I started at CrossFit Speakeasy in May of 2023 with zero CrossFit experience and honestly didn’t know what to expect. From day one, the coaching staff has been beyond supportive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in my progress.In less than three years, I’ve dramatically increased my strength and endurance, but more importantly, I’ve developed a stronger mindset and confidence that carries over into every area of my life. The programming is intentional, challenging, and designed to help you improve safely and consistently.At 43 years old, I can confidently say I’m in the best shape of my life. The variety of class times makes it easy to stay consistent no matter how busy life gets.If you’re serious about becoming a better version of yourself—physically and mentally—I highly recommend CrossFit Speakeasy. It’s more than a gym, it’s a community.

I’ve been a member since 2023 with absolutely no prior CrossFit experience, and walking through those doors was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The coaches have been incredibly supportive every step of the way, meeting me where I was and helping guide me to where I am today. Their knowledge, patience, and encouragement make all the difference.What really sets Speakeasy apart is the community. The atmosphere is welcoming, motivating, and genuinely fun. I’ve made so many great friends since joining, and it truly feels like a second home.I even recently joined the coaching team, and I couldn’t be more proud to be part of such a professional, caring, and dedicated group. It’s amazing to now help others start their journey the same way I did.I cannot recommend Speakeasy enough to anyone considering trying CrossFit. You are never too young or too old to start your Speakeasy journey — just take that first step. You won’t regret it! 💪

Not only the best gym, but also the best community! The owner truly cares about his members and plays an active part in growth and development. I have gotten so much stronger at Speakeasy while always feeling like the workout can be adjusted to fit my goals.

I live in Ocean Township and had been looking for a CrossFit gym nearby that was welcoming but still serious about coaching and results. CrossFit Speakeasy in Belmar has exceeded every expectation.The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and take the time to make sure you understand every movement, whether you’re brand new or experienced. They scale workouts appropriately and genuinely care about your progress. The community is supportive without being over the top, and everyone is there to work hard and get better.The facility is clean, well equipped, and professionally run. This isn’t just a typical gym, it’s a place where people take pride in showing up and improving.If you’re in Ocean Township, Belmar, or the surrounding Jersey Shore area and looking for a CrossFit gym with great coaching and a strong community, I highly recommend CrossFit Speakeasy.

Joining CrossFit Speakeasy was one of the best decisions I made. The coaching, community and programming here is top notch. All of the coaches and members truly care about you, support you and want to see you crush your goals. You are met exactly where you are at on your fitness journey so you never feel overwhelmed or intimidated coming in. I joined as a member in 2022 and felt honored to become part of the coaching staff to help support others on there fitness & nutrition journey. Grateful to be a part of Speakeasy.

CrossFit Speakeasy has completely changed my perspective on fitness. I was so nervous to start CrossFit my boyfriend had been trying to convince me for a long time, but I felt intimidated and honestly didn’t think I was ready. From the moment I walked into Speakeasy, all of that disappeared.The coaches and members welcomed me immediately and met me exactly where I was at. I never once felt judged, pressured, or out of place. Every workout is scalable, every question is encouraged, and every win no matter how small is celebrated.This is hands down the most encouraging, supportive gym environment I’ve ever been a part of. Since joining, I’ve hit personal goals I never thought I would, both physically and mentally. I actually look forward to going every day, which is something I never thought I’d say about a gym.If you’re feeling intimidated or unsure like I was, this is your sign. CrossFit Speakeasy will support you, challenge you, and make you feel confident every step of the way.

Crossfit Speakeasy is the first Crossfit gym I’ve been a part of and I’ve been a member for a little over two years. Looking back on the past few years, I’ve come a long way with learning Olympic lifts like snatches and cleans to being able to do toes-to-bar etc.I’m easily in the best shape of my life. My strength and endurance gains have been noticeable and because of CF Speakeasy, I felt confident enough to run a half marathon which is something I never would have imagined when I started.I want to sincerely thank Rob, along with all of the coaches, for everything they’ve done for me. Their coaching, support, and encouragement made all the difference and created an environment where progress felt achievable.I’m truly happy I joined this gym and I’m looking forward to continue making progress in CrossFit. I’ll always be grateful for the friendships and foundation I built here.

Great box for a drop in. Strong programming, some of the best coaching I’ve experienced and a really friendly crew.

I’ve been a member at Speakeasy for close to 10 years. I started without any working out/crossfit experience and can honestly say that joining has been one of the greatest decisions I’ve ever made. I constantly amaze myself with the progress I’ve made and how strong I’ve become, especially having two babies. The coaching staff is excellent and welcoming. My kids now attend their Speakeasy Starter program and are building a love of exercise at a young age. I have made some of my best friends at this Gym and it is truly a place I look forward to coming to every day. 😊

I wish I would’ve started sooner!I joined a little over a year ago.. At first I was so intimidated by what CrossFit looked like. The coaches at Speakeasy truly care about you as a person. I leave class feeling strong and happy, every single time..Their patience, coaching skills, knowledge and 100% support empowers even a scaled athlete.They have helped me grow, taught me patience and shown me that persistence pays off..Technique, form, overall safety and comfort is their main priority.Their support and guidance makes you want to keep coming back. They push me just enough to show me I am capable.The coaches are amazing and some of the best people around. They check in on you all the time and make sure you feel safe and strong with the workout. Their love for working out rubs off and that is why I believe the gym has a family vibe.The gym has a very supportive community.The owner Rob is very professional and knowledgeable, he has helped me achieve things I never thought I could do.His love and passion for being healthy is contagious. I don’t ever see me going back to a regular gym..My 13 year old son takes private lessons with the owner Rob, he’s learning from an early age how being healthy and fit, shows discipline for when he gets older. He is patient, communicates well and encourages him every single time..I recommended this gym to everyone.Every single coach brings a special vibe to the workout. They have a huge smile everyday. Gym is clean and friendlyI never imagined that being the last one to finish the workout would get the loudest clap.Their gear is great, and they offer healthy options in their fridges.Beyond amazing community.
