CrossFit Coastal Carolina & Tidal Training

Today was my first day back in CrossFit after being out for about a year. The workout was amazing and Leslie was a phenomenal coach and very supportive and encouraging. This will be my new gym. I have nothing negative to say about any part of the gym, class or coach. It was all absolutely amazing.

What’s one personal change you’ve noticed since joining CrossFit Coastal Carolina & Tidal Training? Ray he is the best ! Always watching for safety and right form of exercise drills

I found this gym after searching for 9 months and it’s exactly what I was looking for - challenging workouts paired with a welcoming community. I have been attending classes for over a month now and find Whitney to be an excellent coach. She has the ability to easily deal with different strength levels within a class as well as the personality to engage with all different ages. She gives very thorough instructions while going over the workout and specific guidance during the workouts when necessary. I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking to drop in while visiting HHI or as a place to workout daily. You’ll really enjoy it!

Loved the class at CrossFit Coastal Carolina & Tidal Training. Mark was great about giving feedback throughout the session, carefully watching my movements and making sure I had proper form on each exercise. For example, during the wall balls, he took the time to correct my posture, reminding me to keep my chest up and knees aligned, which made a big difference in how the exercise felt and prevented strain. His attention helped me push through the workout with confidence, knowing I was doing each movement safely and effectively. The environment felt friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in - the energy was upbeat but relaxed. Thanks, Mark!

Always positive and upbeat in Whitney’s classes!

I enjoyed my drop in. The 0530 athletes made me feel welcomed and the gym was adequately equipped for the workout. The Coach did an excellent job as his ques and one on one feedback were personalized for each athlete. I encourage as well as enjoy dropping in to gyms every chance I get close to 25 different states now. I confidently would say your coach this morning rated in the top 5 of my experiences. I was so impressed I have decided to return tomorrow morning as well. Thank you for a very positive experience and opportunity to share this feedback.

Ben, you rocked it

I want to give her more than 5 stars!

Rachel is a highly skilled coach. She’s patient and attentive and eager to work with you, regardless of your fitness level.

Genesis really helped me with my form, pushed me to do my best, and made sure I got a great workout in.

Always a great workout with coach Ray. He’s very technical and worries about everyone’s form during class.

I like rowing and raising my arms up holding my hands” together to stretch…”Whitney helps me on the rower” with my paralyzed hand to hold on so I can row. “I like walking at Cross Fit.” I will Row on Friday Oct. 17 and my sister Elizabeth is going to SPONSOR ME AND” I ROW WITH MY FRIENDS”

Whitney is always interactive with the class and excited to teach!

Very good coach and teaches the fundamentals well.

Siobhan was very friendly and encouraging! She explained the warmup and moves with understandable detail. I will definitely be back

Excellent job- showed and explained new way to do box step overs

Explains the workout so that you can understand it. Helps you to appropriately scale if needed. Encourages you. Always a pleasure to be around!

Great class! Enjoy your coaching very much, good thoughts on how to approach the workout! Thanks

Class was amazing today!!!! Appreciated the guidance from Whitney on how to do a thruster! She really helped me use muscles that I haven’t used before!! Thank you Whitney!!

The whole class, including Coach Whitney, was friendly and encouraging. I’ll be returning!

I really enjoyed the structure of the class! It’s nice to see a coach led warmup again.

I had a wonderful experience in Whitney’s class. She was very attentive to everyone and articulated the intent of the wod in an easy to understand manner. Thanks!!!

Always amazing when Ray coaches! He watched me like a hawk to make sure I’m performing correctly and at my potential!

Ray is such an awesome coach! Simply the best

Just moved to Bluffton last week, Coastal Carolina is about 40 minutes away. Well worth the trip! Whitney was very welcoming and attentive. She willing to give suggestions and scale the workout to fit who you are. Highly recommend this gym! Thanks Whitney for a great first workout in SC.

Whitney’s class was great! I am coming back from knee surgery and have an active Achilles issue and she gave me some alternative exercises to do and still get a great workout!!

Morgan was so helpful and accommodating for our first time at the gym. The workout was great!

Class was so good that I came back the next day! Coaches Leslie and Mark were great, awesome class, felt very comfortable, you have a great community there.

Pretty gooddddd

Ben did a great job explaining the warm ups and barbell cycles today. Good push during the metcon. Great experience dropping in.

Devin has special needs and sees Whitney on Thursdays. He isn’t able to tell us a lot but we know he enjoys Crossfit & looks forward to Thursday afternoons. Whitney does a great job with Devin & all his friends. We so appreciate what she does.

Mark’s a great coach. He encourages you to push yourself while not being overly pushy. He focuses on your form and looks for ways to accommodate any limitations while still challenging you to do just a little bit more than you thought you could. Thanks Mark! (You didn’t ask but Rachel and Whitney are awesome too!)

My coach was Laura Christie & she’s the best. Always positive & energetic plus she ensures that we get a good workout!

Mark went above and beyond, calling out when it was time to do wall walks every round in case someone missed the timer and that everyone else was getting off their rowers. Mark is a real man of genius.

Ray is great at usual. Aidan and Madi said it was their favorite class, the l

Ray is a fantastic gym coach. Whether there are two people in class or ten, Ray gives everyone personalized guidance through a workout. I’ve only been there for a few months and he already knows my trigger word that motivates me to work harder.

Awesome drop in this morning! Whitney was the best!

Awesome. Great coach!

Good programming. I enjoyed the laid back atmosphere.

Whitney is the best coach I've had in CrossFit. She's very knowledgeable about the anatomy, the exercises, and exercise alternatives if you need to do something different. All the while she makes it fun, encouraging and supportive. Keeps me a regular!

Whitney is a fantastic coach. She is encouraging, fun, and technically knowledgeable. She always pushes me to do a little more than I think I can, and get psyched to come back and try again.

Coach Laura is an awesome row coach! She Keeps us motivated and her class is always an amazing workout. Both on and off the rower!!!

Whitney is always motivating and engaging and ready to meet everyone wherever they are to promote movement!

Great! Dropped in and had good experience with coach and class

Mark was great! Answered all my questions and gave me great scaling options as someone who is just being refreshed on CrossFit. Thank you 🙏

Coach Ben was his usual awesome self!!! Go, Coach!!!

Coach Laura was outstanding as always pushed us hard with positive energy and enthusiasm.

Our coach was Laura Christy. Great class. Definitely a workout.

Whitney does a great job

Ben was welcoming, knowledgeable and supportive in the way of offering alternatives to the sessions’ layout. Great camaraderie amongst instructor and members.

People were very inviting and great workout. Look forward to becoming a member after retirement.

Whitney is fabulous & is always willing to answer my questions. I attend the gym every time I am In town, and even though I am not a full time member I am greeted with such kindness from the community!

Best coach ever. Multi tasking of coaching and teaching out of shape adults was spot on. Job well done.

So much fun! The Jesus music was my fav part!

WHITNEY IS THE BEST

Very patient, well paced...best coach ever!!!....what can I say???...she's my wife ....🤣...and I don't want to sleep outside

Always encouraging with her coaching. Ensures we are using correct form and is open to change the work out on an individual basis to address our needs or recovery from injuries. Great work out. Thanks. Rachel!!

I have been to numerous CrossFit gyms around the country and Whitney is by far the best! She completely understands all athletes abilities, modifies workouts accordingly and offers a fun and positive environment. I would highly recommend Xfit Coastal Carolina to anyone traveling or local!!

She did great! Always pleasant and pushes us just enough! I am not regular so just come when I can but feel I get a good workout and get my heart rate up!

I had the opportunity to start training with Coach Whitney for over a year ago, and her professionalism is unmatched. She is always prepared, highly knowledgeable, and truly dedicated. Her attention to detail, especially when it comes to form and technique, ensures a safe and effective workout every time.

Rachel was engaging and a fun coach. As a new student she kept an eye on me and gave feedback and support when needed and worked within my current set of limitations. Good experience all around.

A very fun and friendly gym to drop into!

I am just coming off a knee replacement so I love how she fits the program to suit my needs.

I've been tortured... err, trained by Coach G for a few years now, and I'm hooked! She has Convince me that burpees are fun (lies!) Taught me to love leg day (who knew?) Helped me lift heavier than my ego and over all she's a great friend.

Dr. Rachel is an awesome coach! Her knowledge of CrossFit and physical therapy has helped me become a better athlete.

Whitney is the absolute best!!!! She’s motivating without being “in your face” she offers advice & tiny corrections that make major differences. She’s a 10 out of 10!

Great! Workout consisted of 12 Cals on a bike , 10 right/left ball drops and stick sit-ups for 24 minutes. After approx 4mo. with Whitney my body & mind are in a better place.

Coach was awesome! Great workouts this week while in Hilton Head. See ya again

Fantastic coaches all around! Great vibe and very friendly people! I’m definitely sticking around here!!

Mark did a good job to help me get a good workout based on my ability
