About FirstPower
FirstPower CrossFit is a coached CrossFit box at the Waterfront in Karen, Nairobi. Every class here is led by a coach watching your form in real time, not a workout you're left to figure out on your own, whether it's your first day walking in or a competition prep block.
We run seven programs across the week: CrossFit, Hyrox, Olympic Lifting, Strength, Mobility, Masters, and CrossFit Teens. Each one is coached and scaled to whoever's in the room that day.
Members range from first-timers to competitive athletes, and include people training here for a week while visiting Nairobi alongside others who've been on the floor for years. In town short-term, for work, a posting, or as a visitor? Punchcards let you drop in without a long-term membership.

A real gym floor, not a franchise template
Full power rack rig, rope climbs, kettlebell wall, a proper Olympic lifting platform. Built to run a real class, not just look good in photos. The red rig and the pattern trim on the walls are the same ones you'll see when you walk in.

FirstPower runs its own annual community competition, Fittest in Nairobi, individuals only, plus other events through the year like FirstRox. If you're chasing a competition total and not just a workout, this is a box built for that too.
