This is a really nice space, and Coach Maura gave very good cues and managed to give each member of a large class some individual attention. I was only dropping in on vacation, but the programming seems very good. I really enjoyed the workout. The crossfit community vibe and camaraderie were missing here, and that was a bit of a let down.

Spending the weekend in Rittenhouse visiting our daughter. Dropped in for the Saturday 9:00 am parter WOD with Coach Mike. The program was very well balanced, great for any level athlete. Spoke with Goerge earlier in the week was very welcoming. Mike ran a great class. He was motivating, provided very knowledgeable instruction and demonstration of each movement. This would be my home box if we lived closer. I highly recommend this well run fitness gym.Thank you for keeping it about the fitness and safety of members.

Will auto renew your membership without any notification. I was injured with a torn shoulder. The owner charged me for the rest of the year plus cancellation fee, while I haven’t been to the gym in 6months. I contacted to reconcile and he refused. I had been paying in full the months I was out for the shoulder tear. That didn’t seem to matter. Seems in bad taste.

Dropped in 🧒while in town for a visit. My favorite πŸ™πŸ»thoughtful touch: the local meters run map. πŸ›€οΈAs a frequent drop in, I usually have to follow the locals for the 800m. But Rittenhouse has a big map posted at the frontπŸ‘

Joined on a student membership for the summer and really enjoyed my experience. All the trainers were highly knowledgeable (and incredibly athletic) and made sure everyone felt welcome in the gym. When I was dealing with a shoulder injury, they were eager to make accommodations to make sure I could still participate in workouts. Would highly recommend giving it a shot!

I decided to try CrossFit for the first time and dropped in at CrossFit Rittenhouse. They couldn’t have been nicer. I felt very welcomed and they helped me through everything. I’m seriously considering CrossFit instead of conversational lifting and this place would be a great fit. If you’re considering CrossFit or looking to switch gyms definitely give this place a try !!πŸ‘

Very friendly cross-fit box! I'm here 1 week for business (living in Switzerland), and found you on Google. It was easy to drop in, and the session was just perfect, both dynamic and fun. I will recommend you everywhere I go!

New to Crossfit? Crossfit skeptic? THIS is the place for you! This is a place that will challenge you to be better, faster, strong, and happier, all in an environment that will challenge but support you along the day. The stereotypes of CF being too "culty" or too "dangerous" have no place here. Everyone is welcome and your instructor will watch you like a hawk to ensure you are staying strong and healthy, especially when new.

Probably the most unique aspect of the gym is the behavior of its members. While this is something that the management cannot control, it can be role modeled, which is clearly what is going on over here! Two members noticed I had popped in for the first time while wearing the "I'm a new girl" look on my face, so they made it a point to come over and introduce themselves to me while offering words of encouragement. That's something I certainly didn't find in the other gyms!

If you are reading this and have even the slightest twinge of curiosity about CF, or are visiting the area, follow that feeling and c'mon in! If you see me say hi, because I am now a member, and promise to pay it forward!

I dropped in once while I was briefly in town and it was fantastic! People were friendly, and made some dinner recommendations after class. The coach was great, made some very helpful comments on my form. The class was small- you have to reserve your spot ahead of time- which allowed the coach to be attentive to all the athletes! I had a great time here and I would definitely drop in again if I were back in town.

#TheRit is the first Crossfit community I joined & I hope to be here a long time. Coach Ash, Chris & Jamie are sweet, caring, informative & help you learn to love the process. Also, a fabulous place to meet awesome, genuine people. I've felt a boost in my happiness since joining Crossfit Rittenhouse... glad I'm back on a wonderful, refreshing work out routine!

Crossfit Rittenhouse is the best gym in the city. I was nervous at first to try crossfit but Coach Ash and Coach Chris made me feel so comfortable. It's been six months and it was truly the BEST decision of my life. The community is unmatched, it is so welcoming. Perfect place to drop in!

Becoming a member at Crossfit Rittenhouse has been the best decision I have ever made. First of all, you couldn't ask for a more welcoming environment. For the first month I was absolutely terrified, but Coach Ash is incredibly encouraging and supportive while pushing you to accomplish things you never thought your body could do. I've only been a member for 6 months, but my life has been completely changed. Best gym ever!!!

Been working with head coach Ash for years before I moved to Philly. And couldn't have been happier to see him come to Philadelphia. By far the best Crossfit gym I've been a part of, with the best coaching I've ever had. Including everywhere I've dropped in. Nobody cares more and focuses more on form and quality movements like Ash, and the coaches at Rittenhouse.

The coaches know every single member and know exactly how advanced they are, and what they should be doing to scale their workouts. They never push members to do more than they are comfortable with, and I have never once felt like I was out of my comfort zone at Rittenhouse, or with Coach Ash.

Anybody considering joining Crossfit or looking for a Crossfit gym would be doing themselves a disservice if they didn't drop in and check out Crossfit Rittenhouse

Dropped in for a wod while visiting Philly. Everyone was very friendly and encouraging! I even ended up leaving the rit with some new skills:) Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Crossfit Rittenhouse will definitely become a stop for me whenever I am back in the city!

Visited Philly for the weekend and had to do a CrossFit drop-in. This gym does not disappoint - great location, super cool branding and Coach Ash is the absolute best in the game.

Crossfit has changed my life and Crossfit Rittenhouse is the place to do it. I have been a member of for a long time and experienced how the gym improved lots since Ash took control. Ash is a great coach and has always great advice to give. On top of that, he takes excellent care of the gym buying new equipment regularly keeping the place in great condition.
I strongly recommend Crossfit Rittenhouse to anyone who likes to be active and have fun with a great group of people.

I don't make declarative statements much, but of the dozens of boxes I've been a part of or dropped into, Crossfit Rittenhouse is flat out the best. I've either been a long term drop-in or 10-pack class holder with boxes in California, New York, New Jersey, Seoul and other Philly boxes, and nothing provides more consistent quality in programming, coaching, community and value. Let me get into it..

Programming: Obscenely deliberate and detailed and sometimes spinning off into the unconventional. Programming will never be stale because Head Coach Greg is always experimenting with different ways to achieve fitness. If you know a thing or two about the fitness community, it's apparent that most people (even professionals!) get their facts mixed up with bro science. Greg has been studying exercise science for over 10 years, constantly experiments with exercise methodologies and tweaks his programming based off of the results he sees with athletes. This box isn't a METCON factory, it won't do the franchise-y, cool thing because it's what pleases the athlete--it stays true to the science of fitness and what is ultimately best for you.

Coaching: Safety is paramount and coaching is personalized. This box won't pressure you into doing anything you're uncomfortable with and WODs won't start until everyone knows exactly where they're going and what they're doing. This is something I took for granted until I joined other boxes and saw how sloppy classes can get. Classes have zero ambiguity as far as what's going on and you can focus on getting the best workout you can. Furthermore, coaches will actually coach. I've seen some simply pace around and "proctor" classes. CFRH will actually give you tailored coaching based on your strengths and weaknesses to make you a better athlete.

Community: I'm not sure how this came together, but everyone at CFRH is exceptionally nice, humble, smart and hard working. I wasn't a fan of crossfit before because I saw athletes do things like wear aviators while squatting or say inappropriate things. This box has some quality people and seems to keep attracting people like that. If you want to work out with a crowd who works hard and genuinely loves watching you succeed, this is the place for it.

Value: There are definitely places out there that are on par with what CFRH provides (Crossfit Solace in NYC, Bear Flag in Fullerton, CA; and Brick in NYC), but that quality of fitness usually came at an obscene price, or getting into a class requires a reservation 2-3 days out.

If you're deciding on a box, take it from someone whose done all the legwork already...it won't stay this easy to sign up for classes!

I spend a lot of time in Philly and have had a chance to see many of the gyms in that area dropping in from out of town. While I enjoy many of them, these guys do a great job. Good instruction, good workout, and good people.

Keep it up guys. Well done.

I have never enjoyed any kind of training as much as I currently do at Crossfit Rittenhouse. Every daily WOD is meticulously designed to achieve short/medium term goals that were previously set for each individual.
If you really want to improve your lifting and gymnastics technique as well as your strength and stamina in relatively short period of time, CFRH is definitely the way to go!
