Origin Fitness, Home of CrossFit Burke

Fantastic experience: A place to start a new and healthier phase of your life. I had never tried CrossFit before I came here but I am confident that I found a very high caliber gym. The facility is very big and really well furnished but the real selling point is the quality of the staff and their teaching. I felt welcomed from the first day and never intimidated because I could barely do one pull up. Burke CrossFit is very much about building a community around results based exercise and fitness.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym. I had always wanted to try Crossfit, but was honestly quite intimidated. After going one time that was all gone. Jaime is a fantastic coach and really makes sure you are doing the appropriate workout the correct way. I am currently deployed, and the first thing I looked for when I landed was a gym. It was reassuring when I went in and knew what I was doing thanks to the great coaching and support at Crossfit Burke! Thank you!

Fantastic experience: This is a great gym. Everyone there from the owner to all the coaches are so kind and helpful. Best gym I have ever joined! I LOVE THE GYM and the workouts are amazing!!!! I leave there feeling confident and stronger each and every time. Thank you!!! -Lien

Fantastic experience: I've been going here for 3 months. The staff are excellent and the daily programs are enjoyable and very challenging. Having not going to a gym in at least 10 years, I was concerned at first that I would not be able to complete the workouts or get hurt. But those concerns quickly went away. The trainers help you with proper form at each workout and can scale the exercises to address your fitness level. I feel great and look forward to the next workout.

Fantastic experience: Have you been contemplating a 2015 resolution to get in shape? I suggest visiting Crossfit Burke to speak with Jaime, the owner. He will explain the benefits of crossfit, the program and community, and maybe provide a free introduction. I've been at CFB since they opened (year +) and though not new to Crossfit, have learned a tremendous amount while substantially improving my fitness and skills. Jaime and his staff are patient, experienced, good solid instructors, and develop unique programming to keep one fully engaged and challenged. I also like the friendships developed over shared workouts and post-workout chats.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I joined Crossfit Burke in January 2014. We are in our 40s and in a past life as a gymnast in the 1980s (or back in the 1900's, as our 11 year old daughter likes to say), my wife sustained some injuries that have come back to haunt her. When we joined, she had difficulty going up stairs (knees), lifting anything over her head (shoulders), picking up any weight (old blown lumbar disk) and running (all of the above). After 6 months, with excellent coaching and scaled down workouts for her, my wife says the Crossfit Burke team (Jamie, Stephanie and Jack) has put Humpty back together. She can do overhead barbell work, squats with weight on the shoulders, bench presses and even running, all of which were unthinkable in December. Whatever your fitness level, of lack thereof, give this a try. Great gym, great coaches, no meatheads. It will be the best money you have ever spent.

Fantastic experience: After a long road of medical crap, my body has no strength or stamina. Literally zero. I went to a free evaluation with the owner, and my daughter tagged along. After putting us through a great sweat fest that I was actually able to finish, he declared us both perfect candidates for CF. And he was right. I am by far the slowest, weakest and heaviest person in there (for now), and it doesn't matter one bit. The workouts are tailored to my abilities (or lack thereof), and I am working JUST as hard as everyone else in there. My strong and fit daughter is learning proper lifting technique and she loves it. The icing on the cake is the people in the classes with me. They offer encouragement and you know from the beginning that you belong. It's the best workout I've ever had and definitely the best environment I've ever exercised in. I don't give fake reviews and I don't give reviews lightly. This place is the real deal.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to CrossFit Burke for well over a year now, and I can’t say enough good things about this gym. I’ve seen vast improvements in my strength and cardiovascular endurance all while under the support of a great community. All the coaches here really focus on training you in the proper form and technique of the exercises while keeping it fun and helping you scale as appropriate.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Burke really is great for any athletic ability. The coaches really care about each individual and the members really feel like a family. I can't recommend this place enough!

Fantastic experience: Knowledgeable coaches, welcoming community. I felt like a long-time member on my first day. All the coaches have helped and supported my fitness goals, and I always feel challenged and excited for the workouts.

Fantastic experience: An incredible gym and community filled with superb coaches who genuinely care about improving your health and fitness. I have seen a significant difference in myself since joining CrossFit Burke!

Fantastic experience: This gym has sincere, caring and careful but encouraging coaches which is exactly what I was looking for and needed. Friendly patrons, knowledgeable staff, unpretentious. Loving it!

Fantastic experience: We love this gym!! Our 13 year old was looking for something to keep her active during the winter months and asked if she could try CrossFit. I was so nervous until I met the coaches and saw how incredible they are with her on a personal level but mostly on a safety level. They have the best balance of push and scale to keep her from hurting herself and making sure she builds her foundation before anything else. We love this gym and are so grateful we found this ‘gem’ for our daughter!!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Been doing CrossFit for about two months now. Great gym and great community. Coaches do a great job making sure fundamentals and technique is sound

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of CrossFit Burke since 2014, the owner Chad, and the entire coaching staff are awesome. No matter where you are on your fitness journey you are welcomed here. From absolute beginner to ready for the CF Open there is space for you. Seriously, if you have been looking for a place to help you improve this is it. Most classes have between 5-15 people and with that you get friendly, non judgmental people, no barbell gym rats, no mirrors, just solid workouts. The cool thing about CrossFit is that it's scalable, so every workout can be modified to your skill and ability and absolutely 100% zero judgement.

Fantastic experience: This is more than a CrossFit gym. This is professional level strength and conditioning training with emphasis on technique and tailored to individual goals. I’ve been to CrossFit gyms around Los Angeles, San Diego, and within Missouri and none have been this well thought out. It is also very welcoming no matter what the experience level for the individual athlete.

Fantastic experience: Origin is a fantastic gym. The coaches are really dedicated to seeing you improve yourself. They push you to your limits in a safe and healthy way. The gym has tons of great equipment and the team is always adding new equipment. If you are thinking of joining, do it!

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a friendly gym with knowledgeable and professional staff, CrossFit Burke is the place to be. I joined 6 years ago and I love it. Everyone is so friendly and the staff is very patient. The staff works with you to adjust the exercises to fit your abilities. Everyone in the class focuses on their own workout and I never feel like anyone is judging whether or not I am doing a movement good enough. The owner, Chad, is personally involved and always takes time to answer any questions that I have and is very encouraging. I had a health issue in 2018 but continued to go to CrossFit when I could. Following recovery I was left with pain, flexibility and strength issues. I started working with one of their coaches and within 6 months many of my problems greatly improved! I highly recommend CrossFit Burke!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Fantastic coaching and programming! I’ve been a member for 2 years and love the training environment between CF, strong man and the additional clinics available during the year. The PTs and nutrition coaching onsite are other added benefits.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Burke has an environment that promotes positivity, growth and introspection when it comes to your physical fitness. I have benefited the Workout of Day (WOD) and thru these workouts the trainers help you focus on areas that will improve your physical training . I have also branched into some of the other programs offered at Crossfit Burke, thru the additional instruction and training I have seen the benefits. The atmosphere created at Crossfit Burke is one where the trainers are insightful, honest, tough and positive. The gym promotes a family atmosphere that promotes communal support and well being amongst its members. I would highly recommend Crossfit Burke to any that ask.

Fantastic experience: When I first came to Virginia, I was looking for a new CrossFit gym to be part of. At first, I didn’t feel like I found one that was the right one. Eventually, I can across CrossFit Burke. I’ve been here for about 6 months now. Coaches are very helpful and supportive. The athletes are supportive, and help you in any way they can. I started at 225 lbs and within six months. I dropped down to 195 lbs. They have a variety of programs and I would highly recommend this gym to everyone.

Fantastic experience: I've had several boot camp / CrossFit sessions at Origin Fitness and I'm very pleased with my experience. I drive by every day, as I live in the area, and Chad the owner has been very attentive in responding to my initial inquiry to learn more, answered my questions and made me feel very comfortable to sign up at his gym. Trainers, Todd, Chad, Matt and Andy are very kind and helpful. I really appreciate the fact that they jump right in and help with form. They also have very specific stretches before and after the workouts that target the exact areas that we worked that day. I've done other boot camp classes at another gym for a long time without this level of guidance and really like that the trainers at Origin are right there to help each step of the way. This place is also very clean. They make sure that all the equipment is wiped down thoroughly after each use and then everything is sanitized on top of that. I signed up for the package that allows as many classes as you'd like. So if I want to attend in the morning or evening I can. I appreciate the flexibility. The classes definitely kick your butt which is exactly what I was hoping for!

Fantastic experience: My decision to join Crossfit Burke completely transformed my overall fitness level. From the time I first met Chad Ciri and his team to the present, I've been challenged, encouraged, and motivated to achieve my goals in a comprehensive manner (diet, exercise). I couldn't be more satisfied with the results, their subject matter expertise, and the community atmosphere. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for something new, broadening, and tailorable to your needs.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism Chad and the Origin Fitness team are top notch and each workout will challenge you in a different way. I highly recommend them if you are looking to take your workouts to the next level.

Fantastic experience: The staff and athletes have been great: super helpful and support supportive!! I'm only a few weeks in (after a multi-year hiatus at different locations), but I am incredibly impressed with this Box!!

Fantastic experience: My wife and I have been going here for right around a month now and we couldn't be happier. The folks in our early morning classes are super friendly and the coaching staff are professional and always on the lookout to make sure everyone is training safely. Workouts are definitely challenging but incredibly rewarding, and everything is designed to be scaled up or down to your current level of fitness. 5 stars, and easy for me to give it!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym..awesome coaches with strong community among the athletes!

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough about the positive impact that Chad, Todd and the CrossFit Burke family have made in my life. CrossFit Burke has helped me with functional movement and regaining strength after an ankle injury. That progress has been further enhanced by taking advantage of the personal training offered at the gym. Working with Todd, I have really pushed my physical boundaries farther than I ever thought I could and have been making consistent progress. CF Burke also offers a nutritional program with Jen. She takes a holistic approach to overall well-being rather than a quick fix answer. I truly appreciated Jen’s straight forward, no BS attitude. She offers guidance and information on not only the importance of nutrition but also sleep, meditation, meal prep tools, stress relief, and consistency.

Fantastic experience: Chad and all the amazing coaches at CrossFit Burke have really put in the time, effort, and dedication required to build a real community. While yes, the workouts will push your mind and body, this isn't a "scary Crossfit gym." You will be working-out side by side with families, all ages, and all fitness types. Folks here will take the time to get to know your name and cheer you on, and the coaches will be behind you every step of the way! Check this place out, you won't regret it!

Fantastic experience: I had been interested in trying CrossFit for some time before going to CrossFit Burke, but I was nervous about being a beginner. My initial meeting with Chad to assess my fitness level and my first class put me at ease! Everyone has been so nice, and the coaches are always quick to help me fix my form or do something better so that I don't hurt myself and improve. I've been to almost every class time and the variety of attendees really emphasizes how CrossFit Burke is for anyone and everyone.

Fantastic experience: I came to Chad & company with zero lifting experience. CrossFit has always been something I’ve wanted to get into, but was always worried about not getting a good coach and/or support. Chad and Todd were with me every step along the way, making me feel comfortable and safe with my form at all times. Great crew to work with, and it really does feel like family there.

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Burke is a gym for all ages and fitness levels. I'm a 50+ year old woman who has been a member for 3 years. Classes are geared for top-level athletes and beginners. The professional coaches take the time to watch every athlete to ensure that they are performing the movements correctly. Injury prevention is a priority. Most importantly, they care about your health and fitness and will coach you to achieve things you never thought possible.

Fantastic experience: Second-to-none coaching at CrossFit Burke! This place is like home to us—the coaches and members are family! Chad, Todd, and Andy are amazing at their craft and personally ensure each movement is modeled clearly and scaled to your ability level so all athletes feel welcome and train in their individual sweet spots, protected to avoid potential injury, and developing strength/mobility/cardio conditioning. New to CF? Come on down! A regular at your old box? We’d love to have you join us! Getting ready for a competition—let’s DO this! I trust these coaches with my health AND my children—CrossFit Burke is a family affair with several of our children and my husband training too. I’ve never been more strong, fit, confident, and welcomed—we love you, CFB! BONUS: their gymnastics, barbell, Oly lifting, Strongman, private and semi-private PT sessions are all AMAZING.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality CrossFit Burke has felt like home since day one. The ownership and coaches are amazing, and I look forward to the workout every day! Stop on by!

Fantastic experience: This has been my fitness home for 4 yrs. I was in my 40's when I started, had exercised on my own. Got to a point where I wasn't challenging myself anymore and needed a change. I saw Crossfit Burke on FB and thought I would look into it. I talked to the owner who educated me about what Crossfit is about. Personally, I hate all cardio workouts so I was immediately interested when he told me that CF is many exercises, esp weight training. After taking the intro classes, I was hooked. I had never sweated so much working out, ever, on my own. The coaches were aware that I was new and made sure they showed me the correct way to move to prevent injury (very important). Each class had different exercises so it was never boring. After 6 months, I noticed I had only a few pounds (not really my goal) but had trimmed down. My physique was more svelt and gained more muscle (that's why my weight hadn't dropped a ton). I more strong and confident than I had ever had when I was younger. And the coach had said, once you work hard to achieve this level of fitness, you don't want to lose it so you keep working at it. And the coaches continue to help me through my fitness journey. And a huge plus is the friends I have made at CF Burke, we all support each other to do better, a great community!

Fantastic experience: I love CrossFit Burke! I've been coming since 2018, and after visiting a few different boxes, I feel strongly that I've gotten the best value here. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable about how to move in the safest and most effective ways. The programming is well thought out and rigorous. The gym members are super friendly and welcoming. Overall, CrossFit Burke offers major value, and I look forward to coming in every day for a good old fashioned butt kicking!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality Overall a great gym! The atmosphere is great and inclusive, and the trainers are very knowledgeable. I constantly felt safe training here under the eyes of the trainers and the sufficient precautions they've taken since covid. Anyone interested in doing Crossfit should make this gym their first stop.

Fantastic experience: I'm glad I found this gym! Great staff/coaches that always teach the proper technique for each exercise during every session. They monitor every individual, no matter their personal skill level, and give pointers and/or recommendations to improve technique. Crossfit Burke maintains a welcoming community/family atmosphere where all are welcome. Plenty of events throughout the year to participate in friendly competitions and contribute to deserving charities.

Fantastic experience: Origin Fitness/CrossFit Burke has been a wonderful addition to my daily routine. I had looked for a CrossFit gym across the metro area for some time and found CrossFit Burke to be knowledgeable, friendly, and family oriented. If you are looking for a gym that will both challenge and coaching you into improvement, I highly recommend this gym.

Fantastic experience: I joined the CrossFit Burke over two years ago and have found the coaches and programming to be fantastic. The smaller class size ensures that coaches can focus on each person to make sure you're doing the movements correctly, and you can adjust the workouts based on your fitness level. I've enjoyed their extra classes, such as gymnastics and olympic lifting, and my daughter goes the the gym as well. I recommend CrossFit Burke to anyone looking for a friendly and challenging experience.

Fantastic experience: A top flight facility with a knowledgeable staff. The coaches are positive, patient and willing to scale the workouts to your ability level. The other participants are inviting and supportive. A great place to improve you fitness regardless of your current fitness level. I highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I signed up here about a month and a half ago. Coming from Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, I've been on again, off again nursing a lower back issue. I was skeptical on working out and injuring myself again, but Coach Todd Tolosa has been instrumental and amazing in not only the work outs, but personally helping me with back stretches and work outs. Since I've been working with him I have had no back pain, and I'm strengthening my back so I can work up in weight. Overall the staff here is very nice, and approachable. I've seen them personally handle people from all walks of life at different fitness levels. I cannot recommend Origin enough.

Fantastic experience: My husband and I come in every year when we are in town for the holidays. The gym is wonderful - great coaches, fun atmosphere, and perfect for people of all ages and fitness levels. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym - Chad and his team of coaches have created a truly special place. The coaches are all cross fit experts. They are especially adept at tailoring cross fit workouts to each participating athlete so that they can exercise safely. The coaches pay close attention to all class athletes. They provide recommendations to help the athlete perform and get better. Origin fitness is a friendly environment with a very positive atmosphere. People leave their egos at the door. The focus is on having a good time while getting fit and stronger. There's something for everyone - from the out of shape beginner to the well practiced cross fit strength training experts. I've been a member for two years - after a 20 year gym hiatus - I've greatly improved my strength and aerobic fitness. I'm healthier and feel better. I highly recommend Origin Fitness.

Fantastic experience: Chad and his team are phenomenal. I dropped in for a Friday evening class to find a fun mix of classmates of all ages and physical fitness backgrounds. Tamia led the class and provided great insight into all of the movements in the workout and made sure that each person had the appropriate scale. The facility is expansive, very clean, and has all the equipment you could ever need. I highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: This is truly a superior CrossFit experience. CFB has a large and light space with quality equipment. The coaches and the owner are personable, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. If you have never tried CrossFit before (I had never tried before starting at CFB) don't be intimidated - the coaches are fantastic! I'm stronger now at 36 years old than I have ever been before and I give all the credit to CrossFit Burke. After I had my second child I thought I just would never be "athletic" again...but this experience has changed my mind about that.

Fantastic experience: I do not have any sort of athletic background; no sports, no gymnastics, nothing. So to say I was intimidated to start Crossfit, in my mid 40s, is a total understatement. What I do have is the most encouraging and supportive husband on the planet, so I followed his lead and dived in a month after he started. The owner and Head Coach, Jamie, was/is incredibly supportive and understanding that I was coming in as a truly bottom-rung beginner. And the Coaches ... all equally stellar, professional, knowledgeable, and encouraging. My perfect match on-ramp Coach's mantra "just show up and do what you can do, don't worry about what you can't do (yet)" still gets me through many a workout. Thank you Todd! I have yet to come across a Coach that has any sort of "you can't do that?" air to them. We all start somewhere and they are genuinely there to help take you from where you're at to where you'd like to be. I started CF with a tear in one of my rotator cuff muscle that presently is keeping me from being able to do a high-pull. My Physical Therapist and Orthopaedic MD agree, CF under the supervision of these coaches is playing a big role in the healing process as the entire shoulder complex is getting stronger. Again, the staff is so accommodating and always ready to give me alternative movements so I can still put in the work whilst working through this issue with my shoulder. Don't let an injury prevent you from starting at Crossfit Burke! Like marriage, and life in general, you'll get out of this what you put into it. I have never worked so hard in my life as I have the past six months at CFB. But the personal achievements thus far are mind blowing in my mind. Let's be honest, when you're new to CF every WOD is a PR moment, but some of the most profound changes I've experienced thus far: I used to not be able to touch my toes (seated on floor with legs out in front of me). Now I can; with ease. I used to not be able to do a strict push-up. Now I can. Thank you Alex G. for post WOD homework that got me there. I used to have (daily) severe sciatic pain down right leg. I literally commuted with a folded pillow case under my right sit bone just to get through any length of time in the car. All of that, completely gone! Lastly, the community. Amazing. Unlike your typical gym where creepers abound and you put in earbuds and avoid eye contact with everyone because of them ... CF is truly a different thing altogether. I am SO ENJOYING getting to know the people in the classes I attend. Everyone supports each other and cheers each other on no matter your skill level. Truly. It's a time and finance commitment, indeed. But it's SO worth the investment. I'm a true convert to CF. I'm all in, and I'm blessed to be a part of this community.

Fantastic experience: Had a great experience at Origin Fitness. Did a drop-in week at a very reasonable rate. Great coaching and facility! You'll enjoy calling Origin your home gym or stopping by for a drop-in anytime.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! The staff is incredibly warm and welcoming, and makes you feel at home from day one. I have tried many different fitness programs and found it hard to stick to any of them. The atmosphere here makes you want to keep coming back!

Fantastic experience: Just completed a 6 week NU You fitness challenge for an 50+ group. I was apprehensive at first, but was made to feel at home and comfortable quickly enough. The staff and fellow challenge members are great, and I'm looking forward to the next level of training with this awesome group and facility!

Fantastic experience: I dropped in for the week over the holidays and had a great experience. Jamie was very responsive on email prior to my visit and the coaches have been fantastic. Todd coached most of the WODs I attended and does a great job - I learned a lot! The L3, L2, L1, and LM programing is some of the most fine tuned scaling I have seen. The box is very clean, has great equipment, and a very welcoming community for new members / drop-ins. Thank you all!

Fantastic experience: I had the opportunity to meet Jamie, the owner and head coach at Crossfit Burke as well as his entire staff. They were amazing in so many ways. To start, they make the entire crossfit experience fun yet very challenging. From the adult training programs all the way to their programs for kids, the staff totally engages with their athletes to ensure a great workout done smart and safely. If you are looking for a crossfit gym, I recommend you check out Crossfit Burke, you won't be disappointed. Meyer
