About The Borough: CrossFit East Harlem
The Borough: CrossFit East Harlem is a supportive and welcoming CrossFit gym with roots from one of the first CrossFit affiliates in NYC. The coaches are encouraging and knowledgeable, accommodating all fitness levels from beginners to regional games athletes. The gym has a great community atmosphere, where members feel welcome and supported. The space is clean, well-lit, and has high ceilings, creating an airy feel. Although the gym size is decent for a New York City facility, classes are capped, making it comfortable for everyone. The owner, Nick Dedonno, is dedicated to creating a positive environment and is known for his extensive knowledge and experience in CrossFit. Customers highly recommend this gym for its excellent coaching, great programming, and friendly community, making it one of the best options in the neighborhood.
With roots from one of the first CrossFit affiliates in NYC, this space is exactly what you want in a box.
The coaches do well to accommodate all levels, with members ranging from beginner to regional games athletes. The space isn’t huge though you don’t really feel it as classes are capped. Well worth checking out if just for the friendly community.
Overall, best option in the neighborhood.
