CrossFit Sand and Steel is one of the most welcoming gyms in the area. Their instructors are knowledgeable and dedicated to ensuring you're set up for success. They are flexible and accomodate to different type of styles weather its group workouts or more open gym. Paul, the owner, is a true professional and makes sure you have a great experience! 10/10 gym.

I loved my time at Sand & Steel and highly recommend it. I recently moved from the area and was truly sad to leave the community. I joined the gym as a crossfit sceptic, but S & S was the only gym I could find with great covid protocols during mid to late stages of the pandemic. It took me about two or three months to really settle in and get comfortable. Once it all clicked, I enjoyed the varied workouts, the thorough coaching, and the visible results. The coaching staff are awesome. Dawn and Paul, the owners, were very accommodating. I highly recommend... even if you don't think you will like crossfit.

I didn’t know what CrossFit was until I came to Sand and Steal. My professor invited me to workout with him. I met Paul on my first class workout and he was so welcoming, he showed me to workout the right way to make sure I don’t get injured. I have never workout so hard in little time before. After the class was over. Paul invited me to his second class and so I joined. On the second is when I met Dawn and she was also very welcoming. They both gave me good feedback as I was working out. This is the place where you will feel motivated and reach your personal fitness goals done. I definitely recommend you want to see progress. You will feel the pain and the gain. Thank you all for having me and made me feel welcomed.

CrossFit Sand & Steel has had a huge impact on my health and well-being. I was a bit nervous to sign up at first given I had been sedentary for years and not in the best physical shape. I am so glad I did sign up though because it has been life-changing. The instructors are all great— starting with Paul and Dawn and they are very professional and committed to your fitness goals. Alicia, Jose, EJ and Jen are also amazing and are solid partners to me in my journey to better health. They are all extremely knowledgeable, patient and professional. They have also built a great sense of community and belonging at their location. For all this I am extremely grateful!

This review is for all the people who second guess their ability to do CrossFit or any kind of fitness:The OnRamp classes are great for individuals with ZERO to little CrossFit experience. Paul is diligent about making sure your form and technique is correct. All of the trainers are kind, helpful, and knowledgable! The workouts are fantastic and challenging no matter your fitness level. The people are the BEST part of Sand and Steele! The community is awesome! Everyone here from the coaches to the members are absolutely amazing and encouraging (even when you almost bust your behind trying to jump over a hurdle)!Shoutout to my personal trainer Jose who always keeps me accountable and moving while making the sessions fun!

I wish I had read about the cancellation policy closely before joining the gym. They charge you for 3 months regardless of the circumstances for cancellation. which is over $600 to cancel the membership. Anyone joining new please consider whether you are ready to make a 1 year commitment. This fine print is not eay to come across during sign-up.My appartments lease term policy is more flexible.

Joining this gym was the best decision I made in 2022. Seriously! The trainers are top notch and the community is super supportive as everyone continues to work on their personal journeys to become stronger and healthier. If you show up and stay consistent, it's as simple as 1+1. The trainers and coaches are great at modifying or "scaling" exercises to match your fitness level. They will give you personalized feedback and undivided attention during your sessions, if you're doing personal training. I've gotten to a place where I really look forward to my time at the gym, and watching my body do things that it couldn't just a month prior has been amazing. JOIN. You won't regret it

This gym welcomes EVERYONE...Except of course unvaccinated people. I mean, the vaccine doesn't stop transmission or infection and isn't FDA approved (Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) only) but they'll still gladly discriminate again you and your personal choice.

If you're looking for a place to improve your overall fitness and health, regardless of whether or not you know anything about Crossfit, Sand and Steel is the place to be. The owners, Paul and Dawn, and their team of skilled and knowledgeable coaches, will do everything they can to make sure you are meeting your goals. Workouts are tailored to your individual needs while also challenging you. The staff is super responsive, easily reachable, and very friendly! As for the services, there are a number of them, from Yoga to Nutrition classes to Personal Training. Even with a hectic schedule, there is something here for everyone. The sense of accomplishment after completing a difficult workout and the community that has been built here are two reasons why I continue to return day after day. I highly recommend Sand and Steel not only for the services, but also for the diverse and inclusive environment that has fostered a group of like-minded individuals. Very grateful to be part of the S&S family.

My first CrossFit experience after a lot of research, and I do not regret it! The coaches and owners have tons of invaluable experience and certifications that apply to almost anyone and any fitness, mobility and nutrition angle you can think of. They lead an inclusive and welcoming box that knows how to bring in new members of varying fitness levels, and more importantly to me, injury issues.They have done an amazing job listening to my injury history and concerns and helping me scale any workout to my needs, and focusing on form as key to injury prevention and rehab!

Great atmosphere , Owners and staff are knowledge and thorough, provide specific and meticulous instruction. The gym's Personal Training model is exactly what I needed; incorporating the workouts of the day with individualized custom training. I am delighted that I found the gym, and look forward to working with the group.

Having moved to NoVA in the last few months finding a gym that was inclusive, diverse, and challenging was a must for me. There were SO many gyms to pick from that left me feeling overwhelming but came upon this gym went in for my initial consultation and signed up right in the spot. If you want a gym full of friendly people, that’s diverse, inclusive, and challenging. This. Is. The. One.

Went to check out Sand and Steel after being forced to take time off thanks to Covid and lung damage…. After twelve years in the community, I can be picky about my home box. Dawn and Paul have been wonderful. They have taken serious steps to protect their members against infection, and in introducing my never been to CrossFit hubby to it; the foundations classes have been set up very well! Thank you so much!
