A year ago I was talked into signing up for a short term membership at Breathe Crossfit by my sister. I was so nervous I sat in the parking lot 30 minutes early to prepare myself :) I am not going to lie, the first time I was so out of shape that I had to sit down after my warm up (oops). However, Marisa (the coach of my first class and one of the gym owners) didnt make me feel like I was out of place because of this. She told me to take my time and listen in to the instruction so I didnt miss anything. From then on, I was determined to redeem myself. I used up my short term membership and immediately signed up for a long term membership. I was encouraged to participate in the Crossfit Open, even though I had only been at BCF for 3 weeks. I was told that it would be a great way to track my progress and it certainly has been. I am able to look back and see how much progress Ive made. It was during the Open that Sharon, Marisa, JD and the other coaches pushed me through the competitive workouts, even though at that point I continually struggled each week and wanted to quit. The feeling of accomplishment after completing the Open was amazing. I then went to watch the Regional competitions in Massachusetts and was completely inspired. At that point, I signed up for Sharons Nutrition class and joined the competitive Performance team at BCF. Sharon helped me to recognize the many weaknesses in my diet and get on track to fuel my workouts and reach my nutritional goals! Since then, I have lost over 30 lbs and more than 10% body fat, and I am not alone. So many members are in the same boat and we continually motivate each other! JD, Marisa, Sharon and the rest of the coaches are the complete opposite of the coaches you hear about in the media today. They focus on breaking down each Crossfit movement so that you are able to safely use the movements in the daily workouts. They will push you further than you could ever imagine but arent afraid to tell you if your eyes are bigger than your muscles ;) Since joining BCF I have never felt so at home. BCF is a second family to me. If you had told me this would be the case while sitting in the parking lot before my first session, I would have told you that you were crazy. However, the constant encouragement, welcoming atmosphere and fun workouts at BCF are what keep members and myself coming back everyday. All in all, I would recommend Breathe Crossfit to anyone that wants the feeling of accomplishment, motivation and a Crossfit family :)

For the experienced and inexperienced fitness enthusiast, Breathe is a place where community and coaching comes first. You dont have to be "jacked and tan" to work out here you can go at your own pace all while receiving expert coaching and advice on form, technique and pacing. The coaches will push you to get the most out of your workout all while watching and ensuring proper form is being used. For those that are more experienced the programming is setup to push you as well. This is the perfect blend and balance. Since we moved from the Bay Area in California I was very lucky to find this gym. Having worked out in SFCF and other CrossFit gyms throughout NorCal I was stoked to find a community where everyone welcomed me in the gym. I cant say enough about how awesome this gym is. Working out at 5:30am is sometimes tough but I look forward to every class!

Breathe Crossfit is a fantastic place. It has shown me that I can change my body and that I am much stronger than I ever thought I was. The trainers are great, knowledgeable and really care about me and my progress. The members are kind, supportive and the friendly competitive atmosphere really pushes you to work hard. The work outs are demanding, and will push you to your limits but the results speak for themselves. I started during their 8 week Nutrition Challenge and in that time I lost 7 inches in my waist and went down 5 pants sizes. With the guidance of the trainers, the encouragement of my fellow gym members and tons of my own hard work, I can’t wait to see what other changes my body makes. I love it there, and you will too!

I started going to Breathe Crossfit in January 2013 thinking it would be a great way to get into shape. I now go to Breathe Crossfit because I cant imagine not going. I work out with people at all fitness levels who keep me motivated and push me to do more than I thought I could. The coaches took the time to understand my individual goals and care about helping me achieve them. After going faithfully for so many months, I can do things that I never would have imagined I could do and I have a group of friends for life. I cant imagine working out anywhere else.

I started here after my wife joined and raved about how much she loved the place and the people she had met. I did a few drop in classes and had a blast. I am now a full time member at the gym and I love it. The coaches, the people in class, and the atmosphere are awesome. Workouts are tough but they are designed to be. Classmates and coaches are always helpful and will push you to be better everyday no matter your skill level. Come and see for yourself why people love it so much!

Breathe Crossfit is addicting. The workouts are challenging and different every time I go in. You wont find these types of workouts at any other gym. The coachs are knowledgeable and push you to challenge yourself, but know your individual limits. The members have established a fun, supportive and motivating culture which makes you feel comfortable no matter what fitness level your at and you feel part of a community and family.

Breathe Crossfit is changing my life, one rep at a time. The coaches are amazing and sincerely care about my well being and the members are all very super encouraging towards each other. I have never experienced a better support system anywhere. I have gained so much confidence in myself and confidence is the sexiest thing a woman can wear. Thank you "Breathe" PS, I love Burpees ;)
