at my own box!

Traveling? Definitely stop in here. Looking to join a box? This would be a fun one to join!

I visit Akeso when I'm in town for work. The owners are friendly, the coaching is really solid, the facility is nice, and the community is tight-knit. Definitely a good place for a drop in, or for long term membership.

Great box all coaches are amazing, helpful, and know there stuff from weight lifting to programing and nutrition they are all qualified for these very well! Would recommend this box to any one who wants to work hard and change them self for the better. A nice bonus is its like a gym family here everyone is supportive and helps each other succeed on there goals.
