Brazen was a second home to me. I came to them with very little experience working out, and left with a lifetime of knowledge. All of the staff is amazing, friendly, knowledgeable, and inclusive. I’m going to miss this gym so much! If I wasn’t moving, I’d never leave.

I love Brazen! The coaches are so friendly and knowledgeable. They work with you if you have any injuries or limitations, and even the most advanced athletes are very welcoming. The space is huge, which is hard to find in the area. Highly recommend

I’ll start by saying this, I’m super picky about where I go to the gym. The trainers can’t be scared to give me constructive criticism because I’m there to grow. Also, the vibes of the members have to be good. That said, I cannot recommend this place enough. The trainers have taught me so much in my time spent there. Also, the community of people is awesome. Even if they don’t know me super well, I can count on the high fives/fist bumps after class.I only left the gym because I moved to a new city and the commute became too much. But trust me, if I could pick up this gym and move it to my new city, I totally would still be a member. Highly recommend!

Brazen is a great place to start your fitness journey! The instructors are encouraging and helpful. Every exercise is demonstrated and explained and are adaptable to your ability level. The other athletes are supportive and motivating. The atmosphere is great. I’ll miss brazen, and I will be returning in the future when my schedule permits!

I joined Brazen in September of 2022. This was after years of being “afraid” of doing CrossFit.I had worked with a coach who trained me on CrossFit moves, etc and he was amazing. But that was my comfort zone. Just me and the coach and I was good.My fear was group classes. In order for me to grow, I scheduled a “no sweat” session at Brazen.As soon as I walked into Brazen - I truly felt like I was home again. Elise met with me and walked me through everything and before I left I signed up.My first class was with Maddie - she introduced herself and made me feel comfortable with being there. The athletes also introduced themselves and that made me even more comfortable with my decision.I used to think how can the coaches see and coach all of in a group. That was disproven time and time again. The coaches are focused on the athletes and do watch us and ensure we are comfortable with the movements and ensure we do not injure ourselves. The coaches and athletes here are so amazing and supportive. I do not regret training here.If there was advice I could offer anyone who is on the fence about joining and doing CrossFit is to just meet with them. Do not take as long as I did to make the decision to join - you will not regret it.

Such a great community of folks just trying to get their lift on! I was a regular in the 5:30 AM class for over a year and shared the gym with some incredible coaches and fellow lifters. I only stopped because I had to move. Sad.

Great coaches, facility, and people! Dropped in for a few days and absolutely loved everything about it. If you’re looking for quality instruction, a fun atmosphere, and a solid workout, Brazen is it.

This place has been great for me. Coming back to crossfit after 5 years of enjoying life mixed with inconsistent workout routines, I was in a bad place. They helped me scale lifts and still get in great workouts to help me get back on track and working in the direction I want to go. Coaches are very observant and keep communication the entire class to ensure your form is on. Again, this place has really helped get me back on track.

I lived in the DMV for 4 years and becoming a Brazen member was easily one of the best decisions I made during that time. As a 3-year member, Brazen allowed me to take my fitness to the next level and reach goals I once thought were far-fetched. On top of the outstanding fitness programming and coaching (commitment to ensuring movements are properly performed for optimal performance and safety), I established long-lasting friendships with other athletes. If I ever re-locate to the area, re-instating my membership will be the first thing I do. I thoroughly enjoyed my Brazen experience and I’m sure you will, too. I highly recommend joining this amazing community!

The staff are incredibly helpful and are definitely invested in seeing you grow and improve. The classes helped me reach my goals and I hit my PRs for many of the lifts.

I had to forget whatever stereotypes I had picked up about CrossFit type workouts, because this place consistently delivered great physical training in a supportive and intelligently programmed fashion without a lot of hype and excess. Huge fan!

The owners and coaches are amazing at brazen fitness. I’ve been thoroughly impressed by the experience and even more so by the integrity of the owners and community in general. I started with brazen in 2019 working with a personal trainer. Fast forward to today, and after a unhealthy hiatus mainly due to Covid-19, I’m back in the gym with a new trainer and new outlook. The one thing that hasn’t changed is brazen and I’m so thankful for their consistency and the stability they bring to my routine!

Great gym, have been to quite a few CF gyms all over the world but the strength and conditioning and coaching at this one is the best. Very large schedule of classes so you can workout pretty much whenever you like.

It's a really nice, chilled out environment. It's not what you would say about a "gym" but it's what's great about brazen. Coaches are great and everyone is super friendly.
