CrossFit® ThunderHawks: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Amazing staff and facilities
Fantastic experience: Absolutely recommend CrossFit Thunder hawks. Moving here from a small town we came across this place by chance post COVID and it has been more than just a gym. As a single mom with kids varying ages it's hard to keep them all entertained at the same time and make friends. Coming to Thunder Hawks we found way more than we were expecting. The coaches were all super helpful and welcoming! The athletes followed right behind them. It is so cool to see the children and adults come together and encourage, accept and treat you like family. The owners are such amazing humans and you can feel how genuine they are not just about your health but caring about you and your family as real life people.
Thank you so much Victoria! We’re so happy you found us and that you and the kids find a place they belong. This means a lot to us. We’re so happy to see all of you tonight.
Fantastic experience: This g6m has a great atmosphere, and the coaches are excellent. It's a very non-threatening, family-oriented environment.
Thank you David. We appreciate you and your beautiful family. So excited you are on board adding value to our program.
Fantastic experience: It's now been 11 months since we joined the Thunderhawks family. This weekend 4 of us competed is the crossfit open. What a great place to better ourselves.
We’re so happy you found us! We appreciate you. I love to see all the progress from all of you!
Fantastic experience: Our whole family loves going to CFTH. They are each excited to share their times and wins after workouts. I am not doing it for weight loss so much, but after 2 weeks have lost 1.5 inches in my waist alone. I feel better about myself when we finish each workout and so excited looking forward to the next workout! And this place is for everyone! Each workout is adjustable to each person’s fitness level. Beginner to elite all in one hour! ️♀️
We’re so ex tied you found us and that your family has found a great place to thrive and belong! We appreciate your kind words and support.
Fantastic experience: My family loves CrossFit ThunderHawks! It is so much more than a gym. It is a fun, safe place for our kids to not only build healthy habits for life; but also a place to grow confidence and strong character. Each coach is knowledgeable and encouraging. The workouts are scaled for each person’s level of previous activities and abilities. They gently push the kids to be their best physically and emotionally and genuinely get excited about their accomplishments. Because of the expectations set, the kids are kind, encourage each other and really function as a team. It is hard work, but these kids come in every day because they love being there. All of the above can be said for the adult classes as well. My husband and I, as well as our kids, are members and it is such a fun and bonding experience to be challenged together daily. The owners, Anti Nelly and Javier are just wonderful people who care about their community. They are also doctors and several of the other coaches are nurses, so you can feel safe about your family’s physical safety while working out there. I am so thankful to Anti and Javi for this space that they’ve created for our kids, our family and our community. If you try a class for yourself or for your children, you’ll be welcomed in by current members and I’m sure you will love it as much as we do!
Fantastic experience: Great gym
Fantastic experience: Great gym offering excellent support-the coaches are all great. Jenn G is the definition of a great coach. She somehow knows just how to both encourage and accommodate so that I can keep moving despite those injuries and ailments that come with growing older. It’s important to know I can go at my own pace (so I can keep coming back!) Overall a great gym!
Fantastic experience: I have been around Crossfit for around 12 years and have a few coaching certifications. I left Crossfit when I got older and felt like there really wasn't a place for my aging body in Crossfit. With some encouragement from my daughter I decided to give Crossfit ThunderHawk's masters program a try. What a great place. Coaches who are welcoming, careful, and willing to make Crossfit work for me. ThunderHawk has a family atmosphere, and it grew organically from a kid and teen program to a family Crossfit that welcomes people of all ages. I am so happy to be back at Crossfit after a 5 year break and am glad I found and joined Thunderhawk.
Fantastic experience: This is the best youth fitness center in New Mexico!!!!
Fantastic experience: This past Saturday (April 25th) was my second Festivus games hosted by this box and it was AWESOME! Both times! Organized, stayed on time and people at the event and host volunteers were great!! I got the same feed back form folks who competed from out of town! I don't go to a "box" but if i do decide to drop in for a work out, they will be my first choice!!
Fantastic experience: They are so frinedly and welcoming here. My wife and I are travel nurses not from the area and they made us feel right at home. Wish we could bring em all with us when we leave.
Fantastic experience: We went for a fund raiser for Darion Jarrot. Was so pleased what they did to raise money for our NM State Police. God Bless you all!!!
Fantastic experience: I love everything about this CrossFit Box. They're family friendly, very welcoming, and help you every step of the way to accomplish your fitness and health goals. All the coaches are amazing and the owners truly care about their members and the community.
We are so lucky to have you and family to be a great part of our box family! Thanks for your kind words.
Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality
Fantastic experience: Thanks for hosting Festivus PAIRs 2021, ThunderHawks! A superbly run event with great volunteers and well-trained judges. Owners were everywhere, making sure that special needs (I'm 74 and needed scaling for some lifts) were met quickly and effectively. A sterling example of how a good CrossFit box and special events should be run. Thanks again, CrossFit ThunderHawks!
You are welcome! We hope to have you all back soon!
Fantastic experience: As I have began to train for my first year as a college athlete the Thunderhawk community has welcomed me, trained me, and treated me like family. They have helped me grow physically, prepared me for the weight room in college, pushed me, and have been some of my biggest supporters. Everyone here treats you like family and pushes you to do your best. I truly can't express what a positive impact the Thunderhawk community has had on both my athletic and personal life.
Thanks so much Galicia! As a college soccer athlete, this means a lot to us! We are so excited for the future ahead, you’re fierce when it comes to training! You are stronger physically and mentally. You’re so ready!
Fantastic experience: If you want to give your child an opportunity to grow both mentally and physically this is the place.They are so passionate about what they do, and have such an amazing attitude. My children expressed they felt welcomed and loved.
Thank you Christina ❤️❤️
Fantastic experience: This group kept us going online and updated the gym for June 1st reopening with a well thought out strategy to give each person their own space and access to equipment for continued COVID19 precautions. It is AMAZING.
Thank you Danita! ❤️
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Crossfit Thunder Hawks for a year now. They are very experienced and careful.The owners are very nice and so friendly. It’s really amazing to work with such amazing people. Thank you Crossfit Thunder Hawks!
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Crossfit Thunderhawks a place where both parents and children can exercise and have a good time. I met coach Jonathan today and really appreciate his support and patience. It's been 4 months since my last workout and the group gave me a warm welcome. It’s hard to come back and exercise but this is an amazing place with great adults and parents supporting each other. I recommend this place to all Rio Rancho families. Thanks to all the coaches for the support .
❤️❤️❤️

Thank you!
Positive experience: Great workout. The staff was helpful with technique and the other people in class were very welcoming.
Hope to see you back!
Fantastic experience: Crossfit has been amazing for my son (8 when he joined, now 9). He is achieving things he never thought possible. I have seen him grow leaps and bounds, not just physically but emotionally as well. He is now excelling at physical activities that used to be difficult for him, and the result is that his confidence is through the roof. The owners and coaches are passionate and strive to continually improve the program. The environment that has been created is positive, supportive, and lots of fun! I can't wait until my other child can participate as well!
Thank you Pereira! We love coaching kids like yours and we're so happy to see him evolve. We appreciate the kind words.
Fantastic experience: Great BOX! Dropped in from out of town and will definitely be back. Great people and great coaches.
Thanks!
Fantastic experience: I was in Rio Rancho for business and dropped in at Crossfit Hellbox. The coach and class members were all were very welcoming, supportive, and motivational. The signup process online was super easy too which is a bonus! Whether you're in town for work, or thinking about starting crossfit in the area, I highly recommend this gym!
Fantastic experience: Great coaching with awesome cues. A very clean facility with an awesome community!
Fantastic experience: Visiting from out of town and dropped in for three days. I'm already missing you guys! VERY friendly and encouraging people. Incredibly knowledgeable and helpful coaches. Thank you, CrossFit Hellbox! This has become my home box away from home!
Fantastic experience: I was a drop-in on an 11am class and everyone was friendly, helpful and encouraging. They do have showers which is a huge plus if you're a traveler. Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: HellBox is more than just a place of physical fitness, it's a community of like minded people who push and support each other to be their very best, not just in crossfit but in life. I've been a member for a little over a year now. I have never met a group of people that are so supportive in a competitive environment. The coaches have given me the skills I need to be able to almost fully RX in just one year and the owners have been so supportive daily and in all six of the competitions I have competed in this year. For years I've struggled to find my niche in life and I have found in the sport of crossfit, and more importantly at Hellbox. Since I started it's been one of the best parts of my day, even if it was a brutal workout. I've made friendships with people of all backgrounds and ages that are there for me even on the worst days. I recommend this box to everyone who is not only trying to improve on their fitness but looking for a community. #strongereveryday
Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic Box! True CF WODs, supportive community, top-of-the-line equip. Visitors are always welcomed here. Great community reputation. I highly recommend!!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Crossfit Hellbox for five years and it has been an amazing experience. The trainers are top notch and you will feel inspired and motivated to succeed with your fitness goals. Instead of feeling like a nameless face at a Globogym you will be a part of a family.
Fantastic experience: Great community feel and proficient friendly trainers
Fantastic experience: Great, friendly, clean place! Fun place to drop in!
