Fantastic, spacious gym with dedicated coaches and a great community of athletes who are always encouraging. Tons of classes every day so you can catch a workout regardless of your schedule. I went from 15 years on the couch to regular workouts with far greater ease than I ever could have guessed, and I credit the people just as much as the CrossFit system. Thanks, Roots!

Visited Boulder, CO for a business trip and looked for a local CrossFit. I am so glad I found Roots! From the moment I walked in the door I was welcomed by the staff and other CrossFitters. Roots truly represents all that is great about CrossFit and the CrossFit community. Their coaching was over the top amazing, the coaches spend time with each person throughout the workout to ensure everyone has a chance to improve.Special thanks to Nicole, Connor and OC for being so welcoming.

Ive been a member at Roots for over 5 years now and all I can say is Nicole and Eric run a wonderful box and community. The coaching staff are all highly qualified and great at what they do. They prioritize safety and are clearly passionate about the member experience. I highly recommend CrossFit Roots to anyone interested in prioritizing health and joining a welcoming community.

Ive been a sports massage therapist in boulder since 2006. I used to think CrossFit was a place to do poor heavy movements fast that led to injuries. Boy was I wrong. I learned so much about my own body, proper lifting technique and when to scale back. It made me a better bodyworker 10x over. The level of coaching at this gym is unbelievable. Its worth every cent you invest. Not only that, the community is very strong. From someone who really needed a pick me up when i joined, this place checks all the boxes. You wont regret it. -Josh

Great coaching staff, member community and facility. The programming won’t disappoint. Strongly recommend.

Absolute top tier coaching in a fantastic facility with an amazing community. This is the place.

Crushed my soul and made me question my reason for continuing to live, but in a good way.

Very nice box and super friendly coach and team

Huge, open space with lots of crossfit toys to play with. Owner Nicole was so knowledgeable, friendly and always available for questions. You will get fitter here!

Some of the most genuine and hard working people you will come across. The coaches are knowledgeable and caring. The views from the gym are incredible. You will find competitive athleticism here but you will also find a group of people who really care about making sure you progress. If you come in with motivation and an open mindset, you will grow here, and be amazed at just how much you do.Stopped training here after I graduated and moved and miss it all the time. Thankfully I learned a lot of things about fitness that will help me for life. My only regret is not trying out more of the classes and coaches!

Ive been a member at CrossFit Roots for about 4 years. Ive traveled near and far and dropped in at many other gyms. From what Ive seen, this gym has the highest standards, the best coaching staff, and the friendliest atmosphere around. The owner, Nicole, has the highest CrossFit coaching credential that is offered by CrossFit HQ. Coming to classes, I notice a couple of things: each persons form is critiqued through out the class, new and mature level athletes receive the same amount of individualized coaching, every movement is scaled down to the appropriate level, whether it be the weight of the bar or range of motion. In addition to regular CrossFit classes, roots offers an Olympic weightlifting club which is phenomenal. Ryan is an amazing coach and a very experienced weightlifter.When I first walked into roots I couldnt do a single air squat, I was 19years old and the unhealthiest I have ever been... Roots helped me find my inner athlete and take control of my body. In addition to fitness, they help members dial in their nutrition. Im trying to express in words how amazing this gym is but I think Id be typing all day. Ive made the best friends, the best mentors, and the best memories at Roots. Its the best. A good CrossFit gym should be judged on the quality of coaching and people, not the facility and equipment... Although Roots has all those things, what matters is what lies in the hearts of the coaches.

The best coaching at any box anywhere! They dont just send you to climb ropes in a workout... They will teach you how to do every movement and scale movements that are out of your reach. The coaches are so friendly and helpful. If you want to get good at CrossFit and not get injured, you need to come here. They have an incredible Olympic lifting program too.

Dropped into CrossFit Roots today. Im a frequent traveler and love to find great CrossFit gyms to visit when Im on the road. This is one of the best ones that Ive been to. The facility is big and easy to find. Every member was nice but focused on doing the work. The coach was excellent at working us through the exercises and explaining the scaling options. They even answered the phone when I called about scheduling a class to drop into. There isnt any place on their website for a non-member to reserve a spot in class but you can register online and send a message to tell them when you want to show up.

Can’t wait to get back to CrossFit Roots. Everything about the box is exceptional; coaching, class offerings and the facility. Professionally Roots aims for the highest standards. Can’t leave out the caring community they have created and nurtured.

When I moved to Boulder, I went to Roots before I even bought a bed on recommendation on a two people I met in CA. Best decision ever. The community is wonderful. We have a great time and Im stronger than ever. Roots is one main reason we may never leave Boulder.

I came to Roots in January as a total beginner, and Shane and Eric made me feel welcome. I was never the best in any of the classes but was always pushed to lift heavier, and saw rapid improvement in my body and strength. I hope that as I recover I will be able to return to Roots, and for the four months I was there, it felt like home. The facility was clean, and most of the people were very friendly. As soon as I am in remission Ill be back.

My boyfriend and I just completed the foundations course with Shane. It was an awesome experience! Shane was hands-down the best coach we could have asked for. He made sure we got the most out of our time and money by thoroughly explaining and demonstrating each of the core movements, and made us really aware of how we were moving our bodies. Not only did Shane challenge us mentally and physically, but we also shared a lot of laughs. I definitely recommend signing up for this course if youre new to cross-fit. Youll learn a lot with the coaches, and even though youre going to get a good sweat in, youll either be smiling or laughing every time you walk in/ out of Crossfit Roots. Its a great program lead by the friendliest people.Thanks, Shane!Best,Lauren and Jason

I have been to many gyms around the country and CrossFit Roots has, hands down, the best CrossFit coaching you can find. The staff is committed to furthering their craft and becoming the best they can be, as evidenced by the number of Level 3 and Level 4 CrossFit Trainers and the gyms internal professional development. Roots has 5 out of the 75 Level 3s and 1 out of the 6 Level 4s in the state of Colorado. The coaches also are committed to developing and including athletes of all levels, so whether you are on a competitive level, are new to athletics, are a teen, a senior, or anything in between, you will be supported and welcomed at Roots.(Disclosure: I am related to the owners.)

I trained at CF Roots while in Boulder for work, and the experience was fantastic. I would I could make this my everyday gym! The staff was accommodating, and the members were very welcoming. If you need a place to sweat while in town, this is it!

Great staff and a great members. The workouts are tough but the staff makes them scalable for anyone. They focus technique and helping you get fit for life

I started at Roots about 6 months ago and have had the best experience. The coaches have been so helpful and informative as I am learning more about Crossfit and the movements. Each workout can be scaled to my specifics needs while being challenging and fun! I would say the best aspect of this gym though is the community. They have worked hard to create an environment where everyone is supportive of each other, friendly and very welcoming!

7 years and counting!! I joined the gym 5 months after my first baby was born in 2009. I found the gym to be supportive and safe. The coaches are amazing. Every day I get the support for I need. This is not a one-size fits all gym. But its an inclusive place for anyone in any phase of their life. No doubt this is the best Crossfit Box in Boulder.

Incredible Box! Great coaching and kind patrons made me feel welcome immediately! Could not recommend a box more highly.

Come for a workout, a change of lifestyle, and a better you. Stay for the close community, friendships, and world class coaches. Crossfit roots is the gym for you. For support at all levels of fitness, for the drive to stay healthy. I moved to boulder from Phoenix and when I tried this gym on day 1 I knew it was my new home for fitness. Youll only need one class to fall in love.

Started coming here to rehabilitate my knee after an ACL surgery in 2016.. needless to say Im still going to roots! Great community and awesome coaches that really work one on one with you, thanks guys!

Crossfit Roots is the most impressive training facility I have come across. Having run the gamut of fitness options in Boulder- triathlons, trail races, various exercise classes, and yoga, to name a few.....my year and a half at Roots has changed my perception of functional fitness and my fitness level forever. Nicole and Eric have struck the perfect balance of absolute professionalism and fun- their coaches are highly trained in movement, nutrition, and injury prevention, and there is a work hard, play hard community attitude that is extremely compelling. In addition, Roots offers many other in-house options, including physical therapy, body work, personal training, and nutritional counseling. Everyone, from the hard core endurance athlete to the never-liked-exercise newbie, can benefit from what Roots has to offer! I cant recommend it highly enough.

I have been a member of Crossfit Roots for 2 years moving upon moving to Boulder. Since the moment I walked into the doors the Community, and Coaches are amazing. The coaching staff are the best in the Industry being mostly Level 3 and 4 Certified. The have the ability to pull out the best from their Athletes while keeping them safe. The owners Nicole and Eric constantly are upgraded the facility and adding new equipment. The community is best people and where i made all my friends. This is the BEST CROSSFIT BOX EVER.

I have worked out at several different boxes and through my travels I have dropped in to several around the world. Nothing compares to the detailed oriented coaching! Tweaking my technique and helping me break through different barriers. The athletes vary in size, shape, age, and degree of intensity! No matter where you are on your path to healthier this community is welcoming, friendly, supportive, and encouraging! The class sizes are kept small to ensure every gets the coaching necessary to improve and make progress while being safe! I am not easily impressed and very skeptical but the staff go out of their way to make you feel a part of the community from day one. If you are looking for a new place or just dropping in, this is the place to be welcomed with open arms, friendly smiles, hard WODs, and the most outstanding coaching I have experienced. Its worth a look if you are looking for something outstanding.

Ive visited over 20 other CrossFit gyms and Roots has THE BEST coaching of any gym Ive ever been to. The coaches at Roots arent just there to put you through a WOD; they are there because they are genuinely committed to creating positive change in their members lives.CrossFit Roots has provided me with a space in my life where Im able to achieve things that are otherwise, seemingly impossible. Generally, CrossFit has made a tremendous impact on my life, but I know that the improvements Ive experienced are only possible because of the unparalleled coaching and warm and inviting community.

This is the only CF gym I have ever worked out in, so I do not intend to compare to other gyms. I have been a member at Roots for 8 months. I feel that every single coach at this gym is top notch. Instruction is on point, every class. Equipment is excellent. Membership terms are reasonably flexible. Members are friendly and atmosphere is not intimidating. I have made friendships with members outside of the gym.One thing that really stands out for me, is the care, instruction and follow-up after I experienced chronic pain. My situation was evaluated by a qualified Roots staff member, essentially in a physical therapy session. A rehabilitation plan, which included stretching, massage, specific exercises (alongside WODs) was provided to me. After discussing this issue with a coach, this information and the thought of its cause was shared with all of the other coaches, which resulted in each coach checking in with me to provide personal caution regarding movements that could exacerbate my situation and/or to provide scaling options while I was in class. I found this to truly be 5-star attention.To be honest, I was skeptical that all this would correct my situation. After following the plan, I am super happy to report that I believe the origin of my pain was correctly identified, and that the rehab plan was effective. Months later, and I am now back to CrossFit at Roots as aggressively as I wish to be, and pain free. Meanwhile, coaches still check in with me specifically to see how Im feeling.Thanks Roots, I couldnt ask for more! And heres to a healthier me!!!

What a great gym! Its got it all - great facilities, equipment, and most importantly great trainers. The classes are limited to 12 so trainers can focus on the athletes. There is definitely a family vibe at roots and the experience is highly recommended.Only bad thing I have to say is damn, they are some awful DJs. Dont expect to listen to any pump-up music when you are here... Hopefully they read this and get on it =)

The coaching at Roots is fantastic. All coaches are extremely knowledgable, and make sure each member is using proper form and technique. Coaches cater workouts to suit anyones fitness level and/or any injury. The community fostered by Roots is welcoming, friendly and awesome, too.

Not open or friendly to outside travelers. Posted open gym hours online and I drove all the way to their gym (they cant return an email until after I already got there and was treated poorly) only to be told I wouldnt be allowed to workout in their open gym. Definitely would not recommend coming here. Not true to the crossfit community mantra at all!!!!

Dropped in visiting bc Id heard good things about Roots from 2 people at my box all the way back in VA (Crossfit West Springfield! Shout out!). Roots is a clean, orderly, well equipped box, and the people (5:30am crew!) were stellar. I was warmly welcomed and the movement corrections Shane offered me were consistent with my normal coach, who is excellent. I look forward to coming back!

If youre looking for a Box that will work with you to move correctly before you move heavy (and get injured), then this is the place. Excellent instructors and great community for both new and experienced athletes.

Very welcoming, inviting community, knowledgable coaches, awesome and clean facility, fun programming.

Great facility. Fantastic coaches. Class sizes non larger than 12.

Love this box! Great coaching, friendly community and excellent facility.

Beautiful gym with awesome owners and staff. Great coaching.

I went through CFL1 and recently CFL2 at this location. I have very high standards and am self diagnosed OCD when it comes to certain things. This Affiliate never dissapoints. It is always extremely clean and well organized. Ive been into other boxes that have been open 1/4 of the time as ROOTS and arent even half as clean or organized. Staff I have met (Nicole/Cody) were always extremely friendly and welcoming. Great facility, great staff, and from what I have seen and heard from others, definitely a good choice if you are looking to join the CF community with a group that really cares.

10 out of 10 for everything! Bring your own water bottle b/c there arent any gross fountains.

Organized, well run WODsWODs are not overcrowded so always expert, individual attentionExperienced, well trained, thoughtful coaches that understand cues for one may not work for anotherSupportive and encouraging atmosphere!

Roots is the best gym Ive ever encountered, CrossFit or otherwise! The coaches are exceptionally well trained and their programming focuses on movement quality over quantity which not only prevents injury but also helps even experienced weightlifters and gymnasts improve their technique. The equipment is in great shape and updated on a regular basis. The coaches care about each and every athlete who walks in the door and they take the time to get to know you as a person as well as your strengths and weaknesses as an athlete so they can help you achieve your fitness goals. Nicole puts a lot of effort into creating a sense of community and making sure the atmosphere at Roots is supportive rather than competitive. My very first day in an actual WOD class, I had 3 strangers sit down next to me and cheer me on as I finished a seemingly neverending set of wallballs. If youre looking for a great facility that provides excellent coaching, moral support and personalized training, Roots is for you!

My wife and I have participated in CrossFit since 2007. We have visited boxes all across the country and paid drop in fees or been invited to join a workout at no cost. This week at CrossFit roots after participating in a multi-day gymnastics seminar coached by Shane my wife was invited by her classmates to participate in the daily wod. When she attempted to walk into the group coach Shane asked her what are you doing. My wife made her wishes known and was coolly informed she is not a member of that box and may not participate. Even when another athlete offered immediately to invite my wife as her guest coach Shane remained adamant that joining the wod was for some reason against the rules.This is a disappointing experience to have at such a well-established box. CrossFit Roots is known to be the home of several well-known CrossFit athletes, good coaching and unfortunately also a somewhat callous management. If you are looking to join a box in Boulder I cannot recommend CrossFit roots.

Without a doubt THE BOX IN BOULDER!!! When you go to a workout at ROOTS you get to the root of exercise, the root of the movement, the root of the workout, the root of proper form, the root of a great coaching experience, the root of friendship, the root of support and the root of community. It really is all about finding your base at Roots.The coaches are phenomenal. They want you there, 100% present engaged and focused on the WOD but they also want you there for the next WOD and the next and the WOD 10 years from now. They are committed to helping you with form, functionality, movement standards and most importantly keeping you safe and healthy so you can keep crossfitting for years. Crossfit has a reputation to go hard and dont stop but not at Roots, you can go as hard as you want - if you are safe! The coaches are potently skilled at watching you and offering corrections - and aghast!! - will tell you take down weight, even use a PVC pipe if the weight is to much.That is why I keep coming back - I trust my coaches inherently and completely. And I love that they keep wanting to better themselves.They all keep testing levels up! No stopping them.The community is truly one of a kind - being a Root is something special. You make friendships that last - maybe because you see each other in such stages of disrepair that it makes friendships easy. All athletes hold each other in the highest respect. They always cheer each other on and help pick up after the WOD. And Roots has lots of social events that allow you to see each other not in workout gear. So many times Ive dragged myself to a WOD against my will because I know when I get there Ill see friendly supportive faces.The facility is exactly what a box should be. All the right equipment for any WOD you need or to explore any crossfit exercise during open shop. No frills - a shower and bathrooms, changing rooms and cubbies to store clothes. It is just perfect for what a true Root needs. Nothing fancy as our focus is on the workout.Classes!!! oh hell yeah - Roots offers teen classes, over 55 classes, endurance classes, oly classes, track WODs, - really any thing that you crave, Roots will meet and surpass your desires.Really - you have got to give Roots a try. I mean where else can you do GHD sit ups while looking at the world famous Flatirons.

Jacksons Honest viewing party.

One of the best Ive been to .

Best coaching staff and great facility and programming.

As someone attending the gym next door, their stealing of our parking spaces is very frustrating and got to the point where we had to put chairs in the parking spots to keep them out. They coaches are egotistical, and dont care for the safety of their people.
