Training with Elisa has been awesome. She’s super encouraging, knows her stuff, and always finds the perfect balance between pushing you and keeping things fun. She explains movements clearly, helps fix your form without making you feel awkward, and brings great energy to every workout. I’ve gotten stronger and more confident since working with her, and I actually look forward to class because she makes it a good time. If you’re thinking about trying CrossFit or just want a coach who genuinely cares, Elisa is the one. Highly recommend!

It was my day 1 at Leander CrossFit, and Mike was very welcoming and motivating from the start. He took the time to watch my form closely and corrected my technique on the behind-the-neck split jerk, guiding me through each movement with clear, practical tips. His encouragement made me feel confident and eager to improve, turning what could have been an intimidating first session into a positive, energizing experience. The gym itself had a great atmosphere - focused but friendly - which helped me feel right at home.

Leave the coffee at home, Coach Elissa brings the energy to everyone in the gym! She starts each session with a warm welcome that immediately lifts the mood and keeps it high throughout the workout. Elissa pays close attention to each person’s form during exercises like squats and kettlebell swings, offering encouragement and helpful adjustments that make a real difference. I left feeling energized and motivated, like I’d pushed my limits but in a way that was totally doable. That kind of energy and care makes Leander CrossFit stand out from other gyms I’ve tried. It’s clear Elissa’s enthusiasm isn’t just for show - it actually helps you perform better and enjoy every minute.

The warm-up was thorough, well designed to prepare us for the workout ahead by gradually increasing our heart rate and loosening up key muscle groups. Evan always watches for form and wellness, closely observing anyone who might be struggling and stepping in to offer adjustments or encouragement. He makes sure we maintain proper technique to avoid injury and maximize effectiveness. His attentiveness creates a motivating atmosphere at Leander CrossFit where you feel supported but challenged at the same time. 5 stars!

★★★★★ Michelle is an absolute *delight*—if your idea of delight is being screamed at by a human megaphone who thinks “rest” is a four-letter word. Five stars, obviously, because nothing says “personal growth” like sobbing through burpees while she chirps, “Pain is just weakness leaving the body… or maybe you’re dying, who knows!” Her programming is a chaotic fever dream of muscle-ups, wall balls, and whatever sadistic implement she found in the lost-and-found. I came for fitness; I left with a PhD in random nonsense: did you know pineapples are berries, but strawberries aren’t? Or that octopuses have three hearts and zero chill? She drops these “fun facts” mid-WOD like intellectual grenades while you’re inverted on the rings. Thanks to her, I’m now 1% fitter, 99% traumatized, and 100% convinced she runs on pre-workout and spite. Sign up. You’ll hate it. You’ll love it. You’ll never walk normally again.

El Cucuy ★★★★★ ¡Órale, Coach Cucuy is the absolute *rey del box*! I joined his CrossFit class thinking I’d just get swole, but this vato turned me into a burpee-blasting, kettlebell-swinging *máquina*... and somehow a housekeeping ninja too? Every WOD he yells “¡Vámonos, no seas flojo!” while blasting Vicente Fernández louder than my tía’s novela. One day mid-AMRAP he drops this gem: “¿Sabías que vinegar and baking soda clean better than your abuela’s chancla after a party?” Next thing I know, I’m PR’ing my clean-and-jerk AND scrubbing my shower like a *chido* Cinderella. He once made us do wall balls with a twist: miss the target, learn a fact. I ate 47 reps and now know that dryer sheets repel mosquitos better than OFF! and that lemon rinds in the garbage disposal make your kitchen smell like a taquería in heaven. Coach cucuy doesn’t just coach—he *curates chaos*. My glutes are crying, my lungs are doing the Macarena, and my house has never been cleaner. If CrossFit had a Michelin star for “Most Likely to Make You Laugh Until You Drop the Bar,” he’d have *cinco estrellas, cabrón*. ¡Sign up or I’ll make you do burpees with a mop!

She will give me the perfect queues during my workout when she knows I can do better. It's hard to beat that kind of coaching. Elissa knows how to push me right up to my limits while keeping my form safe, effective, and fun. (Yes, ending my workout on the floor can be fun!).

I’ve been training with him for almost two years, and I’ve seen a huge difference in both my fitness and my confidence. Jim genuinely cares about his athletes and knows how to push us in the best way. Highly recommend him if you want to improve and have fun doing it!

I think he does a great job. Manages the time effectively and does well at managing the large classes. Only negative I would say is, I don’t like being corrected/critiqued mid-lift. Would rather finish my lift first, but that is pretty minimal and could just be unique to my preferences. Overall, he’s a good coach.

Michael always verbally explains movements well, so I can understand. Along with showing the movement of course. Whenever he shows the "do not do this" movement it's always helpful because let's be honest, I do those things. Love the reminders before the work starts to make sure you DO certain things SO YOU DON'T HURT YOURSELF. I love them even more when I'm in the middle of the WOD because I sometimes get sucked into just getting the rep in the allotted time instead of focusing on my quality. Crossfit is a dangerous sport; and you can't make/keep gains if you're out of the game. Lastly, Michael is very approachable whenever I have questions. And the man seems to always be cheerful with a sincere "nice work" when the workout is done, love it. Always a good day for me when Michael is coaching.
