Vintage is a new addition to the Houston CrossFit scene so if you're reading this review, chances are you are wondering why you should choose Vintage over other CrossFit gyms in Houston. Whether you are a newbie or veteran CrossFitter, Vintage is dedicated to offering you, the athlete, a different and better approach to Crossfitting in Houston. A business is only as good as the people running it. At Vintage, the owners/coaches are experienced and passionate about CrossFit, and they want to see their members grow and succeed. They lead by example and emphasize proper form and technique at all times. They will scale the workouts to your level, but they will never allow you to be lazy. They will keep you motivated and will always ensure that the workouts are designed to help you improve as an athlete. Unlike most Crossfit gyms in Houston, Vintage offers longer 1 hour class times vs. the traditional 45 minutes. While an extra 15 minutes may not seem like much, it provides you with ample time to warm-up, cool-down and/or spend a little extra time working on a certain skill. You can also focus on proper technique during your WODs. You won't feel as rushed to squeeze everything into a 45 minute window. The actual WOD may be less than 10 minutes on certain days, but the extra time allotted to classes will help you improve as an athlete by allowing you to focus on more than just finishing your workout. Classes are also capped at 15 people to allow coaches to provide you with more individual attention while also ensuring you have plenty of space to work out safely and efficiently. Vintage also offers its members specialty programs including Women's Only classes and Crossfit Endurance as well as Open Gym on Saturdays. These programs/classes provide you with a supportive environment that will help you grow as an athlete. Vintage is also dedicated to the community aspect of Crossfit. There is nothing quite like being surrounded by friends who care about you and your progress. If you are new to Crossfit or a veteran looking for something different, Vintage will offer you the tools to become a better athlete and help you reach your goals, whatever they may be. read more

Vintage has been open since the beginning of February 2013, when some experienced coaches from another box decided to strike out on their own. The "Box" features a large central rig with plenty of places for squats and pullups. Some of the nicer features: The classes are a full hour. This format is longer than the common 45 minute class, providing additional time for mobility and strength work. I find this really nice as it prevents a rushed "assembly line" like feeling to time in the box. The facility is large enough to not feel crowded or worry about dropping a thruster on someone else. This was a big one for me because for some reason mine always bounce EVERYWHERE. The coaches are very supportive of athletes pursuing their own fitness goals, including putting in a little extra time in the squat rack after workouts. Finally, there is a community feeling at Vintage which was one of the primary reason I decided to start Crossfit instead of go to a Globo-Gym. Monthly happy hours, competitions, and other events really keep the spirit positive and friendly. One area that still requires improvement is their non-workout facilities. The office, changing room, and bathroom are all currently being renovated. I don't tend to spend a lot of time here anyway, but it will be nicer when they are done with the remodeling. Overall: A great place to workout with dedicated coaches and a solid community feeling, non-workout facilities are still under improvement. read more

If you are looking for a place to call your CrossFit home along the Washington Corridor or inner loop stop because Vintage is the place for you! I joined CrossFit almost 10 months ago and couldn't be happier with my results and awesome friends I've made along the way. As an endurance athlete I needed something to help maintain my strength and sanity during the long intense training sessions. When I stumbled upon these guys 10 months ago I knew they were the coaches for me to help me achieve my goals. Dennis well lets just say he puts a whole new meaning to the term endurance athlete. He is a beast and competes in races such as the Death Race for fun! All the coaches focus on technique and form, which is hard to come by at most boxes, so we don't injure ourselves. Oh and the motivation from the members is insane. You are always pushing yourself and being pushed to the next level. Rather you walk in completely out of shape or a seasoned athlete I promise you Vintage will make you the best athlete you can be!! Stop by to get your workout on and make some new friends. Vintage is bringing CrossFit back to its roots and dedicated to community...we love Happy hours and get togethers outside the box!! read more

I've been doing CrossFit for almost a year now and after the membership at my original box expired I decided to try out some different places in Houston. Without a doubt, Vintage CrossFit has been my favorite so far. Along with their ideal location just off Washington Ave, they have a great setup in the warehouse they purchased. There is plenty of room and equipment for everyone to spread out and not have to worry about bumping into others while you're focusing on the day's WOD. I'm a big fan of the coaches at Vintage as well. They're knowledge goes beyond the basic CF certs and you can tell they know what they're talking about. Their focus isn't just on getting you in, assigning your WOD, and getting you out. They take the time to make sure you are fully prepared and warmed up for the day, regardless of skill. That, combined with their promise to never have a class larger than 15 people ensures you're getting the focused, individual coaching you need. read more

I'm a newbie to CrossFit and have been a member of Vintage since opening. I have to say that I really do enjoy it! Initially, I was skeptical about the whole CrossFit idea as I am a petite female; however, I have absolutely grown to love it! The very skilled (and patient, haha) coaches of Vintage have been really great with introducing me to the basics of all the moves and really (more like, really, really) scaling down the workouts for my level, without making me feel stupid. LOL! All in all, Vintage kind of makes me feel like a kid again, at P.E. having a great time exercising with fun rolled into the package. PLUS, I am still in the 'beginner' category, but I have already started to get the awesome bikini-ready body! (Woohoo!) If you are even THINKING about trying CrossFit I would really recommend checking out Vintage, you won't regret it! (And... you just might see me doing pull-ups while standing on my 'cheater' box, good laugh!) :) read more

I had not worked out / exercised on a regular basis since graduating college, and its apparent. Moreover, I previously never had any exposure to crossfit workouts. The staff at Vintage Crossfit have been very encouraging and helpful in teaching me proper technique, whether its for something as simple as a pullup or for a more advanced weight lifting routine. There are many people in my class who look like they are veteran crossfitters, and they are just as beat as I am by the end of the class - proves that Vintage Crossfit works for the novice and the advanced athlete. If you are looking to advance your fitness routine to the next level, or if you have long neglected your body (like me) and looking for an exciting way to break out of your slump, I would highly suggest stopping by Vintage Crossfit to see how they can help you achieve your goals. read more

Crossfit is the most comprehensive, make sense, results driven method of training ever conceived. I have been doing Crossfit for almost two years and have never felt better. Thankfully, I had the good fortune of meeting the coaches at Vintage Crossfit and was completely blown away; their knowledge, enthusiasm, encouragement, programming and facility make for the total package. Roman is as knowledgeable as a coach comes and Dennis and Craig were inspirational as they joined in to help keep the classes intense and inspired. Another point of note, is that the group classes always seem to be the perfect size, allowing for the right blend of tutelage and competition. Whether you have dreams of competing in the sport of Crossfit or simply want to improve your overall fitness, Vintage Crossfit is a great place to start. read more

I got involved with Crossfit about a year and a half ago and absolutely love it. The owners and coaches of Vintage have been with me through my entire Crossfit journey. They really care and take the time to share their expertise. Each coach is an athlete and has something different and special to bring to the table. So whether you're training for an Iron Man, running a marathon or just looking to get generally fit one of them will relate and help you reach your goals. If you want to learn great technique, perfect your skill and have an enjoyable workout with AWESOME people Vintage is the place to be!! You'll be slamming heavy weights and flying above pull up bars before you know it!! I feel stronger and more confident with each week that passes. read more

Vintage Crossfit is the best! Everywhere you look these days a new crossfit box is opening up, but the coaches at Vintage are the best there are, because they truly love what they are doing and want nothing more than to see everyone who works out there improve. All of the coaches are awesome. There has never been a time when one of them hasn't gladly taken the time to explain or demonstrate a skill or movement that I have trouble with, even if they have to sacrifice their own workouts or schedule to do so. The gym is awesome with great equipment and a really friendly, positive atmosphere. Best of all, when that clock starts, and the workout begins, you are pushed to your limits and beyond. I love everything about working out at Vintage. read more

My first experience with Vintage was dropping in for a few workouts about a year ago while visiting Houston. Dennis, the owner and head coach was very welcoming and right off the bat I noticed the knowledge he had and how much he cared about his members (and drop ins like myself). After moving to Houston, I had no hesitation in making Vintage my home gym. The multitude of classes offered, the knowledge and experience of the coaching staff, and the fun community atmosphere all make Vintage a must stop for Crossfitters of all levels. Whether you are doing your first fundamentals class or working out in the Competition Class, Vintage accommodates athletes of all skill levels and ages and no place will make you feel more welcome! read more

I've been a member since 04/2013 and have enjoyed every workout. I started by only going twice a week and have now increased to unlimited since I love it so much. The instructors are very encouraging and are concerned with correct form. They have made me drop weight to protect myself from injury. They also push me to go faster when they know I can. The best thing about this gym is the members. Everyone cheers each other on and are very supportive. The members push me to be the best I can be. I will be a member here for a long time. read more

Started crossfit new about a month ago when this new gym opened right next to my house. I wasn't sure what to expect, but the coaches are so awesome and made me feel comfortable right away. Melissa is one of the coaches, and she's wonderful. I can't do all of the workouts yet, but she explains how to do them in other ways that are helpful and building up to eventually be able to do the full WOD. Super glad I signed up for crossfit at this gym. read more
