Great coaches and community, very flexible program and exercises scaling! Works for any level, especially as they require the foundation classes first.

I am moving to NYC and tried True North out this week -- wow! I could tell what an amazing community this was after just three short days. The people, coaches, community and space far exceeded my expectations. As someone who has visited many CrossFit gyms, they are truly showing the best practices of a CrossFit gym. Thank you, True North!

Great gym, great owner, great team, great space, great equipment. The only CrossFit gym that has no ego and you can always do a variation that is better for you.

I come here every time I visit NYC and my experience has always been great. Programming is good, coaches are friendly and capable, location is right by the river, so for WODs that involve running, you get an amazing view. I will definitely be back next time I'm in town.

You'll get stronger, faster, and make friends along the way. Much like an 80s movie montage. The gym is kept clean, super spacious, and right next to the water for summertime runs. Best when the garage is open.

True North has one of the best CrossFit box in the city. Not only the location, right by the East River facing Manhattan, is ideal, but the box in itself feels authentic and extremely well-appointed for CrossFit training. Josh, the owner, is always around and helped me improved my technic. As I was visiting, I went for the 1-week access pass, and I couldn’t recommend it more!

I was in visiting family in Brooklyn for a few days so I needed a gym to go to. I reached out via email ahead of time and the response came back super quick. Got to the gym and I was greeted right away by the owner, Joshua. He took care of my friend and I. The facility was super clean and organized. As a gym owner myself I appreciate all of these things because I do the same for my members and drop-ins. I definitely would go back and I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for a gym.

Can't believe I hadn't written a proper review of True North yet - it's nothing short of the best-outfitted, cleanest, most welcoming CrossFit-style gym around. Josh, the owner, is strong as hell, but also patient, kind, and meticulous about form and training. Take his intro course, even if you know what you're doing, and you'll probably learn something.

Plus it's a cool enough space that it gets used for photo shoots, your outdoor runs (stop complaining) are along the East River, the community that frequents the gym is great - I've learned a lot from other members in addition to the coaches - and all the dogs that stop by are friendly (hi, Tonton!).

I'm not joking when I say that when my wife and I talk about moving back to NYC, Williamsburg would be our first-choice neighborhood because of True North.

Hands down the best gym in Williamsburg! My girlfriend and I work out here 5 days a week and it never gets old. You can be a total novice or high level athlete and there is a place for you in this gym. Very inclusive environment, with tons of good vibes all around. Most importantly it's Chewy approved ;)

I love everything about this box! Welcoming community will inspire you to reach your fitness goals.

Coaching is top-notch, with proper attention to mobility & technique. And class programming takes full advantage of the hour.

I shopped around for the right box, dropping in to a few other locations before landing here and am *so pleased* with my decision!

I started Crossfit this year as a New Years Resolution and can't believe how motivated I am to live a healthier life and become strong. As a German, new to New York, this was the best choice to make in terms of fitness, health and community.
The community is incredible - I have already made some great friends . The trainers are super professional and are paying a lot of attention on how you move well / your safety. I think this is, next to a broad variety on exercises, ( especially when you exercise a few times a week ) the most important thing.
The facilities and music as well as the variety of workouts are getting you in the mood you want and need - I have so much fun while Iam getting fit. Thank you, guys for the experience and support!

More than just a Crossfit box. Coach Mike and Coach Josh really show their passion for bringing novices and seasoned crossfitters alike into building a community as well and building our bodies. As someone new to Crossfit i really appreciate how inclusive they make everyone feel and never miss the chance to stop and explain as many times as needed to make sure you are comfortable with the movements.

Brooklyn Crossfit South Williamsburg is the best of the best! I joined the gym 9 months ago and was openly invited into a great community of coaches and fellow athletes, making the experience much more than just another night at the gym.

The programming keeps the workouts new and challenging, the coaches are all knowledgeable and attentive, and the scheduling can accommodate anyone's schedule. Unlike many boxes in Manhattan, South Williamsburg is a large above-ground facility with high ceilings and ample outdoor space to incorporate into the workouts.

Josh, Mike, and Kai all know how and when to push each individual in the gym, creating a welcoming yet competitive environment. This is the best box in NYC!

Mike Reynolds and the staff at Brooklyn Cross Fit South Williamsburg are the best. They are personable as well as knowledgeable.

They make everyone feel like family and that you can fit in regardless of skill set and level of fitness. If you remain committed you will undoubtedly see results. They have created an awesome box with an awesome atmosphere. We have a 6AM crew that has grown significantly since beginning and it keeps getting bigger and better.

You won't get a more enjoyable growing experience elsewhere.

This space is amazing and the community is really great. Even though there is another CF gym 2 blocks from my apartment, I’ve happily stayed at CFBrooklyn. Their coaches are really caring and the other members are very supportive of each other. They recently added some new Strong Man equipment and more open-gym hours so things got even better!

I joined Brooklyn Crossfit South Williamsburg in June of 2016 to get in shape before my 20th high school reunion and haven't looked back! My life has really transformed over the last 7 months and I am so excited to keep up the progress. Brooklyn Crossfit provides all of the encouragement, expertise and equipment you need to achieve your goals...you just have to show up and put in the effort!

With a wide schedule of classes, I was able to design a plan that worked for me. I started by going after work to their challenging evening WOD workouts and loved the good-natured, competitive atmosphere. In 2017, I started attending the 6am class to get my workouts in before the day even starts! The 6am crew ROCKS (impartial) and we challenge each other on a daily basis to a) show up, b) give it our best and c) achieve the goals we have set for ourselves.

If you think you might be interested in joining, come to an introductory class and give it a shot. That's what I did! I thought it might not be for me and was wrong! My body is transforming, my outlook is brightening, and most importantly, I'm seeing a direct correlation between my effort and results. You can't beat that!

First of all, it's dog friendly, so I can bring my dog Ollie with me everyday!!

The gym has a welcoming/supportive community with very competent and passionate coaches. The gym is always evolving with new equipment, different classes and well informed + structured programming.

Anyone new to Crossfit, or new to fitness should definitely come by and meet the pups, coaches and owners. New comers are very well received and encouraged!

Awesome place to do crossfit. They keep changing the place around so the place doesn't seem repetitive. The staff and the coaches are nice and very competent at what they do; they are very helpful and do a great job building community. The people that go there too are very nice and inclusive; there is definitely a good vibe when you're working out together. Another reason to go is to play with their cute dog Melo :)

I owned a CrossFit box for 6 years. Came to New York for a quick vacation and this was our first stop. This place is fantastic and the coaches/people were awesome. Programming was great and the vibe was friendly and dare I say old school? The view is dope as hell as well. Must drop in if you're a New or experienced Crossfitter

Did a drop-in class this past weekend with my partner and we both had a great time. Chris is awesome, he has a kind and warm energy that kept a hard WOD fun. He offered for us to return the next day to do 16.5, we had a date with the Statue of Liberty, but none the less appreciated the offer since we wouldn't otherwise have a chance. The ropes and weights were easily accessible and everything was really clean! I would definitely recommend a visit. Thanks for having us :)
