Coach was awesome at pushing us through every set with a steady energy that kept everyone motivated, even when the workout got tough. He was constantly watching our form, catching small mistakes like a subtle lean or a wrist angle, and offered clear, helpful corrections that made the movements feel safer and more effective. When I mentioned my hurt shoulder, he didn’t just brush it off - instead, he came up with thoughtful substitute workouts that didn’t aggravate the injury but still challenged me. The way he balanced encouragement with precise guidance made the whole session feel personalized and manageable, not just another generic class. I highly recommend CrossFit Unshaken for anyone looking for a coach who truly cares about your progress and well-being.

I dropped in for class with coach Elli after months living outside San Antonio. Everytime I come back to Unshaken it feels like home. Coach Luis and Elli give great coaching on technique, always making sure you get the correct work stimulus for a balanced training scheme.
Elli was a great coach during my session Her attention to detail made the whole experience feel personalized, which really stands out at CrossFit Unshaken. It’s the kind of coaching that makes you want to come back and push yourself even more.
Ellie as awesome! Great feedback and keeping me honest with the workout. Thanks so much!!!
Coach Elli did great today, Showed the correct way to make the moves and encourage the class to give our best. I enjoyed the session today
Coach Luis does a very good job
The coach (Luis) at CrossFit Unshaken makes workouts motivating by always pushing me just enough without overwhelming me. They keep the energy up and make sure everyone stays engaged. The variety in workouts also helps keep things interesting and fun.
I went to a trial class at CrossFit Unshaken and immediately noticed how welcoming and friendly coach Luis and the gym members were. The class was challenging and kept you engaged.
Elli was great! The workout on the other hand was not so great.
Luis was extremely welcoming from the moment I walked in, greeting me as I walked in and immediately made me feel like I belonged, even though it was my first visit. Throughout the workout, he continuously offered encouragement with an energy that kept me motivated without feeling pressured. The group around me was just as supportive - everyone worked hard but without any judgment, and their positive energy pushed me through the workout. Even being my first visit, I felt like part of the team.
Great instructor, offers positive feedback and encourages everyone. His experience, knowledge, and passion are very evident and it translates in his style of coaching. Highly recommend Mr Luis Gonzalez with CrossFit Unshaken
Luis was amazing and helped out a lot with explaining the workout and movements I was doing. He was very motivating and made the workout fun even though I was running and that helped me get through it. The modifications he gave me helped out a lot with the pain I had and making sure I didn’t make it worse.
CrossFit Unshaken is such a great place to be. Coach Luis embodies what we all want in a coach - he is knowledgeable and supportive in every way. During workouts, he carefully watches each member’s form, offers adjustments to improve technique, and takes time to check in personally with everyone. He strives to make sure he is helping every single person progress safely and effectively. The community here is welcoming and motivating; always cheering each other on. The classes are well organized with clear instructions. The workouts are challenging but scalable based on individual needs so everyone can keep moving forward I highly recommend CrossFit Unshaken to anyone looking for a positive and supportive training community.
Coach Luis was pretty attentive to any possible questions we had throughout the session. Right from the start, he took the time to give a quick tour of the gym for the three of us new members, pointing out key areas. This helped us feel more comfortable in the space and ready to jump in without hesitation. He also set aside a moment at the beginning of class for introductions, which really helped break the ice and made it easier to connect with the other members. The class itself was great - every progression and exercise, from planks to box jumps, was explained clearly, so it was easy to follow along even as the pace picked up. Luis made sure to highlight important safety recommendations. What I appreciated most was how he checked in with us during the workout, noticing when needed extra help or even encouragement. Combined with the warm community vibe at the box, the entire experience felt welcoming and motivating from start to finish.
Coach Ellie is fantastic! She explains every movement so well that it's easy to follow along. I love that she’s always ready to clarify doubts and constantly motivates us during the workout. She helped me with my technique and gave me great tips to improve my box jumps. She’s a great coach and a very kind person
Luis is always great. Very personable but also direct and stays the course. Keeps us on target.
Excellent gym for every time I’m in town! Quick text to coach the day before class. Deliberate warm-up time, class structure, very clean, everyone’s polite & introduces themselves!
I had a great drop in class with Luis this morning! He was extremely welcoming, knowledgeable, and passionate about CrossFit and the community. If I lived in the area, this would absolutely be my home gym.
Always a fun and amazing time 🙌🏻🙏🏻
Coach Luis is an amazing CrossFit coach. He is incredibly patient, which makes every session less intimidating and more productive. His focus on teaching proper form has built my confidence and made me stronger while preventing injury. We always feel well-coached in his class!
Incredible coach! Very attentive and always wants you to perform the training sessions well!
CrossFit Unshaken is the best box! Hands down my favorite! Coach Luis is amazing and his coaching is great!
What personal change have you noticed since joining this gym?" Since joining CrossFit Unshaken, I've noticed a significant improvement in my overall strength and endurance. The supportive community and varied workouts keep me motivated and engaged. My confidence has grown, and I feel more energized throughout the day. Your willing to explain the exercises to make sure everyone gets it, that’s what make it effective and makes you an awesome coach. Thank you
My experience with Coach Luis was absolutely incredible. From the moment I walked in, he made me feel supported, encouraged, and capable. He guided me step by step, stayed right by my side, and was extremely patient with me throughout the entire session. As someone who is just starting this journey, and as a mother of several children, it meant so much to feel seen and cared for. The environment he created was uplifting, motivating, and filled with genuine kindness. Coach Luis was truly a blessing to me that day. His encouragement and professionalism helped me overcome fear, push through my limits, and believe in myself again. I left feeling stronger not only physically, but also mentally and spiritually. This gym is special because of coaches like him—people who truly care and who make you feel like you belong from the very first moment. I’m very grateful for the experience.
Coach Luis provided outstanding feedback throughout the session. The smaller class size allowed for personalized, one-on-one guidance, which I greatly appreciated. The facility was exceptionally clean and welcoming, creating a comfortable atmosphere from the moment I walked in. The class itself was both challenging and highly encouraging, making it a truly rewarding experience.
I’ve been a long time member, but when work and life get in the way, I tend to miss a few weeks, and go back. There’s never any pressure to go back before I’m ready to, in fact Luis does frequent check-ins to make sure I'm ok. He sets you up for success. Today I went back after a good while away, I scaled, but he still challenged me to challenge myself. Always a good workout, and always the best atmosphere to be the best version of yourself!! So grateful for this gym!!
Elli you are a great coach! Keep it up. I enjoy coming to your class
Coach Eli and Luis are amazing coaches. I’ve been to many gyms and often start over more than I stay consistent, but CrossFit Unshaken always welcomes us with open arms and keeps us grounded in the why behind every workout. Eli and Luis don’t just lead the sessions - they take time to notice how everyone is doing, whether it’s adjusting the movements to fit different skill levels or reminding us of the purpose behind each exercise. That makes every workout feel meaningful, not just routine. Thanks for building a community of great people who genuinely care.
Coach Luis was clear and concise with his explanation of the workout and the techniques involved with the lifts. This is truly appreciated. Thank you!
The class was great!!! 😊
I absolutely love this gym and would rate it 5/5! Being a first timer to Crossfit I was hesitant but the environment is welcoming, and the coaches - Luis & Elli do a fantastic job creating workouts tailored to every athlete — from beginners to experienced CrossFitters. They focus on improving technique and help me challenge myself in a way that builds both strength and confidence. The community here is incredible — friendly, supportive, and always motivating to push limits. It’s the perfect place for anyone to grow, learn, and feel their best! This is one thing I look forward to everyday.
Ellie was great and extremely helpful!
He's very kind and patient when teaching the exercises, especially since I'm new. Thank you.
Luis was great. He took the time to demonstrate all the moves and had us do them to familiarize ourselves with them, very personable, positive and encouraging

Nice way to ease back into it! Great class!
I was visiting from out of town and looked for a box nearby! I messaged Luis and he quickly got back with me and set up to join class the next day. He was very welcoming as were the other members. His box is beautiful and is well ran. I liked it so much, I came back the next day! I’ll definitely visit again when I’m back in the area! Appreciate the work!
First workout after many years of neglecting my health and what an incredible experience! Luis (and the other women working out) made me feel so welcome and comfortable exactly where I am at today! I am even more motivated to keep showing up. Thank you!!
