Sara was great. Thanks for the help with my form on the rower.
Amanda was awesome :) super thorough, made me feel at home, and encouraging. Thanks for class.

The knowledge base is priceless. Coaching at South Haven CrossFit is top notch!!
Amanda is a great coach. Her knowledge of proper form and the specific movements and workouts is evident, and she knows how to push you and make you a better athlete. She’s very motivating and she makes the classes fun.
Amanda is great at explaining all the exercises and helping adjust the workout to fit individual needs. I love her positive energy and encouragement.
I have been so intimidated and just scared of working out again at 47 yes old and 80 lbs overweight but although I worked hard and may have cried in the car, I feel amazing now and can't wait until the next class Thank you for your patience and encouragement
Thank you so much for making my first day so welcoming. Sara did a wonderful job leading the fundamentals class before my first workout. She carefully walked me through how to use each piece of equipment, demonstrating proper form and explaining why it matters. I really appreciated her clear guidance on how I can start slowly and build up my strength without overwhelming myself. Her attention to detail was reassuring - she noticed when I hesitated on certain movements and offered gentle encouragement and helpful adjustments. Knowing that the coach is supporting beginners in such a thoughtful way helps take away the “newbie” jitters and made me feel confident to keep coming back. The whole experience at CrossFit South Haven felt supportive and well-paced, exactly what I needed for my first day.
Amanda is a phenomenal coach! She is great at watching your form for proper technique and provides assistance with correcting the movements.
First day and even though I wasn’t quite sure what to do Vanessa was kind and supportive while she taught. She understood that we all go at different speeds but just kept encouraging movement no matter the pace.
I found you to be knowledgeable, you brought great energy and I liked the music ( I know you’re not a dj). I liked that you pushed the regulars and kept them motivated
Sarah is an excellent coach who recognizes when modifications are needed and provides a variety of options for beginners through the pros! She pushes you to achieve the goal of the day and encourages breaking down sets to make the goal more achievable. Thank you Sara! Today was hard but great!
I was super happy with my workout today. Your adjustments to my workout was extremely helpful.
Always positive and encouraging while pushing us to go harder!
Amanda is passionate about helping others and coaching. I always love her classes!
You do not correct or criticize, you encourage and empower. You are confident and knowledgeable. You manage groups effectively while providing Individualized attention to members. Coaching seems effortless for you! You get excited when you see your group members make progress toward their goals. I very much look forward to your classes!
Emily is the perfect trainer for a 0530 class! Her youthful enthusiasm brings every session to life, making those early mornings something to look forward to. She’s excellent at demonstrating movements clearly and always provides plenty of encouragement to keep everyone motivated. Emily truly sets the tone for a positive and energetic start to the day.
Amanda was great she lead me threw my first time of CrossFit smooth and with great professionalism I was nervous at first but her and the my peers made me feel welcomed the atmosphere was great and the support was amazing I’m ready to see you guys next class highly recommend Crossfit South Haven over a gym
Vanessa balances the right amount of push with the right amount of compassion for a crossfire’s limitations. Always an enjoyable experience and one I can be proud to keep trying
Sara was great. I felt welcome and part of the CrossFit SouthHaven community. I didn’t feel pressured to do anything beyond my capacity. Sara seemed to recognize the limitations of my age. The gym was clean and well equipped I’m used to seeing the workout on whiteboard and thought the use of monitors was a great way to present the workout.
Amazing teacher & great motivator. So good at explaining everything, especially for a begginer like me.
Dropped in and felt very welcome. Emily provided great demos and movement prompts. I heard she has eyes in the back of her head.

Good class, attentive coaching.
Vanessa was very supportive and for someone like me who just started CrossFit. This was my first group workout and Vanessa made it motivating and understanding.
I regularly travel to South Haven, and when I’m in town I love working out at CrossFit South Haven. The gym is clean and well equipped; the people are welcoming, and each coach has helped me learn and grow. This summer I was coached by Emily for the first time. She leads with clarity, and she knows when to affirm and when to push for more results. She has a signature spiciness that infuses extra fun into the classes! Not to mention that she can tackle the toughest workout without breaking a sweat!
Emily was great! Energetic, helpful.
Aaron was very helpful this morning and really helped my dad and I push through the work out and make it to the end. He also gave very helpful tips on the proper form that should be used which was very nice.
Aaron is a great coach! He is very helpful, teaching me how to do each exercises properly. He is always encouraging and makes the class fun!
Sara was super encouraging and made me feel much more confident. She did a great job of pushing me to challenge myself without overdoing it. I went into the class feeling anxious about my abilities, but I’m grateful Sara was there to coach me past the jitters.
Awesome as always!
Great pacing with a full class today!
Amanda is Great coach. Good at pushing you to do better and be better.
Amanda was right there when I needed her during my first group workout. She answered questions and corrected my form when needed. Thank you Amanda!
She’s the best! Always pushes me past what I think my limits are. Such an encouraging coach.
Sara and Amanda are both great coaches. Always challenging people to push themselves but also constantly watching our form and technique to be sure we are safe. Great experience!
I enjoy it when Sara's coaching. She makes it fun. The classes tend to kick my butt, but I know it's a good outcome, because I have been toning my body, and I believe I'm still losing weight. I haven't yet I'm afraid to get on the scale. I only have like 7-9 pounds to go. I've been atte ding for almost a month and a half, I love it, I feel I made a good decision
The class was great! Clean gym and fun music! Looking forward to coming back soon!
He did great today, was very helpful since it was my first class! Corrected some movements for me and watched to make sure I was good! Appreciated that! Thanks for a great first class!
Aaron is great! He motivates me to keep going when it gets tough. He makes the 5:30 a.m. workout a great class.
Amanda was great ! Her instructions were clear and concise, allowing us to be able to have a fun safe workout.
Sarah is a great coach .. she helps me reach goals and encourages me to continue when I think I want to give up.. she's kind and is helpful in explaining the workout of the day .. her coaching makes me want to return and do better
Coaching is wonderful, I don’t see where you can improve on in class coaching. You give such great advice on nutrition and other things it would be gun to get a tip of the day At Facebook or on a whiteboard or something Along those lines
Aaron did great. He was informative, instructive and allowed us time plenty of time for each workout
