This is place to be at. I love how they treat you as part of the family. Everyone here is family. When you come to this place, you won’t feel intimidated because everyone is there to help you. JULIE and her staff are so friendly and is looking out for your best interest. Thank you Camp Rhino for always taking care of us.

I started at Camp Rhino in March and it’s one of the best decisions I’ve made. The community is fantastic and the coaching staff is knowledgeable. We have an amazing facility and classes available, from Crossfit to Obstacle course racing. I have found a home here and am so glad that I have!

I started here in April and haven’t regretted it at all! I had taken a couple CrossFit classes before, but just wasn’t convinced until I came to Camp Rhino. Many of the CrossFit movements are very technical and, if you’re not using the correct form, you could be wasting your time and, even worse, get injured. The trainers are all very helpful and not only want you to succeed, but do it the right way.

I started doing Crossfit in January of this year and it completely changed my life. Camp Rhino has multiple classes through out the day that I can easily fit into my schedule. On top of that, there are different trainers but each one of them have their own unique ways to help teach proper form and are all very encouraging. Also, no matter what class I take, everyone is super supportive and eager to cheer on one another to the finish!
There is also a 6 week challenege that I have been on since this Jan and through that I learned to fuel my body and my performance in Crossfit has changed dramatically because of it.
There is much more to be offered at this gym as well. There is Obstacle Course training and Bootcamp classes in Camp Rhino as well so pick your obsession and give all you’ve got!

Awesome. Best workout ever. Now if only they had an 830 crossfit class I would be at work by 10.

This box is great. Usually really uneasy doing a drop-​in (because I still stink at crossfit) but they were really friendly. Gal at the front desk was sweet and helpful. Jathen was the coach and did a great job. Tough WOD, felt great. Thanks.

The class I signed up for online was titled Weightlifting and Barbell Club. What I expected and what I got were totally different and I’m okay with that. My purpose in signing up was to learn more about traditional lifts, proper form and technique. When I arrived I found out this two hour class is really more members working on their own. John, the instructor is really there to assist them with whatever they need. This is where I consider myself lucky. John sat down with me for a bit to go over what I was interested in, my experience and my goals. After that he had me warm up for about five minutes on the rower and then that’s where my one one one begin. John was super patient and great in breaking down technique step by step. We worked on the clean and the snatch mostly. He’s full of knowledge and explained the background principles for why the exercises are done the way they are. During our conversation I had said I had tried crossfit three times and I didn’t think it was for me but he suggested I try his class and I definitely plan on checking it out.
I had experience with Camp Rhino boot camps and I participated in the 100 Obstacle challenge earlier this year. Their employees and other members are consistently encouraging and friendly. Definitely check out this facility. There is something for everybody!

This place is truly awesome. I enjoyed every single day, especially boot camp on Mondays! The price is steep, but you do get a lot for you money. The customer service is great, no contract, and the facility is clean.

Rhino Crossfit is awesome!!! Great energy and lots of equipment. Everyone is always encouraging and willing to answer any questions that you have.

Where do I start with this unorganized crossfit gym? I heard from people that Rhino Crossfit has poorly ran competitions before but this has to be the WORST. Rhino Crossfit recently held a 2 day competition at the 2015 Mr. Olympia. Day 1 of the comp was just a little unorganized. 2day?! WTH. I tried speaking to Julie (I think the owner) about a few comp rules. She replied with «you didn’t read the website?» Ok, I read the website and got my answers. The competition was supposed to end at 3pm with awards starting at 3:30pm. When her crossfit superstars hadn’t completed all the events by 3pm she pushed back the deadline to complete all the events by 3:30pm. At 3:30 when they STILL hadn’t completed all the events?! Yup, you guessed it. She pushed the deadline back again.(THEY HAD 2DAYS) 4:45pm rolls around for awards and surprise surprise her crossfit boys that got an extra 45 mins to complete everything take 1^st and 2^nd in the competition. I must have made Julie pretty mad bc when time to award a 3^rd place champ they «messed up» the score and gave 3^rd to a local crossfit gym owner (Billy). After arguing for 30 mins and asking over and over to recheck the scores they did. Local crossfit fit owner Billy didn’t actually take 3^rd place, I did! Julie tried saving face in front of the crowd by getting on the load speaker saying she’d «come out of her own pocket and pay the prize money for 3^rd» but made ZERO attempt was made to and ask me for an email, home address or phone number to pay me the money. When the event was over I tried to find Julie to maybe give her some kind of info. All the rhino crossfit employees were cleaning up, but Julie was no where to be found. I’m perfectly fine with placing in my respected rank, but when you flat out break the rules and potentially cost me $ 1000 plus dollars in prize money, of course I’m going to be a little upset! A unprofessional and unorganized gym Julie is running.

Great people, great facilities, ninja warrior obstacles, instructor’s are very helpful. Only problem I had was the music. Not sure how anyone can workout to the horrible selection they have. Seemed like the same songs played over and over, nothing at all to get hype to.

This was the hardest 4 weeks ever! I loved it! I was pushed hard and the workouts were creative.
Minimal reinforcement given so if you need a lot of warm fuzzy dont go. If your determined and a self starter then this is for you!

Loved visiting this place three times in my three days in Vegas. I did the «murph challenge» and it was a sweat out burn in with a friendly crowd of different levels. Try and you shall succeed.
On day two they were doing a memorial day timed Murph Challenge so the coach/​instructor catered a custom work out so I could have some variety after the run. Hundred pull ups burnt me out on day 1.
Day three I did an outdoor bootcamp hosted by Camp Rhino in another part of town. It was great to do bear crawls and burpees in the grass on a nice mild LV day. Again more running around the park and some nice core stuff to end.
Forget the buffets (well undo some of the damage) and hit the black rhino. Only downside is that you really do need a car to get there which may be a obstacle for a tourist or biz traveler but its a great way to see some more normal off-​strip life.

This place is amazing — boot camp, crossfit and obstacles. Their ads are correct — you won’t be bored working out there. I like the family atmosphere this place has, and the instructors know just how much to push you. If it wasn’t for Camp Rhino, I probably wouldn’t have done as many obstacle course races as I have. In this era of big box gyms, it is nice to find a gym that is totally unique.

Very friendly group of staff, and everyone is willing to give you useful advice. I was particularly glad that it didn’t feel like a stereotypical cross fit gym as that isn’t really for me and I only used this place for Spartan training. Corey is fantastic when it comes to technique. I probably only ended up having 3 or 4 sessions with him before my race, but when I was easily getting over the large walls in Spartan and there were several people twice my height struggling, it made me realize how good he was at teaching technique, so thanks Corey! I’ll be back before the next race!

I purchased a groupon-​priced two month membership from Camp Rhino in late October. I went to three sessions and on the third, strained my arms (wrists to elbows) so badly that I never went back and am still recovering. The evening session when this happened was called Beginner CrossFit, but it didn’t seem to really be for beginners. I didn’t get the sense that the instructor was overly watchful or concerned with those of us who were new. The first workout included flipping over tires — I’ve never done this. I asked if there was a specific way to do it. The instructor replied something to the effect of — you just flip it. That was it…
While I’m not new to working out, I’d never done CrossFit and wasn’t used to trying to do things in a certain amount of time. The last workout that day included pulling yourself up and lowering yourself to the ground with a rope — this is where I strained my arms. With the time pressure, I wasn’t aware that my arms were way maxed out. I feel like this is something a CrossFit instructor should know and should make sure that the beginners slow down to be aware of how they’re feeling. I could barely grip my toothbrush the next day. It wasn’t normal muscle soreness but pain. I went to a doctor and have been taking Ibuprofen daily for almost two months now. My wrists to elbows still aren’t back to normal. If I even type a lot during the day, I can feel that they’re still strained. I’ve been training for a 10k now and doing exercises that don’t require weights or arms to get around not being able to use my arms.
I really wanted to like CrossFit. I was really excited to try it. I liked working out in a group and the space they have is amazing. But, I did not have a good experience and I think beginners should definitely be cautious.

Coming from someone who HATED going to the gym, there aren’t enough words to express my love for this place. I have felt like a part of the team since the moment I walked in the door. I have been going 5+ days a week & sometimes twice a day. They accommodate any experience or skill level & have you pushing yourself beyond your imagination.
Do yourself a favor, try a class. It’ll only hurt in the good way.

If you want to gain strength, mobility and ease in all areas of your life, this is the gym for you! Super knowledgeable instructors and fantastically supportive members make it an awesome place to be. I should know, I joined last year and have been going ever since. LOVE IT!

Awesome place! I started CrossFit in mid-​July with basically no previous experience. The coaches/​instructors are great, and have been very patient with my ‘newness!’ They help you learn the correct way to lift weights, etc. I have a long ways to go, but I’m already doing things I never dreamed I could do. You are cheered on every step of the way. Great group of people to learn from and learn with.

Amazing cross fit facility with an obstacle course that would rival that of American Ninja Warrior.

I love it here! Boot Camp, CrossFit, and Ninja Warrior Obstacles!!! Never be bored working out!!! Even when you conquer one obstacle there is always another that you haven’t done yet!

Really great place to get fit and wonderful instructors. They make getting fit fun and you can tell they actually care about you.

Sure, Camp Rhino is a little pricey, but they offer what very few gyms in Vegas can — An amazing obstacle course. Additionally, one of the keys here is that the people are just amazingly friendly and are passionate about fitness. I think the majority of people come here for crossfit, but I enjoy just doing stuff on my own. Climbing a wall 20 times in a row isn’t easy!
Seeing some of the things that people can do here amazes. While I’ve seen stuff like the salmon ladder and the fingertip cliffhangers on tv, it’s another thing to try and attempt those things. A lot of it is technique, but a lot of it is training muscles that you don’t even think about.

This place definitely has enough to keep you from ever getting bored working out. The staff here is very passionate about what they do, creating a fun and high energy environment centered around teamwork that is contagious. No matter what your age, size, weight, or skill is– be prepared to slap a whole lot of high fives on your road towards seeing positive results!
I love this place

I have been attending Camp Rhino now for about 2.5 months 3 – 5 days per week. I can’t say enough positive things. This is not a collection of treadmills and exercise bikes, this is a camaraderie, a culture, a true community. Everyone is committed to themselves as well as you. I am by no means a fit or slim, athlete type. My first class I was riddled with, what began as panic and quickly manifested into complete fatigue. I have continued to show up and it has altered my perspective on myself as well as my fitness level. 2.5 months in only 2 pounds lost but down three clothing sizes, what does that say? If you are looking to change your lifestyle this is the place! This is a playground for adults!

This place really could be a great tourist destination. It’s very close to the airport (and therefore close to the strip) and it’s a blast: If you’re athletic and up for some amazing challenges.
We, of course, went for the Ninja Warrior inspired obstacles. Holy… crap. Just standing below the Warped Wall in real life gave me new respect for the contestants on that show. No, I didn’t come close to making it. And the salmon ladder is terrifying but very fun to try. My friend actually succeeded at the Spider Climb!
They also have Rhino, Tough Mudder and Spartan inspired obstacles, which were actually doable for us mere mortals as well as standard Crossfit equipment with the addition of a lot of climbing ropes (they have a very high ceiling.)
If you’re a Ninja Warrior fan this is a perfect Vegas stop. I just wish they had more side by side races and more clearly marked courses (the very cool employee had to show use some courses which were mixed in with workout equipment.)
This is a great distraction if you’re got an hour to kill in Vegas, are tired of drinking, and have ever shouted at the TV «I could totally do that!»
UPDATE: Someone from Camp Rhino just messaged me and said they’re going to add some side by side obstacle course races… and add a stop button so you can time your runs through the obstacle course. Awesome!

Great gym, with an easy going staff. Best set up for lifting in Las Vegas, with a full bumper plate set and plenty of space. Also has goodies like sleds, tires, GHD and obstacles. I never really did the obstacles, but the bumper plates were what I signed up for.
When my work schedule changed and I couldn’t make it in anymore, they were really cool about canceling my membership. (Something rare in my experience at gyms)
