CrossFit 646

What can I say about CrossFit 646?! It is the best box I've ever been a part of! I moved to Tucson with my wife for 6 months while she did her grad school internship down there and decided to give 646 a shot since it was the closest box to me. I honestly wasn't expecting much since I wasn't going to be a permanent member of the community, but the moment I stepped in the door, the owners, Matt and Mel, were super welcoming. I felt they were both truly interested in getting to know me and my background which made it easier for me to open up (I can be more introverted at times). They both have an extensive background in not just CrossFit, but sports performance training and Olympic weightlifting. Their dedication to their craft shows in not just their deep knowledge base, but also by being very active and present coaches during class time and outside of class time. Every time I observed them coaching, they were always walking around and checking technique and correcting if need be, offering encouragement and generally being very involved. They are what you want as coaches/owners and represent the profession very well. The other coaches, Camille, Trevor, Rachel and Courtney, were very friendly from the outset as well and made sure to introduce themselves from the get go.
After 6 months, I had to leave Tucson and unfortunately am unable to take CrossFit 646 with me. The community there really is top-notch with many friendly people who I am going to miss. Don't bother checking out other boxes - CrossFit 646 is the best in Tucson!
