CrossFit^® Federal Hill

Fantastic experience: What a facility!!! Incredible. And a great team of caring and attentive coaches. I can’t wait to come back. Any CrossFiters traveling in Baltimore looking to drop in should visit the amazing establishment and it’s people

Fantastic experience: Dropped in on a lively Friday noon class. Very friendly community of members, super clean gym with plenty of room to complete WOD and any extra work you’d like to work on. Would definitely recommend if you are in the Baltimore area.

Fantastic experience: Well equipped facility. Great location. Everything you could want or need in a great gym

Fantastic experience: I did a drop-in while traveling to Baltimore for work. The space is incredible: very clean, spacious, and equipment is well-kept. Brian was coaching the class I took. He was very welcoming and ran a great class! I was very pleased with my visit and would definitely go again if in the area!

Fantastic experience: My favorite gym to drop into when I’m visiting Baltimore. The coaches are always super nice and welcoming!

Fantastic experience: 10/10 would recommend Never done CrossFit before but dang, everyone is so friendly and helpful with literally everything. Hard not to drink the CrossFit kool-aid when going to such a great gym like this one. I would never do half of the workouts I do at this gym by myself, but I enjoy every second when I do it with such an awesome community like this one.

Fantastic experience: Great CrossFit operation for all levels. Strong focus on community and health.

Positive experience: You want to feel younger, you want to stop constantly getting injured? Start doing dynamic warm ups with emphasis on stretching and varying routines of full body workouts with high intensity while focusing on proper techniques. Or you could just come here. Minus 1 star because they have no ac and I will drown in my own sweat during the summer here.

Positive experience: Great place, prices are adequate. People seem great.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Cross Fit Federal Hill for about 2 months and I love it! The instructors know what they're talking about and will work with you to make sure your form is right. You're always encouraged to push yourself but never to exceed your limits. The atmosphere is very welcoming and it's easy to get to know other Cross Fitters and make friends. All in all, a great box to join!

Fantastic experience: I've been doing Crossfit for a few years now. I first joined a box in Miami and then later when I moved to Chicago. While all my crossfit experiences have been great, Crossfit Federal Hill has by far been the best! The members are friendly and there is a great sense of community at the gym. The coaches give you the individual attention that you need during classes and are constantly pushing you to do better. For those of you that are looking to get into shape, look no further! This is the place for you! Try it and you'll never go back to your old gym!

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Federal Hill was my first experience participating in crossfit. As a longtime athlete that participated in traditional lifting and running, i was hesitant to join, but did so to spend some extra time with friends. Immediately my experience became positive when I was introduced to the coaches and people in the gym. What I discovered was that I had formed some bad habits over the years and team at CFH was able to correct and improve those for me. Located in a prime location in Federal Hill, I would recommend this gym to anyone looking for a change of pace or a way to meet new people!

Fantastic experience: This is a great gym! I am pretty new to crossfit, and I always have felt very welcome. All of the coaches are wonderful, encouraging, and very knowledgeable. I have nothing but awesome things to say about this place. I also love all of the options that they have for class times, it makes it very easy to get your workout in before/after work. If you are new to CF or the area, come to CF Federal Hill!!!

Fantastic experience: I've been doing CrossFit off and on now for about 4 years. I started when I lived in Pittsburgh, and after moving to Baltimore I have tried other CrossFit gyms in the area and CrossFit Federal Hill is by far the best. For those who have never done CrossFit, it may seem intimidating and a bit expensive, but when you really think about it, you are almost getting a personal trainer. That's what a good CrossFit gym should feel like. Classes not too big, effective and uses the full hour, coaches are working with you and helping you, creating a safe and fun environment. CrossFit Federal Hill is that kind of gym and is by far my favorite of any that I have been to.

Fantastic experience: I have belonged to this box for about 2 years and it has been an incredible experience. I have been to many other boxes, both in the area and while traveling, and this one has been the best by far. The coaches are incredible, the equipment is always new and updated, and the people are friendly and welcoming. The programming is also always on point, and I have seen vast improvements in myself and in my workouts. I would highly recommend CFH to anyone interested in becoming faster and stronger!

Fantastic experience: This is a great gym with awesome coaches and members! I am not a gym person. I've never had a gym membership anywhere before CFH. I really only tried Crossfit Federal Hill because my husband was into it and wanted me to check it out. It was really hard for me to start, and I am not motivated by competition and scores. But I quickly found it to be something I could enjoy to at my level in my own way, and I am so thankful for it! It helps that the people are so wonderful and coaches work with you at whatever level you are. The culture and community at CFH is supportive and fun and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Federal Hill is the best workout experience I've ever had. Whether you are a beginner or a Crossfit Vet you will get so much out of the experience here. From the top of the line equipment, to the great workouts, to the amazing coaching, it is truly a great environment. The coaches are truly wonderful and are always looking at how each individual can improve. The movements are reviewed before every workout no matter what level you are at. They also digitally track all of your progress through Wodify, no need to write down your own PR's. I have been going to CFH for about 18 months and I unfortunately had to move so can no longer be a part of this amazing community. I will say that it was harder to leave the CFH box than to leave my last job. If you are looking for a great environment, a way to challenge yourself, or even just a way to relieve stress for the week CFH is the place to go!! I STRONGLY recommend it to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym. Attending Crossfit is the first time I've actually wanted to go to the gym and makes it much easier to get in shape. The coaches here are great. They're patient with you as you learn each movement and also very knowledgeable so they can help you advance. The gym has a great atmosphere and everyone is friendly and we have the occasional social functions which are great.

Fantastic experience: I was a member at CFH for about a year. Overall, an awesome facility and staff. I've moved around a bunch, so I've been a member of at least 7 CF gyms. This is one of the best ones I've been to. The coaches are knowledgeable and approachable. They're always there to answer any questions or give you advice. They have a great class schedule. Plus they have a ton of activities and events to participate in. An awesome community as a whole. The gym is large, organized, and clean. Plenty of room for classes and people working on their own programs. The OLY platforms in the backroom are an added bonus. Hopefully, they add some OLY bearing bars.

Fantastic experience: Cross Fit Federal Hill is a great place to train, learn, and find camaraderie... I developed a ton of new skills due to the amazing coaches who were very gracious with their time. Everyone was extremely helpful- the community at CF Fed Hill is wonderful. Learning more about diet and nutrition was a great benefit, and I saw many physical improvements in comparison to my solo work out routines. Really gonna miss the place and thank you!

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough great things about Crossfit Federal Hill! The coaches are super supportive and have helped transform my level of fitness and strength. I look forward to workouts, and the programming is excellent. If you are even thinking about joining CFH-- do it! The fellow athletes are encouraging, supportive, and inspiring, and there is a healthy level of competition. The group atmosphere is top notch. Great equipment and facility. I used to live in Fed Hill and recently moved across the city to Brewer's Hill-- and still make the drive to CFH instead of switching boxes! It's worth it!

Fantastic experience: If you are going to do crossfit in Baltimore, this is the best box to do it. Great location, right in Federal Hill off Key Highway, also with parking! It has only been open for about 2 years so the space is in great shape and so is the equipment. The owners and coaches are absolutely fabulous people - they are the reason a lot of members come in everyday and refuse to switch boxes. People are friendly, great way to make new friends and become part of a community. I can't ever see myself not doing crossfit, especially not here!

Fantastic experience: CFFH has been and still is the best option near Federal Hill / Downtown Baltimore area. Geo and Kelsea are always welcoming and the space is perfect if you want to do your own thing or hop into a WOD.

Fantastic experience: Cool gym. Signed up online, and dropped in while I was traveling for work. Took a scooter from the inner harbor area to the gym, maybe a 5 minute ride (faster and cheaper then an uber). I took the later class and there were only 4 people, which was bummer (I love the social aspect of CF), including me. But good instruction and a good workout.

Fantastic experience: Friendly coaches, and encouraging community members. Kelsea, the GM, is the bomb diggity! I highly recommend this gym for anyone at any level.

Fantastic experience: Couldn't recommend CFH more. I'm very thankful I stumbled in 4 years ago. I've made so many friends, brought in family, and have seen myself grow immensely as a direct result of CFH. The mental grind is just as much as the physical, and I love how you get the opportunity to test both strengths everyday. Can't wait to see what the next few years have in store!

Fantastic experience: IA Crossfit has played a huge role in Baltimore feeling like home. Beyond the numbers of weight lifted or push ups finished, I have never felt stronger or more capable in my own skin. Overall, I cannot express how much the community of IA CFH has impacted me. I love the “IM SO PROUD OF YOU” from Kelsea after class, the form checks and encouragement from Geo, the extra hints and tips from Chris, the sweet check-ins with Laura, and all of our awesome coaches!! IA has helped me fall in love with exercising and provides me with a stellar atmosphere to push myself to improve. ❤️ Grateful for you all at CFH

Fantastic experience: Compassionate people. Great community. Excellent coaches. Enormous gym. All the new equipment you could ever want. Serious and methodical thought and intent put into programming that is revised and reevaluated consistently to ensure it will not evolve to something obsolete. The last one is important because it equals results. And when you mix results with happy folks, then you look forward to working out everyday. And if you look forward to working out everyday then you're happy and the cycle continues to grow and repeat. Special shout out to Kelsea, Geo, Laura & Candace. You do you, and don't change. --Alex

Positive experience: Very nice

Fantastic experience: I have always wanted to feel strong and confident in myself and this gym has given me a way to gain that strength and confidence. The relationships I have built at the gym keep me coming back. The coaches make the workouts fun and do an amazing job of keeping the community feeling in the gym present. They encourage and push you when they know you are able to do more, they help you scale when you need it and they make you feel welcome in the gym no matter what your skill level is. I can honestly say that the relationship and trust I have built with Kelsea and Geo through their coaching and genuine interest in your well-being are what sold me on this gym and kept me coming even when the workouts seemed impossible.

Fantastic experience: Great gym for maintaining physical and mental health! The best aspects about this gym are the community, positivity, and support all the coaches and members provide, I am proud to be a part of it!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful facility with excellent and welcoming people. I dropped in a couple classes while I was in town, and everyone at Federal Hill were more than accommodating. Coaches were knowledgeable and attentive. Gym was well-organized, clean, and stocked with awesome equipment.

Fantastic experience: Excellent coaching, programming, and facility!

Fantastic experience: Excellent staff. Very friendly and helpful. My motivation to a healthy lifestyle is driven by their ambitions. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, coaches and workouts! One of the best spaces of any gym I've been to -- spacious, clean, and solid equipment. The workouts are always challenging and fun, and the fellow members make for a great atmosphere. Definitely recommend to any person in the Baltimore area!

Fantastic experience: Moved to Baltimore last April, and honestly joining CrossFit Federal Hill has been the best part of my experience so far. Having never done CrossFit before, the coaching staff are really good at coaching to all skill levels, and covering fundamentals and scaling options for athletes. Additionally, they are all very approachable, and bring great energy that makes it a great community and environment to be a part of. I also think they do a great job at the extra programming outside of the normal classes, whether that's Barbell Club, Drive, or some of the competition/community events they do, there's a lot you can do to stay engaged with the gym and people there. Speaking of the people, there are many different skill levels of athletes, but all are really nice and make you feel welcome from the beginning. Whether you are an experienced CrossFit athlete or just looking for something new, I highly recommend checking this place out!

Fantastic experience: Great gym and awesome coaches

Fantastic experience: Very knowledgeable and down to earth coaches.. good for drop ins as well

Fantastic experience: Dropped in on a 430pm class with Coach Laura. Laura was super helpful in suggesting modifications to scale and skill. The box is HUGE inside and has a TON of equipment; so no worries about being too close to someone else during an AMRAP or no worries about having to scale up or down when there isn’t a KB left in your size. Overall great box, great coach, and great class. Thanks for allowing me to drop in, Geo!

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Federal Hill is fantastic gym. I've been a member for four years. It has everything you need. Great ownership, fun community events, coaches able to help all athletes from scaled to elite levels, programming (scaled, Rx, competitors), plenty of equipment, space to workout, indoor bicycle parking, open gym on Sunday mornings, showers, and speciality classes (olympic lifting, endurance, etc).

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Federal Hill is an outstanding gym. I trained here during my final semester of college and enjoyed it tremendously. The facilities are spacious, so over-crowding in classes is never an issue. The gym community is top-notch. The athletes range from beginners to competition-level, and top to bottom they encourage and push each other to perform their best in each workout. Coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and help with technique on movements as well as strategies for performing best on specific WODs.

Fantastic experience: Having been at this gym for almost 4 years and seen a ton of AWESOME change and growth. The coaches are always well trained and the classes are run consistently/efficiently to maximize training time. Would recommend it to anyone considering CF for the 1st time or looking to make a switch. Drop-ins always welcomed and encouraged. Geo - also owns CF Harbor East and has completed a complete turnaround of that location as well if your across the harbor.

Fantastic experience: When I first walked through the door of CrossFit Federal Hill, I was unable to string my double-unders together or perform kipping pull-ups. Luckily, I was able to benefit from the dedicated training of the gym's expert coaches who guided me to successfully master these skills. In short, the gym's programming has provided me with the tools to achieve physical feats I dared unimaginable. On another level, CrossFit Federal Hill has been more than a gym but a community of like-minded individuals who support and cheer one another on. My time in Baltimore would not have been what it was without the coaches and members of CrossFit Federal Hill. If you're looking for more than a gym–but a personal transformation–look no further than CrossFit Federal Hill.

Fantastic experience: I loved CF Federal Hill. I started here when I moved to Federal Hills and wanted to change to a crossfit place that was within walking distance from where I lived. I enjoyed knowing and working with every single staff member. They are all very nice and will work with you to make sure you're comfortable with each exercise. I'd like to specifically thank David, Brittany & Geo. If you're moving to Baltimore, CF Federal Hill should be your go to Gym.

Fantastic experience: I was a member here for 3 years and loved it. The coaches are great, the community is wonderful, and the gym is always in top condition. There is such a wide range of members (age, life stages, fitness stages, goals, etc) that I haven't seen at other cross fit gyms. If you're considering joining, I would urge you to check these guys out and drop in on a class.

Fantastic experience: Such a great gym/CrossFit experience! This is definitely the best CrossFit I have EVER attended. Most important, the results are real. I noticed substantial changes in my fitness and how I felt almost immediately. The classes are approachable for all levels. The coaches are so friendly. They go out of their way to demonstrate how to scale movements when needed. I’ve always felt challenged, but never pressured to do anything that made me feel uncomfortable. Coach Davidson Jones is my personal favorite- he’s great at teaching complex movements, motivational, and so funny. He makes class feel like recess for adults. The atmosphere at CrossFit Federal Hill is welcoming and inclusive. It has something for everybody. Whether you’re completely new to exercise or a competitive athlete, this is the fitness experience for you!

Fantastic experience: I like this particular gym for its thoughtful programming, attentive coaching, positive energy and culture of camaraderie. The classes challenge me more than I'd be able to challenge myself on my own. I like being able to show up punctually and have a coach tell me what to do. Everything is scalable, and I feel encouraged to prioritize proper form and listen to my body. My goal for this year was to attend 5 classes per week, up from 2-3. This consistent level of attendance has dramatically increased my strength, mobility and overall energy. I feel great. I'd say that the gym's membership currently skews younger, meaning 20s and early 30s, although there are a few 40- and 50-year-olds. Also, there's a wide range in athlete ability level, from accomplished gymnasts to more sedentary types who decided to embrace the discipline of exercise only recently. The programming is accessible and the community welcoming to all. There's really nothing bad that I can say about it.

Fantastic experience: I was very skeptical to join CrossFit with the reputation that precedes it and probably, more likely, being afraid to fail. It constantly breaks me out of my comfort zone, which would usually make me run the other way, but I keep going back! I couldn’t have been more wrong about the people, community or coaches. I’m so thankful for the guidance and professionalism that the coaches put forth. CFH is an awesome community, I’m glad I took the chance.

Fantastic experience: Great box close to inner harbor Hit a 630 am class with John and super coaching with a fun wod Always nice to visit a new box when traveling

Fantastic experience: Fitness and Friendship! Love this place!

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Federal Hill is a wonderful, motivated community whose coaches really want you to achieve your goals. They are especially awesome about asking for and implementing feedback and requests for particular programming!

Fantastic experience: Great CrossFit gym even for newbies! They make you feel welcome and provide great coaching/instruction to make sure you are exercising well and safely. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I joined 6 months ago and I’m very happy to be part of this team. The best thing, beside the workout itself, are the instructors. They are all very knowledgeable, attentive, motivating and inclusive...even when you feel you can’t complete a WOD. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great coaches, very organized, clean, high quality equipment, friendly to drop ins, good at working with beginners

Fantastic experience: This is an awesome gym with great staff! I would totally recommend.

Fantastic experience: Most important facts 1st: One of the top boxes in the United States. - The most courteous owners and top tier coaches. - Visitors and members treated like family - Huge space. Giant. Massive amount of equipment (bikes, rowers, ski ergs, handstand walking obstacles... you name it). - The owner of the business, Geo, is such a wonderful person and owner. What else can I say?! This place is AWESOME!

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym a couple years ago when I moved to Baltimore. I have been a member at a handful of gyms and this is by far one of the best. The coaching staff, programming, and space is the best around! There is such a strong sense of community! I can’t imagine working out anywhere else in Baltimore.

Fantastic experience: You won't regret taking a stepping out of your comfort zone to experience this gym and its people! The owner and coaches make this gym a home away from home. The coaches are passionate, knowledgeable, and friendly. The owner is constantly putting time, energy, and thought into how to take CFH to the next level to encourage a healthy and happy lifestyle. The friendliness of the members exceed expectations. One of the most impressive and well outfitted gyms I've ever been a member at.

Fantastic experience: An amazing CrossFit box in Baltimore. All of the coaches here are very knowledgeable and have trained for years prior to coaching. Form and safety is a priority here and CFH will allow those at any fitness level to continuously improve. Parking is available in a lot that is a 3 minute walk away and the facility has two showers.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member at CrossFit Fed Hill for one year now. A friend of mine offered to pay for my first month if I would commit to "show up and keep moving". Before joining I was inactive and very much overweight. There were several fears and obstacles that I had to overcome before setting foot inside. But once I showed up I found the community to be amazing. There are people of all athletic abilities and levels and I was amazed at how encouraging people have been to me. At my one year anniversary I am amazed by the progress and how I have grown. I have gotten stronger. I have gained mobility. I have lost weight. And I have gained a network of friends and coaches that help me hit my goals so I don't have to do it alone. If you are considering joining I would encourage you to drop in so you can get a taste of the community that makes this place special!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of crossfit federal hill for almost a year and a half now. I’ve always been the person to go to the gym for a few months then stop for a few years... hahaha. Joining CFH was the best decision I’ve ever made and the only thing I’ve stuck with consistently, ever! Come for the fitness, stay for the community, amazing programming, and knowledgeable coaches. Seriously, I’ve never weight lifted in my life and the gains I’ve seen and the friends I’ve made are incredible. You won’t regret dropping in or becoming a member!

Fantastic experience: This place is amazing.

Fantastic experience: Knowledgeable staff and totally welcoming environment. This team truly makes CrossFit accessible for all -- including beginners!

Fantastic experience: I started as a member at CrossFit Federal Hill in 2014 and immediately felt the strong sense of community present and the passion that Geo and all the coaches have for helping people of all skill levels achieve their goals. I took a year off to travel and when I got back one of the first things I did was to stop back in and start my membership up again. I can’t say enough about the coaches, the programming, the facilities or the other members. As long as I am in Baltimore I will always be a member at CFH. If you are on the fence about giving it a shot just go and you won’t regret your decision!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great classes, and even better staff! Dropped in to quite a few boxes over the past couple years and Crossfit Federal Hill is at the very top of that list. Staff and members are extremely welcoming and make an otherwise intimidating experience very approachable for those new to crossfit

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of CFH for three years. I am over the traditional age of a CF athlete and was not athletic at all growing up. A friend convinced me to join and at first it was intimidating but the coaching is terrific and the facility is well maintained and spacious. The coaches know my abilities and are able to help me scale where I need to. They are very encouraging and spend time at EVERY workout showing the proper way to do the movements and provide feedback when needed. The owner is caring and accessible and I have thoroughly enjoyed being a member of CFH!

Fantastic experience: Hands down, one of the best fitness communities I've been a part of. The focus of the gym and coaches has been so helpful.. I've always felt supported regardless of the amount of "weight" or where I am in my own goals. If you're looking to join more than a "gym" and be part of a community, CFH is where you need to be!

Fantastic experience: As a former athlete I had some reservations about attempting to augment my workouts with crossfit, but what I found at Fed Hill CrossFit was an incredibly supportive but competitive environment. No matter your goals, Geo and his staff are there for you at all times to help you reach all of your goals. I would recommend anyone give their team a shot to show you how to take your fitness and level of community to a new place.

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Federal Hill has been nothing but stellar since the moment I walked in the doors. I came over from a smaller CF gym as I wanted a better experience and the moment I walked through the doors of CFH I knew I was going to get my money's worth. CFH gives you ever opportunity to better yourself not only through fitness with class WODs but also available personal training and Demand Training. CFH has a specific coach for nutrition that host meetings as well as even nutrition challenges to keep you on your toes. Regardless if you're a season veteran, college athlete or even mid 30's and think you're still an athlete, CFH has the tools for you. Being apart of the CFH community has opened so many new doors for me socially and personally. The community is the #1 reason I wake up and pack a gym bag everyday, I wouldn't change anything about it.

Fantastic experience: My husband and I have been members for a little over a year and have really loved our experience here! We are both extremely competitive with each other, so this has been a positive way for us to compete and work to get better at something we both love doing. All of the coaches at CFH are very knowledgeable and really care about the athletes they are working with, far beyond just handing out pointers during a workout. The gym is extremely clean and well kept, which I believe comes from having a dedicated staff who truly loves what they do. Thank you Crossfit Federal Hill!

Fantastic experience: I love Crossfit Federal Hill! The facility, the programming and the equipment are all top-notch, but I think what truly sets CFH apart from other gyms are the coaches and the community of this gym. The coaches are extremely passionate about helping every single person in the gym become the best athlete that they can be. And the community is equally as great! The owner, Geo, went above and beyond when I first joined to get me involved in competitions and to help me become part of the community. In addition to the class programming, CFH offers Demand Training. This has been a game changer for me. Before joining CFH, I had always wanted to become more competitive, but never knew where to start with programming. I love that CFH offers this competitive programming as a part of the regular gym membership. I really can’t say enough good things about this gym. If you are looking for a gym in the Baltimore area, look no further… CFH is the best choice!!!

Fantastic experience: World class gym. Big, lots of equipment, good ventilation. A real gem in the CrossFit crown.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely excellent! I have zero sports or athletic background, and I've always hated working out, going to the gym, doing any sort of exercise. But, about 5 months ago, I realized, after having two children, and being in my late 30s, I have to exercise and be healthy, and make it a long-term commitment. I turned to a friend and she told me she went to CrossFit. I laughed and said, that's crazy. There's no way. But, I visited a few classes, was curious, signed up for the Foundations class, and was hooked. I would have never guessed! I went from zero exercising to attending the 6:30am class 4-5 times/week. I love it! It's become part of my daily/weekly routine. Geo is a hardworking, caring, sincere, and passionate owner. He always responds promptly and thoroughly to my emails and questions. He knows members' names and stories. TR is an excellent Foundations coach. I learned so much. All of the coaches are top notch. They cheer you on, answer your questions, and have always helped me find an adequate progression or modification. I appreciate that they all take proper form and technique seriously. I convinced my husband to sign up, and a month and a half in, he's enjoying it and finding it's helping him get in shape to play better tennis. Thanks Geo and CrossFit FedHill!

Positive experience: I got cross but I didn't get fit!

Fantastic experience: Geo and the entire staff here are all wonderful! They work incredibly hard to make sure that you meet every goal that you have. Definitely recommend you try it out if you are looking to get into crossfit!

Fantastic experience: Best Crossfit Gym in the area! Coaching staff is very knowledgeable and their doors are always open!

Fantastic experience: CFH is great. I've been attending off an on for about four years and have watched it grow dramatically over that time (in terms of number of people and the size of the box). The coaches are all super nice and accommodating, and the spirit of community is very strong here with several social events held throughout the year. I can't recommend it highly enough!

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Federal Hill is easily the most enjoyable hour of my day. The coaches are great, the programming is effective, and the community is extremely supportive.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in while I was in town. I was truly impressed by how the coaches walk everyone through movements and what to pay attention to. While many of us knew what to do, it never hurts to perfect the work. Even as a drop in, they paid attention to me and helped me "fix" some issues I was having. Great coaching staff, great location. Go if you can

Fantastic experience: A great place! Coaches are knowledgeable, friendly and approachable. It's a stellar set- up with lots of space and equipment. And the community is always welcoming and encouraging.

Fantastic experience: CFH has first-class coaching and programming, and tons of class times/open gym opportunities. The staff's active investment in bettering the lives of their members extends beyond each session. Can't think of a more fun and healthy environment to workout in.

Fantastic experience: Attentive and friendly staff! The best CF gym in Baltimore, for sure. Don't let being new to CF scare you away from this place.

Fantastic experience: A lot of accessory classes offered, a plethora of social events, a welcoming and supportive community and challenging WODs... What's not to love?!?!

Fantastic experience: I'm a military member and I travel quite frequently allowing me to experience many a gym. By far, CrossFit Federal Hill has been one of my most favorite experiences! Geo (the owner) takes pride in his work and goes out of his way to help. Any time I'm in Baltimore I'll definitely be back!

Fantastic experience: There is a reason this place has EIGHTY TWO 5 star reviews...they are that good. Believe the hype. I was in town for work and needed to get a squat sesh in for a program I'm on. Talked to Geo a couple weeks in advance and got the link to sign up and pay for a drop in. He was very friendly and easy to make arrangements with. Wasn't sure what to expect when I showed up today, and was completely blown away by the expansive (I mean HUGE) and very well cared for facility, and even more impressed by the coaches. I was welcomed in by Blair and set up in a separate "open gym" space that had everything I needed to complete my work. Met Matt and Hugh as well who were both super friendly and hospital, getting me set up w/ tunes, weight belt, abmat...I mean, what more could a girl need! Thank you all!! If I'm ever back in Baltimore, I know who to call. You guys rock.

Fantastic experience: Since you’re here reading reviews of Crossfit Federal Hill, I’ll go ahead and assume you probably have one or both of the following questions: 1. Is CFH the best crossfit gym in Baltimore? 2. Is crossfit right for me? I can’t honestly answer the first question because CFH is the only crossfit gym I’ve tried in the city (a fact that should speak for itself, by the way). But I’ve been a member for over a year, and I truly can’t imagine a better gym—in Baltimore or anywhere else. The facility is first rate (huge space, plenty of clean and well-maintained equipment, lots of parking, etc.). The coaches are hands-on, knowledgable, compassionate people—they all have different styles, but I’ve learned a lot from each of them. And they have all, to a person, taken the time before, during, or after class to help me one-on-one (or to answer my stupid questions without making me feel stupid for asking them). The members at CFH are similarly great folks. They’re kind, supportive and a whole lot of fun to be around, and their skill/development level varies widely. On our PR board, for example, you’re just as likely to see “did my first pushup” as you are to see “did 12 ring muscle ups.” So, wherever you find yourself on your fitness journey—from newbie to competitor—you’ll feel at home here. Now, if you’re wondering if crossfit is right for you, well, that’s a pretty personal question and I won’t presume to answer it for you. All I’ll say is that it’s been very right for me, and I wish I’d started way sooner than I did. I’m stronger, more flexible, I have more endurance, my posture’s better, I have more energy, and I'm a generally happier dude than I was before I joined. It feels really good to feel this good, and I’m really glad CFH is in my life. I’d recommend CFH—and crossfit, in general—to absolutely everybody.

Fantastic experience: Experienced instructors. Great space and equipment in a convenient location.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Federal Hill is amazing! The coaching staff and programming is top notch. The staff always ensures the classes are stretched and takes the class through the movements in the workout to ensure proper technique and form. Highly recommend checking out CFH, if you live or are visiting Baltimore.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to CrossFit Federal Hill since June 2016. I was a member of another gym but I wanted something that challenged me and pushed me to do better. I looked up CrossFit on YouTube and thought "what the heck is this" I located one close to my job which was #CFH and immediately felt at home the minute I walked through the door. Geo explained to me what the foundation classes were so I signed up to learn the basics formations of each skill. I had no idea what a clean was let alone a burpee. Needless to say I've met some amazing people here, from the Coaching staff to the other members I'm definitely not leaving!!!!

Fantastic experience: Can't say enough good things about CFH. I've made a lot of amazing physical changes - gained strength, lost weight, learn new skills - but the most important changes have been mental. I have more confidence than I've ever had in my life, and every day can walk in for the day's WOD excited and leave proud of what my body was capable of. The coaches truly care, the community is so supportive, and the resources and programming are super effective. To anyone considering joining, DO IT - if you wanna change your life, this is the perfect place to help you do it.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member for about 3 months now and I love everything about CFH. The owner really cares about all of the members and takes the time to check in with everyone. All of the coaches are knowledgeable and make the classes fun. Aside from the training, the community at CFH is amazing and everyone makes you feel so welcome.

Fantastic experience: One of the few places that lives up to the hype. The owner is incredibly involved, the instructors are talented, inclusive and friendly, and the members have built a meaningful and vibrant community around the box. If you are thinking about starting CF or switching boxes, look no further than Crossfit Federal Hill.

Fantastic experience: Super space, big, nice equipment kept in good condition. Clean. Friendly knowledgeable coaches and welcoming community. Easy to find with parking. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I went to Crossfit Federal Hill for almost 2 years and couldn't recommend this place more highly. The coaches are awesome and really spend the time to focus on improving your technique unlike some other places. Also the members are all cool and make for a great community. Not only that the spaces are huge so there is plenty of room for people. If you are thinking of trying out a crossfit gym or just looking to drop in, this is the one.

Fantastic experience: Joining Crossfit Federal Hill is one of the best decisions you could make. The coaches are extremely knowledgable and supportive. The equipment is in great condition and well looked after. The owner, Geo, goes the extra mile to create a community where you always feel welcomed. You will never feel like "a number" at CFFH. The members are friendly and fun to work out with. CFFH offers intense workout sessions that can be scaled to meet each athlete's personal abilities. Additionally, there are strength training groups, endurance training drive classes, and occasional yoga. Again, the workouts and services are catered to the members - Geo is more than open to feedback and will truly listen and implement change so that CFFH works for every member.

Fantastic experience: I moved to Baltimore about a year ago and tried out a lot gyms in the area before I made this my gym. This gym is, by far, my favorite in Baltimore! What makes this gym great is the coaching staff and the members: all very knowledgable and helpful! Classes are fun and the community feeling is real here, everyone is friendly and encouraging during the workouts. The classes are always on time, which is great for folks on a schedule. This gym is a perfect fit for me and I love it!

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Federal Hill has been one of the best CrossFit communities I have been apart of since I started CrossFit in 2012. The coaches at CFH are attentive and encouraging, the quality of the equipment is great, and the overall atmosphere it's members create makes this a top-notch facility.

Fantastic experience: I'm having a lot of trouble starting this review because I just do not know where to begin. My experience here at CrossFit Federal Hill has been phenomenal. From the knowledgeable coaches, to the encouraging environment, there really is no better place to get in shape and to challenge yourself. It is always extremely intimidating starting something new but as soon as you walk in, you are immediately greeted by a ton of smiling/sweaty people just ready to motivate you into excellent shape. 5 stars for its facility & equipment. 5 stars for the community & coaches & 5 Stars for its overall Charm ;). Definitely check it out!

Fantastic experience: I worked out here for over 2 1/2 years and absolutely loved it. They have fantastic coaches and a very supportive community. The facility is huge and you never have to worry about running out of equipment. There are garage doors in the middle which make it possible to run two classes simultaneously without them interfering with each other. CFH is one of the things I miss most about leaving Baltimore and I highly recommend it to anyone in the area!

Fantastic experience: The owner/head coach, Geo, tries his hardest to make everyone happy and help them reach their fitness goals. The programming is great with most classes having either a strength or skill portion and then a metcon. Geo is constantly putting membership dues back into the gym and buying us great equipment - new barbells and weights, a pegboard and assault bikes were all purchased in the past year. The coaches are fantastic and have pushed me to do more than I thought I could. The only reason I left was because I had to move for work. I highly recommend Crossfit Federal Hill to anyone who is thinking about starting crossfit as well as advanced competitive crossfitters.
