Just joined about 6 weeks ago, great coaches, lost 8lbs and feeling so good. Really inspired by the coaches/owner/ teammates to drive hard but yet the family feeling. I'm all in, my only regret is not jumping is sooner. Let's go! read more

This place is Epic! Especially the 5:30AM crew! All the coaches are great! I've been coming here since the first day it opened.

Ive been a member of this well run family owned box for almost 5 years. The Jamisons take pride in their business and do their best to provide a quality Cross Fit experience. read more

Great Gym! Super friendly coaches and members. The coaches are really breakdown technique step by step. Safety is a huge priority I highly recommended this box. read more

Jason Jamison has created a welcoming and fun atmosphere at Crossfit modern. I discovered this "box" just by accident driving past it in my neighborhood. It's sandwiched between a diner and a tailor shop, posted up like a humble Mecca for the most athletic to the just starting out folks (like myself). A frequently used excuse why people don't do CrossFit is because it's too hard on your body. It's true that if you do any of the movement wrong you'll probably pull a muscle but this gym is special. The instructors will teach you the right way to move and not hurt yourself. Great gym. Give it a try. read more

Look no further. CrossFit Modern is not only a great gym to train but also an amazing community of committed and supportive athletes. The owners Tesa and Jason are great along with the other coaches. They really care about helping athletes improve strength, agility and overall fitness without compromising your form. Along with strenuous yet rewarding workouts, a nicely clean, organized space and outdoor area, the energy at Modern is unmatched. Come experience it for yourself! read more

Great CrossFit gym. Solid equipment. Good and Challenging workouts accessible to athletes of different levels. Owners Jason and Tessa do a great job read more

It's been a very up-and-down year to say the least. Yet the coaching staff continue to persist in giving their all, to all of us. It's truly a family friendly environment. I felt at home immediately. The encouragement from management and members alike continue to keep my spirits up and fuel the next work out. read more

I can't say enough good stuff about Modern! I've been to several CrossFit gyms over the last 10 years, and this is one of the most friendly. The owners are hands on- dealing with the day to day operations and also coaching. They know their members, and care. There is an eclectic mix of athletes, from pregnant moms with kids at home, to high school athletes looking to get an edge, to elite competitors. I started CrossFit to cross train for outrigger paddling, and it has become a staple of my life. I haven't found any other workout that is as effective at keeping up my overall (general) fitness in such a reasonable amount of time. Just a couple days a week can lead to awesome gains, and with outside responsibilities, my time is valuable. The coaches are ALL respectful of our time, our individual goals, and our limitations. Not only do I feel like Modern is helping me maintain a healthy (ish ) lifestyle, but it is fun! I love the varied workouts (although I complain about back squat days), the sense of friendly competition, and peer support! The equipment is high quality, the facilities are clean, and I feel like the staff is very conscientious about safely (physical safely as clients learn the basics... as well as COVID safely over the last year!) I Modern! read more

What can I even say about Crossfit Modern?? Jason and Tesa run an amazing facility. I've been coming here for just about 6 months and I'm so addicted! I'm addicted to the fitness, the community, the atmosphere, the culture! All of the coaches are personable and helpful. Everyone constantly motivates each other and the team like camaraderie is like none I've experienced before. They have classes to fit any schedule which is nice when you're a busy person! I highly recommend this gym for those that are looking for a great workout that is fun and challenging no matter how long you've been going! read more

Crossfit Modern - Interval Training Gyms Near Me - Long Beach, California

I have been going to CrossFit Modern for the past 3-4 years. Jason, Tesa, and the rest of the coaching staff are awesome!! Super friendly as easy going. One thing that sticks out the most to me, is that they are very family oriented. As soon as you come in, you're welcomed no matter what. Nothing else matters. They care about your well being and also your physical aspects. Definitely a keeper when it comes to gyms!!! read more

I tried a few CrossFit gyms before I stumbled upon CrossFit Modern, but the genuine community is unlike any other gym I've been to. Within my first class where I didn't know anyone except meeting the coach for the intro, members would introduce themselves to me and encourage me when it came to the WOD we were doing. When the class was over and I went home, I was convinced before that I was going to join another gym I had attended before. But when it came down to it, there was something tugging at me that was telling me this was the gym I was supposed to join because of the sense of community that you experience when you walk through their doors. Now a month in, I feel like I've been a part of the family for long and even go do extra curriculars with other members on the weekends and look forward to working out and seeing the people I've come to know. If you want a badass, hardworking, encouraging CrossFit gym and family, come to CrossFit Modern and you won't look back. Bonus, it's pretty affordable too, especially for a working full-time student! read more

I have been going to CrossFit modern for years. The owners are great and run it because they love it, and it shows.

Not all gyms are the same. I have had the fortune to go to good ones and some not so good ones. When you think about it, they all have the same equipment, follow some type of similar schedule and the like, so what really makes the gym are the people - both the coaching team and the other members. This place rocks both categories. I will be the first to admit that going to a new gym is intimidating and yeah I get a big ole pit in my stomach, but these guys seriously made me feel so welcome and put me at ease and made me feel like i could do anything. Still not sure how they do it, but there is a great sense of competition and support happening all at the same time - it's pretty often that it takes me the longest in class to finish a workout and the coaches stay with me the entire time (I like to say I am getting more workout for my money ;) All i would say is try it. I know for myself that the thought of going back to a conventional gym is inconceivable to me - I love the class environment and I get so much from the supportive cross fit family. read more

Came in not knowing anything about crossfit and man did it kick my butt! Definitely got me in shape. The classes are structured and coaches are very helpful and attentive. There's plenty of times to catch a class whether you're an early bird or more of a night owl. Big plus is that the community aspect that you get, many gym-goers and coaches have become my close friends, which is truly priceless. read more

I was a gym person, super hesitant about Crossfit but decided to give it a try while the gyms were closed. I am 100% a convert thanks to Modern. The owners are friendly and helpful, trainers are knowledgeable and I feel like the workouts are well thought out and balanced. There is a range of abilities in the classes and it's so cool to see that. Inspiring! It's also changed my body composition so quickly. Can't say enough good stuff about them. read more

I love CrossFit Modern! Amazing coaches, great team, and works outs kick my butt!!! So happy I joined!!!

Dropped in at the gym for a week and absolutely enjoyed every workout. The coach's are very knowledgeable of every exercise and lift. Overall it was a great experience and everyone made it very welcoming. I would recommend this crossfit box!! read more

I've been doing CrossFit for 8+ years and I can honestly say this is the best box yet! The coaches are awesome, the members and community are great. Such great coaching, programming and camaraderie. Definitely recommend anyone who is an experienced cross-fitter join if you're looking for a new gym, and anyone new to CrossFit please do a drop in!! read more

I'm an original member from Crossfit Los Alamitos and decided to expand my membership to have access to both gyms because I wanted to expand my fitness routine and because I commute from work in LA straight to the gym near home I wanted to be able to have access to classes at different times (from Crossfit Los Alamitos) in the evening. I'll be honest, I was terrified to try crossfit in August of 2012. I thought my husband was crazy when he suggested it because from what I always saw on TV. Everyone looks so in shape, climbing ropes, lifting barbells, doing handstands... while i'm only in my early 30's I couldn't even imagine doing any of those things! But I took a shot at it and LOVED IT! I have been able to do things in crossfit that I never thought I could do. Sure, I still scale various workouts, but i've made so much progress over the last 15 months that I feel great about where I've gotten. When Crossfit Modern opened in Long Beach I was all for it. What sold me is that Crossfit Modern also offers some other great classes on top of Crossfit that members can participate in. CardioFit with Carrie kicks my butt, but it works on building my endurance. For those who are nervous keep in mind that anything can be scaled to fit your current needs, and it should be! We all start somewhere and you'll find like I did with proper coaching that you can make progress toward you goals quickly. Everybody who is a member is so encouraging, cheering each other on and Carrie is such a great coach! Yoga with Carmella is also wonderful! I have never done yoga before and Carmella knows how to take us through all the movements and teach us how to do every stretch and pose. My husband and I find it to be a great stress reliever AND when you're doing any sort of work out program (like Crossfit & CardioFit) it is SO important to stretch!! Crossfit Modern is great! It's clean, its friendly, it challenges you physically and mentally to reach your goals (something I struggled with alone in places like LA Fitness) & it's a great community to be a part of. If you've ever been curious about crossfit, or just wanna get in shape or BACK in shape I strongly suggest you check it out! :) read more

I'm a recent join to CF Modern. I used to go to a different CF gym but left because it was way too "clicky" for my taste. Everyone at Modern has been so friendly and welcoming. It's like night and day. The coaches are the best and are very involved. They take the time to make sure we understand the exercises and are doing them correctly. They have many classes available throughout the day. The quality of the equipment is legit and the whole place is CLEAN. The class format is great as it focuses on the warm up, mobility, strength, and form all before the main workout. I could go on but you should just come check it out for yourself. read more

This place is great, welcoming warm fun atmosphere with great coaches, programming, and community. They will teach you the safe way to scale down any workout to keep you moving and progressing. A perfect balance to battle the long hours in an office chair. This gym is solid. The way they pulled together through the pandemic is truly impressive. I always look forward to the next class. read more

I just recently joined CrossFit Modern and I was blown away by how friendly and welcoming everyone was. I was really nervous coming into a new gym but the coaches and athletes there made me feel right at home. I would definitely recommend checking this gym out! read more

Other reviews have explained the community and support and familial atmosphere of Modern pretty well and accurately (it's awesome). My emphasis is on the coaching which is by far, the best I've seen in Long Beach/ Orange County/ Greater LA area for Crossfit. Whether it is Olympic lifting technique cues, workout strategy, squat cycles, competition training, strength technique, or diet-- the coaching is top notch. It's easy to take it for granted, but when you drop in on another gym and see what the difference is and how other gyms are lacking in attentive coaching, you can't wait to get back home to Modern. read more

Dropped in while working in town and loved it. It was a really fun and friendly group of people and a great workout. The coach, Raffy, was awesome and did a great job of giving clear direction and was available to help when needed. I will be glad to come back to this box next time I'm in town read more

The coaches--Dave, Jason, Jake and Carrie--all bring different strengths and knowledge to the table. They all take the time to learn the physical capabilities of each and every client that comes through the door. They will tell you when push yourself harder in a workout or lift and will tell you when to scale back to avoid injury, on an individual basis. Having a background in gymnastics and competitive cheerleading, I have had a lot of coaches in the past. Crossfit Modern has some of the best athletic coaches in terms of proper cues and explanation, attention to detail, safety, and overall knowledge of sport and physical fitness. The Crossfit Modern programming and coaching has allowed me to physically do things I could never imagine, and be the strongest I've ever been, despite coming from physically demanding sports. Every workout is a humbling experience, but leaves you feeling stronger than the day before. Offering other classes like Yoga and Cardiofit, Crossfit Modern gives you more for your money than most Crossfit gyms, and allows you to mix things up a bit. Lastly, the friendships I've made at Crossfit Modern are irreplaceable (cheesy, but true). The people I sweat with at 6am are the same people I go out with on Saturday nights and the same people I would bother at 2am with a flat tire. read more

Crossfit modern is a legitimate gym whether you are just getting back into shape I want to become an elite athlete. Regardless of ability or age the coaches pay particular attention to every athlete's needs and goals. This is not just a gym it's a community. read more

I love this place! I have always been someone who works out whether it's running, hiking, yoga, etc. No workout has ever given me the results that I have gotten here within a few short months. Initially I was worried that weight lifting wouldn't give me that "high" that I would normally get from my other cardio activities, but I was wrong. I absolutely LOVE the workouts. Jason is a great coach, always enthusiastic and motivating, and able to push you to that next level while never compromising form. Join this gym. You won't regret it. You'll walk in a little nervous but you'll walk out sore, proud and excited to come back for more! read more

If you want to get in the best shape of your life, get it started at Modern. read more

Great trainers, extremely friendly environment with major emphasis on technique. Sean, Jason and the rest of the crew are just great people! You basically feel like you have personal training every single session. Highly recommended! read more

Whether your Pre-Covid activity of choice was Pilates, pole dancing, or pickup soccer, the odds that you can no longer do it are high, as well as the chance you need something else to keep in shape and fight quarantine blues. As new resident of Long Beach, and powerlifting/CrossFit newbie with a background in martial arts, I was in the same quandary. Shopping around for gyms, trying aerobics and HIIT classes in the park and making up for my downtime with cycling, I couldn't find a place, even among some other CrossFit gyms, that struck a balance between health and safety and a quality community workout. Enter CrossFit Modern. From the first day I dropped in for a totally free class, the owner, Jason, took time out of his personal workout to walk me through the mechanics of a movement, welcoming me and kindly correcting me. Classes here are outside, socially distanced, with all equipment sanitized in between users. The coaches are dedicated to ensuring equipment is cleaned, and the gym's willingness to prioritize safety is impressive. CrossFitting surrounded by athletes of all skill levels and goals has made me fall deeper in love with Olympic lifting, MetCons, and the uniquely dynamic movements CrossFit offers. Whether you are a looking to shed some quarantine fluff, hone your technique and reach new PR's, or simply find out what makes people so crazy about CrossFit, CrossFit Modern is the perfect place to do it. Five stars for a welcoming, world-class space that pairs competition with no judgement in the perfect Covid-safe setting! read more

I'm new to Crossfit and had not done much exercising at all in about 9-10 years . Only been going to this gym for a few weeks, but Crossfit Modern members and staff make you feel like part of the team and are very inviting to newbees like myself. I'm working exercise back in my life slowly, but with this place I can already tell I'll get back in great shape and see results. What really attracted me to this place was the fact that they offer a crossfit class, cardiofit class (boot camp style) and yoga class. They offer a very flexible schedule so everyone can make the classes. When I was looking at different crossfit places in the long beach area, none of them offered an additional class that specialized in just cardio training (cardiofit class), which is what I was looking for in the beginning to get my stamina up and cut some fat off. Then later work on the muscle building with crossfit. Carrie the main instructor for Cardiofit will kick your butt! I've taken a few Crossfit fundamentals classes so far and they are great (crossfit intro before you start the real deal). And this gym will give you your money's worth. There has not been one day where I wasn't sore as hell the next day after a class, because they kick your butt but also make it fun at the same time and you definitely won't be bored with the workouts. You should definitely come down to at least try a free cardiofit or crossfit fundamentals class and see what you think. I highly recommend this place. read more
