I dropped in for the Saturday team workout, and I was welcomed with friendly gym members, a knowledgeable coach, and great owners. I will definitely stop by this gym in the future if I am in the area.
I just moved to the area and this box is exactly what I was looking for. Amazing gym and community!!! The owners Mandi and Ryan are always welcoming and are very very nice. The coaches are very knowledgeable, and will help you improve in every way possible. I like the programming it is very systematic and well thought of!
If you are in the area and looking for a gym, check this place out!
Great drop-in spot if you are in Richmond. Friendly coaches and members. Solid programming and good pacing to the classes every time I have been.
Will be back soon :)
I love this place! They are very welcoming, caring, and well educated in the ways of proper form for lifting as well as substitutions for all complex moves that you are trying to work up to. I would recommend this place to everyone and anyone!
Best gym I've ever been to. The owner is extremely knowledgeable, and patient when teaching someone new to the fitness routines. Every member has been welcoming and willing to help anyone who needs it. Encouraging each other during workouts isn't the exception, but the rule. Join this gym.

Me and my friend bought a week pass and attended classes while in town. I was already impressed after quick email responses but was even more impressed when we attended classes. From the moment we walked into the door we were greeted by the owner, along with at least 3 different members. After a great class I was suprised to see a personal follow up email again welcoming us to the gym and actually an apology since one of the owner's couldn't chat with us after class. Every class we attended was just as welcoming. Ryan's programming and coaching are excellent, and he (unknowingly) taught me a few coaching tricks to take back with me to my gym. This isnt one of those gyms that just focuses on one type of athlete either; I saw him cater to all levels from a beginner to competitor and still was able to leave everyone feeling inclusive to the community. Definitely going to drop in again when I'm back in town

If you want a great workout with a great bunch of people sweating as much as you are then Shockoe Bottom Crossfit is a place you should visit.

I was dropping in from out of town as a hurricane refuge. The people I worked with were very welcoming. They seem to have solid programming and a nice facility.
After checking in the night before, I dropped in last friday for a 5:40 AM WOD. Greg, not Drake, the co-owner was helpful and informative. When on the road in Richmond, I'll drop in here again. Great Crossfit experience. Be cheered on! (Alex, thanks for putting up with me.)
Shockoe Bottom Crossfit is a great atmosphere for beginners, immediate, and advance levels of CrossFit. Whatever your personal goals are, this gym can accomplish them. I have been a member for three months and I have really enjoyed my time working out and learning about CrossFit. The people are great and motivate each other to push each other to your limit. If you do not try then you will never know.
The coaches are knowledgeable and will ensure you know the proper form. They are very approachable and want you to ask questions.
If you aspire to achieve a healthier lifestyle and increase your personal fitness then Shockoe Bottom Crossfit is the gym for you.
SBCF is a great environment to challenge yourself and reach your goals, whatever they may be. There is an amazingly supportive environment and the coaches are extremely encouraging. The workouts are very fun and I look forward to sweat and improve every day with people I can now call friends. Give it a try and you won't regret it!
Came to SBCF out of sheer curiosity. At this point, I had been running every other day and doing free weights at my gym for two years. The monotony (and the mirrors) was starting to get to me.
At my first class, I finished my burpees pouring sweat, breathing hard, and thinking "what the hell just happened to me?" I also finished it to the cheers of my classmates + coaches. People who I didn't know we're shouting my name and encouraging me. Despite thinking I was in shape from all the running and free weights, I was the last one to finish. However, with all the support I received I felt invigorated and challenged. I started to come to classes regularly, first doing scaled workouts then slowly progressing.
Surprisingly, where I noticed the most gains in my daily life was my spring dodgeball league. Before, I would throw balls and they were lucky to make it half away across the court (not to mention hit another person). After CF, my aim and speed are much better and the balls are actually going where they're supposed to go (take that invisible air resistance!)
It hasn't always been easy (the workouts are always challenging), but it has always been fun. The SBCF box has a great group of members and coaches who are friendly and encouraging no matter what your fitness level. I could not recommend it enough!
