CrossFit NYC – Where Strength Meets Purpose
CrossFit NYC (Flatiron) is the oldest CrossFit affiliate in the world (2005). We are first and foremost a teaching / coaching facility.
We have supervised more CrossFit workouts than anyone, period. Our classes include scaling and substitution options that allow beginners as well as those who are older, less advanced, or recovering from injuries to proceed safely.
Our instructors are hired and retained based on their coaching skills, not on their ability to look good, pick music, and cheer. Our members typically leave class saying that they learned something that day.
We offer CrossFit, Hyrox, Strength, and Olympic Lifting classes, because one size does not fit all, and we offer private training.
If you’re wondering whether CrossFit NYC is right for you, just ask yourself whether you want to improve your fitness (regardless of where you are starting from)? If your answer is yes, then we want you as a member, and we will work hard with you to accomplish your goals.
The Most Experienced Coaches in NYC
A coach isn’t just someone who tells you what to do—they’re the architects of progress, the motivators in tough moments, and the experts who ensure you train safely and effectively. At CrossFit NYC, our coaching staff isn’t just highly certified—they’ve logged thousands of hours refining technique, preventing injury, and developing champions.
Take Coach Brian, who started at CrossFit NYC as a teenager and has since coached over 10,000 classes. Or Coach Jim, a regional CrossFit veteran who has trained competitive athletes and everyday gym-goers alike. Every coach here is invested in your success, whether it’s mastering your first pull-up, fine-tuning a clean & jerk, or preparing for an elite competition. At CrossFit NYC, you don’t just train—you learn, improve, and become the athlete you were meant to be.

At CrossFit NYC, we don’t follow fitness trends—we set the standard. Our vision is to build a gym where anyone can train like an athlete, no matter their starting point. We believe in real progress, smart training, and an environment where every member feels valued.
