Seabright CrossFit is one of the best boxes you're going to find out here in the greater Bay Area. Since it's located in the home of CrossFit, you can be assured that the quality of their coaches and workouts are top notch. I dropped in for a class after years of thinking about it (and having so many friends do CrossFit) and I haven't looked back. The classes offered are intentional, challenging, and addicting. Every class begins with a warm up, followed by a strength portion before diving into the workout of the day (WOD). The coaches walk through every single movement and offer scaling modifications to fit all levels and body types (seriously). They are a mix of HIIT, strength, and gymnastics, and all are designed to challenge your body in different ways. Thanks to this community, I've tried out new movements that I've never attempted (or at least hadn't in 2+ decades). I was active prior to CrossFit doing mostly cardio and some strength training at my gym, but nothing beats the rush of group fitness in a wonderful community. The Seabright CrossFitters are amazing and I've met some of the best people since living here in Santa Cruz. Sure, I can't do everything asked (still working on a proper pull-up, hanging upside down, and climbing a rope), but I try my best, and can tell you that I've never felt stronger and see myself being able to accomplish this if I stay focused and work (and REST!) hard. Prices may seem steep at first (with monthly memberships starting around $130) but you really can't put a price on your health, trust me. Try them out and see what you think, and maybe I'll see you in class one day! S/o to my 6am crew and coaches Katie, Pete, and Lorianne for being my champions through my CrossFit journey thus far!

After the class, Coach Alex took a lot of time to explain different CrossFit principles and practices to me. Throughout the workout, he was super kind while pushing me to do my best. I'll definitely be back.

I am so glad to have this box!! Kelvin is one of the nicest, most knowledgeable, and fun Coaches I…read morecan imagine. I have been working out with Kelvin for a year now and I'm hooked. I have always considered myself athletic having played 8 different organized sports throughout high school and my childhood but had always got my exercise and stayed fit through sports. Now at age 28 without regular sports practices, I have really been wanting some sort of way (beyond yoga which is not enough) to really strengthen and get/stay fit. But I have never liked going to gyms and it is so much harder to motivate on your own. Aside from when my high school PE class did a weight/gym class rotation for a few weeks junior year I hadn't spent hardly any time at a gym or box before so it was very new for me. I didn't know what a kettle bell was! Group CrossFit classes were the perfect solution and Kelvin was the perfect Coach to introduce me to this type of training that was completely new to me. The intro courses really set the stage so that you understand the roots and philosophy of CrossFit and the importance of learning the basic movements and lifts properly BEFORE adding weight to be sure you are doing the movement safely and correctly with maximum efficiency. The workouts are different every time so it never gets old/routine/boring and with a group there to encourage you, you work harder and WANT to go. So much better then working out alone. Kelvin always introduces the movements of the day by reminding us of all the key points of performance for that movement to be sure we are ready to perform it safely and efficiently, protecting our muscles and joints and getting the most benefit out of the movement. Even if it is just a push-up which we have all done thousands of Kelvin will remind us the importance of doing it right and review the key points of doing a proper push up. That's a responsible Coach! Surfing is my main sport these days and I definitely notice more power in my surfing. But the coolest part is how many more waves I can catch! I have so much more endurance now. After catching a long wave to the inside, I can turn right around and paddle straight back out through several waves holding my breathe etc. and I get much less winded then I used to. That gets me back out to catch another wave sooner, not needing rest time. So rad! Music can be a huge part of getting you through a tough workout and to top it off, Kelvin is practically a music Encyclopedia. He is always switching the genre and plays great music at every class... crucial.

After reading all those one and two star reviews. and knowing nothing has been done about these, this place obviously does not care at all. They just pretend to care by saying to reach out to them but obviously they've heard this feedback many, many, times over without making changes. what is so hard about hiring maintenance people to clean the bathroom?
