Harrison did great. His warm up was very thorough and his timing was well done. The workout had a great stimulus with a combo of dynamic and static movements. Great gym.
Attended open gym to flush out before FOTC! All coaches were very welcoming! Gym was organized and clean. Great hospitality😊
We had Coach Miles for the 6:30am class. The group itself was very welcoming and friendly. Miles great with coaching the warm up, explaining the workout and coaching through it. Timeliness of the class was awesome, very well managed and structured we would 100% comeback again!
He is very motivational and help with correcting your form as well as pushing you to your limits. Love the atmosphere he brings to the gym and his horrible dad jokes!
Joe was awesome! Can’t wait to work with him again!
Best gym in Charleston. They really care about helping reach your goals with the upmost attention to form and safety.
Coach Mike offered good advice to help fix my form and posture for my first session at Holy City. Loved the energy of the group and how supportive everyone was!
I think the biggest thing that I've learned so far is just breaking down the steps of each Olympic lift. I feel like you can never drill technique enough I feel like that helps you end up, lifting heavier, weights, and also staying safe
I dropped in during open gym hours and had an incredible workout. Coach Joe and Coach Mike were on the floor and helped me with my Olympic lift technique. And after that Coach Joe helped motivate me to a 15 pound bench PR. All in all a super supportive and positive gym. 10/10 would recommend.
I came as a drop in and this Box is top notch! Mike is an amazing coach/owner with extensive knowledge. Next time I’m in the area I will certainly be stopping by again.
I love this place! Everyone is welcoming and helpful. I learn something new every time I work out. Highly recommend
Joe is a fantastic coach! Helped me fix a slight form issue with my back squat that was fatiguing my lower back! With the help, it made a huge difference for the rest of my lift 🤘🏼
How has Coach Miles helped you improve or change?" Coach Miles has helped me improve my form and technique, which has made a big difference in my overall performance. He provides clear instructions and personalized feedback that really helps me understand what I need to work on. His encouragement keeps me motivated, even on tough days. At Holy City CrossFit, his attention to detail and commitment to each athlete’s progress stand out. He adjusts workouts to fit individual needs, making sure everyone can improve safely and effectively.
Miles was awesome at our noon class. We dropped in from Utah. We have a few years of CrossFit experience and Miles did a great job offering the class scaling options. He went through a great warm up that slowly progressed us into the WOD’s movements, so we were feeling ready to go! He gave lots of great coaching cues for us to focus on to have safe, efficient movements. 10/10 would recommend checking this gym out for great coaching!!
Excellent CrossFit box to visit while in Charleston! Coaches Mike and Miles were well versed in the art of coaching, the small slice of community I saw (early AM!) was welcoming and great company, and the gym was well organized and clean. Really enjoyed dropping in here, and I could tell they have a tight knit community with coaches who care!
Holy City CrossFit is a special part of my life. It keeps me strong and healthy through workouts that challenge my limits while building my endurance and flexibility. But beyond the physical benefits, it’s also socially so fulfilling. Every time I’m there, I look forward to the easy, light-hearted moments with coaches and members - the kind of genuine interactions that make the gym feel like a community, not just a place to exercise. I love my interactions with the knowledgeable coaching staff who pay close attention to my form and progress. I appreciate that they are always looking for ways to improve the members experiences!
Miles was so upbeat this morning! He gets us all stoked and motivated to hop in the pain cave and get er done!
Just dropped into town today and reached out to get info on working out while we’re in town. Got a quick response that made it very easy to get through the process of signing up. Went to a class the same day and they made us feel right at home, even hit a PR on box jumps with the coaches help. Definitely would recommend this gym.
Coach Miles is always so motivating and so intentional! He pays close attention to how I’m doing throughout the class, helping me scale each movement just right so I’m challenged but never overwhelmed. He pushes me in the best way by encouraging me to go a little further than I thought I could, without ever making me feel rushed or unsafe. Despite the intensity, he somehow makes every class super fun with his positive energy. I always leave feeling both challenged and excited to come back, energized by the supportive atmosphere he creates.
I dropped in for a class today. Miles coached and did a great job! I loved his demeanor and he was very helpful with tips on technique. He was also very attentive during the warmup and EMOM and gave me helpful feedback throughout. The entire staff was very welcoming and friendly and they had great rapport with their regular members. Great experience!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing gym experience! The coach is incredibly friendly, professional, and great at explaining every detail clearly. From the first day, I felt welcomed and comfortable—like part of the family already. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great guidance and a positive environment!
Coach Joe's hot
Harrison was a great coach. A great mix of walking through the proper form while also pushing each person to work hard. One of the best fitness classes I’ve been to.
Class was super fun and really knowledgable. They have a huge space in middle of downtown Charleston. Super convenient location and friendly people.
Great facility terrific team
Miles was great! The music was top notch and he even sang to us! What a gorgeous voice. His demonstrations were presented in a clear way and he even provided hands on adjustments and scaling options. Would take his class again!
After a 2yr hiatus from CrossFit, Miles knew just how to encourage me while keeping me at manageable level to avoid injury. It was still a killer workout even though my weights were lower.
We showed up as a group of 8 and had a fantastic time. Miles did a great job with instructions, progressions and keeping the class fun. We will definitely be back the next time we are in Charleston.
Miles was awesome. Showed me around and made me feel very welcome. The warm up was very effective and the coaching and encouragement during the workout was top notch. I really enjoyed my time!
miles was awesome. friendly welcoming explained everything g.
Miles was great! Helped me rethink some technique on my T2B! Thanks for letting me join your community for a day!
Great energy and good cool down. Lots of focus on pre and post routines. Thank you.
Explained the workout and movements well! Had good command of the class. Let us suffer through the workout without over coaching! Well done I would say!
Chloe was great! In a busy class she was still super personable and looked out for me!
Miles has this incredible charisma that draws people in, and his positivity is totally contagious. He’s an inspiration and a great reminder to focus on our own well being and personal growth.
Found my drop in spot for downtown Charleston. Coach Chloe was knowledgeable and friendly, brought great energy.
Gym has such a good friendly relaxed vibe! Coaching was on point, from the warmup through the wod, and then recovery. Everything was intentional not just canned “let’s meet at the board…3.2.1go” Will 10000% be back!
Miles was great today, very encouraging and knew his athletes’ limitations, good workout
Harrison was friendly and walked us through each of the exercises and build ups to the exercises. He gave feedback through the workout as well 😊
Loved it!
Very friendly space and welcoming. Programming was legit. In and out at the time described. Will come back
I don't work with a coach, however, that doesn't prevent Mike and his staff from answering my questions and offering suggestions. Staff and even members, are committed to your success.
Harrison was outstanding, got everyone motivated for a great workout.
Awesome workout and crew! The vibe was just at good as my gym back in Texas!
Chloe was very helpful and understanding of my limitations! 💙🩵💙
Miles is a great coach. He always has helpful tips about form
Amazing experience, always hard but super supportive atmosphere and a great place to have fun!
Miles was very welcoming to my daughter and me today for our drop in class at Holy City CrossFit. He explained everything so we were comfortable and ready when the workout started. He also helped me improve upon my clean and jerk with a couple easy cues. It was a really fun class.
Latasha is a great CrossFit coach. I’m new to CrossFit , about 5 or 6 weeks in I’m unfamiliar with the terminology and most of the various exercises. Latasha has given me much attention during our workouts and is quick to straighten out my form or get me with the right weight. A lot of encouragement from her and my fellow crossfitters. Fist bumps to you all.
Really grateful for HCCF. The coaches are very knowledgeable and have been able to help me scale the work outs to be challenging, but still work for me. The community has been encouraging and supportive. Although this is only my 2nd month, I feel excited for what’s to come and I’m so happy with my decision to join HCCF!
