Food is fuel, culture and enjoyment.
How you eat should fuel you to perform at the gym, home and at work – not restrict you. Our nutrition coaching will tailor a plan to you and your goals, no fad diets, juice cleanses or any other extreme calorie restrictive diets.Our goal is to find a sustainable way to reach your body composition goals, while still enjoying the good stuff, having soul-warming meals with friends and family, and not feeling guilty about it.
- No strict diets, just healthy and sustainable habits
- Learn how to structure better meals without taking the enjoyment out of eating
- Take your performance to the next level
- Weekly check-ins from your nutrition coach to help you stay accountable
We're here to simplify, empower and guide you on your health journey.
Intermittent fasting, keto, paleo, vegan,, zone, Atkins, and on and on. Wave after wave of new diets and what is the “right” way to eat. So much so that the information we see on social media is no longer helpful but just plain confusing and overwhelming.
Now, we’re not saying diets are bad, but they are still diets. And what we hear when someone says “diet” is that you need to overhaul your life on day one and set “rules” for what you can and cannot eat. It’s their way or the highway. The problem with that is, firstly, that everyone is unique—your body type, your goals, your preferences, your budget, your relationship with food, and your time. Secondly, for anything to work, it needs to be sustainable. How many times have you started a diet only for it to last a few weeks?

Willow Way Brooklyn, The Coaches and the community is just something else. The team has done one exceptional job transforming this box into a place where you want to be.

Tanna Edmunds
I’ve been a member at Willow Way Fitness for a couple of months and I absolutely love it. Coaches are always professional and I always feel super welcomed and comfortable. It’s great because other members encourage one another to finish strong every time. Best training facility in my opinion.
Sloane Munro
The trainers are knowledgeable, supportive, and always willing to help you achieve your fitness goals. The family/community aspect of Willow Way is also amazing – everyone is genuinely interested in each other’s progress and there’s a real sense of camaraderie. I’ve never been a functional fitness enthusiast before, but Willow Way Centurion has completely changed my mindset and introduced me to a new level of fitness. I feel stronger, more confident, and more energized since I started. If you’re looking for a challenging, but rewarding workout experience, definitely give Willow Way Centurion a try!”

BEST HOUR OF MY DAY – EVERY DAY!
There is nowhere like Willow Way Fitness. If you are reading this and wondering whether you should join us, the answer is yes! You will never look back, you will only wish you had signed up sooner.
Rozanne du Toit
The good :
- great facility and equipment
- good hygiene protocols in place
- high quality, very professional coaching
- a really supportive and uplifting community
- suitable and challenging for any fitness level
- always an unbelievable workout and “pick me up”
- plenty additional options for training enhancement (mobility classes, sports massage, running club, personal training)
The bad: highly addictive – you will never be able to train anywhere else 🙂
Nadine Nel
I’ve always tried to exercise and train throughout my life, but I never had the proper motivation to stay committed.
Since joining Willow Way, it has been so easy to stay committed and train. Going to the gym now is very convenient and part of my routine, and the results quickly showed. I’m now in the best shape of my life. My morning sessions set me up for the rest of the day and keep me motivated throughout the day.
My fitness level has also drastically increased, and I have much more energy to enjoy all the other parts of my life and hobbies, like entertaining my kids with whatever they ask of me and even putting together a solid round of golf without deteriorating towards the end like I used to do. Although my fitness level is at its best that it has ever been in my adult life, I’m still motivated by the coaches and myself to work and push harder to increase this level. It’s so much fun to actually see the results and general improvement, and I’m very excited about my life and the journey ahead.
Gerhard Koekemoer
The owner, coaches and staff at Willow Way Fitness are amazing, friendly and very professional, even with all levels of lockdown they have gone above and beyond for us to continue exercising!
Our 8 year old son loves Willow Way Kids we can highly recommend these classes for your children.
Sylvia Stobbart
This place has changed my life. The professionalism of the coaching staff, combined with their friendly and open nature, make for a an awesome experience. Every. Single. Day.
Justin Austin
Going to the gym at Willow Way Atterbury is the best start to my day; it really gets me going. The facilities are awesome – always neat and clean. It’s a great feeling to know that I’ll be arriving at the gym to train with like-minded people and be trained by coaches who want more from life, but who also want to help us as members improve and we have fun while doing it.
When I first started at Willow Way, I was very overweight, weighing 140kg. But with their help, I lost around 40kg. They have been with me through thick and thin, helping me not only improve my physical appearance but also gain confidence in my abilities and what I can do inside and outside of the gym. I can’t wait to see what’s next.
Terrence Viviers
Top quality facilities, equipment and workouts. The coaches are excellent and made me feel part of the community from the very start. They accommodate for all fitness levels and offer personalized support and motivation during training sessions. Thanks to Willow Way Brooklyn, I am able to reach my fitness goals like never before while also having fun and meeting new friends. 10/10, would highly recommend!
Sonika van der Riet
I started my health journey in 2020. Taking my health seriously had never been a priority for me; it was always easier to ignore. However, I realized that my decision to ignore it would eventually have consequences for the people I care about, such as my wife and sons. Not being able to be active and live a full life was always just an excuse for me, but I didn’t want my sons to have me as a role model at that stage. So, I took responsibility and started my journey.
In 2020, I joined Willow Way to assist in speeding up my weight loss. I gained much more than I could have ever imagined. Unintentionally, I made great friends who motivate me to continually be a better version of myself. I have been a member since the first day Willow Way Atterbury opened their doors, and I can honestly say it feels like an extension of my home. The coaches are great and have become friends, and the staff and coaches are authentic and real. Knowing and trusting them has allowed me to consistently improve throughout my time there. Just consistently showing up to the classes was effectively all it took to improve my health in the long run. Without sounding like a “fat loss” commercial, I am really able to live an active life and I am one step closer to being a better person and role model to the people I care about.
Tinus Meyer
At Willow Way Brooklyn the pursuit of fitness is both fun and challenging. Everyone fit or unfit has a place in this gym. Every class attended is an opportunity to learn something new from the team of dedicated and highly professional coaches. Try it.
Mapaseka Weimer
Upon moving to Pretoria I tried out a couple of CrossFit boxes before deciding to join Willow Way. With a few years of experience in other countries, I’ve visited quite a few boxes. They are by far the most organized, welcoming and friendly one, with the most attentive coaching. Most classes will have two coaches for high quality feedback. Yoga, kids/teen CrossFit, a nutritionist, lots to offer. It’s a large gym with a lot of members (largest number of entries to the Open of any box in Africa and in the top ten globally) but you never feel lost in a crowd or faceless. Nimble to continue to provide options for workouts, even during lockdown phases.
Amy Galigan
I was one of the very first members who joined Willow Way Centurion and 2 years later, Willow Way has become a vital part of my daily routine. Their consistency in coaches, workouts and facilities are impeccable. From one-on-one sessions in the 6AM class to an amazing community of friends, it’s been and is an amazing journey!
Lendl Vermeulen
Willow Way Lynnwood, what a phenomenal community. Finding your feet in a new area can be challenging but with the welcoming support of the Willow Way Team, its effortless! Willow Way is the place to be. From the exceptional communication skills from both admin and coaches all the way to the professionalism in every training session.
Thank you to the Willow Way team! Highly Recommended.
Catherine van Wyk
After living a sedentary lifestyle my entire adult life, it wasn’t easy deciding to start exercising. However, from the day I walked into Willow Way Atterbury, my apprehensiveness, level of fitness, and skill level were all considered. The friendly coaches guided me through difficult routines and also encouraged me to take on challenges. They patiently answered my many questions.
Initially, my plan was to exercise at least three times a week. Now, I feel disappointed if I don’t attend classes six days a week. Willow Way Fitness is about more than just exercising. It’s about new friends and personalities, the banter before class, the breathlessness after class, Saturday morning coffee, and the never-ending goal to try just a little harder every time you walk into the gym.
My awkwardness has grown into confidence; what was stiff became supple, and what was immovably heavy yesterday is the warm-up weight of today. Willow Way Atterbury has made me fitter, stronger, and happier than I have ever been in a very long time.”
Barry Bateman
Willow Way Brooklyn is a fabulous gym with great people and great workouts! The coaches are so welcoming, explain the movements well and are helpful with adjustments for those of us who aren’t super fit (yet) or who aren’t comfortable with some of the equipment. The intro month is great to give it a try before committing to a contract, and there are many contract options to choose from. Highly recommend.
Krissy Close
Really enjoying being part of the gym. Willow Way Brooklyn has a great team of coaches along with well worked out all round programming that keeps you coming back for more.
Great job team. 💪
Jarred Paddey
I have been a member for 12 months and previously belonged to a gym for a number of years. Willow Way is not just a training facility but a way of life and a family. Everybody is treated with the greatest respect and the trainers shows real interest in everybody! The trainers are very professional and their knowledge of the highest standard. I will never see the inside of a gym again because of the value that they add, where do you have a personal trainer assisting all the time whilst training? This does not even include all the friends I have made.
