Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:

“This place has truly changed my life. The coaches, the workouts, and the camaraderie of CrossFit Fringe are by far the best in Columbia. Not to mention, the brand new facility, which is centrally located near downtown Columbia, is top-notch. This place is more than a gym; the people here care about you and your wellbeing; CrossFit Fringe is a family.” – D.B.

It is because of excellent reviews like this that CrossFit Fringe is now able to call themselves a Top Rated Local award winner!

Not Your Average Fitness Center

We were excited to learn all about CrossFit Fringe and how they have gotten where they are today, so we sat down with the owner, Tyler.

CrossFit Fringe was one of the first 500 CrossFit affiliates in the world, and now, there are over 15,000! They will be celebrating their 11-year anniversary in July and have recently broken ground to double their facility size! They work hard to help their clients with all kinds of health-related needs, including nutrition, sleep habits, routine, exercise, and fitness. Tyler shared:

“It does not matter where you come from, our goal is to make healthy living as accessible as possible to all types of people.”

We also wanted to know about the CrossFit Fringe business mission. Tyler told us:

“Our mission is: one individual at a time. We know that CrossFit is not for every person, but it could be for every body. Whether your goal is to stay in shape, to keep up with your grandkids, or if you are trying to get to that next level as a college athlete, we are here for you.”

Building Success For Themselves and Others

CrossFit Fringe has earned a wonderful reputation, and Tyler told us that their success has been very based on word of mouth. He said that they also focus on having an authentic online presence.

There are many businesses out there that are looking to build as impressive a reputation as CrossFit Fringe has managed to. We asked if Tyler could share any expert advice with these companies. Here’s what he had to say:

“Be open; be honest, and tell a story. In the fitness business, our job is not to motivate, but to help find a way. Our members and our clients are the heroes of the story. The day you think you are the one creating their success, you will lose interest.”


Congratulations to CrossFit Fringe for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and special thanks to Tyler for taking the time to speak with us!
