DRS Athletics

We are a Navy family new to the area, so finding a home away from home was our top priority, and we found that and more at CrossFit DRS. From the moment we dropped in, we were warmly welcomed by Coach Rosario and Coach Cheryl with genuine love, care, and interest in our family's needs, not just in fitness but our overall well-being. Now, as members for over a year, DRS' programming is proven tried and true as my husband and I have both significantly grown in our fitness and in our friendships with the community too. DRS holds a special set of standards that encourages its members to move well and with purpose. The coaches are knowledgeable, well trained, and great role models of this and are always very encouraging to us members. Life will and has thrown some things at us that has caused us to readjust in how and what we can train, but the coaches at DRS have helped both my husband and me to accommodate our specific needs so that we can continue to be consistent. The equipment is well maintained, the facility is always clean and family friendly, with programs for everyone at any fitness level. We have nothing but love for this place and its people. CrossFit DRS Athletics is the gem of Huntington Beach.

The best gym I’ve ever belonged to. Rosario and her staff of coaches are amazing! They are welcoming, caring, and most of all excellent in their instruction. I walked in unable to do anything, and 10 months later I have gained so much fitness and strength. Beginner to advanced athletes will all benefit from working out at DRS. I highly recommend!

DRS Athletics is an amazing place. It literally has changed the lives of everyone in our family. My wife, three daughters, and I are all regulars.As noted by many other reviews, the programming is fantastic. We have gotten stronger and faster and leaner. There are two other aspects that I would like to highlight.First, zero injuries.The focus is always on quality over quantity. Recently, I was doing an overhead squat with a very low weight. I asked the coach if I should go up in weight. The answer was, ‘not yet,’ not until quality is higher.Second, the amazing culture.The DRS community is very positive. On a recent afternoon, two of our daughters were working with Coach Rosario while a cross fit class was going on. The entire gym was rocking with shouts of encouragement to the people lifting. Saturday morning classes are particularly popular and fun. On some days, I want to go to DRS just to see the people.Thank you Coach Rosario and all DRS coaches for making our family healthier, fitter, and happier.

Lead by an AMAZING coach (Rosario), DRS Athletics has an amazing supportive atmosphere filled with people willing to help and drive others to succeed! Develop Real Skills with this GREAT team!

This is a great gym with amazing coaches (Rosario and Jenna), an awesome facility and motivated members. I love coming here for a good workout and camaraderie. Come ready to workout hard and have a good time!

Really great - location is good.

I decided to try X-fit for the second time with my sister who is a regular member at DRS. I thought this would be a great enhancement to my regular workout routine of running, weight-lifting and swimming which I do regularly. However, after doing the cardio and weightlifting session for 2hrs with the regular members, I realized I wasn't as fit as I thought! Not only did DRS made me welcome as a drop-in, but also Coach Rosaria taught me something and made me humble. Great coaching in walking me through step-by-step in achieving the proper technique and reaching my goal. Thanks again!Cheers, Raul

Absolutely love this place! The training and the workouts are fun, safe, and challenging. Coach Rosario and Coach Sheryl are amazing and they always make me feel comfortable and welcomed!! I always look forward to the next training/workout. Thank you!!!!

I started at DRS over a year ago! Best decision ever! They make sure you understand every move and give alternatives if you need them.I’ve also been to a couple of the Krav seminars that they have! Very well run! You can tell Coach Rosario has studied her craft for a long time, has a passion for teaching, and wants to help everyone own their personal safety. It is a safe and fun environment to learn an important skill.
