Riptide CrossFit

I have been doing CrossFit for six years and have been a member at various gyms in different states.In less than a year, I have become an active member at Riptide and am partaking in personal training to improve my weightlifting. I have seen immense growth in my form, performance and fitness within the short amount of time. I fully attribute those results to the individualized care and attention given by the coaches.Riptide’s focus is not solely on fitness but also on the longevity and wellbeing of its athletes. Each coach takes the time to get to know everyone who sets foot in the door, whether they are a regular member or simply dropping in. They are constantly looking to provide new and innovative programs to help their members achieve their goals.Lastly, they prioritize creating a familial environment. The camaraderie shown in every class is one not easily found.If you are interested in a long term gym, look no further. Riptide offers the whole package.

I visited Fort Lauderdale during a business trip from Geneva, Switzerland. I dropped-in Riptide CrossFit for my usual morning WOD. I was very impressed by the box spirit. I felt very welcomed by Santiago about 5 seconds after I set foot into the box. I highly recommend anyone who visit Ft Lauderdale to go there for CrossFit. Thanks again Santiago for your spirit! Take care!

Wife and I went for a workout this morning at the 6:30 class. Santiago was our coach today. He was fantastic. The class was great. The other members were great to workout with! I would, without a second thought return for drop ins when in town!

Being completely new to Fort Lauderdale - and fairly new to CrossFit - I was nervous and slightly intimidated when searching for a box in the area. I did my research and visited just about every gym I could before finding Riptide. During my trial week here I knew immediately that this was the place for me. Santi and everyone at the gym instantly made me feel welcome and were incredibly helpful with both getting me used to the gym and the area. The group of people who go here is incredibly diverse, with individuals of all fitness and experience levels – so you never feel out of place. This adds to the sense of inclusion here, and Santi and team are always willing to provide modifications and extra help to make you feel comfortable and assist you in reaching your goals. I would definitely recommend Riptide to any visitors or those looking for a gym, whether they be experienced or new to CrossFit. Come check it out!

I dropped in to riptide while on vacation back in November and had a great experience. Santiago was immediately super welcoming and thorough. Even though I’ve been crossfitting for years, he still had new tips to offer to better my lift, which I really appreciated. He was engaged the entire class, working closely with everyone, and I could tell he genuinely cares about helping the members improve. I would recommend this gym to drop ins and local crossfitters looking to get more of out their wods.

Was in town for the day and had no motivation to utilize the hotel gym. I am new, but active in CrossFit back home so did a quick search for a local box. The owner, Santi, replied back and welcomed me into his community for the evening workout. The space was open and inviting and the membership was strong and helpful. I felt very comfortable and was treated no different than one of the regulars. The workout was inclusive, manageable, and scalable for people of any level of fitness. I got in a great and well rounded workout and met some great folks at the same time.

My wife and I joined riptide cross after our recent move to Fort Lauderdale. I was initially nervous to start and honestly somewhat intimidate because of my perseption of how difficult crossfit was. But from day one i felt welcomed and fit right in. Santiago and all of his coaches are amazing at pushing each member based on their skill level and emphasizing techniques to help you improve. They preach a healthy lifestyle and put in the extra time to teach about nutrition and making healthy choices as well. No matter what your skill or fitness level is to start, Riptide Crossfit will be a perfect fit.

We dropped into Riptide this afternoon and even though we were running 10 minutes behind, we were happily welcomed and greeted by the whole class. Everyone at this gym is so kind and friendly and Santiago is a great coach. He’s extremely attentive to his members and very professional. This is definitely our box away from home when we visit FL!!

I dropped in to Riptide and loved it! The owner, Santi, was coaching, and he did a great job of making sure I had done CrossFit and knew what I was doing. He introduced me and the other visitor to the class so we felt welcome and offered great feedback on my snatch. The class had a pretty wide range of fitness and experience, and he was able to speak to everyone (in English and Spanish!). Will definitely go back next time I'm in Miami.

It really feels like home. So welcoming and accommodating to what level of fitness you are at. Amazing coach!! So knowledgeable. Motivates you to try everything and teaches you the skill to do it. I have accomplished more in my 6 months with Riptide than I have in 30 years anywhere else. Member for life!
