About

We Rise By Lifting Others
It can often be intimidating to walk into a CrossFit box the first time. People and weights are flying around at sometimes breakneck speeds. Everyone seems to know exactly what they’re doing. That intimidation though quickly fades away as you look around and start to sense something different.

My son has been enjoying the teen class very much.Happy that Fortis added classes at 4pm. Which allows him to attend right after classesHe can complete his workout before dinner with enough time for homework. Thanks for making these 4pm classes available More...

The coaches are amazing - it doesn't matter if it's a full class or a class of only a few people - every single person gets one on one time with the coaches each and every class. They make sure that you have the tools to have a great work out. And more importantly, they are amazing people! Highly recommend this place! More...

I joined Fortis about 6 weeks ago and I'm absolutely thrilled that I did. All the coaches are so helpful, encouraging and friendly. I was honestly so intimidated by the whole "CrossFit Box" culture, as many people are, but there was really nothing to be nervous about. Everyone is so welcoming! It totally feels like I've found my "people". More...

I'll preface this by saying I've only dropped into a few classes while visiting relatives in Orleans at both the former and current location. This gym/ box is very clean, programming is what you'd expect (warmup - lift - wod), and coaching is excellent. In addition to this, the owner and staff have been very accomodating to allow me to drop in, and highly responsive through email correspondence. I wholeheartedly recommend this facility. More...

Teen fitness- coaches are nice and encouraging. Very motivating environment.
My teen not only lost weight that she was unable to lose in other programs but she also gained confidence and actually enjoys working out now.

Would highly recommend starting your fitness journey here. They have a number of classes that run throughout the day that accommodates all types of schedules. The team is very welcoming and a great atmosphere. Since becoming pregnant, I knew fitness was very important but they have helped me by providing safe and effective exercises. Great vibe and a great team! More...

I absolutely LOVE this gym! & their awesome coaches.

Since I started training in April I've lost 4.4LBs and 1.7% body fat. I have to put a plug in for my own services because I changed my diet at the same time, I'm actually eating more calories than when I stared my journey with Fortis.

My strength gains are through the roof. When I landed there my 1RM Deadlift was 180, I'm at 245# now, My Hang Clean was stuck at 65#, I cleaned 100# a couple of weeks ago!

i'm hooked

We did 2 drop ins while in Ottawa. Dan was so friendly and helpful! Amazing that there is no charge for members of another box to drop in! Came away with a tank top and will send one of ours from Temenos Athletics in Kelowna. If we lived in Ottawa this would be our box! ❤️ Jill, Nick and Penny were all fabulous at making us feel welcome! Thank you More...

Great box! I was visiting from out of the area and this gym’s patrons and coaches were extremely welcoming and helpful. I was also lucky enough to participate in a “barbells and bros. ” event and met some awesome people. I ended up dropping in as much as I could up to the day I left for home. Thanks CrossFit Fortis and well done! I shall be back! More...

The best physio therapy sessions I've ever had were with Crossfit fortis, particularly Elise Gervais. She is clearly well educated in this field and equally well suited for this work.

Fortis is what the Crossfit community is all about! I joined a few WODs while visiting the area and was so glad I did. I was met with a warm, welcoming smile by both Coaches Dan and Paula as well as other box members. Chitchat, encouragement, and post WOD high-fives were given quickly and freely. I was also SHOCKED in the VERY BEST way that as a paying member of another box, I could join the WODs at Fortis for no charge. I think this speaks volumes to the atmosphere, beliefs, and philosophies of Fortis. Can't wait to visit again. Cheers! More...
