Coach Amanda is always so great to work with! I sometimes struggle with little technique tips and form, but she is excellent at giving constructive feedback that helps me improve! She notices the small details, and guides me through corrections in a way that feels encouraging! Every class with her at CrossFit Shipwreck is a joy to go to - there’s a positive energy she brings that makes even the toughest workouts feel manageable and rewarding. It’s clear she cares about each person’s progress, and that makes showing up to class something I to look forward to!

Kyle provides helpful guidance on my weight selections, form, and any modifications in a supportive and positive way! He notices when my form starts to waver and offers corrections that make me feel more confident and safe throughout the workout. Being newer to CrossFit, I really appreciate how he understands when I need to challenge myself and when to scale back. Kyle and the other coaches create an inclusive and welcoming environment!

Trevor is an outstanding coach who brings a lot of energy to every session. He keeps the workouts engaging and fun, which makes it easier to push through even the toughest exercises. I’ve noticed he pays close attention to everyone’s form and offers helpful tips to improve technique without slowing down the flow. Being around his positive attitude really lifts the whole atmosphere at CrossFit Shipwreck. It’s clear he genuinely enjoys coaching, and that makes the gym feel like a place where you want to keep coming back.

What was the highlight of today's workout? Today was my first day back in a while at CrossFit Shipwreck. Daniel was a first-class coach, demonstrating proper form clearly and walking me through each movement step-by-step. Throughout the entire workout, he offered positive critiques that felt encouraging rather than overwhelming. He noticed when my stance was off and gently guided me to adjust, which made a noticeable difference in how the exercises felt. Thank you for being a great coach!! It’s always great to find a gym with coaches who know how to positively impact your life - not just physically but mentally too. Daniel’s focus on both your form and your outlook created an atmosphere that made me feel confident and motivated to push myself further. This kind of coaching makes all the difference, especially after being away for a while.

The coaches at CrossFit Shipwreck really believe in me every session, which makes a huge difference in my motivation. Even in a big class setting, they take the time to support all abilities by noticing who needs modifications and who can handle more intensity. They guide us through each exercise with attention to form and encourage us to push safely without feeling overwhelmed. I leave feeling challenged but confident, knowing the workout was tailored to where I am that day. It’s rare to find a place where you feel seen and supported no matter your level, and that’s what makes CrossFit Shipwreck stand out.

Trying to get back into it after a total knee replacement has been challenging, but Coach Hunter, like all of the coaches at CrossFit Shipwreck, was very supportive in giving me some options for the workout that were within my abilities. He carefully listened to what I could handle and suggested modifications that kept me moving without overdoing it. I appreciated how he checked on me throughout, making sure I was comfortable while still feeling challenged. The atmosphere at CrossFit Shipwreck is welcoming and encouraging, and I always feel so much support when I come here.
