Not welcoming to outsiders. Made my anxiety so bad with the way I was being treated by one coach that my legs went numb during class. Secretly, was scared and worried about cleaning up and leaving without anyone noticing it. It's now been years since I been in a gym because of it. read more

When I started at CFK, I was looking for a great workout for a few months to jumpstart my fitness. It's now been over 7 years and I'm still there! I started for the great workouts but I've stayed for the people. The coaching is top notch and the community aspect is even better. I've had so much fun, made so many friends...all while getting stronger and healthier! read more

This gym is amazing and even though I don't go there anymore, I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place to start and a place to thrive. The owner creates a fantastic community that embraces everyone, no matter what. read more

I had started with the 6 week challenge and I've been loving it ever since. With the support of my husband (who cooked all my food!), friends, and family I was able to start living a healthier and better lifestyle. Steph, Bucky, Natalie, Will, and all of the coaches are amazing and not only make you feel comfortable and welcomed but push you to be a better you. I had lost a total of 11.5 lbs and 3% body fat in my 6 week challenge and I can't wait to crush the goals that I have set up for myself with the help of CrossFit Kaneohe. The hardest part is getting to the gym, once you're there you're in good hands. If you're skeptical, don't be! Just come! Everyone is there to help each other and be each other's hypeman. read more

I was super excited to FINALLY try Crossfit after it "seemed" that I won a "6 week transformation challenge" to "promote" their gym. I take two hours out of my day to wake up early to go to their interview only to find out at the very end that I didn't win anything. It's $585 for their 6 week challenge. "What"!!!!! Even before the interview, I texted Bucky to ask if it was a gym trial and for more "info" on the challenge. Here, he had a chance to explain to me that there would be a cost involved. Instead, he said he'll explain everything when I get there. So basically they used deceptive advertising / promotions with absolutely ZERO disclosures to lure people into the box. Whether intentional or not, that's just SHADY and unacceptable business practice. When I mentioned the ad, Bucky just quickly apologized and offered zero recourse. Because I own a small business, I would have at least offered some compensation for wasting time out of my day for their use of "misleading" advertising. But nothing but an apology was offered which is a bit disappointing - I mean even a two-week trial at the box would have been better than a simple apology. The Facility: The box itself wasn't quite inviting. It's large but hardly anything inside - almost like a small airplane hangar. Yes, I know that most crossfit boxes are like quite bare bones - but this one was particularly bleak. I would believe parking would be a issue they are located in a highly industrialized area where a lot of businesses share the same parking. Other than the issue I described early, it seemed that the pricing is quite high. $145 / month for up to 12 sessions and $185 a month for unlimited. Wow, that's quite high when you run a "gym" with hardly any amenities (not sure if they have showers / locker room). Additionally unlike other mainstream gyms, crossfit boxes have very little costs in terms of machines, maintenance of machines, and electricity from machines. So I had to ding a star off my review simply due to high costs. I mean, it seems that the targeted crossfit client would not be "typically" in the affluent range so nearly $200 / month is quite steep - especially in urban Kaneohe... My 24 Hour lifetime membership is about $100 / year comparatively. However understandably, crossfit will provide you more personal trainer type mentoring versus a big box gym where you are on your own - so perhaps the monthly costs are worth it if you fall in that category of needing mentoring. So because I couldn't participate in the "crazy" offering to 'promote' their gym, I can't comment on the actual workouts. (I'll attach the ad that I "fell for") - it even came with advertising "trick of the trade" countdown timer However, simply due to their deceptive use of advertising practices and their rather "curt" texting / messaging communication practices, I'd look elsewhere for my first Crossfit experience. read more

CrossFit Kaneohe - This is the Facebook ad that I fell for..Doing something "crazy" to "promote" a gym.. thought challenge was free.. nope.. $585 - Gyms Near Me - Kaneohe, Hawaii

CrossFit Oahu is expanding across the island! Now in Kaneohe! CrossFit Kaneohe opened their door this week. Located on the back side of Windward Mall (Regal Theater) across of Alaloa Street in the brown warehouse building. There are no signs, but it is close to the back side next to a tow company. There's no parking within the private lot, so it is street parking. It's a warehouse space, so if you have never done CrossFit before, don't expect a gym setting with carpet and air conditioning. Coaches and staff is friendly and helpful. They are very knowledgeable and is willing to help you achieve your goals. If you are interested in trying it out without committing to it, there is free intro classes on Tuesday nights at 7pm and Saturday mornings at 10am. Many people have heard of CrossFit or has seen the games on tv and has told me "I'm afraid, it looks super hard" - it really is not. The work outs are scaled to your own abilities. How you want to push yourself is up to you. For more information, you can visit their website at crossfitoahu.com or find them on Facebook. It is an investment. And it can become a lifestyle. How much is your health worth to you? read more

I've been doing Crossfit since before anyone ever heard of The Games or The Open. I've belonged to a few different boxes and visited many more while traveling. I've also done the big-box gym thing, Orangetheory, and spinning. I can say that hands down, Crossfit has been the best and most effective training methodology for me. So, why Crossfit Kaneohe? The coaches here truly care about your fitness and your development as an athlete. If you are new to Crossfit, you'll attend elements classes where they teach you the basic movements you need in a non-intimidating environment. Everyone is rooting for you! Bucky and Stephanie work incredibly hard to make this place more than a gym - it's an ohana. The fitness/nutrition challenges they regularly run are life-changing. I moved here and lost at least 25 lbs thanks to participating in a couple of the challenges, and I know I'm not the only one because I see it in the gym! All abilities are welcome, there are no divas or egos to contend with. There is always plenty of space, it's very clean, and the workouts are always different. You will never get bored, and you will never get in better shape! read more

Clean. Organized. Friendly people - not a click-type or exclusive cross fitters only type of box. People who go here care about their health and fitness. Even the serious athletes are kind and friendly, not snooty like some CrossFit or HIIT gyms tend to be. read more

Well well, what can I say about Crossfit? It's challenging, but I definitely don't regret signing up for it. I went to my first Crossfit class at the end of January. I went to the free class that they offer every Saturday morning at 10am. They offer a free class on Tuesday too, but I never attended it. I'm assuming it's the same though. Bucky was the trainer for that session and he was super friendly! (He also has the cutest dog too, so sometimes you'll see the doggie in the parking lot or at the front of the gym. ) I won't lie-- the first class of Crossfit kicked my butt. I was definitely out of breath and dripping in sweat, but that just meant it worked me hard! I hesitantly signed up for the elements class. I was hesitant because it seemed really hardcore for me. I wanted to make a change and running every other weekend wasn't going to give me the results that I wanted. The elements class was good- they are mandatory sessions that meet twice a week. You must complete the elements classes before you have a regular membership. It's pretty cool because after your first week or so, you are allowed to go to any other group classes for free. It's like an unlimited membership to Crossfit on top of the elements class for that first month. I liked the Elements class because you are with the same people that signed up for that month, so you meet people fast. Keep in mind that you must sign up for the elements class at the beginning of the month because you can't join halfway in. You'll have to wait for the following month to sign up. I "graduated" from the February elements class and I stuck it out for the entire month, so I continued my membership by doing 8 times a month in March. As we are coming to the end of this month, I am considering to do an unlimited membership for the month of April. I still count myself as a newbie because I still don't know all the names of all the moves and my form isn't very good especially with weight lifting, but Bucky is always helpful and he explains things really well. It was very intimidating at first glance, but I'm starting to like it more and more. My fiance claims that I've toned up. I personally don't know if it's possible to see results that fast-- he may be saying it to motivate me. haha. Whatever the case, I will take the compliments! The most important thing is that I feel good and if you want a good workout-- Crossfit won't let you down. I will most likely stay at Crossfit for awhile (except for the month of July, since i will be freezing my membership due to traveling) so if you see me, be sure to say hi! read more

LOVE CrossFit! While the Kaneohe gym is a little narrow and hot, I love the positive environment; it's like a happy little family! You need to park outside or at the mall, but we've never had issues finding parking. We love this Kaneohe location!

Pros: Awesome and very knowledgable coaches. New and clean box. Excellent workout for anyone at any physical fitness level.

Crossfit is now in Kaneohe! Woohoo! If you are looking for an exciting workout that will kick your butt, then you've come to the right place. The coaches here are supportive and awesome. They will help you with your strength, conditioning, and form. It's not like your usual gym with a boring stairmaster or treadmill. If you come to crossfit, be prepared for an epic workout! Coaches Bucky and Jamo will get you in the shape you need to be in and since this location is newer you have more one-on-one training with the coaches. What's also great about this place is there is one membership but you can go to any of their 5 gyms (CF Oahu, CF Waipio, CF Kailua, CF Pearl City, or CF Kaneohe). Crossfit Kaneohe is located in a warehouse behind the windward mall. It's located right next to the recycle place. Street parking is available but I think you can park in the mall parking lot. read more

Who knew working out could be so much fun?! First of all, this isn't your typical gym. You won't be mosey-ing in and out, hopping on the elliptical, and then heading to the sauna without making eye contact with anyone. At Crossfit Kaneohe you WILL get your a$$ whooped. You will have the most amazing coaches who truly care about your fitness, not to mention cool, funny, kind, supportive, and super STRONG! You will feel like dropping dead on the floor after a 15 minute workout. You will make friends who are either dropping dead right beside you, or who cheer you on till the end of your workout. It doesnt matter what fitness level you start at - you will become better, healthier, and stronger than you were the day before! Give it a try, you will love it! :) read more

This is by far the best box on island. They have a variety of class times, showers, kid room but above all that...the coaches are exceptional. They fee about each individual walking through the door and take the time to coach through simple and complex movements. Every time I leave, not only am I physically stronger, but I make mental gains as well. CrossFit Kane'ohe is the place to be to get stronger and to be included. read more

Started off not being able to do a squat, lift weights or run a 800 m without taking a break. Now I can do a back squat with 55 lbs, deadlift 105 lbs and run 800 m. New you challenge was one of the best decisions I've made. I trusted the trainers, process and diet lost weight but also gained muscle. I plan on becoming a member and joining the crossfit family. read more

Generous drop-in policy, friendly and professional staff, and a great space. Looking forward to working out with you guys whenever I'm in town. read more

This is a great Crossfit box tucked in the industrial section of Kaneohe. There is only street parking but the facility is well-equipped and the members are very friendly and welcoming. Don't be scared to try it! The coaches are very knowledgeable and will walk you through every movement in every class. I've been going to this box for almost two years and it's great. I've gotten so much stronger and more flexible since I started, and I look forward to each workout because of the people I get to see and hang out with. If you're looking for a workout program or gym membership that you'll actually want to stick to, Crossfit Kaneohe is the place to find it. The box offers Crossfit Kids, Olympic lifting-only classes and mobility classes in addition to traditional Crossfit WODs. read more

I've never though that I would actually do crossfit until I tried the "New You Challenge" here at Crossfit Kaneohe! Let me tell you that it's no walk in the park..it totally kicks your butt (and everything else on your body lol) !!! But that's exactly what I needed and need! Our coach Stephanie has been so amazing from the start, even though it's classes with others you feel like it's personal training every time! She's also so encouraging and pushes you to push yourself yet understands and knows your limits. She's able to scale certain workouts so you're not half assing it but doing it the best you can! Also Bucky has been coming to our classes to encourage and motivate us too! It's a great place to really push yourself and have others around to motivate you! Today is the last day of the challenge and I'm excited to say that I'm going to continue on get a real membership :) read more

Hands down this is THE BEST GYM that you can find on the Windward side. I joined CrossFit Kaneohe on a whim because I saw that they were offering a 6 week challenge for those who were new to CrossFit or looking for a different fitness challenge. The initial meeting with Coach Bucky went well and he answered all of my questions about the fitness challenge and what it included. Next I had the opportunity to meet with Coach Steph and went over nutrition goals and fitness goals as well as getting my initial weigh-in stats. I was nervous about CrossFit because I'm not the most athletic person but we spent the first week going over basic lifting techniques as well as SAFE lifting techniques. After that we got the okay to participate in the daily classes and could choose what day and time fit into our weekly schedule. I just finished the 6 week challenge and lost 6 lbs of body weight and 3% of my body fat. It doesn't sound like a lot but I definitely gained more confidence, more energy, and made a whole bunch of new friends too. After I finished the challenge I signed up for a year long membership to keep on track for my fitness goals and weight loss goals. I would highly recommend signing up for the six week challenge first if you're interested because you'll have support both inside and outside of the gym. read more

Five months later and getting stronger and faster every day. Great environment, and the gym has a mascot named Klokov.

Crossfit Kaneohe is open. No excuses for all of you on the Windward Side. Bucky and his group of wonderful coaches will get you living a healthy lifestyle. You are making an investment in your health and well being. Put down the soda, throw away that candy bar and find your way down to Crossfit Kaneohe. You will get the opportunity to learn in a cozy, friendly atmosphere. When you become a part of the Crossfit Kaneohe (and Crossfit Oahu) family you will have the opportunity to surround yourself with a community, a family, of people that will encourage you, support you, and endure the pain of fitness with you.

You will get to do all the olympic weights, learn how to do all the body weight exercises and understand how important mobility, flexibility and stretching are. The best part of Crossfit Kaneohe is the sense of community and family. The people that workout there are amazing. They are friends in and out of the gym and as a member of Crossfit Kaneohe you will feel that huge sense of community. They are my second crossfit family. It's a small box and with that, you get to know everyone that trains there. This is what makes Crossfit Kaneohe so unique.

A little back story about myself...I HATE fitness and LOVE food esp with gravy all ova! Now fast forward 6 weeks, I LOVE fitness and found a love for HEALTHY food, no gravy involved ;)..CrossFit Kaneohe has definitely SAVED MY LIFE and that is not an exaggeration. Walking into this box that my brother forced me to "just check out" I had my doubts. But in my heart I knew that I needed something in my life to change before it was too late to do anything about my unhealthy habits. I told myself "give them 6 weeks of trust, listen, do what they say and if you don't like it at the end at least you tried." The 6 week challenge (what I started off in) is a nutrition/workout plan/guide and it's great for people like me who don't know diddly squat about how to eat right. The best part of the 6 week challenge is the ACCOUNTABILITY, Steph & Bucky we're always asking how we were doing with nutrition, and ALWAYS available to answer any questions I had and pumping me with confidence every step of the way. I wish it was longer and most likely will try it the challenge itself again! You can see how contagious the positivity is through out the entire community! I am NOT a social butterfly, I'm quiet and keep to myself mostly but everyone I've come across has made me feel welcomed but most of all CONFIDENT. EVERYONE has had their struggles but instead of pointing fingers at each other, they embrace everyone's differences and skill levels and only want you to do better. It's the best community I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. It has changed me in so many ways, I thought eh, cool, maybe I can loose weight, but no, I got so much more than that. My overall way of thinking has improved 200% I am not battling my anxiety and depression as bad as I was, I was smoking 2 packs of cigarettes a day! Now I'm down to about 8 and still heading in the direction of quitting :), my children are seeing the difference in me and are even eating healthier and talking about fitness with me, I get pumped thinking about how I'll be able to look back through out my CrossFit journey and see how much progress I've made, I am a positive and productive person now and I have CrossFit Kaneohe and everyone there to thank! My plan is to continue as long as I can, and if for some odd reason I don't keep up with it, I know that I've gained a lifetime of knowledge and support...I don't believe I did it, I believe WE did it because I honestly don't think I could've overcome my own obstacles alone. read more

I was looking for a Crossfit gym once I got to Hawaii after doing it for a month before going to OCS. A friend recommended Crossfit Oahu and all the branches and told me about the one in Kaneohe. I started the elements class and made some great friends. It was great to be in a class with people at the same skill level especially starting out. After I graduated elements, I became a regular 6pm'er and made so many more friends. I'm also getting in shape and having a great time doing it. I love all the extra classes and clinics they offer. You also have access to 3 awesome coaches: Bucky, Kalea, and Jei. Each bring something different to the table. Come check out our Ohana Crossfit family here at Crossfit Kaneohe! read more

Do not be intimidated- everyone is friendly and helpful when they figure out you are new and you don't know what you are doing! Bucky is cool and encouraging. Come join the fun. read more

I didn't know what to expect going into CrossFit for the first time, especially not being in the best of shape. Stephanie and Bucky really take their time every class to show everyone the correct form before doing any activity and keep you at a pace that is best for your level. They are exceptionally motivating and the other members of the gym are such a close group that always lended a hand when I needed it. I couldn't believe my results after just a couple weeks of going and how much better I felt, which has led me to be more active outdoors when not working out at the gym. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone no matter your workout level!! read more

I came into CrossFit Kaneohe with the New You challenge. At first, I was a nervous because I didn't know anyone and had not been working out since High School. Coach Bucky and Stephanie are super helpful and welcoming. They did not just help me getting through the classes but took time to talk about nutrition and ways to help me meet my goals. It is a great atmosphere and the other members welcome you as well. Its always scary being the new guy but this gym made it very easy to meet new people. The workouts are challenging and I had to learn a whole bunch of new skills but the coaches take the time to walk with you through the motions. I'm glad, I found this place and this place welcomed me. read more

Such a wonderful group of people to be around! No matter your fitness level, you will feel comfortable and encouraged by your teammates and awesome coaches... There are members of all ages and levels of fitness! Bucky and his awesome staff will help you with your weight loss goals, strength, conditioning, everything! There are always new classes like meal prep, pull up clinics, romwod (stretching/yoga), etc, etc! You will be hooked, I promise! The hardest part of starting crossfit is just getting in the door.. After that you'll wonder what took you so long! I still battle with a lot of movements and my nutrition but your teammates and coaches will be there for you every step of the way! Best decision I have ever made! read more

Excellent, small box. Dropped in when visiting and took a class from Bucky. Very good coaching and welcoming to visitors. I'd recommend it if you're in the area. read more

Thank you. There's no words to express how grateful I am for this gym, and this family. I've had back issues for the past three years. Off and on steroids/pain killers, in and out of school/work for weeks at a time. My doctor misdiagnosed me with a minor disc bulge because he refused to give me an MRI. In December 2018, I bent down to grab something, and couldn't get back up. I was frozen on the ground in excruciating pain. My family called an ambulance, and when the paramedics picked me up from the ground, my family said they've never heard screams like mine before. I blacked out multiple times from the pain and was truthfully scared that I'd become permanently injured/disabled. Fast forward a bit, three full weeks of not being able to walk without assistance, use the restroom, shower and do the basic "independent" things... really shrunk my self image and self worth. Fast forward a bit more to March, I was diagnosed with spinal stenosis, with a 6mm protrusion into my spinal cord. I then finished a full round of physical therapy with some relief. But I still couldn't confidently lift even 25 lbs off the ground. Fast forward again to June, I saw an ad on Facebook for a 6 week challenge. I immediately was intrigued because my PT exercises weren't doing anything for me anymore. I outgrew the exercises they gave me... I knew I needed a push, and I threw myself into unknown world of CrossFit. I immediately got contacted by Bucky and Stephanie, and set up my consultation appointment. After sitting and talking with Bucky, I knew that this was the right move for me. I signed up, strapped my shoes on, and went to work. I tried my best every day, and they helped me scale everything to where I'd be comfortable. I'm so excited to say that after two months of being with this awesome xfit family, I feel like I'm on the right track to full recovery. I haven't had any sciatica pain since I started and I never thought I'd be running again... let alone pushing weights. Today, I hit a personal record, 163 lb on a back squat. It's amazing to see how far I've come in just 8 months. Thank you, thank you, thank you. For giving me my confidence back. For helping me get healthier. For welcoming me into the box that so many people call their home. See you crazies tomorrow. read more

CrossFit Kaneohe - Gyms Near Me - Kaneohe, Hawaii

I LOVE CrossFit Kaneohe! I started doing CrossFit almost 3 months ago and have seen great results so far. I thought it would be intimidating when I started, but the coaches are very supportive and knowledgeable and scale the workout to your skill level and ability. ANYONE can do it. If you're getting bored going to the gym, which is how I was, then you have to try CrossFit. You won't ever get bored because you never do the same workout! And, unlike going to a conventional gym, you don't have to spend hours doing CrossFit in order to see results. In fact, many workouts are around 15 minutes long! Come check it out at one of the free Intro classes, offered at all 5 gyms (CF Oahu, CF Waipio, CF Kailua, CF Pearl City, or CF Kaneohe), every Tuesday at 7pm and Saturday at 10am. Hope to see you there! :) read more

This is my second visit from out of town. I was welcomed by Bucky and had a great workout with his class. Friendly people and cozy but well equipped gym. Great routines and trainer. THANKS! read more

I've been going here over a year and love it. Everyone is very friendly and encouraging.

Cfkbay coaches are experts and provide the best support to be the best at your level. Everyone is so welcoming and down to earth!

I joined Crossfit not knowing what to expect but knew I needed a boost physically and mentally. I have to say so far it's amazing. Stephanie and Bucky are awesome trainers, patient yet motivating, upbeat and and non judgmental. I've never joined any type of group fitness because I was always nervous about not being good enough or not being able to complete the workouts. When I walk in the door it's such a motivating environment and they really push you to excel and get better and make you truly feel like you can do this. Once you have that push you know you can. I love it, it's exactly what I needed not only physically but the mental challenge as well. If you've ever been hesitant to join a group class this is the one to join. The team atmosphere, awesome workouts and physical challenges only help you excel as the best you. I can't wait to scale and get better and do all those things physically I've always wished I could. Don't go it alone, join and trust me you won't regret it. It's not easy but nothing worth working for in life is. Thanks Crossfit Kaneohe team, you rock! read more

This is my Home away from Home over the past year. I truly love this place. The Coaching staff is top-notch and the Ohana here is impossible to beat. Great people, great times.

I LOVE CrossFit Kaneohe! I was intimidated at first, but once I got started in their "New You Challenge" I experienced how amazing the coaches and people are. I have two young children and wanted to get fit again. The last time I worked out like crazy was in high school. So as a former jock, the workouts just worked for me. I like the pure intensity for short periods of time. This place isn't pretentious, we just workout. The coaches are exceptional at what they do and they are friendly. Crossfit is addicting. I'm a full-time mom and Crossfit just makes me happy. I also got my husband to do it so he goes in the morning before work and I go in the evening. Sometimes we bring our children while we workout. You can't put a price on your health! read more
