Carozza Fitness

Experiencia fantástica: Incredible space and great workout! Highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: This is one on the cleanest cf gyms I have ever been to. Very organized. Staff is very welcoming and helpful.

Experiencia fantástica: Stopped by Carozza for an open gym session during my vacation and loved it! The owner, Mike, was very kind and welcoming and the rest of the staff as well. I was able to complete my crossfit workout as they had all the material and space I needed. The place is huge and spotless. It seems they do all sorts of functional training; hyrox, classes, open gym and even personal training. If I ever come back to the area I’ll make sure to drop by!

Experiencia fantástica: I can’t say enough good things about Carozza Fitness. The coaches here genuinely care and push you to be your best every session. It’s not just a gym — it’s a community that motivates you to stay consistent and actually enjoy training. I’ve gotten stronger, feel more confident, and have learned so much about proper technique and recovery. The energy in the gym is always positive, and everyone supports each other. If you’re looking for a place in Stamford where you’ll actually see results and feel part of a team, this is the spot.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing facility! Great coaches and great programming. Carozza Fitness helped me prepare for the NYC HYROX which I ended up surpassing my goal time. As a fellow gym owner and someone who was big into CrossFit, this would be my go-to gym if I was in the area. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: As someone completely new to cross fit type exercise and strength training, Carozza Fitness has made me feel stronger and more confident! Mike Carozza is friendly, welcoming and a great trainer; teaching me how to scale down and work at my own level and ability. Highly recommend to anyone looking to get out of their comfort zone and try something different. Everyone is so friendly and there is a lovely community feel. Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been training with Mike for about 17 years. I’m grateful for his thoughtful approach. He’s been a very important factor in keeping me going in exercise and sports from skiing to sailing and many other endeavors. Excellent work Mike. Thank you! John

Experiencia fantástica: The new Carozza Fitness facility offers everything you need, plus high energy and grit. You can tell that Mike (the owner) has poured all of his passion and experience into the place. When you walk in, you can’t wait to get started with your workout. I love the programming - it elevates fitness to a sport and mixes full body strength with cardio conditioning. You get the camaraderie of the community, but also friendly competition to help push you further. Before Carozza, I had a gym membership and I took classes, but I was just maintaining and not really making notable progress with my fitness. When I joined Carozza, the coaches helped me extensively with modifications and proper form to ensure I made progress. And man, I was surprised at how much progress I made! My fitness has elevated to another level thanks to Carozza. It has really been rewarding. But there is always more to work towards here - plenty of skills to develop and movements to master. It keeps you going back!

Experiencia fantástica: As the owner of the yoga studio next door, I’ve had the pleasure of seeing what makes Carozza Fitness so special. The energy and camaraderie that come from their space are truly inspiring. It’s clear that Mike and his team have created something beyond a gym—it’s a place where people come together, work hard, and lift each other up. If you’re looking for a space that motivates you to grow and makes you feel like part of a family, Carozza Fitness is the perfect choice. I’m so lucky to have them as neighbors!

Experiencia fantástica: I joined 1 year ago , and not only has my fitness been elevated, but I have been welcomed to community that is like nothing I have been a part of. Mike and his trainers are top notch and make everyone feel welcome, no matter what level of fitness you may be.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve recently started working out at this gym, and it’s been an amazing experience. Michael, the owner, welcomed me on my first day with such genuine warmth that I immediately felt comfortable. All the instructors are super nice and truly invested in helping each person succeed, which makes a huge difference. One instructor, Christine, has been especially impactful for me. As a beginner who wasn’t able to jump, I was a bit nervous about keeping up. But Christine was incredibly patient and gave me lots of personal attention and advice. She adapted the workouts to fit my abilities, adjusting exercises so I could participate fully without feeling left out. Her encouragement has really boosted my confidence. The gym itself has everything you need, but it’s the people who make it special. It’s a fun and supportive environment where everyone cheers each other on. If you’re looking for a place that feels more like a community than just a gym, I highly recommend checking it out.

Experiencia fantástica: I first joined Carozza Fitness 3 years ago while at home in the summer time from college. I was keen to get back into shape after not really doing much physical activity while away. The first time walking in with my brother, we were greeted by smiles and warm welcomes. Mike was super elated to have us there and took the time to guide us through the warm-up/workout, giving us all the necessary modifications so that we would be able to complete the workout successfully. The workout did indeed kick my butt, but in the best way possible!! I was always super intimidated by the gym, yet at CF, they made it a lovely & welcoming environment where you can be yourself and have fun while working out! Ever since joining I have never looked back. This is my 3rd consecutive summer coming back and I'm so happy to be here. Mike always has a summer discount for college students that are looking to just join for those three months you are home. And I can say with the utmost confidence that I am in the best shape of my life!! SERIOUSLY! And I truly owe it all to Carozza Fitness. If you are thinking about joining, stop thinking and just do it. You will seriously not regret it. I love the CF community <3

Experiencia fantástica: CrossFit community is amazing, always a friendly smile in your workout is welcome. Thank you Carozza Family!

Experiencia fantástica: I've been going to Carozza Fitness for a month and have seen great progress. I have to thank the coaches because they constantly push me out of my comfort zone and help me try new things. I highly recommend it because they teach different ways to perform each exercise, making it accessible for everyone. So happy to be here!

Experiencia fantástica: Nice community and excellent facilities

Experiencia fantástica: Very nice place

Experiencia fantástica: My husband just asked me where I thought my favorite crossfit gym was, since I travel around the country and I have been to many. The first words out of my mouth were “Carozza!” When I walked into the gym and met Mike, I knew that this was going to be one of my favorite places in Stamford. The workouts are amazing, not only that, there are different classes for more of a “cardio kick.” I loved that each day is different and the variety of equipment that we use. Mike made me feel at home and everyone there is encouraging. Get ready for a great workout and to become friends with amazing people!

Experiencia fantástica: Carozza Fitness is an excellent gym that offers a challenging but sustainable exercise routine. It has all the essential qualities that a Crossfit gym should: the programming makes sense, the coaches attend to every athlete and the equipment is in great shape. But the convivial community is the gym's best feature. People are welcoming, friendly and supportive without being intrusive. You will not regret joining Carozza Fitness.

Experiencia fantástica: Well run crossfit community with tailored workouts for endurance and strengths. The coaches are knowledgeable, and always willing to help. The atmosphere fosters a healthy and supportive competition as athletes of different fitness level challenge themselves to get fitter and stronger. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a challenge and great results!!

Experiencia fantástica: What a place. As someone who has worked out for sometime, I need the push for my body to go to the next level. I’ve always wanted to be part of a CrossFit gym. And being at Carozza, I’ve found home. The aptitude of every instructor to run a class is superior. There is such focus on making each individual athlete better. In my first 60 days, I’ve leaned out, and toned up. And improved my biggest problem, form. The transformation has been amazing. There is never a ‘can’t do it day’. This gym is for everyone. They will work with you to make you better, and really show you how to properly workout. If you want results, Carozza brings them.

Experiencia fantástica: Not only A bang for your buck but amazing coaches and awesome community. Couldn’t ask for more amid these jarring times.

Experiencia fantástica: Really great Box, conveniently located off Exit 9 of the i95. Really friendly members, welcoming to all levels. Great trainers Mike, Danielle, Ryan and Kate. Highly recommend. I've been a member for over 7 years.

Experiencia fantástica: Carozza Fitness is great. They have professional coaches that help me get in better shape. The coaches explain the movements every class by showing how to do them and how not to do them. The workouts are varied, challenging, and fun. They have a convenient class schedule for mornings, evenings, and weekends, but they also make the gym available almost all day so I can workout by myself if I cannot make a class. Carozza is a great gym all around.

Experiencia fantástica: “….unparalleled highly interactive virtual training….” During COVID I made a commitment to improve my physical wellbeing, and exercising at my home with Mike’s virtually coaching, was one of the best self investments I made. Thanks to Mike’s well-established profession, exceptional interpersonal skills and ability to relate to others, he repeatedly brings forth unparalleled highly interactive virtual training. It is clear to me that Mike’s passion to help others is what strives Carozza Fitness success, and makes him second to none coach and the leader in the fitness industry. Living out of state, and haven’t met Mike in person, I am impress by his talent to motivate and inspire me during our virtual trainings, and can only imagine its magneto in-person. His powerful authentic demeaner make him a great role model and coach for young athletes, and I am grateful for having him coaching my 16 year-old son. No matter your age or the size of your fitness goals, you want to be train with the best, and Mike and his team overdelivers what is needed to reach your desire destination. Hats off Carozza Fitness team !

Experiencia fantástica: I walked into Carozza Fitness gym around a year ago. CrossFit was always something I wanted to try/learn but was never sure I'm capable and if I would fit in. Since the first class, I received loads of help, advices, encouragement and motivation not only from the couches but also community. Never once, I felt intimidated or discoursed by anyone at the gym, the vibe and sense of community made me in fact extremely motivated and kicked me to try harder and face my own fears. It quickly became my to go place and I must say singing up and committing for one year membership was one of the most rewarding decisions I have made. CF improved my fitness ability, physical shape, confidence and made me feel better In my own body than ever before. It also thought me discipline, determination and patience, that had huge impact in different parts of my everyday life, not only fitness. I couldn't say enough amazing things about the couches. Michael, Ryan, Danielle and Kate are extremely knowledgeable and devoted, their determination, attitude and willingness to help and push us to do better inspires me every day. Before I signed up to Carozza I was under impression CrossFit is only for certain people that like lifting weights, now I'm definitely convinced crossfit is for everyone regardless of age or fitness ability. The schedule is extensive, there is variety of classes offered at different times to accommodate everyone's needs. Singing up/reserving process is professional and easy. The gym is very well equipped located in huge warehouse where social distancing and personal space is never a problem, gym is always spotless clean. Definitely the place to be and workout!

Experiencia fantástica: It's simple: Mike and the other good folks at Carozza Fitness help you to be the best version of yourself. With their guidance, on your terms, at your pace. Mike et al provide you with a platform, both in the gym and through a myriad of other activities and programs, to become healthier, stronger and...happier. And you'll meet a bunch of interesting and fun people in the process. Keep up the great work, CF!

Experiencia fantástica: I will be completely honest. I bought a Carozza Fitness Groupon out of sheer curiosity. Let’s face it. People that do crossfit, love telling people that they do crossfit. So after maybe the 50th time of hearing how great it was from a friend, I bought one. I have always loved cardio, so going into my first crossfit class, I was apprehensive to say the least. The workout was different from anything I had ever done before. And while I was completely intimidated during the hour long class, people were friendly. Mike, the owner, was helpful and patient. I left the class still unsure about whether this was something I could get into. I thanked Mike, and explained to him that I didn’t think it was for me. I didn’t have the body type for crossfit, and didn’t want to get huge muscles like the pictures I had seen. He laughed and told me I should come a few times a week, and give it another chance, and that people with all different body types do crossfit. I’m glad I took his advice, because he was right. As a fitness misfit, I can say wholeheartedly that for me personally, I have seen better results than any other workout I have ever done. I have been there for a year and a half and feel stronger than ever. I have struggled with an unhealthy body image for most of my life, and while I am so happy with the physical changes in my body from the crossfit program, I’m most proud of the confidence I have gained from it. I can’t say enough great things about Carozza Fitness. People are friendly, the coaches are helpful and accommodating, and once you get over the fear of trying something new, it’s a lot of fun!

Experiencia positiva: Great availability!

Experiencia fantástica: LOVE this gym! LOVE this community! LOVE the workout/training methods! LOVE THE RESULTS!

Experiencia fantástica: I first tried Carozza when I relocated jobs from a Westchester County and I am SO happy I stumbled across this place!! I love the gym layout, it’s a huge open space and it has everything you can possibly need ... no matter if your trying to just work out, do CrossFit or following a private training programming. Mike , the owner , is AWESOME as well. He me very accessible, friendly and knowledgeable on anything workout related. He is ALWAYS in the gym , so if you have any questions about a work out, technique or programming questions he is always there for you. And it also helps that he has a very likable personality and good humor :) Mike is very hands on and knows all his members, he is one of the best gym owners I have met. Sometimes if he has to run out of the gym for a errand , I can always text him any workout related questions and he gets back to me instantly. The gym is located in a school bus/construction warehouse type location but don’t let that throw you off ! It’s awesome inside :) My job got transferred back to NY last year, and I tried other gyms close to me, but the layout of the gym , Mikes hands on approach and the programming is what made new rejoin and drive a little out of my way up to Stamford ! And someone below commented about the bathrooms ? It’s a awesome gym , CrossFit gym, that gets RESULTS. If you want fancy bathrooms and fluffy bs, join Equinox.

Experiencia fantástica: It’s nice there and fun

Experiencia positiva: Great atmosphere, awesome trainers .. clean facility!!

Experiencia fantástica: Before Carozza I had been trying to get back into a normal routine at my regular gym, unsuccessfully. I had no motivation or discipline and I struggled to put a decent workout together. With Carozza I am now excited to workout! I am always challenged by the workouts and they are never boring. I don’t have to think about what I’m doing for the day. I just have to show up and give my best. Everyone is so supportive and encouraging. The best part is you’re never working out alone! The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable and personable- two of them being the owner, Michael Carozza and his sister Danielle! I highly recommend Carozza Fitness. It’s not just a gym. It’s a community. I’m about a month in and I already feel like I have a second home with CF. Thanks Michael, Danielle and Dave!

Experiencia fantástica: I’m very excited but also nervous at the same time to begin this journey. This is my 2nd week and so far every workout has been challenging and exhausting. However, I know I need to do this to get to the next level. The coaches are all helpful and motivated to get you thru the workouts. I can’t wait to see what I can accomplish.

Experiencia fantástica: Nice place for workout. Great equipment and knowledgeable staff

Experiencia fantástica: Great classes that fit most people's schedule. The trainers are not only athletic, but great teachers as well.

Experiencia fantástica: Good gym, great workouts, even better people!

Experiencia fantástica: Incredibly friendly and knowledgable trainers and staff, they’re always willing to give you personal help even during a class. Clear and concise posted workouts, ample floor space, and always plenty of equipment. Their app makes planning your workouts very easy. After 3 months I’ve seen more improvement in strength and stamina than a year in a chain gym. Would and have recommend to others.

Experiencia fantástica: I can't speak highly enough about this place! All the trainers are super friendly, knowledgeable, and they push members into tip top shape!! I'm awed by the athletes here -- truly inspiring. That said, it's a welcoming place for people of all abilities. Exercising is super fun here!

Experiencia fantástica: The best gym I have ever been to it's hard work but the positive feedback from my trainer pays off. I love the environment and challenges they offer.. If you are looking for a great workout with the best people this is the place..I never thought I would look forward to working out as I do now thanks to the likes of Mike and Brian...

Experiencia fantástica: Carozza Fitness is a fun gym for athletes of all ages and abilities. They offer a variety of classes each day so there is truly something for every level athlete. The space is amazing, with plenty of room and equipment for even the larger group classes. The coaching staff is knowledgeable and supportive in helping every member evolve towards their fitness goals whatever those might be in a fun, motivating, positive atmosphere!

Experiencia fantástica: If you’re serious about fitness, this is the place to come. Mike is encouraging and positive and works with everyone from beginners to cross fit veterans. I’m healthier, I’m stronger, aches and pains are mostly a thing of the past and I can work out with my (fit) adult children. We’ve all heard “no pain no gain”...you’ll work hard but the results are tangible. As Mike says, “no excuses, just results.”

Experiencia fantástica: Mike and his staff are the best. Great facility. Great coaches. Workouts that challenge all levels. The community is second to none. I came to workout but have stayed because of people. I have never felt more at home than I do when I walk through the doors at Carozza Fitness.

Experiencia fantástica: I’m a long time fan of Carozza Fitness! Great coaches and workouts that challenge me mentally and physically. Best gym out there!

Experiencia fantástica: Carozza Fitness / Crossfit Rippowam is the best gym ('scuse me, box) around. Some crossfit gyms have limited class times or focus too much on one sort of class. Not Carozza. There are crossfit classes, Just Results (same movements, lighter weights, higher reps, typically longer), Just results ROW (add in C2 row ergs), yoga, and mobility. There are also plenty of cardio machines, and there's lots of time for open hours if you want to do your own thing. Coaches are all fantastic--Mike, Danielle, Dan, Dave (there are others, but those are the ones for the classes I go to)--they're very focused on proper form and pushing you to do a little bit more than you think you can. The facility is great--big, open floor, locker rooms, lounge area. You can get Kettlebell Kitchen meals delivered there. On top of all that, Mike is always interested in helping in the community. I brought my Cub Scouts to CF one day to do a badge on fitness. While other scouts were doing some outdated compilation of situps and pushups, our boys were doing a 7 minute AMRAP WOD, complete with burpees and sled pushes. I asked for a donation for my other son's high school rugby team fundraiser, and Mike didn't flinch. I asked, and he's putting together a class for my older son's Boy Scout group who will be training for a 100 mile backpacking trip in New Mexico next summer. You can't ask for better customer service. The rates for this gym are definitely fair--perhaps even a bit lower than other crossfit gyms (I have the annual membership, which brings the monthly cost well below other gyms in the area). Come on in, you won't be sorry!

Experiencia fantástica: BEST DAMN GYM PERIOD

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent CrossFit facility in Stamford, CT. Excellent Instructors & Results! Expect to move and be ready to workout. Mike is the best! He recommended an app to count calories and like most of their Certified Instructors they are always available for advice. My favorite exercises were rowing at 5:00 AM YES 5 AM. Wall climbs and wall walks including running outside. Lockers available onsite with plenty of parking and good music selection to boot.

Experiencia fantástica: Great community

Experiencia fantástica: No Excuses, Just Results. That's the MOTTO at Carozza Fitness. And when you walk in and see guys tossing 75 lb Kegs, girls pushing sleds loaded with 45lb plates, it's obvious the motto holds true. Plenty of space, lots of rare equipment and exercise (My favorite is the sledge hammer and tire flip) This is Stamfords hidden encampment of high level training!!!
