All the coaches are super nice and helpful and keep me accountable. I always learn something new and enjoy trying the different classes. It gets your foot in the door for martial arts and coached exercise, and it’s great to meet other people too.
Fantastic gym! One of the best decisions I have made joining New World Defense & Fitness. Super clean, great positive environment, super friendly people, and great price!
Love the classes here! Everyone is very friendly and helpful.
I’ve been going for a while now and I can say that the place is always clean and welcoming to walk into, and the people are very very kind and they will always help you learn how to make sure you’re doing everything right.
What a great find! The combination of all the choices you have and the people that coach the classes are fantastic! If you have ever thought about getting in shape and learning how to defend yourself at the same, this is the place.
Great place with awesome staff. The help making different styles of martial art is amazing, great way to get out and get exercise perfect low impact good for the body mind and soul. Definitely recommend.
Super clean gym, they clean up after every class (I’ve been to some places that do it at the end of the day-maybe) These people really care about their facilities and their clients 🫧
This was easily the best choice I have ever made for myself. While training and learning real life skills the atmosphere and culture is everything I have been looking for in a gym. Will always highly recommend
Very friendly, and clean organized. Great spot.
It was a really good time. The gym is amazing and full of kind people. Very professional. A true, well-rounded program with great leadership. Thanks for having me.
I love New World! The coaches and students are all amazing and they are a great community. From day one I felt welcomed and encouraged by all. Icing on the cake is the confidence I’ve built knowing if the time ever came I know how to defend myself.
This was my first time trying any martial arts activities and my experience so far has been amazing! I am not a naturally active person but my time with New World is an exception. I absolutely love all the classes offered. The environment is extremely welcoming and the coaches do a great job at teaching people from all levels.

I danced around walking inside this gym for a year before I made it in the door. Not only are the owners & coaches phenomenal human beings , the members are just as amazing. It’s an environment of challenge, encouragement & inspiration. I truly believe it’s one of the healthiest and happiest decisions I’ve ever made for ME. Grateful & honored to be part of my New World Defense “ Fit Fam “
The best gym in Fort Myers! The best instructors and life long friends are made here!
By far the best gym in the area!
Best gym in Fort Myers! Great for all ages and skill levels! I began training here 2 months ago and mainly focus on Jiu-Jitsu training.

Stop in for a trial class and see just how quick you become hooked! Less
I was a bit intimidated as a beginner but everyone is super friendly and helpful. Really looking forward to going back!

I always look forward to going to New World. Everyone is welcoming and cool and the classes are fun. No complaints
The staff and instructors are phenomenal and always willing to help the students learn while being safe
Not your average fitness center. The crew and coaches running the sessions make you feel welcomed and the rest of the members are friendly.
Great place to workout, everyone’s supportive and helpful. They have consistent classes and great teachers. Nice and clean facility. Would recommend.
Ever since I joined I feel like I have a second family that when I think im done they push me further

Finding a workout that fits you is important, finding the right gym is essential. New World is more than just a gym, it's family. Beginner, Novice, Advanced will all find their place here. Coaches and training partners all have a vested interest in your success. Leave your ego at the door, stay committed, watch your progress sore! Love it here !!
What a GREAT facility. The staff is absolutely knowledgeable, and the culture is what anyone would want at a gym. You are truly made to feel welcomed genuinely. I would recommend New World to anyone looking to train and better themselves. TOP NOTCH.

They do offer me to barrow some! What was Nice, the front desk lady was very nice I have to said extremely nice. I fell back for her she don’t even know the price for 1:1 class..:. I guess another gym with false publicity! Less
Leah is an amazing coach! Made me feel very comfortable. Highly recommend!

It’s my first time boxing, my experience so far has been great.

The environment is very clean, the mats and pads are wiped down after every class, which isn't true in all fight gyms. I very much appreciate the dedication to cleanliness. If you're shopping around for gyms, I highly recommend stopping in for a class and see why this is the best gym in Fort Myers! Less
Great gym, super nice and knowledgeable staff. I recommend it highly!
Great workouts and supportive coaches. The culture is friendly and interactive while practicing self defense. The coaches take an interest in every student and encourage students to help each other. The gym is immaculate. The mats and equipment are cleaned and sanitized after each class.
Love this place!!!
10/10 would recommend. The team at New world are great instructors with an awesome facility.
It is the best place you can visit 👏🏼👏🏼
Great experience overall and a great team that dedicates everyone to gain more experience with real world scenarios.

5 stars to NWDF! I have been training for almost 3 months and I am enjoying all the classes. Great gym and coaches!
I just finished a phenomenal class at New World Defense & Fitness. Not only were we physically challenged and trained, but mentally as well. I'm still unpacking all that was taught! Great place with world class instrutructors!
Wow! New World Defense & Fitness did a special class for a group of us. It was incredible! Real world training with world class instrutructors! They challenged us in our physical AND mental fitness! I'm still unpacking all that was shared and presented.
We were invited to take a class at New World. (imho) Juan and his staff are “subject matter experts” when it comes to unarmed self defense! They are safety conscious and professional all the way! Highly recommend!
Awesome training with awesome instructors! Highly recommend!
Great place to get fit. They run it family style I would recommend it to anyone

In todays world there are just a few select places where you can find great quality. Integrity and true craftsmanship are hard to come by. At New World Defense I not just found all that but a great mentor in Coach Juan Acosta and exceptional friendships. Juan and New World Defense has truly changed my concept in workout and lifestyle. I love this place.
Awesome place to train, Staff goes above and beyond to meet all my expectations THANKS

Nice experience! Both, place and coaches. Thanks!

My daughter and I joined this gym to learn Krav before she went to college. That way she could gouge the eyes out of some pos if it came to that! Anyway, we both enjoyed it, learning a lot and got to meet some really good people. Great atmosphere and tough workouts.

I was looking for a community when I joined New World and found so much more. Exceptional inclusive culture, incredible coaches, and so many different classes to get excited about. My only regret is not signing up sooner!
It’s never easy to find a new gym. New World Defense and Fitness has exceeded my expectations! Excellent gym, super talented instructors and a very welcoming crowd. Supper supportive, lots of different ages and body types, I can only highly recommend :-)

Great place to change your life with fitness. Family atmosphere. Positive environment.
The best gym in Fort Myers. The only place offering a superb variety of disciplines, including crossfit, Krav Maga, boxing, kickboxing, jiu-jitsu, and weight lifting. The coaches are outstanding and supportive. New World is my happy place in SWFL.

The trainers are all super nice and knowledgeable about what they’re teaching, the owners Juan and Alexis are also awesome! They have lots to offer, super clean, great & fair pricing. Doesn’t get much better than this 😊 Less
Amazing people 😎Great coaches - super knowledgeable. You learn so much about how to move in these classes, both in terms of weight lifting but also in terms of gymnastics. It's definitely a great place to reach anyone's fitness goals.
Absolute best gym in SWFL. I went from not being able to do even three push ups to being a daily participant n cross fit. The coaches are just some of the genuine, best people in the world. They will save your life. They did mine.
Good people here. Juan & Alexis provide such a diverse selection of fitness options you have to check it out. There is something for you to help you hit your goals. ✌️
NWDF is flat-out one of the best activities you can implement into your life. It's not just about fitness or self defense, though those are very important things to value, but the community that has been built here is nothing short of astonishing. Do not be afraid even if it is your first time, I promise you will feel welcomed and it is a great experience
Phenomenal coaching with a variety of disciplines to choose from. The camaraderie amongst the members is awesome! All around great place to get physically fit and learn skills that you can carry with you for the rest of your life!
Great gym! The owners, trainers & people who are members are all so cool & nice! Had my first boxing session on Saturday & everyone was so welcoming! I knew I had to sign up! 10/10 recommend this gym!
I have loved being a part of the family at New World Defence & Fitness. They are all very welcoming, no matter what level of fitness you're at. I look forward to going every week, it is my release of the week/days stresses. I love it!!!
great people! wide variety of work out classes from crossfit to kick boxing to Olympic weightlifting.
This is great gym for those who are looking to get back in shape and have fun. I was always skeptical about crossfit, but after attending Coach Juan's class, I was hooked. I will never make fun of Crossfitters again. If you are looking for morning classes, look no further. Try Coach Will's 7AM kick boxing or the 6 AM crossfit.

Love the family environment/ experience you get every time you step into the gym. You feel the coaches and everyone here cares, that’s something that’s missing from a lot of gyms… but not New World Defense & Fitness!
Been going for 5+ years awesome environment and trainers 🥊
New World is a great gym highly recommend there very welcoming and they do a great job and pushing you to be better and it's just a fun place to come and workout with great coaches and people.
I'd recommend this facility any day of the week! You will get some top notch training, and learn real world skills. Definitely check them out!
Love this gym so much. The quality of instruction is superior, the community is warm and close and the quantity/variety of classes is unsurpassed, all at a great price.

Best CrossFit gym in Fort Myers! Excellent class and trainers!
My family and I joined last year. We have all truly enjoyed our membership. The location is convenient and they provide a wide variety of classes. The scheduled times are good. Boxing and kickboxing taught by Will is fun. The CrossFit classes taught by Jennifer, Alexis, and Juan are excellent too.
I love New World! The trainers here are great, especially Will who teaches boxing and kickboxing, and they really care about your progress and fitness journey. It’s a great place to workout and learn new self defense skills.
NWDF is an awesome gym! I went for around 6 months and only left because I moved. I learned so much while I was there. Everyone was so nice and patient with me while I learned CrossFit. Juan is an excellent trainer. On the other side I had the best time boxing. Will is one of kind! So easy to talk to and learn from. I would recommend this gym to anyone and at any skill level!
New World has created an amazing atmosphere for everyone. Educated trainers, some of the best equipment and various class options to meet my crazy schedule. I’ve never felt more confident about reaching my goals.
New World is a life changer! Absolutely awesome coaching and very knowledgeable. Not only do they have Crossfit but boxing and Krav as well! Definitely check it out you will not be sorry!!!
Wouldn't go anywhere else. Trainers are excellent and knowledgable . Many opportunities for a variety of activities. Welcoming family atmospere.

Love this gym. I was intimidated at first but everyone is so friendly and cares more about your safety (form) etc than anyplace I’ve been. Coach Jaun is great, as are Will and Alexis. Give them a try, you won’t be disappointed!
Great coaches, great programs, and lots of fun!
Great atmosphere and coaching. Family vibe, supportive partners. I'd recommend to anyone!
Great facility, even better coaches. Real self-defense with a family atmosphere. Highly recommended!
Awesome people! Top notch training!

Awesome place been here for 5 years!
Best gym I’ve ever been a member of. Terrific trainers, classes are top notch.
Dropped in for the week while on vacation in Fort Myers. Great facility, coaches and community!
I love working out at New World. I have never felt comfortable going to a gym. I joined NWDF and immediately they became a family. I love the coaches, members, workouts and my overall fitness journey! If you need a new gym - you found your place!
This gym has given me the self confidence I've been searching for, and has changed my life for the better. I've made some great friendships that I believe will last the rest of my life. This is the best gym in Fort Myers!

Coming to New World has helped me mentally, emotionally and physically. Continuous positive support and direction from coaches and class mates. They created a a safe and comfortable place where people can become their best selves at their own pace. I love my gym 🖤
This place is Amazing! The owners, coaches, and members are all there to help you meet your goals. I can't say enough great things about them.
New World has a diverse offering of classes from self defense to CrossFit. They have good equipment and solid programming for any cross fitter. Good people and good coaches.
I had never taken a boxing class, Krav Maga or a cross fit class. After starting here I have taken each and enjoy all of them and the people that attend. I am so happy my sis found this place.
I love this place! get fit, make friends, eat , sleep, repeat.
I love NWDF because you can come in at any level and learn cool stuff.

An awesome area where you can learn different martial arts and on the other side do CrossFit/weightlifting/or Olympic lifting! What more can you ask for?! The people are awesome and friendly and you will feel welcomed immediately
I enjoy coming to New World because they offer a variety of classes throughout the week. I have tried almost all of the classes and have enjoyed each one. The instructors are well informed and encouraging. They have made me enjoy working out!

Any time I visit Ft. Myers, this is where I will come to lift. Great space. The owners are welcoming and accomodating. Five stars
I love this gym! The owners are the BEST in southwest Florida. If you love an active lifestyle—you HAVE to come here!
Such an amazing gym! Everyone there is so helpful and encouraging. I originally went to just box but am going to start other classes as well! The hour long class goes by so fast and you feel so strong and accomplished afterward. Coach Will is one of the best trainers I've ever met, he pushes you while at the same allows your own pace. #WillForPresident
That was an amazing workout! Coach Will did a great job keeping the class motivated while keeping correct form!!!!
The coaches are knowledgeable and supportive. I struggle through the workouts but everyone is very encouraging. I highly recommend New World to anyone regardless of current fitness level.
5 months in and this place has been the most effective in weight lost and self defense! The coaches are so helpful and very friendly and they make you feel welcomed, definitely recommend this place especially for beginners!
Great coaches and classes!

My wife and I CrossFit 4-6 days/week. We were traveling from WI and decided to try out there Krav Maga class for beginners. It was an awesome atmosphere for learning and it was an awesome workout! Alexis is an amazing coach! I would recommend stopping in and trying something new and/or sticking with your CrossFit workouts.
The best decision I've ever made! Great workout, such an esteem-builder, amazing coaches and the best place to meet like minded friends! Try Krav once and you'll be HOOKED! #I�NWDF
You give Erica the happiness she needs!!!!!! And you push her hard when she needs to be pushed!!!!
I <3 New World Krav Maga!! Coming from traditional martial arts; Krav Maga was a shock to me but with the best coaches in Florida I soon got past that.
Krav Maga is one of the most realistic forms of self defense that everyone in today's society should learn! Not to mention, one awesome workout!

One of the best gyms in the U.S.! Juan and Alexis know their stuff!
Nice gym, friendly people, great workout....
Best gym! Fantastic coaches with friendly, motivating atmosphere. Be careful though, you may get addicted to exercising!
New world runs a top notch CF / Defense establishment. Safety and your well being is # 1 and then pushing your limits is a close 2nd. The husband and wife team are what really sets this gym apart from other CF gyms out there. They get to know each member, understand your workout goals and help you overachieve them. I would recommend them to anyone regardless of their current fitness level.
Easily, best in SW Florida. Coaches are excellent.
Come by once. If you don't resonate with these exceptional people and their ability to improve your health, then by all means, look elsewhere. My bet though, is that you'll love it and your health and emotional well being will both benefit. It is a welcoming atmosphere and genuine folks are the members here.
NWDF is such a great gym! Great atmosphere, great people, awesome classes. I love it!
Exceptional people run this place. Your health is the most important thing and you cannot go wrong joining New World.
As a visiting crossfitter the gym is very welcoming, great coaches.
Easily the best gym I have been to! It's worth the price
This is such a an amazing place. It is so much more than a gym. Amazing coaches, great members and awesome classes!
Great Crossfit gym! Very motivating group and knowledgable coaches. I've lost over 50lbs in the last year with these guys. Highly recommend !
Juan is great! Very relaxed with friendly athletes!
No better place to get fit or learn self defense techniques. Everybody is absolutely wonderful, friendly, and amazingly helpful, from the coaches and trainers down to the other people in classes with you. I'm only upset that I didn't start coming here sooner.
I have been going here for three days and feeling the pain like crazy. This gym will motivate you every step of the way from start to finish. They have a great group of adults that want to train and get fit and they are all willing to help you meet your goals to success.
Great Krav Maga and Crossfit classess!! the instructors are awesome!!

Florida Fit Factor - a really great place to go if you ever want to meet your angel, sweat angel that is. With F3 I took a very deep and intensive plunge into CrossFit and MMA for the length of about 2 months, completing more than 30 CMMA, Boxing, Krav Maga and CrossFit WoDs during that time. It is conveniently located between Airport, US41 and I-75. The equipment is extremely solid and great quality. But what is much more important than that is the staff of F3. Alexis, Ali, Juan, Fred and Will make an excellent team of coaches. While they are constantly and expertly checking on your form they never miss out on cheering and motivating the crowd. Although I had done some CrossFit workouts before but I was glad to take the F3 OnRamp program. It guarantees that you getting a better understanding of the matter and re-learning the basic movements. The workouts - no matter if boxing, krav, CMMA or CrossFit - have been designed with an incredible variety of exercises: tire flipping, speed ladder, heavy bag work, ball slams, suicide sprints, turkish get-ups, wall balls, deadlifts, squats, kettlebell swings, box jumps and so many more. If you are looking for intensive and varied workouts, fun and great coaching; look no further but check out Florida Fit Factory. Big Thanks to the F3 people again for a wonderful time. Less

Their dedicated coaches apply knowledge and experience to make you fitter, faster, and stronger. While I may suffer nightmares of Juan barking, “Keep your back straight,” and “Get those elbows up,” I know his singular focus is to ensure we use the proper techniques to do things the right way and avoid injury. His consistency instills confidence in all of us. I’m in the best shape of my life! I cherish and enjoy the daily sessions of sweat and pain. What surprised me more than anything is that I’ve met people that I now consider lifelong friends. I look forward to seeing them every morning and sharing these experiences. We spend equal time laughing as we do moaning and groaning. I love that every day is a different workout. Less
