Great gym and awesome coaches. I highly recommend if you are in the city.

It took leaving DC and looking for a new gym to know how good I had it at Balance. The coaches are fantastic, the price is one of the best in DC, and if the sense of community doesnt motivate you to get to the gym and improve yourself, nothing will. Yes, the classes can be a bit crowded but Ive never been turned away, the coaches always know how to make it work. And yes, all these people mean the equipment is not the most immaculate. Ultimately, though, youre there to get a workout, get stronger, and to be a part of a supportive community thatll help you get there. Youll get all the above here and more.

I had the pleasure of working out here for a month while in DC. Its a really great gym, lots of good coaching and they pay attention to everyone to help everyone get better. The programming was well done and thoughtful. I think its representative of the culture of the gym that even though the 715 am class was sometimes crowded everyone worked it out together and there were never any bad attitudes. I will definitely drop in if I am back in the area.

Great gym with incredible coaches. I was in DC for a summer internship and regularly attended the evening classes for the 12 weeks I was here. The community was great, the workouts were challenging, and I learned a lot from the coaches. There was a wide range of Crossfit experience in the classes, making it easy to fit in. They also offered me the best rate for summer interns that I could find in the area (and the membership was unlimited!) I strongly recommend checking this gym out and I hope that I can come back to visit sometime!

Nice box. Met some nice members and a cool coach. Surprised by the air conditioning and the lack of a rack. I would visit again. Its not a must stop but if youre in the area and looking for a WOD, stop in.

So many options for all fitness levels and interests. I dont use the crossfit box but I have heard only good things. Great space on the top floor for stretching and floor movements. Ive also rarely seen it so crowded that I couldnt get a workout in.

Best place to work out! Crossfit is the best. Great staff and facility.

The coaches are fantastic about critiquing form and helping people to improve toward their fitness goals. The community is very welcoming, and Im particularly fond of the 6:15am weekday class, which has a great group of attendees each day and tends to be pretty gender-balanced--a rarity at a crossfit gym.

A little pricey, great personal trainers and facilities plus Aubrys spin classes are awesome

Ive worked out two times now at Crossfit Balance and have visited all of their 3 locations, which include Thomas Circle (just worked out during free time and not a Crossfit class), Foggy Bottom (free time-Did a WOD of my own), and Glover Park, which is my personal favorite (worked out twice with a Crossfit class). Both times were amazing.Kudos to Danielle, who brings it as a coach. You can tell she doesnt just coach people, she lives it, and her energy is contagious. Sort of like, if Im learning how to shoot, I want to go to a known marksman. Danielle, it is obvious, can probably outwork anybody in the gym most days. More than that, this Crossfit box seems to understand proper technique and injury recovery over just going Rx on a WOD.Thats important. In a nutshell, my observations on the gym spaces-1) Glover Park - not near a metro, so you hve to drive, but. If pluses are the space. Bottom floor is for Crossfit WODS, but the 2nd floor has enough space and equipment for your own WOD and mobility exercises. Also, you get two hours of free parking in the parking garage - a major perk.2). Thomas Circle - probably has the most space for working out, but, seemed a bit more broken up with smaller workout areas. That being said, I couldnt try out the 1st floor Crossfit area, which looked pretty nice. Near metro.3). Foggy Bottom - by far, the nicest, with a salt water pool and very nice showers and programmable lockers. Near metro.I wrote a book, but there you are.

Has a lot of specialty equipment, but falls short in the basics.

Absolutely cant beat all the available classes, and equipment for the price. Especially for DC.

Good classes and staff

Just joined this a few weeks ago. Staff is friendly, lots of options.

Great gym
