Michelle is always a positive force during our workouts. She remembers if you need an alternate exercise that works best for your body. As seniors, we really appreciate the guidance.The workouts are challenging and fun. Optionally, making fun of the workout because it is challenging works too.Great space and people and staff!

ECCF is a very welcoming gym for all skill and experience levels. The coaches are great at helping individuals adjust the programming for something that can work for anyone. The ECCF community is positive, supportive, and fun making some of the tough workouts much more enjoyable!

I've been going to ECCF for over two years now. Excellent coaches, a great space and the atmosphere makes working out something I actually look forward to! The personal training and open gym have helped me level-up my fitness in a big way. Thank You!

I joined this gym when I first moved to Seattle and immediately felt welcomed, everyone is super friendly and the workouts are great! Not only is ECCF a fun place to exercise every day, but it’s such an active community we do events together all the time (monthly happy hours, go to local sporting events, and do fundraisers for neighborhood charities). I couldn’t ask for a better gym!

Did a drop in here - really great! Signed up and reserved a class through the website. Megan was the coach, she was great! I was there for a partner WOD and several members chatted with me, one asked to be partners. WOD was good, and kicked my ass. Highly recommend for a drop in!

I joined the gym in 2022 with zero CrossFit experience and it has been my home away from home ever since! The sense of community, acceptance, and encouragement is unparalleled. It's not just a gym- it's a safe space to grow and challenge yourself. Beyond the highly trained, attentive coaches- there is truly a strong sense of community here where I have met some great friends. Great fitness progress as well! If you’re on the fence about joining… do it! It’ll be one of the best decisions you’ve ever made.

This is my forever crossfit gym. After 10 years in crossfit and several gyms, this one is home. The coaches are exceptional and so are the members. I get targeted direction on form and technique and enjoy the mix and caliber of the other crossfitters. My status as a senior adult and my frequent travel are no bar to comraderie. I am especially grateful for the support of the gym owners and their generous allowance of time away without penalty. 🙏

ECCF has fostered a caring, fun, and supportive fitness community. I started Crossfit at this gym in Nov 2019 and now am a regular ~5x times per week. The coaches are dialed-in on instruction, technique, and form, while they maintain an encouraging atmosphere for newbs and elite athletes, alike.

2024-01-28T16:49:48.743Z

I simply wanted a place to workout besides my home, post-covid. I found so much more! I found a community.I love the early bird classes. The coaching is quality and they make Cross-Fit approachable to everyone.

2024-01-28T01:59:11.402Z

I love ECCF! Great owners, coaches, and community! Come join us!

2024-01-27T23:46:16.374Z

I love this CrossFit community. Being surrounded by coaches and athletes that push you to go harder, be better, lift heavier, and be smarter (scaling is sexy) really changed not only my physical health, but also my mental health. I am forever grateful for ECCF and the coaches who put up with every moan, complaint, fail, and PR to make sure we are being our best selves.*I am also grateful that they make us do cardio, since I would not do that on my own *

Emerald City Crossfit (ECCF) is a phenomenal gym. When I joined, I was very cautious to do crossfit as I had never worked with a Barbell. However, the coaches are amazing and every calls there is focus on technique to make sure all of the athletes are safe.The community is also something special! I joined for fitness and gained a great group of friends.Highly recommend ECCF whether you are looking for your regular gym or you want to drop in to try it out!

2023-10-22T15:35:32.421Z

The coaches and people here are so warm and welcoming regardless of a person's fitness level. It is more than just great workouts, it is a great community. It has had such a hugely positive impact on my life and I can't say enough wonderful things about it.

Started here July 2023, & I couldn't be happier. I attend personal training classes 2x a week & regular WOD classes 2x a week. I've been doing CrossFit since 2007 and this box has the best programming, by far. My results are incredible. After being on a 5 year hiatus from CrossFit, I was worried about my performance and discipline but everyone at this box, coaches & members, are the best group of humans on the planet. Instantly I felt right at home. ECCF is easily the best part of my day. The box is cozy, like working out at home in your garage. They have a great merch section filled with shirts, snacks, recovery drinks & coffee. They truly care about the members and it shows. Outside of the everyday WOD, the coaches take personal time and host member community building events, like Happy Hour's, CrossFit Throwdowns, all member bonding experiences. I've made some awesome friendships with people just like me. I even brought in a close friend, totally new to CrossFit, who had a great experience and signed up for a membership the same day. Thank you ECCF, you brought me back to life. If you're new to CrossFit or an OG, or even just a drop-in please give ECCF a visit. You won't be disappointed.

I've been to many CrossFit gyms in my 10 years of doing the sport and ECCF has the most supportive, close-knit community that I've experienced. From the day I joined, every member and coach made an effort to get to know me and I quickly developed close friendships. In addition to the strong community, the programming and coaching is top notch and no workout is ever the same. I'm so happy to call ECCF my gym home.

I joined this gym almost 2 years ago and this gym has become a part of my lifestyle. I have been to another CrossFit before but this gym stands out. Great people, great coaches and the vibe while working out is amazing. Everyone is very welcoming and helpful and they make sure you are doing things the right way. Give it a try and you will not regret.

2023-04-11T21:51:31.969Z

This gym has the best coaches, the members and the best vibes! Everyone is friends and everyone is so freaking strong, supportive and non judgmental. I love this community!

2023-04-11T21:48:54.341Z

I joined ECCF seeking a routine yet challenging fitness journey. I got that, but I did not expect to join such a positive and empowering community of people. The coaches are OUTSTANDING in both their attitude and guidance. The owners are very communicative and make an effort to give members an experience that goes beyond the normal gym membership. Each time I go to class I feel challenged and uplifted. Also major fitness progress!!!

2023-04-11T00:00:39.707Z

I cannot speak more highly about ECCF! As someone who came to the gym with zero fitness experience, I have seen myself grow both physically and personally through my time at Emerald City. The coaching staff is phenomenal as they take the time to understand each individual's needs before helping them craft and achieve their goals. When I first joined ECCF, I assumed I was just going to improve myself physically, but instead I found a community of athletes who genuinely love, support, and care for each other. I am so thankful for the friends I have made through ECCF, and I am thankful for this community where I can unapologetically bring and better my whole self every single week. If you're considering joining Emerald City...DO IT! I guarantee you won't regret your decision.

Wonderful, warm, welcoming community with knowledgeable and skilled training professionals. Love having this amazing place in our neighborhood!

Great place to workout, dropped in several times while in town, had great workouts every time, and the people were great! Highly recommended!

2021-04-11T20:55:05.009Z

Spent a year and a half at this gym as a member, and I can't say enough to describe how great of a gym it is. The owners were always doing everything they could to make the gym better, the coaches provided knowledge, skill, acceptance, and compassion, and the members were always encouraging and fun to be around. Programming was second to none! This gym truly brings community and fitness together in a positive environment.

2021-02-26T00:07:48.026Z

The programming at ECCF is such a great combination of gymnastics, barbell work, and conditioning that it’s impossible to get bored. Safety is a huge priority to the owners and the workouts can be scaled for all abilities. The community is incredibly supportive and fun to be around! I have always liked group fitness classes and joining ECCF was a perfect fit for me when I wanted to move on from barre and bodypump to more goal-focused programming.

2020-11-16T07:02:29.439Z

There are no words to accurately describe how wonderful Joe and Kendra (the owners of this gym) and all of the coaches here are. This is not just a business to them. Joe and Kendra truly care about each member and prioritize our health and individual needs above all else. These owners go above and beyond. For example, during the pandemic, they have ensured access to equipment for all members for at home workouts and have offered to work with members who have been financially impacted because the owners’ motto is that fitness should be accessible for all.Showing up to class, whether in person or on Zoom, has been my source of therapy and I would not be sane during these unprecedented times without this community of coaches and members. The coaches all truly foster and believe in an inclusive environment for everyone of all fitness levels and backgrounds. Through all of the craziness of this year, the one thing I look forward to is the 3-4 hours a week when I am surrounded by wholeheartedly great humans (in person or virtually) who support me and push me to levels I never thought I was capable of. I could not be more grateful for this community.

2020-11-09T17:33:18.135Z

Love working out here. The coaches are great - they are knowledgeable, very inclusive, and really care about safety and helping each athlete find the right way to excel, whatever their needs and capabilities are.
