    ICA may have looked empty a year ago, but I never noticed it because the community that started in that space always filled the whole room.

    Happy Birthday, ICA! I have no doubt you’ll continue to grow in the coming years!

    And congrats to John and Nikki! You guys worked so hard to make this a reality and there isn’t a day that I walk into that box without appreciating everything you do for us.

    Congratulations to John & Nikki for creating such an awesome community and family. Thank goodness for ICA, without John & Nikki, this gym and the folks who make up this community I wouldn’t have made as much progress as I have, you’ve all helped me become an athlete again and I can’t thank you guys enough for that. Happy Birthday to ICA and I wish you many more birthday’s, continued success and millions of blessings!!

    We just want to say thanks to all of YOU! We took a chance and opened the doors, but without you – our awesome, athletic, fun-loving, loyal members – it was just an empty box that echoed a lot (see the picture)! YOU have made ICA into the community and family it is today. We are so fortunate and thankful and we get to spend our “free time” doing what we love, at gym we love, with the best group of friends we could ask for!

    Why do I feel like one of my grandchildren is turning one?!?!?! Happy B’Day ICA!

    My favorite part of this space when it opened was coming in for a WOD and having Nikki and John decide who was going to do the workout with Sara and I, and who would do it before or after the class by themselves. Thanks for all the work you put into it, and doing all the WODs with us from the beginning!

    Happy Birthday ICA! So glad John and Nikki came to Phoenixville and started a great gym! John and Nikki have a created a great atmosphere at the gym for not just working out, but hanging out. Wings on friday nights rule! Thanks again guys for having an awesome gym!

  12. Mark

    Happy Birthday!

    Ummm…everyone pretty much summed it up so I will just say…

    “That’s what she said!”
    “That’s what he said!”

    Becomming a small business owner is extremely stressful, whether the business fails OR succeeds. But Nikki and John, you’ve both handled yourselves with such professionalism and grace, it’s hard to believe that you’ve only been doing this for one year. Happy Birthday ICA! And wishing you many, many more happy years to come!!

  14. Mike S.

    Happy Birthday! Great gym + Great people = Success!

  15. Christopher Chamberlain

    Happy Birthday ICA and congradulations Nikki And John on the first of many successful years!!! Without you guys I would probably never have tried Crossfit. Thanks again for everything.

  16. Joe

    I can’t believe it’s only one year….so much has happened in a short time. New friendships, unbelievable accomplishments, and physical and mental limits pushed. Congrats!

    1. Mark

      mental limits pushed…like having to put on a face in front of Joe.

    2. Christopher Chamberlain

      By the way, how did the surgery go Joe?

    3. Joe

      Surgery was good, painkillers were even better…should be back at it next week. I am signing up for every class Mark is in and WODing right next to him.

    4. John

      Surgery? Boy…is my face red. Well then, get well soon!

    5. Mark

      Oops, that was Mark. Boy is my face red again.

    O’Neill’s would like to chime in on the congratulatations to John and Nikki on their first successful year. It is an honor being the self-proclaimed satellite campus of ICA and I believe O’Neill’s may have officially broken in the gym with the first group class, just saying. Thank you for your hospitality you and your community show us when we come up and visit. Still bitter sweet that we lost John as a coworker after this successful year but I, I mean WE, will get over it in a few years … Maybe.
