I had a great experience at CrossFit DC! Coach Emily did an amazing job making me feel welcome by introducing me to the class. The warm up she led prepped us for the strength which got us ready for the Metcon! The gym space is well setup with rigs on each side with a walk way in the middle. They have a great community and highly recommend for anyone looking for a CrossFit in DC or just a place to drop in. I will definitely revisit the next time I'm in town. read more

I really enjoy my time here at this gym with the diversity of classes and coaching styles and workouts! The H St location is easy to get to and the space is great with enough area for personal and group workouts. and not to mention it's always clean which is a big plus for me! read more

This crossfit box was very friendly and welcoming to a out of towner on business in DC. More importantly, since I have a disability and am an adaptive competitor they truly took the time to make me feel welcome and invited. Thank you to Chris and Jess for their warm and support for this adaptive crossfiter who has Cerebral Palsy (CP) read more

I went to this box for a few months and a lot of the members and staff are very friendly. I enjoyed a lot of their programming as well. My main problems with the gym (the U st location in particular) is that it's often over crowded. The gym is not very large and while it appears there is a class cap, often times there are more people in the class. At times it felt dangerous (wall balls, rowers, and barbells scattered around with almost 30 people packed in). Also, their communication is lacking. I submitted a form on the website and sent two emails and it took DMing the instagram to get a response. Overall, would still recommend the gym. read more

Dropped in for a class while in DC on vacation. Super easy to sign up for a class. Coach was fantastic and the other members were welcoming. It is a little more expensive for a drop in than I'm used to ($25) but I'm also not accustomed to big city prices. I will definitely drop in again when back in DC. read more

good facility with fun workouts. nice people in a great location. Would recommend to visiting crossfitters.

Dropped in while in DC for the holiday. This box did not disappoint. Outstanding coach (Amon) and incredible vibe from the community. Everyone was friendly and super encouraging. Don't think twice about going. just do it! promise you will not regret it! read more

Let me start off by saying, I LOVE this box! The location: Safe area. Trendy location. Right next to a couple coffee shops and walking distance to Whole Foods (where I had lunch after my workout) The Facilities: Great facilities, good size and enough equipment. They really know how to utilize the space they have. The people: I dropped in to Crossfit DC and was immediately welcomed by the members who were stretching and preparing for the next class. Everyone was nice, informative and full of smiles! It's so comforting to feel welcomed especially when you're in an unfamiliar place. Side note: I HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone new to the area- great way to meet people. The workout: From what I experienced, this box seems to be more strength based with met-cons following the strength workout. Great programming! The coaches: All of the coaches I met were great. The two main coaches are Tom & Chris. Both are amazing! Their coaching really sets this box apart from the others. They pay attention to every single person & know how to push you while also ensuring your form is correct. I only have the best things to say about this box! My experience with them was great. If I lived in DC, this would be my home box! Visiting crossfitters: There is no drop in fee. They do sell Crossfit DC shirts! I bought two and took one back for the head coach at my home box. :) read more

CrossFit - Crossfit DC with coach Chris & Tom - Interval Training Gyms Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I found the perfect box...with knowledgeable coaches and amazing community. I recently moved from CA (Coachella Valley). I was told by my teammates at CrossFit Shifted to try out lots of boxes before deciding on one. So I went in to check out CFDC spoke with coaches... As soon as I stepped a foot-in I immediately knew that this box was gonna be my 2nd home away from home. I have been training for two month here... I must say I have improved so much in these two months. I highly recommend CFDC!!! read more

CrossFit - The coolest box in DC! - Interval Training Gyms Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

If you had told me a few years ago that I would become a CrossFit enthusiast, I would have thought you were crazy. I started out at another gym in the area and switched to CrossFit DC about a year and a half ago. I was recovering from an injury at the time and started out with personal training sessions (shoutout to Noor, the toughest and best trainer out there) and then went on to the standard classes. I was pretty intimidated at first because I'm not particularly strong or skilled, but the CFDC programming and coaching is so fantastic that I quickly became addicted. The community itself is also amazing. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming, it's a very different experience from any other gym I've been to. Another great part of CFDC is how good they are at scaling the workouts. I genuinely think that anyone can do it; it's not nearly as intimidating as it seems. Highly recommend anyone looking for a challenging and fun workout give CFDC a shot! read more

TL;DR - Excellent place to drop-in while in DC Email them before dropping in so you can sign a quick liability waiver and you're all set. Being on vacation, they were flexible with which session I could drop inn on. $25 total for a shirt and class Coach Chris and the members were very nice and welcoming. He made sure to adjust the workout to accommodate my wrist injury (a sign of a good gym and instructor). Programming for the day was fun yet challenging. 100% would drop in again read more

CrossFit - Marketing department is spot on! Unfortunately not an actual Pokestop - Interval Training Gyms Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

This is the best CrossFit box thus far. It's not too big and not too small. It's a perfect size and the place is immaculate. Super clean. You can definitely tell that Tom is super organized with just looking around the box. I've been to several CrossFit boxes and I haven't enjoyed one as much as this one. I joined in August, and my first day was full of friendly members asking questions to get to know me and my partner. Tom, the owner and coach, consistently checked in on us during the WOD and he knew everyone's names. The WODs include a warm up, strength, and met con. All done in an hour or less. The time management skills at this place is impeccable, and I absolutely love it since I think every second of every day counts. Even with large groups of people coming in to workout, the organization is amazing. When I joined, Tom was doing construction to the box and now it's all done! He added three showers, and they are spacious and awesome. This gym definitely has everything you could possibly want and expect! It doesn't scream douchebag when you walk in, nor will you find unapproachable meat heads walking around. The coaches take their time to work with you while you're doing the movements. They're very attentive to your form, unlike some gyms I've been to. They're all about safety rather than, 'hey, go heavy and go fast and ignore your form.' They also implement stretches at the end so you won't be as sore the next day. Again, all this done in under an hour! The workouts are posted daily; you can always count on Chris to publish the workout. If you want to focus on form and get better and stronger, this place is it. Also, on Sundays, the workout is 90 min long and Chris focuses so much on your form to make sure you reach your maximum properly. Good wod, good people, good price, good location. I can honestly keep going about how awesome this place is, but definitely drop in and check it out. You won't be disappointed! read more

CrossFit - 6 am workout. Great Coach and great Box - Interval Training Gyms Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Healing my pre-existing injuries, safer than previous options, worth every penny! I was going to CrossFit classes for free at the local military bases. I dropped in on a class here, what a difference! I joined immediately, even though I have to now pay. I was new to CF, riddled with old injuries (not CF related), and was concerned I could easily add to my long list of pre-existing injuries. The quality of the coaching has prevented that from happening. Before each class they show the proper form and queues to use. They intervene when I'm not using correct form and show me how to make needed adjustments. They are helpful when I have questions. Seven years later and I'm the healthiest I've been since I can remember, overcoming many of my old, pre-existing injuries. I couldn't have imagined I'd have progressed this far and feel this good. So much gratitude for the coaching staff and community. read more

I simply can't say enough about how strongly I recommend CrossFit DC. If you're considering giving CrossFit a try, I think CrossFit DC is the place to do it. Whether you're a lifelong athlete or never touched a barbell, CFDC is right for you. I came to CrossFit DC with no athletic experience, other than doing the elliptical or a step aerobics class for a half hour a couple times a week. A friend recommended it so strongly, and I basically went just to tell him I tried it. I was slightly shocked when I not only liked it, but LOVED it. The coaches at CrossFit DC, Tom and Chris, as well as assistant coach Sara, are all simply incredible. Not only are they great people to be around, but they are so knowledgeable about all things fitness and CrossFit, and most importantly, how to do it safely. One tenet of CrossFit is that it is infinitely scalable, and Tom and Chris truly implement that. When I first started, I couldn't do a normal push-up, an I couldn't do a push-up from my knees -- so I did them with my arms elevated on a box. Slowly but surely, I gained strength so I could keep doing tougher and tougher scaling options. Although the coaches are amazing, the best part of CFDC is undoubtedly the community. There are athletes of all levels -- sometimes I'll be lifting a half or a quarter of the weight as someone else, but I get as much attention as anyone else, and it's just as important for me to succeed as it is for the much more advanced athletes. I'm often the last to finish workouts, but I don't mind it, because my fellow athletes who finished minutes before me are cheering me on. I have made some wonderful friends who I can't imagine not having in my life. My time at CrossFit DC has also improved my body image, something so many women struggle with. I no longer weigh myself -- I judge my fitness instead by how I feel, and how I'm doing in workouts. The community is a big part of that; I am surrounded by beautiful, strong women of all body types who emphasize the message that what I can do is more important than how I look. Being part of CrossFit DC has changed my life for the better. I am not only stronger physically, but mentally as well. Sometimes I'll be struggling with something at work, and I'll think about that ridiculously tough workout I did last week and realize whatever I'm facing is nothing compared to that! I have surpassed what I thought my body was capable of, which is such an empowering feeling. I continue to see myself improve and become stronger and healthier. As you can tell, I love CFDC. I hope you'll give it a try and you'll love it as much as I do! read more

These guys are the best. Tom and Chris don't use a cooker cutter approach to fitness but rather work with you to understand their individual challenges and goals and then push past those goals to a new level of fitness, while having fun and feeling part of the crossfit DC community. I appreciate the way they take time to instruct perfect form and make sure you are doing exercise correctly before letting your ego get the best of you and adding weight. Once you have correct form down, they are not shy about pushing you past what you previously thought were your limits. They are great trainers and know who to motivate everyone from fitness novice to elite level athlete. Another great thing about CrossfitDC, is how when you join, you are joining more than a gym. You are joining a giant family where everyone encourages and pushes each other in a fun and supportive way. This giant family environment, combined with the great coaching of Tom and Chris, and the awesome new gym space make CrossfitDC your number one choice for fitness. read more

As much as I loved working out at CrossFit DC before, the space was less optimal in that we were working out in a rented space, so class times and space were always limited. Well, that problem doesn't exist anymore! The oldest and best CrossFit gym in the city just got better after they moved to a new home! The coaching is still great at CFDC, which is one of the reasons I've remained a member there even with my hip problems. I know I can always count on head coach Chris to modify and scale movements for me, and he and coach Sara are always watching to make sure everyone has good form. There are definitely times when I'm like "eh, this is good enough" or just don't feel like being corrected, but they're always able to pick out something that makes my form better, which I guess is better in the long run. With the expanded class times, I've now run into a new problem - I want to be there ALL THE TIME. When I'm not there, I feel like I'm missing out, not just missing out on a workout, but also missing out on seeing my friends at CrossFit DC. Sometimes I just go hang out there, which I'm sure some people are like, "man, what a loser, doesn't she have a life outside of the gym?" Ha, oh well. read more

I don't even know where to start. I could talk about the coaches, Tom and Chris, and how knowledgeable, friendly, and dedicated they are. I could also talk about the space, and how the equipment is new, well taken care of, and there's enough of everything, from boxes, to bars, to mats...to space! I could also talk about the other Crossfitters, and how on my first day, they welcomed me like I'd been coming from years. Really, this gym is the best CrossFit gym in the DC area. I've been injured for a few months and was worried about coming back to CrossFit, but Chris has been very accommodating (and went so far as to take my jump rope away so I wouldn't push my limits on a still-healing ankle). Tom and Chris give beginners and veterans alike the same amount of attention and care. No one is overlooked. Everyone is encouraged. If you are thinking about CrossFit, come to CrossFit DC. read more

Crossfit DC is hands down the best box in DC. With their expert and friendly coaching staff to high quality equipment and support atmosphere, CFDC is the best destination for Crossfitters in DC. Tom, the owner, is a very friendly and professional Coach who welcomes new Crossfitters from out of town and also is a great coach if you end up joining and making this your neighborhood Gym. The vibe of the gym is supportive and friendly while each coach goes out of his/her way to make sure you have correct form and support you along the way during the toughest of workouts. Chris and Steph, who coached most mornings are expert coaches and really go the extra mile for all the athletes in their classes. From newbies fresh out of elements courses to advanced Crossfitters this box will more than serve your needs. I am moving and it is sad for me to leave this incredible community of Crossfitters, don't think twice about what CF gym to join CFDC is the best there is! read more

I've been a member for around two years. The instructors are great and the workouts are tough but not unreasonable. One thing that really makes this place stand out is the quality of the instruction on Olympic lifts. It's not a secret that doing these wrong can be dangerous, but the instructors here watch your form like hawks and encourage members to drop down in weight when their form starts to slip. I had to stop for a totally unrelated medical reason (it turns out I'm allergic to rubber) but I definitely would have kept with this otherwise. read more

This is a great place to do CrossFit! Nothing bad to comment! I finally found a fun way to have my workout done! All the coaches really care about you and are happy with your progress. Coming from a foreign country, sometimes I have some problems understanding some words, but I never had this problem at CFDC because the coaches always demonstrate the right ways to do the exercises and correct me when needed. read more

The same monotonous gym routine became insufficient, and like the rest of many young professionals in DC, I joined in on the premium fitness craze. Before joining Crossfit DC, my fiancé and I had a bad experience at a Crossfit in South Florida that turned us off from the whole program for about a year (just thrown into a regular class without any instruction, and expected to know). As most people, we had friends/co-workers who were constantly raving about Crossfit and the results. I finally decided that it may be different in DC, and that I could always stop if I wanted to. My fiancé resisted until I checked the scene out first (she's a member now!) I researched other Crossfits in the area and went to a few others before finally deciding on Crossfit DC. I have not regretted it for a second! 1) Coaches...coaches...coaches...Since starting Crossfit I've been to 8 different boxes, with visits ranging anywhere from 1 workout to a week to 3 months, and have been able to get a good sense of Crossfit culture. Sure, each Crossfit workout will be challenging in it's own way, and the programming intensity/style is different from box to box, but I'm convinced that the coaches completely define the experience/culture. The spectrum of coaches falls somewhere between very hands-on (think personal trainer) to somewhat attentive (think chaperone during recess in middle school). Which point on the spectrum is the best? It depends. This is where Crossfit DC has the edge in my book. The coaches here will be as attentive as they need to be to make sure you're doing each movement properly and safely (while NOT acting like drill sergeants). It's clear that every coach at Crossfit DC has extensive experience in health and fitness. They aren't just friends of an owner who decided to start a gym. Tom and Chris, the co-head coaches, have done a phenomenal job setting a culture, not just for their coaches, but also for the members. It's clear that from the second you go to the intro class to your 100th class, you're in a positive and encouraging environment. If new to Crossfit, you go through a set of 6 intro classes where they teach you fundamental Crossfit movements and start easing you into real workouts (this is an element I think is missing from most boxes). This has obviously worked out well for them because I don't notice many people leaving Crossfit DC to go elsewhere, and if they do, it's mostly due to moving away. This gradual introduction into Crossfit takes away the intimidation factor. 2) Programming: I'll echo one of the other posts on here that Crossfit DC is more strength first and then Met-Con. Don't get me wrong, there are days when it's a fully conditioning based day, but overall, I'd say there's a 60/40 mix of strength/conditioning workouts. If I think that the week's workouts were too light on conditioning or strength, I'll come into Open Gym and work on my own, and this has worked out well so far. Overall, it's a very balanced full-body workout throughout the month. In my experience, and one of the main knocks against Crossfit, is that Crossfit workouts tend to mix heavy weightlifting with fast paced frantic workouts, which often lead to injury. I've certainly had this experience at some other boxes I've been to for an extended period of time, but at Crossfit DC, the workouts are structured so that if there is weightlifting mixed into a conditioning workout, you're given a wide-range of weight options, and the subsequent days' workouts won't add additional stress to the same areas. 3) Gym Culture: Like many, I was turned off by the macho/holier-than-thou-because-i-workout-12-times-a-week culture that is the norm at some other boxes. I'm happy to say that this culture does not exist, and if it does, not noticeably, at Crossfit DC. There is a wide range of abilities at Crossfit DC. The range spans people who are getting back into the gym after a hiatus to elite athletes competing at the Crossfit Regionals. Due to this wide range, the intimidation/judging factor gets significantly mitigated because you'll find someone of your ability in every class. Yes, the monthly membership is on the higher end of gyms in the city, but if you're considering premium fitness classes/programs, this won't be news to you. If you're a visitor in the city, Crossfit DC doesn't charge a drop-in fee, which is pretty rare from most Crossfit boxes (especially in a major city) and speaks to how much Tom and Chris view Crossfit as a community. Whether you're new to Crossfit or new to DC looking for a new box to join or a visitor from another box, give Crossfit DC a shot! It's your safest bet. read more

Dropped in for a WOD while in town for a wedding. Great box, very welcoming. Got a great workout with Tyler (and a cool new T-shirt). Thanks guys! read more

Man, am I overdue for a review of Crossfit DC. I am a terrible yelp freeloader, one of those people who reads yelp reviews almost daily but only shares their thoughts with the internets once in a blue moon. Today, I do my duty and tell you all about a place I really like. I started coming to Crossfit DC about a year ago now, starting back when they were at Kalorama. I kept coming--and have followed them to their new location on 14th street--because this is a fantastic group, both the coaches and the larger community. I came to crossfit as someone who had never considered herself an athlete, not even when I played sports as a kid. When I was young I disliked all sports except bowling (it was free in my home town in the summer), and I hated every coach I ever worked with. I was completely inactive in my late teens and early 20s, and only started trying to find "my thing" fitness-wise within the last few years when I'd had enough of being overweight (and, let's face it, enough time and money to try some different things). After bouncing from yoga to bootcamps to cardio strength training classes, I've finally landed on crossfit, and this athlete doesn't plan on leaving any time soon. It's taken me a long time to realize that one of the most important factors in keeping myself excited about fitness is having great coaches to work with, people with the right combination of knowledge, firmness, and inifinite positivity. The kind of coaches who can get you to push yourself harder than you ever thought possible and then walk out the door with a smile on your face. The coaches at Crossfit DC are right up my alley. As other reviewers said, you get quality instruction, personal attention, and lots of encouragement. And that's not just from the coaches--the fellow athletes working around you provide plenty of support when you need it. The thing that amazes me most about crossfit gyms in general and Crossfit DC in particular, is that they can be simultaneously one of the most welcoming, non-judgmental environments for people of any age and level of physical ability, yet they also house athletes doing some of the most intimidating, impressive stuff I've ever seen. But when you realize that everyone is simply working toward their own goals, pushing to their own limits, with lots of encouragement from the entire group around them, it all makes sense. If you're looking to get into crossfit, do yourself a favor and start here. The new facility is lovely (I think barbells can be lovely), the people are outstanding, and you'll feel great about two weeks in when the initial I-can't-move soreness subsides. read more

I can't recommend CrossFit DC enough. It has a great community feel and incredibly knowledgeable coaches. I think finding good coaching is probably the biggest challenge for any gym, and these folks really knock it out of the park. They take an interest in your form and movement without being stifling or intimidating, and clearly want you to get the most out of your workout. The culture of this gym is also welcoming and very friendly. I strongly encourage anyone interested in crossfit, whether you're a beginner or have been doing this seriously for a few years, to try out CrossFit DC. read more

I found this box while I was in DC for a conference this fall. It was by far the most welcoming and fun part of my stay in DC. I wrote Tom in advance to say I'd be coming by and he extended an enthusiastic welcome. I found the location easily and felt welcome right away. In fact, I had so much fun at my first workout that I came back the next day! The members are very welcoming and friendly and the coaching is fantastic. Everyone gets individual attention and Tom is very careful and knowledgable about safety and form. There is no drop-in fee at this box so I happily bought a t-shirt. If you're in DC, absolutely visit this box! read more

I messaged this box to see if I could drop in while I was on my vacation and they were super fast on responding to me. Less than a hour to get back to me. My hotel was in the heart of DC and this box was walking distance from my hotel which made it super convenient. Chris was a awesome coach and made sure I was acquainted with all the movements. Over all they were super nice. The gym was very clean and organized as well. Next time I'm in DC im going back to this box. :D read more

This gym lacks so much heart and is far from welcoming. There is no camaraderie among CrossFitters like other boxes I have experienced. It's full of cold-shoulder treatments and embarrassing situations being singled out for one reason or another. They also don't seem to care about tracking progress. They don't schedule benchmarks workouts into their programming like Randy or Fran or Cindy. They're all miniature workouts that coaches have invented that don't get repeated. How are you suppose to note if you're making progress? The programming is sloppy, the coaches mean-spirited and sexist and they teach olympic lifts incorrectly. This is where to go if you want to feel sad and embarrassed while you work out, or injure yourself for a hell of a lot of money. Go elsewhere. read more

I stopped in while visiting for a 90 minute Sunday class. Tom, the coach, was excellent even though the class has 15 people. The atmosphere was super friendly and I even got a brief introduction as a visiting crossfitter. I definitely plan on coming the next time I'm in town read more

CFDC has one of the strongest communities I've seen in D.C. The trainers are all amazing, knowledgable, and can work with all skillsets. I hesitate even calling CFDC a gym, because it's so much more than that. They host gatherings and events routinely, but maintain daily classes as their bread and butter. I could not recommend this box more highly. read more

These guys are great! I have dropped in to over 20 boxes across the US, and this place is definitely one to check out. Some of the other boxes in the DC area are not so keen on having people drop in, so make sure you check it out first. Thanks again Chris & Tom! read more

I love this CrossFit box. I started doing CrossFit 5 months ago and it's now one of my favorite things thanks to CrossFit DC. I've been to 5 other boxes while traveling for work and this one is by far the best. 1) Coaches are knowledgeable and care a lot about form. They dedicate time to make sure everyone is doing the workouts right. I had a personal trainer for a time in the past and the coaches here are more knowledgable about form than any trainer I have met. 2) Everyone at the box (coaches and other crossfitters) are some of the nicest people I have met. The environment is extremely encouraging. 3) The workouts are fun and push everyone regardless of fitness level. I've watched myself get in so much better shape than I ever thought I could over the last few months. I would recommend this box to anyone. If you aren't a fan of crossfit, this box will change your mind. read more

Did a drop in today while on a mini vaca in DC... Chris was a great coach, super friendly and knowledgeable. Helped me with my ring dip stabilization. The other members made me feel like I was right at home. Great environment and energy, would absolutely recommend if you're in the area and looking to get your ass kicked. Thank you Crossfit DC! read more

This gym is 2nd to none. The programming is excellent, the coaching is top notch, and the community/membership aspect is refreshing and welcoming. I have been Crossfitting for over 4 years. I have been both a coach, and a competitor at the regional level. During my time at Crossfit DC, I learned and improved my form, technique, and fitness. The workouts were challenging and scalable for all levels of crossfit. I travel constantly for work, and have had the opportunity to visit many Crossfit gyms. You will find few gyms with the same level of expertise and fun. I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to be coached and trained by the people of Crossfit DC. read more

There are just so many good things to say about CFDC, I don't know where to start. I was looking for more than just a workout--I was looking for support and a community and great coaching so I could feel like an athlete again. I got more than I was asking for. The coaches are great--they make sure you have the mechanics down, they encourage to push your boundaries in a safe way, and the community cheers you on the entire time. And I have improved so much and so consistently by doing the work. I can lift much more weight, my clothes fit better, and after working, I just look forward to seeing and working out with some of the nicest and motivated people. If you are new to Crossfit, CFDC has a great two week elements program (which I did), after which you enter the regular classes and the coaches know you are new and provide extra guidance and correction of your form and mechanics. If you are experienced, you are in luck, because there are amazing athletes who impress me with their strength, skill and kindness. And regardless of your ability, the CFDC coaches treat everyone from the newest to the most experienced person as a valuable member of the community. read more

I highly recommend Crossfit DC to both competitive athletes and those who are new to the sport. I have been cross-fitting in VA since 2009. The first time I dropped in on a work out at Crossfit DC, I was warmly welcomed by the coaches and the athletes. The coaches were extremely thorough in their explanations of the lifts, and they walked us through a very well thought out warm up which was specific to the work out. As an experienced athlete, I was very appreciative of the thought that was put into each step of the work out from start to finish. In 2013, I became pregnant, and dropped in on another work out at Crossfit DC. I called in advance to give them a heads up that I was 6 months pregnant, and that I'd probably be scaling a lot of the movements. When I arrived, the coaches had already modified the movements for me so that I could join in the work out, while maintaining an appropriate level of intensity. The coaching staff at Crossfit DC took all of the guess work out of it for me. One of the coaches even stood by my side to make sure I was feeling well throughout the workout. I was blown away by the kindness and professionalism of the coaches at this gym. Not only is Crossfit DC a place where you will get the best workout of of your life, the people there are kind and fun to be around. To those who are thinking about starting something new, or to those who want to up the ante on their current competitive workout, I HIGHLY recommend this gym! read more

I drop in here when I'm in DC for work. Great coaches, great programming, lots of options for classes. They even let me do 15.5 at the gym when I was in town for a weekend despite not being a member. read more

Incredible gym and and even better people. I was at this gym for two years and would have stayed had work not gotten in the way. Chris, Tom, and the rest of the staff are on a completely different level. Traveling for work has allowed me to try out a number of different boxes, and none of them compare to CrossfitDC. The environment here is very communal and encouraging, with everyone willing to lend a hand. The workouts are posted daily and never disappoint. Across multiple years, I can't remember ever doing the exact same or workout or ever getting bored with the work. The coaches are knowledgeable and can tailor your workout depending on your skill level and/or any lingering injuries you may have. The attention to form and doing the workout right is a huge part of what makes this place great. Throwing around heavy weight is helpful to no one if it's not done properly. The coaches put more emphasis on form and proper technique than any other place I have been. This box should be the bar that Crossfit gyms across the country strive to meet. These coaches will help you bring your fitness level and knowledge to another level. You will never be disappointed and are guaranteed a fun time with every workout. read more

I was temporarily in DC for work and stopped into a class at Crossfit DC. Everyone was super friendly and the workout was great -- even learned some new warmup/mobility tricks to bring home. Tom was very easy to contact and I was able to sign the liability waiver via email ahead of time. Thank you for coaching me Kate! Will definitely be back next time! read more
