Fantastic experience: This is the best gym I’ve been to in a really long time. The coaches are super patient with everyone and their varying levels of comfort with working out. On top of it all, Verzanno CrossFit fosters a great community where we all have so much fun working out today! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Una experiencia única. Nada igual a lo usual, sentí el cambio desde el primer día ✅ e estado en otros gimnasios y nunca vi cambios como a qui Gracias a todos los instructores que dedican tiempo a cada uno de nosotros , se toman el tiempo para explicarnos clara mente cada uno de los ejercicios y lo más importante siempre se preocupan por nuestra seguridad y se enfocan en el cambio que queremos en nuestro cuerpo GRACIAS POR EXISTIR VERRAZANO FITNESS

Thanks VZ CrossFit for helping me and my fellow athletes achieve our goals!!

Fantastic experience: Verrazano Fitness is a second family that you choose to be apart of. Everyone is encouraging and the coaches are Amazing!

Fantastic experience: Verrazanno Fitness is more than a gym. It is a community of individuals from many professions who come together to achieve individualistic health goals by performing daily exercises that encompass cardio, strength training, weight lifting, yoga, explosive, and calisthenics workout. My experiences at Verrazanno have been transformative. Besides finding a family, I have learned many skills that have driven me to learn more about the human muscular system. Not only did I know so many things about my body, but I lost 13 pounds and became lean. Juan, Ti'quan, Alex, and Israel played a big role in my transformation. Juan assisted me with a wonderful six-week meal plan and is always so attentive. Ti'quan pushed me to do challenging exercises that I would have never thought or expected to do and spoke to me about injury prevention at all times. He never saw me as a weakness but as a person who can thrive higher and higher and I am so grateful to him for it. Alex's morning prewarm-up session was my favorite. Before the warm-up, he taught us how to perform flexible movements that would later transpire throughout the rest of the program. And Israel, as the expert that he is, always looked for ways to accommodate the assignments to meet my physical needs. He definitely has an eye for details. All in all, I strongly recommend Verrazanno Fitness. Verrazanno has shown me that I can be healthy, strong, and, at the same time, look great.

Fantastic experience: I joined the gym one year ago, needing a change. Verrazano Fitness is like a family, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and everyone is rooting for you to succeed. All fitness levels are welcome and receive an incredible amount of support. If you’re looking to make a change for the better for your health and fitness, look no further.

Fantastic experience: Amazing team and amazing staff!!!!!!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! Small group workout. The trainers are amazing!

Fantastic experience: Contenta con el drop in que me ofreció Verrazano! La verdad encantada!!. Si no fuera porque vine de vacaciones y ya debo volver a mi ciudad, entrenaría allí sin dudarlo. Muy buena energía y atención de los coaches, en especial la atención de Juan, que me asesoró con todas las dudas que tenía. Los recomiendo

Fantastic experience: I would usually shy away from weights, barbells and workouts Iike these but i figured i have nothing to lose so i gave the gym a try. So glad i did! From the moment I came in, the coaches and fellow members have been patient, funny and supportive. The classes are a good size and the coaches take their time with you. Feeling pretty strong and proud of myself! Thanks VZ!

Fantastic experience: I signed up for a package of 10 classes with my nephew(9yrs). I love that the classes are not packed. The instructors show you how to properly do the exercises.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful welcoming community that supports your fitness goals no matter what level you may be. Flexible programs. Excellent coaches.

Fantastic experience: I’m new to CrossFit and I’m already loving it. Every class is a new challenge but still kind of fun. I’m making a lot of progress thanks to the coach who’s always watching me.

Fantastic experience: Just started and already felt the burn...what a good burn...great and caring coaches, clean gym, friendly gym partners...very good community... Though this is a crossfit class, it actually feels like one on one personal training session with a cheerleading squad behind you encouraging you to do that one final rep. Greatly recommended.

Fantastic experience: The coaches really care. Great gym!

Fantastic experience: Loved the place! I do crossfit 3 years now and I have never seen a place so clean before. Also the coaching was amazing and the music gave me lot of motivation hahaha

Fantastic experience: La mejor opción para entrenar en staten island. Lindo gimnasio, excelente la atención personalizada en mi clase individual por parte de Juan. Los coach son unos genios, muy amables.

Fantastic experience: I joined a year ago and I have no regrets, the experience has changed my life. The coaches are great! They train you , support you at the same time. The people so nice . It’s like a family! My body feels great and my energy is so much better!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to the gym for over a year now. I love the atmosphere. I like how knowledgeable the coaches are. They are really approachable. The workouts are challenging and keeps me from being bored.

Fantastic experience: Joining Verrazano fitness has been a great decision. The coaches are excellent and I really enjoy going to the classes. It is a great atmosphere. I have tried other gyms but Verrazano fitness is the best.

Fantastic experience: Verrazano Fitness was recommended to me from a friend and I’m so glad I listened. Absolutely life changing! I’ve gained so much confidence in lifting weights and overall in my athletic abilities. Supportive, high level coaches, and friendly positive environment. If you’re interested in CrossFit, definitely get registered!

Fantastic experience: If you would ever want to discover what you are truly made of without any pressure and judgements, Verrazano Fitness is the best place for that. The moment I walked through the door, I was welcomed by the members who instantly become my friends. Amazing coaches Iz and Ti'Quan are knowledgeable, patient and guided me step by step, move by move to make sure that my technique was perfect and I wouldn't hurt myself. They helped me to discover that I could handle few more pounds, do few more push ups, few more pull-ups that I ever thought I was capable of. This is my "meditation garden" and I can't wait for my work day to end so I could go there and push myself to the new limits. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: One thing I can say is I walked in looking to get back into shape. Instead I walked into a place that motivates you to push yourself more and people that not only gym buddies but I know will be life long friends.

Fantastic experience: Amazon gym, environment is great and friendly staff is always helpful and friendly most amazing place to train ‍♀️

Fantastic experience: My experience with Verrazano fitness has been great , the coaches and members are all very supportive and friendly . Not only do they provide a fun and engaging experience but they provide you with all the tools needed to succeed . In 2 months I have noticed a major difference in my overall weight and strength. If you ever wanted to try CrossFit , I highly recommend giving Verrazano crossfit a chance you won’t be disappointed!

Fantastic experience: Great workouts, great instructors, great people! I am getting stronger and feel the changes in my body. All my hard work is really working. They make the workouts fun yet challenging and it’s never the same boring class. The hour goes by so quick and I leave sweating! It’s awesome!

Fantastic experience: Verrazano fitness is an incredibly friendly gym! Everyone is so welcoming and you are always greeted when entering and leaving the box. The vibe is super supportive and there is everyone of all fitness levels, which is both comforting and inspiring. I love it here so far!

Fantastic experience: Honestly some of the most genuine people you could ever meet. The staff never makes you feel like someone else is better then you. Everyone is equal no matter the experience. Staff is knowledgeable. Juan shows alot of love to his clients and pushes you toward your goals. 5 out 5 stars

Fantastic experience: Verrazano Fitness is a fantastic gym! I have never felt so comfortable in a gym class before. The coaches are awesome and there is a real sense of community and support from everyone. I can’t recommend it enough!

Fantastic experience: So today was my 1st Day and it was Amazing everyone including the trainer was so friendly helpful and encouraging I love it here

Negative experience: Havent really tried it out due to them charging $250 for 3 weeks of training. Too rich for my blood. I will hit a regular gym That charges $300 for the YEAR.. just my experience.

Fantastic experience: If I wasn’t disabled this would be my gym of choice, the trainer (Iz) the music, atmosphere & other gym members were great. I was offered a trial session by Juan and I can truly say these guys will get you in shape.

Fantastic experience: CrossFit here is amazing I have been there multiple times and I gotta say wow. From the environment being peaceful and non hostile to things being productive. The coaches helped me when I was struggling and motivated me to move foward. It’s again an amazing experience and I urge anyone to go there. 10/10 Nicholas Hernandez of CrossFit

Fantastic experience: Verrazano CrossFit has changed my LIFE. I originally joined because I couldn't even carry a case of water. As a healthy and capable human being, I felt like I should be able to. I saw the ad on Facebook and decided to give it a whirl. I'm so glad I did! Literally every single human being at Verrazano is absolutely fantastic- from the trainers, to the recruiters, to other members- everyone has been super fantastic, supportive, informative, motivating, personable, and just generally all around awesome. The workouts are achievable regardless of level as the trainers work with everyone on form and modifications consistently. It's been 5 months and I can now carry two cases of water with ease and so much more. It's amazing to see what your body can do when you train with amazing trainers! If you're looking to get into shape and have a great time in an amazingly friendly and supportive environment, Verrazano CrossFit is where it's at!

Fantastic experience: I am 57 years old and, well let's just say I was unsure of my abilities to take on CrossFit training. After my first meeting with Juan, he convinced me to 'move through the fear' and gift myself with a healthy life. I continue to surprise myself with what I'm able to accomplish, I literally feel stronger after each class. The team at Verrazano CrossFit, (Juan, Izzy, Martin, C.J., etc.) are all inspiring mentors and examples of what you can 'achieve when you believe.' I've said it many times, if I can do this, then anyone can. Give your selves the chance, move through the fear and you will be amazed at what you can create with the help of the VZ CrossFit family. Much love and many cheers!

Fantastic experience: I just completed my first week and so glad I joined! I am a newbie to CrossFit, so I was feeling a bit nervous before my first class, but the coaches and staff are extremely professional, caring, and attentive, which allowed me to ease my way in with confidence and comfortability. I truly enjoy how the program is structured for a variety of levels -- from beginner to expert -- while still challenging you to meet your goals. And did I mention the community support? The community and culture is so supportive and uplifting, it's like exercising with your family. I definitely recommend Verrazano Fitness to those looking to meet their fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: This team is amazing, Juan will help guide you, sign you up and explain every aspect of starting out in your fitness journey. The instructors are super dedicated, Motivated and they always find a way to push you to next level and make you feel great about it. This team is amazing and I can't say enough good things about them. If you want to "Level up your life" try Verrazano Crossfit, they will definitely help you define who you truly are.

Fantastic experience: Awesome workout

Fantastic experience: I joined Verrazano Crossfit for an 8-week challenge with the intention of proving to myself that at 40+ I could complete the challenge and achieve my weight loss goal. Little did I know that this program, these coaches, and these teammate would literally become and mean so much more to me than just achieving a goal. About 5 weeks into the challenge and 18 pounds down, my beloved father fell deathly ill and I could no longer attend classes consistently. I reached out to Juan for options but what I received was an empathetic ear, a compassionate heart, soothing, and motivating words. We were able to create a plan that would not only allow me to care for my dad through his last days of life but also allowed me to meet and eventually exceed my original goal. I'm a true believer that people and things come into your life for a reason and joining Verrazano Crossfit is no exception. The support, motivation, and overall energy in classes are like no other program I have ever been a part of. Classes are small and you can always count on the coaches to be there to help and, motivate you. I've been attending for three months and can't say that I've ever done the same workout twice. I must say, the consensus within all classes is that WE ALL hate burpees and there's a special place in hell for the person who came up with the exercise :-) I'll be forever thankful and grateful for the amazing coaches that have contributed to my success and helping me become a healthier me.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member for almost a year now and it’s the most I’ve been consistent with any gym in my adult life The coaches have been great as well as the classes, which consist of small groups. I never imagined being a CrossFit member especially because I didn’t know what it was and I figured it was mostly advanced weight lifters and strength trainers. However, I was completely wrong and I was happy to see that there are people who are at ALL levels. Everyone is supportive in the classes and they take the time to teach step by step on how to strength train as well as any other workouts which is great for people who have never touched a barbell or weights. 100 percent recommend this gym to people who have tried big scale gyms and don’t see results on their own. Best decision I have made is joining so try it out because it just might be yours as well. ☺️

Fantastic experience: Monday marks week 4 of CrossFit for me and it has been a new found love. This pushes me to limits I never though possible mentally and physically. The coaches have been nothing but supportive of us all. I love the small class settings especially during these times. I super recommend this gym I have at least 3 people who signed up after me and my best friend has been coming since March 2020. ‼️

Fantastic experience: My new gym! Coaches are very welcoming and they look out for your well being and push you to be your best. There is not much more to say. This Gym has very friendly coaches and it is never a dull moment with each class. I enjoy coming to class because I know I will have a great time. I am being too repetitive at the moment. Give this place a shot! It sure is worth your $$$!

Fantastic experience: Everyone is like a family

Fantastic experience: Love love love this place! Just moved to New York from South Carolina and this is my new home for the new year. Small classes, coaches give you lots of attention. They also have awesome new bikes. Great community, super excited to be apart of it for my fitness journey. :)))))))

Fantastic experience: Thanks to this community I've been the most consistent I've ever been with my fitness, now I'm coaching here, forever grateful for this place! Now's my chance to give back

Fantastic experience: Great box even greater people I came to lost a few pounds and ended up joining a family.

Fantastic experience: The best trainers I had (Aaron), very attentive, understanding and kind. He takes you step by step. I could’ve never complain, don’t give up because I haven’t.❤️

Fantastic experience: I'm so glad I walked into this crossfit location. Not only are Shaun and Mary passionate instructors, but I have yet to meet a single member that I don't connect with. I'm entering my second month of crossfit and could not be happier with my experience. I'm trying to get some of my friends to join, and, like many people I assume, they are a bit intimidated by crossfit. All I can say is, don't be. All levels of fitness attend this gym, and the great thing about this workout is, it keeps you coming back. If you're fed up with waiting for machines, or dealing with the crowds of your local gym, come to this location and give crossfit a chance. It's a friendly, supportive atmosphere and your workouts are one hour, start to finish. I can not recommend this place enough.

Fantastic experience: This place is hidden on Bay Street, but once you walk through the door everything changes. I have been there a month and now I am hooked!!!! When you walk in the door there is super cool bright hip artwork. I have never seen that anywhere at a Crossfit Gym lol. The coaches and members are always helpful and welcoming during the classes. I always receive one-on-one time with the coach and they seem like they really care about your progress :). The make-up of my body has truly changed in the past 4 weeks by doing Crossfit. I am starting to see some abs. I think its because I have been using my body weight in a lot of the movements which are very intense. I also enjoy the free yoga and open gym on Sundays. One thing… I would like to see more classes during the day. But they have plenty and night and in the evening. There you have it! So far so good! Can’t wait to go back tomorrow :)))

Fantastic experience: Can’t say enough good things about this gym the trainers and customers both are extremely friendly and welcoming. I’ve seen incredible results in just a couple months and just wish I had started going there sooner!

Fantastic experience: 4 months of hard work and dedication. Thank you to all the coaches for your patience and knowledge in helping me to get the transformation I always wanted. Thank you to all the amazing CrossFit friends for your constant motivation and friendliness. I am obsessed with my look. 22 pounds, 9% body fat loss and counting. My favorite gym!!! Looking forward to many more years of mind and body transformation. Let’s do this Verrazano CrossFit family.

Fantastic experience: My fitness journey with VZ Crossfit has catapulted me to a new level of body transformation results. Thanks to a great team of knowledgeable and supportive trainers who push me to work hard and have fun while my goals are met. Your time is valuable. Get in here and get it done!

Fantastic experience: I did the 6 week challenge and really enjoyed it! The coaches are super helpful and nice! After the challenge I did notice a good change in my body! The workouts are great way to stay healthy and be in shape! The other members are always postive and supportive when working out!

Fantastic experience: This place is a game changer for anyone wanting legit RESULTS! Going on week 4 I’m down 5% bodyfat and 15lbs!! The staff is second to none!!! Thank you Verrazano!!!

Fantastic experience: This is one of my official playgrounds when it comes to strength and endurance training for Spartan Races

Fantastic experience: I have tried everything, Aaron and coaches really helped me and guided me. I lose almost 30 lbs and feel great thanks to them. You guys are awesome and thank you for always pushing me!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely great gym! Lost over 25 pounds over a span of 6 weeks! Would recommend to anyone!

Positive experience: Good workout!

Fantastic experience: Great working with the people here. Nice, supportive folks. Very understanding also.

Fantastic experience: Never having done cross fit before, I was a little intimidated to try Verrazano crossfit, that is, until I went inside. The staff was super friendly, with a really inviting environment. There is a real sense of community here. If you are just looking to try out something new, or some kind of a cross fit rockstar, this place is an easy fit. I will be coming back for sure.

Fantastic experience: Excellent programs coaches equipment location

Fantastic experience: Wasn't sure about doing Cross Fit, never tried it before, but a friend recommended Verrazano Crossfit and it's been awesome! Great workouts and everyone is so supportive, even if you're a beginner. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Good coach, good owner and best place for get healthy and fit

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! Supportive, encouraging and knowledgable coaching staff and the weight loss challenges are amazing (hard, but great results!)

Fantastic experience: This gym has really got something special. The atmosphere, the people, the passion, the wisdom and especially the genuine care a person has for one another is astonishing. It’s truly a community. If you haven’t visited, you’re missing out...

Fantastic experience: Great gym! Awesome instructors and programs!

Fantastic experience: Started at Verrazano CrossFit about seven weeks ago in October 2018 to do the six week challenge. My goal was to lose 15 lbs in six weeks- but with the wonderful coaches and equally wonderful community of CrossFitters, I was able to lose 20lbs in six weeks. As a woman with PCOS- this is absolute accomplishment that I couldn’t have done without them. I’ve since signed on for another six months and will sign on for many more as long as I Iive on Staten Island. Come join us!

Fantastic experience: I signed up for the 6 week challenge thinking that it was going to be hard and the coaches would be super intense but when I took my first class my mind was blown ! The coaches an the environment was so awesome, the energy was so amazing and everyone including the coaches and the members were so supportive and helpful. I loved the gym so much that after the 6 week program and I signed up for a membership.. I would 11/10 recommend this place to anyone and everyone who is just starting out with their fitness journey or someone who is already fit and wants to try something new :) most welcoming and encouraging CrossFit gym on the island

Fantastic experience: Great comfortable nonjudgmental atmosphere. Very helpful and supportive group. Fun intense workouts which give awesome life changing results!!!‍♀️

Fantastic experience: Verrazano crossfit has been such a positive addition to my weight loss and health journey. I look forward to going to classes as the people are all supportive and positive. I have fun during my classes and look forward to working out each week. I just completed the 6 week challenge and as a person who has been active my entire life this challenge really changed my rating and working out habits like no other.

Negative experience: Limited classes, expensive and think they know it all

Fantastic experience: Great box, focused on good technique & movement. The WODs are varied, fun, and structured all throughout the week. Aaron and Laura are awesome people too. They connect well with everyone and are open to feedback. Classes start on time and for those with a car, parking is available.

Fantastic experience: Perhaps not the most state-of-the-art equipment, but a strong and close CrossFit community that more than makes up for that!
