Dynamic and challenging! Ben is helpful and offers alternatives to RX for new members. His coaching is clear and concise. The BlackWolf community is also fantastic. Less

I was always scared to try CrossFit, but I’m so glad I stumbled upon Black Wolf CrossFit. The coaches always have the best energy, the workouts are great, and the community is amazing. I actually look forward to going to the gym.Since joining a year ago, I have never felt stronger and healthier. Cannot recommend Black Wolf enough! Less

I recently moved to Houston and was looking for a CrossFit gym to continue my training. I found this place through Instagram, and right away, it felt like a friendly and welcoming community—I wasn’t wrong at all! From day one, Ben made me feel at home, and the coaches Nicole, Ricardo, and Val are absolutely awesome. Their energy, guidance, and support make every workout both challenging and rewarding. If you’re looking for a place that pushes you while making you feel like part of a team, this is it. Highly recommend! Less

This box is one of the more friendlier boxes in Houston in my opinion and they are always super helpful and knowledgeable when you need to modify a workout they are always happy to help and are big on teaching you proper techniques so that you don’t injure yourself during the workout. And everyone is always so warm and welcoming which makes it my favorite box in Houston and when I’m consistent and not traveling for work I really do see results and I love it. Less

Let’s start off by saying this was my first CrossFit experience and I was very pleased with the workout and the community as a whole. Ricardo did a great job coaching! The atmosphere was positive and very inviting. I really enjoyed my workout!! Less

What can I say, let’s not make this a long story because honestly I can tell you all lots of things. I can’t thank my friend from another CrossFit enough for talking to me about CrossFit. “You will love it trust me, the community everything, just try it and if is not for you then at least you tried”. I’m glad I did because I am now in love with it. I’m a beginner I know I can’t do most of the things but never ever felt like I failure here, they motivate you to keep trying and become better every day. I have gained so much confidence and I can’t thank each single person here from coaches to members because they make you feel included. I can have a bad day and going to a class makes me forget what was that bad thing. I just love stepping foot there every time. I know for a fact I am in my happy place and yall should try it too, maybe it will be a life changing experience. Again thank you to everyone here and I just realized I did made this long… o wells ❤️ Less

My wife and I have been going to Black Wolf since early this year and have been tremendously impressed with Ben and the rest of the team. We were brand new to CrossFit and were not sure what to expect when we started. We very quickly felt included and apart of the group. The staff and members are very encouraging and motivating. We absolutely love tackling our morning workouts alongside a fantastic group of kind and driven individuals and would highly recommend the gym to anyone who is wanting to try out CrossFit! Less

I‘ve started going to Blackwolf a few months ago and have become a huge fan! Very professional coaches, great atmosphere. Everyone here is so welcoming, supportive and kind. No burden at all to show up multiple times a week, I feel extremely motivated here. The workouts always hit the spot, great balance between strength, gymnastics and cardio.Highly recommended! Less

My partner and I sent an exploratory Instagram DM late Sunday night (9:00 PM) with the assumption that we wouldn't get a response for a couple of days, if any. Well, we received a response within 5 minutes and that started our journey with Black Wolf.We had the assumption that Crossfit gyms weren't accepting of people of different skill levels and that members are intimidating. I am happy to report that is not the case at Black Wolf. We were complete novices to these styles of workouts and can attest that all of the instructors take that into account in every movement in workouts. Not to mention that Black Wolf members are lovely and welcoming.My partner and I really glad we joined this gym. We have been members since Nov'23 and have seen improvements in our bodies/workouts/health. Less

The best place if you don't just wanna stay fit and build strength but also to be surrounded by a really nice and very supportive people. The community here is incredible! The owner Ben is also very involved , dedicated and ready to chat and help. Coaches are very supportive too and always answer any question and let you know if you are not moving correctly. I love this place in many aspects and definitely suggest it to anyone who is in the middle of choosing the gym. Less

Black Wolf is great. I was never comfortable with gyms or group fitness (partly because of stereotypes I had in my head, and partly from concern of being the one person who didn't know what to do), but the team here makes every session a positive one. Workouts are varied, with scaled alternative options depending on capability. And importantly for me, only concern that you do the best you can at that time - not to overdo things for the sake of it.Even more valuable is the community feel Ben has built. The other athletes, and all the coaches, are extremely friendly and there is an active effort to maintain the feel with regular social gatherings away from the box.After initially "encouraging" me to try Black Wolf against some resistance, my wife is now mad I've stolen her hobby and am attending more often than she is :D Less

Ben is great! He does an amazing job explaining each movement and accommodating every one’s skill level. The community as a whole is beyond welcoming and host fun events outside the box! Highly recommend! Less

One of the best CF boxes you’ll find. The community is super kind, inclusive, and motivating. Ben, the owner, is incredibly involved as a coach and welcoming to anybody new or experienced with CrossFit. I haven’t met a single athlete here who hasn’t been a genuinely nice person. Pricing is also comparatively fantastic to other boxes. I’d recommend this place to anybody! Less

If you need a box with awesome people, coaches who care about you, friends that will die with you during a wod then this is the box for you. If not, look elsewhere 🤗 Less

I've been a member for the past 7 years. I've been to a bunch of other gyms. Ben always maintains the equipment, work outs, coaches, gym members and environment at a high level. This means you wont be dealing with broken equipment or bad programing. You will be surrounded by great coaches and great people to work out with. Less

I've been working out at Black Wolf for 8 years and have stayed for a reason. The programming is great and the people are the best. Can't recommend it enough! Less

Highly recommend! Ben is fantastic at what he does and has built the BEST community of people! The Black Wolf community is diverse, positive and literally some of the best people I have ever known. Less

Awesome place. My wife and I started 3 months ago and it has been one of the best decisions we made this year. The classes are great and Ben and all the coaches take care of checking on you, and know when to push you to become better and stronger. It does not matter your level, we started from 0 and we have been able to improve every time, little by little. Everyone is friendly and supportive of each other. If you are looking for a place to make friends, feel supported and get a better version of yourself, this definitely is the right place. Less

This place is amazing. Everyone, ESPECIALLY ben and the coaches make you feel right at home. I've enjoyed every workout and have smiled every time I've walked through the door. Less

one of the best parts of my day is working out at black wolf. The community and coaches are amazing. I always leave feeling better and stronger than when I arrived. The amount of encouragement and support at this place is indescribable. If you’re looking for a place to work out with great humans and killer workouts then this is the place for you! Less

The coaches and community at Black Wolf are unmatched. After bouncing around with different workouts for years, I’ve finally found something that I completely enjoy. And as an added bonus in the best shape of my adult life! Less

Okay...I believe I've written a review before...but since I've been with Ben for 9+ years, I decided I can write a second review. Ben writes very thoughtful workouts. He has a reason for each movement he includes. He hires great coaches (William, Nicole, Kirby, etc) I'll confess I'm his mom...but I'm also a faithful athlete in his box. I am 65+ years old....and I am included and encouraged by all the others in the class!! I wish we'd get a few more seniors...but I love everyone in my classes😃 Less

If you need motivation to get moving then go to Blackwolf. If you need to get a great workout go to Blackwolf. If you want to make new friends that keep you accountable and show up go to Blackwolf. The owner Ben really puts in all of his effort into making your experience the best and takes the time to walk you through each movement whether you're new or a long time member. Safety is important and so is having a great time at Blackwolf. You won't regret trying this place! Less

Black Wolf is my favorite box in Houston. Ben (the owner) is very active in the gym and is a fantastic coach. His knowledge is unsurpassed by anyone I’ve met in the industry. The programming is well thought out and he easily makes adjustments to work around injuries. Less

Amazing community of welcoming people of all shapes, sizes, ability level and age. Honestly always leave drenched and wanting more! Ben and Kim are extremely nurturing while still pushing you to be your best and get your money's worth! Less

I really love the Freestyle HIIT workouts here! The instructors care about your form and give modifications for ability and injury recovery. I work harder because of encouragement and challenge from instructors and peers. It's a nice community of people with no frills or attitude. Less

As of December 2019, I started my journey to a healthier and stronger self. The journey has not been easy between diet changes, kids, work and making time to workout, but, the wonderful coaches at Black Wolf have been a tremendous help in making it possible. I have been able to workout in the FreeStyle classes at my level (beginners) and have already noticed growth - yay! These small accomplishments motivate me to keep coming, one day at a time. I'm taking positive steps to a healthier me and would like to thank Ben and Kim for all their encouragement and support!! Less

I’ve been at Black Wolf almost a year now and it’s been a great experience. It’s clean, organized, classes start on time and offer a good variety of weights with cardio. Plus the coaches are awesome! I highly recommend. Less

I can’t say enough of how much I’ve enjoyed my time at Black Wolf. It’s okay to be afraid or slow or just flat out bad at something because the coaches will help out and make sure you feel great about what you accomplished. I’m so glad I got over my fear of cross fit and tried it out. 💪🏽💪🏽 Less

Nervous is an understatement when I first walked into Black Wolf CrossFit. A friend invited to me a free community Saturday workout and I have been attending ever since. Best decision ever! Ben and Joel are amazing coaches. They take the time to give clear and concise instructions and genuinely care for every individual that walks through the doors of this gym. Less

One of the most welcoming, friendly, challenging, and diverse gyms in the city! Community feeling is spectacular with amazing coaches and great times. Everything is scalable for anyone, and they make it accessible to each person! Less

if you’re looking for a community that will make you laugh, push your bohndaries, allow you to make mistakes, and pick you up on your darker days then this place is worth the look. This gym and the people in it are the best part of my day! Less

Excellent gym! I really enjoy the programming as well as the attentive coaching. Many times a class has more than one coach which helps them give everyone some attention. I also appreciate their focus on a movements form and emphasizing that this is more important than the weight you use during a workout.This gym has pushed me to be a better athlete and I am really seeing the results as a member. Very friendly too! Less

If you are looking for a WELL ROUNDED fitness program, amazing good hearted people, coaches that actually know what they’re talking about that are some of the best coaches I’ve met (and I’ve been in the fitness industry for a very long time (25 years)), and accountability with all the tools you need to reach your goals.... well BWCF is your answer. I seriously love this gym. I joined the CrossFit community in 2014 and have been to many gyms all around Houston (6 months on and off) I would just get unmotivated and bored of the workouts. To me a lot of them were based around “too much of the CROSSFIT workouts” instead of actual programming for competitors, which once an athlete always an athlete but I’m not getting any younger. Looking for longevity and quality! I was looking for a well rounded fitness program that I can do for a long period of time. Ben, the owner, has some of the best programming I’ve done! I found this lucky charm when they moved behind my house on Valentine’s Day 2017 and have been there since <=that’s almost 2 years now! That in itself should tell you a lot, but best thing is you can come in and try it for yourself FOR FREE. Less

Black Wolf CrossFit is a life changer! When I joined the gym 3 years ago, I couldn't even do a proper air squat. The coaches care and are intentional and patient with your growth as an athlete. The classes are coached from start to finish, and the community is unlike any other!!! 5 STARS!! Less

Never an athlete but always a spectator I started Crossfitting in 2012 and was in the best shape of my entire life. For personal reasons I was at only 60% of my potential from 2015 until 2017 and while pregnant my only form of exercise was walking. Now that my son is six months I have no excuses for not coming back to CF, but I have to admit it is a bit daunting being the new kid at the box. With that said though from my first day EVERYONE has been very welcoming. The coaches greet you by name as you walk through the door; the members encourage one another during the WOD; and, from what I have seen so far, the group wholeheartedly gives back to the community. I highly recommend anyone who is curious about Crossfit to drop in for a class. I've drunk the Black Wolf CF kool-aid and am confident they can help me get back to where I need and want to be. Less

All CrossFit gyms have nothing on Blackwolf! Everything your looking for it’s right here at this location. You want to be challenge this is the place ! Never been to a CrossFit place this is the place to try it out at ! Your scared , Don’t be ! It’s easy to say but trust and believe that you will love it here . I am a year in and wouldn’t change it for nothing . The best decision I’ve made in my life ! Less

I have been a member of Black Wolf for almost one year now. All I can say is this- my decision to join Black Wolf after my one week trial has been one of the best decisions I have made in some time. The coaching is tremendous. The coaches know each and every one of us in the gym- strengths, weaknesses, areas for improvement, etc. They also know everyone’s name! They greet you as you walk in the gym, acknowledge your efforts during the workout, and make sure to send you parting words as you leave for the day. I have never felt so welcome. Another thing you will notice during your very first workout is that the coaches are very thorough in their explanation, instruction, and critique. They observe your form and function with a keen eye not only to challenge the athlete to push himself/herself, but also to insure that the work and movement is done safely. I never thought I would be able to do some of the things I can now do thanks to the attention to detail and direction by the coaching staff. In addition to the coaches, the fellow athletes are amazing. Whether you attend at 5am or 4:30pm, there is sure to be an incredible group of athletes that are truly there for one reason, to be better. In addition to being incredibly strong, the fellow athletes are also humble, encouraging, accommodating, welcoming, and motivating. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to be a member, and I intend to be a part of this community as long as I am physically able. Less

Blackwolf has the best coaches! The gym has lots of space and they always have up-to-date equipment. The classes are super challenging and fun. All levels are welcome they have scaled options for everything. I highly recommend this gym. We are a big happy family! Less

This gym is the best in Houston. Period. The coaches, Ben and Joel, are amazing. They motivate you to put everything you have into each workout. The gym is large so you never feel like you’re going to run into someone’s barbell during the Wod. Location is super convenient and plenty of parking. I feel stronger and healthier than I ever have. Member for life. Less

Black Wolf is a place for the long time dedicated and a place for the newbie just the same. Ben and Joel have created the most professional and personal blend of coaching in the entire city of Houston. Each is dedicated to helping you reach your full potential and they will bend over backwards to help as long as you commit to doing your part too!I've been working out with Ben since 2012 and our community has been a positive influence on me from the beginning. From daily motivation during the WOD to support outside the gym, I couldn't ask for more (whether it is running a race, a weightlifting competition, a charity event, or just a life event, I have seen "the gym" consistently show up in full support of anyone out there being awesome)!Of course, my positive words are a direct reflection of my love for the gym. In my first review of the gym 2 or 3 years ago, I pondered if everyone walking into the gym would have the same positive experience I have had over the years. Originally, I believed that, as with most things, "to each their own" and allowed for the possibility that some people might prefer other gyms. While this is still possible, I would like to modify the criteria. If you are willing to be accountable for yourself, cognizant/respectful of those around you and genuinely believe (or are looking for the belief) that you can always improve, you owe it to yourself to come check out Black Wolf, because you WILL NOT find a better gym in Houston. Less

I was originally incredibly CrossFit-adverse, but a friend nagged me until I took advantage of the free week BlackWolf offers. Once I did, there was no turning back. I love this place, the coaches and fellow-athletes have become friends, and it's become a natural part of my day. Even if you think that CrossFit isn't for you, you should still come check out the free week, just to be sure. 💃💃 Less

I can't believe I haven't rated my gym before! I love this place, my coaches, and the people I work out with. I couldn't picture myself going anywhere else! Definitely 5 stars! Less

Black Wolf is more than just a gym. If you want to see yourself truly transform, both mentally and physically, then this is the place for you! All you have to do is show up, with the willingness to learn and sweat. Ben, Oralia, Adriana, and Leslie take the extra time and effort to coach you to the best of your abilities and really break down the technical moves to help you succeed. You’ll never feel out of place or awkward during a class.Aside from the coaches, the thing that sets Black Wolf apart is the community. It’s the people that share the same goals, determination, and hardworking attitudes. It’s the people that willingly come together on a Saturday to workout, volunteer and brunch. It’s the people that get done with their workout way before you do, yet stay and encourage you to finish.Come try out your free week at Black Wolf and see yourself change for the better! Less

I can speak wonders about the coaching team a Blackwolf! Not only have they built a great work out program that is suitable for all levels of fitness but they have also created an amazing community... They make you feel welcomed, comfortable, motivated and excited about coming in every day!!! Less

I've been a member since it opened. I followed the owner there from a previous box. Ben and the other coaches are excellent at what they do. Anyone can try it out. Everything is scalable. It's a great community to be a part of . You don't have to be awesome when you start but if you stick with it you'll be awesome in no time! Less

After the first 8 months of many more to come, along with losing some weight, I’ve learned many valuable lessons at Black Wolf Crossfit. From the many women (and men) I work alongside, I’ve come to the realization that this is a life commitment. And as with any personal commitment, I’m motivated by the fact that I’m surrounded by individuals that expect the same or more than I do myself. I’ve been guided in each class from the very beginning, given constructive feedback and cheered on the entire way when my efforts speak more than the weight I’m able to carry. In the midst of a very busy schedule, I’m appreciative of having a place that helps me relieve stress, grow both physically and mentally strong, all while getting my sweat on! If YOU are willing to go 100%, Black Wolf Crossfit will help you see it through! Less

I am so blessed to have come across the Black Wolf community. The coaches are extremely passionate and encouraging in everything they do. Black Wolf is full of positive vibes whether you are the first or last person finishing the WOD. In the past few months I have seen my body transform as well as my mindset thanks to Coach O. I definitely recommend Black Wolf! Less

Black Wolf is much more than a great community of members who support and encourage each other. We have some of the BEST coaches out there. Not only do they help their clients set and reach goals, but they actively pursue and crush their own. This in itself is motivation to keep coming back and pushing to be the better you. Less

I started my one week free trial at Black Wolf CF exactly one year ago. I drank the kool-aid and I've been committed ever since. My first day I couldn't do a single sit up and had to use my elbows to get my body up to a sitting position. The first week was hard, I struggled and questioned my sanity but I liked it. I liked having something programmed, I liked having other people around me, I liked feeling the pain in my muscles knowing that they were finally doing work, and I mostly enjoyed not being looked down on for my pitiful physical performances day in and day out. When I would finally get a movement right, it felt amazing. I went to a nutrition class hosted by Coach Ben and it made all the difference in terms of what my body was consuming. Coach Oralia has personally guided me through my nutrition journey and I have lost 50 lbs with a mixture of good nutrition and crossfit classes. The coaches are very hands on and willing to answer any question you might have. This gym works for me and it can work for anyone willing to put in the work. Less

Black Wolf is an amazing community of people who support and encourage everyone who is there trying to better themselves. The coaching staff is phenomenal and really makes an effort to get to know their clients and do whatever it takes to help them succeed. Surrounding yourself with such positive and hard-working people makes it impossible to not enjoy coming here, and seeing/feeling amazing results makes it even better. Less

This place is awesome! I used to go to a different box where the coaches were nice but they never knew my name. Here Ben knows my name and so do all the other coaches. They make everyone feel welcomed no matter your skill level. I'm usually one of the slowest and last to finish but coaches and other members still cheers me on. Because of Ben I have been adding more weight to my bar. I'm impressed at how much weight I can lift and how much I have improved since I started. Less

Ben, Oralia, Adriana, and Leslie do their absolute best to bring out the best in you. As a devoted member for over a year, they have helped me completely transform my body. Yes, it involved changing up several things in my diet, and hard work, but they were (and still are) there every step of the way. Come by and change your life! Less
