I love Keith and i am glad he pushes us because i would totally give up and sit down when i’m too tired if it weren’t for keith pushing me, oh and also what about offering a free protein shake for those who complete the Rx just a thought for a little extra motivation? They have good protein shakes.
Keith pushes me like no other—he’s truly the best coach! I love attending his classes because I know I’ll be challenged every time. He not only pushes me to improve but also ensures my form is always on point. Highly recommend!
This is my second class with Coach Anthony and I like his coaching style. He demonstrates the movements and is encouraging along the way. I’m easing back into to this and all the coaches are supportive and let me find my grove. When the time is right I’ll take some more motivation. Thank you!!
I joined Blue Titan almost 4 years ago when I started my semi-retired life. I was a bit tentative being an older athlete, however the coaches were very easy to approach and the atmosphere in the gym was very supportive. This made it easy to want to work out several days a week. Before I knew it the coaches new every one of my weaknesses and abilities. They are always ready to help me scale a move to something I am capable of doing .
Over these past 4 years the coaches have helped me improve my life, health, strength and endurance. I now feel more physically fit then I have in decades. What they are teaching you, at any age, will improve your skills and strength.
I have found this to be a truly unique experience at Blue Titan, the coaches know every athlete and how to be safe but also motive each person. You get to know the other athletes and it’s easy to workout several times aI week as others help to motivate you at each workout. Kind of hard to imagine but I look forward to working out, and if I don’t make it to the gym, I feel like I missed something. It really is a great place to become CrossFit strong.
Blue Titan is one of the best gyms in the area. The community at Blue Titan is more like family and the instructors! are top notch. No matter your experience or level of fitness they are always eager to help and modify movements so you are successful in your fitness journey
I have only positive things to say about my experience with the one-on-one foundations classes. Dylan was a great instructor and spent a lot of time making sure I understood all of the movements so that I could exercise safely and effectively. He was very patient and answered all of my questions. I will feel a lot more confident coming into CrossFit classes now!!
Blue Titan has made ALL the difference for me on my fitness journey. Between their CrossFit classes and their coaching program, I am a better, fitter, stronger and happier version of myself than I was a year ago. The coaches and staff really care about each person and their progress. Each of the other members are so supportive and welcoming - there is nothing to be intimidated by! Highly recommend you sign up for a class, come in and see what they have to offer. All fitness levels are welcome and anything can be scaled to your needs. It’s truly the best thing you can do for yourself. They go out of their way to take care of the members and you will feel it instantly which in turn will help you meet your goals and stay motivated.
Coach Don was great, lots of work covered this evening. I attended 2 classes. Ground fighting and the multiple attacker Black Belt prep class. (The drop down box didn't have Don listed for this review)
Blue Titan is fantastic! Friendly and welcoming environment with attentive and knowledgeable coaches. Good variety of classes/times with challenging and motivating workouts for all fitness levels. Gym is clean and well maintained and offers variety of other supports (nutrition/accountability etc).
Happy to be a part of this supportive community!
I joined the 6 week challenge and knew within the first week that I wanted to be a part of the team beyond that. I started with zero gym knowledge past running on a treadmill. Those first 6 weeks I dropped 11 pounds and now that I'm 3 months in I've hit 20 pounds down. Every coach I've come across is so knowledgeable and supportive. They will customize every class routine for each individual person and make sure you are challenged every time. They will keep track of your PR's with you and push you to do more than you thought you could. Proud to be a Blue Titan!
After Covid and a few years off from the gym, I needed to change my lifestyle. The BT staff has been great! They gave me a nutrition plan, weekly weigh-ins, and constant accountability. The staff idle amazing, supportive, and knowledgeable. The members are great! Best decision that I’ve been made!
I’ve been attending classes for three weeks. Absolutely great experience. Instructors are knowledgeable, committed, and highly motivated. Personally, they’ve challenged me each time I attended a class. Recommend anyone that wants to learn self defense skills or cross fit give this program a shot.
This was my first time trying CrossFit and everyone was super welcoming and helpful when introducing the workouts. Even for the tougher Olympic weightlifting moves 🏋️, the coaches ensured that I was working on good form while still pushing me for an effective workout. Class sizes are definitely on the smaller size but I honestly don’t mind at all since it gives more personalized instruction. So far, really enjoying it!
Blue titan has a clean and well equipped facility with strong instructors that make working out exciting. The community of people working out at blue titan make it welcoming and I feel like I’m always working out with friends and family.
Blue Titan is a very welcoming and safe place to get fit. All the trainers are very welcoming to newcomers and help ease you into the classes. I would defenitely reccommend Blue Titan for anyone looking for a safe place where they can get in shape.
After moving to the area I wanted to get back into the gym. The coaches have not only been welcoming, but also super knowledgeable and understanding. I actually look forward to going to class and they offer various times, which is helpful with a busy work schedule. My only regret is not starting earlier!
It started my CrossFit journey in this box and was positively overwhelmed from day one. What a Crew, what a spirit! I felt very welcome and learned so much. Recently, I had the chance to do a drop in during a visit to NJ and visit this fabulous place again. It was like coming home. Keep up this great work and dedication that is so apparent when you walk in the door! Thank you so much!
After many years of not working out, I was nervous to get back into the gym in front of others. Blue Titan’s staff and CrossFitters made the transition easy and so welcoming. They have made tough work outs motivating while feeling supported. I can’t wait to go back every morning!
Great environment for all skill levels, they prioritize safety and ensure you understand all the movements you're making. I've tried multiple other gyms that are closer to my home over the years, but none came close to the results I've seen here and the quality of the staff and workouts. Highly recommended.
I’m new to CrossFit. I didn’t really know what to expect. I found that Blue Titan is great place to challenge yourself. The workouts are scaleable so you’re working out to your individual abilities. Coaches are top notch. Super friendly and very enthusiastic while they guide you through the workout. The hour flies by and you feel the benefit right away! Highly recommend Blue Titan if you’re looking to start a fitness regimen or to change up your routine!
I started looking for a place to take a few self-defense classes a couple of weeks ago and came across Blue Titan. After a quick consultation I decided to give it a try on their 21day trial. What I didn't know at the time was I had actually signed up for a family. Everyone here, from staff to members is extremely nice, supportive, helpful, and genuine. Definitely above and beyond the call of duty! I had some extremely specific self defense concerns I needed to work through and they offered me a personal training session with Lima and one member even came to assist in the training as well. All I was expecting was to learn a few practical skills but I also ended up with an amazing support group. I would definitely highly recommend to anyone looking for some practical self defense (or CrossFit) training in a real genuine family environment. 🙂 A million stars if I could!
You’ve swiped enough on Instagram and TikTok. You’ve liked all your faves bodies and their healthy lifestyle posts. You’ve wished for the body and lifestyle you want long enough, now it’s time for action. The team at Blue Titan makes the process fun because it should be. This is a team that makes sure your a** is here putting that work in. You don’t have to be the best, shoot, you don’t even have to be good. You just have to try and the team makes sure you do. Coach Jen, Nogi, and Eric are amazing and make sure you’re getting the best out of each workout. The gym is clean, the people are friendly, and for some reason the weights are super heavy lol. Honestly, BT is really worth it all. Come through
Blue Titan is hands down one of the best CrossFit gyms I have been to. I’m new to town and everyone welcomed me in like I was part of the family. Amazing people and coaches…highly recommend to anyone looking to get a good workout in!
My sons and I have been going to Blue Titan for about seven weeks. It has been an amazing experience for all three of us. I would highly recommend anybody interested in going give it a try. All of the instructors and trainers are very attentive to everyone’s different levels of needs. I honestly can’t speak highly enough about Blue Titan!!!!
Everyone, from the coaches to the members of this gym, is super supportive. I have never felt like an outcast. They’ve all welcomed me with open arms and have supported me! They’ll always check in and make sure you’re okay and grasping on to what they are teaching you. I did mostly Krav, but everyone truly has been wonderful. What a great experience ☺️ What a great FAMILY
Jen and Cheryl, thank you for always being there for me! I’ve never truly felt “alone.” Miss everyone 💔
Love this place! I was never the type of person that had a fitness regimen or something I really loved to motivate me to stick with it. Blue Titan has helped me find my thing! The environment and coaches make is super easy for someone new to fitness and with a busy schedule. I just show up to the already programmed workout and then get to modify to where I am in my skill level and there is always room for growth. Been here for about 2 years and can call it my second home. The results have been 👍Thank you!
I would absolutely recommend Blue Titan to anyone that is looking to adjust their fitness and health. I think my favorite thing about the gym is how attentive the staff is. They approach every person individually to make sure that their needs are being met. When I first came into the gym I had a history of knee surgeries from years of athletics and was nervous about re-injury. I had been to previous gyms that said they would work around the injury and didn’t. The team at Blue Titan was fantastic, they made sure to take time to evaluate me before I started and adjusting the workouts so that I could strengthen my legs without re injuring myself. The focus on proper form and technique and not trying to push heavier weight early I was able to work through the injury and was able to go back to doing squats without fear of hurting myself. The attention to detail for each person coupled with the coaching program for my nutrition also allowed me to take off much needed weight quickly and efficiently. It truly is a great gym and environment to work out in and you quickly find yourself being supported by the other members to make sure that everyone succeeds in their fitness journey.
I partake in both Cross Fit and Krav and the one thing consistent across both is the quality of instruction. Very experienced and detail-oriented instructors with a meticulous focus on proper technique and form as well as safety/injury prevention. Absolutely love it. Very challenging work-outs tailored to each individual at all levels, and very convenient class schedules. Great group of members too.
Blue Titan is much more than a gym; it is a community of like minded individuals who share a common goal. The owners vet every individual before they allow a member into their community, which creates the most amazing atmosphere to work out in. The staff is attentive to new members and work towards improving the skills of existing members. I call it a community because existing members offer friendly and informative advice to new comers like myself. Blue Titan is a family owned and operated business which means they have morals and values unlike businesses run by corporate overlords that only care about profits. If you really want to make a life change, I highly recommend you check this place out; the classroom setting helps to keep you accountable when you need support. I wish I joined sooner.
Blue Titan is awesome! Everyone there is so kind and helpful, and they genuinely want you to do the best you can and to continue to improve. The Krav classes are wonderful, and while they're certainly not easy and you're encouraged to get uncomfortable, you learn so much and in such a great environment. There's nowhere else I'd rather be!
The Blue Titan facility is fantastic, very clean, organized and offers a lot of variety for your workouts. The coaches are stellar, professional and have taught me so much, truly hands on, all the time. The flexible hours and the many classes that are offered, easily work with my 9 to 5 day-to-day schedule. The frequent check ins via text from the owners and coaches are a great personal touch, especially when you are just starting out on your cross fit journey. I’ve never experienced such a continued welcoming at any facility ever; nor have I ever been this motivated to work-out. Truly a great place and I highly recommend.
Blue Titan is more of a family than a gym. There is a tight knit community here that is unlike any other, and I would challenge anyone to find a more supportive or empowering group of individuals. The coaches are knowledgeable and willing to take time to make sure you get the full experience of the class you sign up for.
Anything from Blue Titan is more than worth the investment, and very quickly you’ll see the change in your body and mindset.
This gym is staffed with the most fit, outstanding people. There is an array of options in terms of workouts as well as schedules. The owner, Eric, and trainers Jen, Keith, Nogi ( just some of whom I'm familiar), are in incredible shape, extremely knowledgeable, high energy and personable. They don't leave newbies to fend for themselves. They are so attentive to your form so that you don't hurt yourself. The gym is spanking clean with all the bells and whistles you'll need to maximize workout. They are socially conscious and community oriented, so events are always underway. I'm neither athletic or gym oriented but this is 2nd home. They also have nutritious foods and clothes. What more can I say...❤️. Love this place!
Joining blue titan was/is the best thing I've done in a long time. It has changed and enhanced every part of myself and lifestyle. I've seen huge changes in my physical and mental health and would recommend BT to any and everyone that will listen. The facility, the coaches, the vibes and energy are all top tier. Join and change your life today!
Absolutely love this place 😍. I just moved to rockaway nj and was looking for a community and a place to workout. I stumbled upon blue titan fitness while going for a walk and thought I'd give it a try. After my first class i knew this would be the place i want to go to. It has great programs and coaches that keep you wanting to come back. I always feel proud of the workout I've done and I always leave learning more about myself and crossfit. It is most definitely a huge part of my daily routine and the communtiy is also super supportive. I Love Blue Titan Fitness.
Classes have been great and there are members of all levels in attendance. Instructors are awesome and they take the time to show proper form and modify any exercises to accommodate injuries. Love the family feel so had my son and wife sign up as well. I signed up for the nutrition and coaching program which has been exactly what I needed.....down many lbs already and getting back in shape. I am only a month in but definitely no complaints with the BT so far!
This is the first gym I’ve ever joined & I couldn’t be happier. Intimidated at first, I found everyone at Blue Titan to welcoming and accommodating... students included. There are no ‘clicks’ here; your only competition is yourself; and everyone motivates you to do your best.
All of the coaches here will quickly know you by name, and are more than willing to give you individual attention when needed or requested.
Highly recommended.
There's nothing more important in life than your health - you know it's true when you don't have it. I invest in my business, my house, my retirement account, but wasn't investing in THE most important thing!
Blue Titan is the best investment I've ever made! They continuously exceed very expectation! It's not only the classes, the facility, the people, the On-Demand workouts, but it's incredibly motivating when someone genuinely cares about your goals and your success! I find myself not wanting to let them down, and in the process have improved my fitness, lowered my weight, increased confidence, and changed my lifestyle!
Anyone can put some equipment in the basement or go to a $20 gym, but I could never have gotten on my own what BT gives me!!
Hi! My name is Kathy & I have been a member of Blue Titan for almost 2 years now. This gym has not only changed my physical appearance, but it has completely changed my mental health & well being. I have given up bad habits that have been with me since I was young. This has made me an all round better & healthier person & an even better NANA to my almost 4 yr old granddaughter! I can not believe how strong I have become. I also love that Blue Titan introduced me to Prestige Labs supplements! I regularly purchase their ‘Intra’ which is a delicious powder that goes in your water bottle & 100% works to remove soreness & lean muscle repair! I love that I can purchase it right inside the gym at such a great price! At 63 yrs old, I never dreamed I would be where I am at today!!! I look forward to going to Blue Titan everyday & seeing my great coaches & friends & getting a great workout!
Blue Titan is an amazing health and fitness community. I have tried both in the gym and their Blue Titan On Demand services and both at are exceptionally worth every penny and time spent. Everyone at BT from the owners to the staff to the members are so dedicated to health and overall improvement of one’s life.
Not your average gym. Eric, Amanda & all the Coaches are authentic, extremely knowledgeable & they truly care. They listen, hear & understand about each member’s individual needs. They are so very supportive and so are all the members. We cheer each other on , give each other that extra push that is sometimes needed to accomplish what we want to accomplish. It doesn’t matter what level you are at, modifications help me maximize my workout & avoid injuries. As a matter of fact, I started BT with a knee & Achilles injuries from playing soccer & now , I’m stronger and able to workout & play soccer without pain and no more knee brace! I love everything about BT, this community & experience has changed my life.
If you are reading this review, you've already made the first step in your fitness journey, which is finding the right place to begin. Blue Titan is HANDS DOWN the best gym/box I've seen!
The owner, coaches, staff and members are some of the best, friendliest, heartfelt, supportive, and encouraging I have ever encountered!
I joined Blue Titan in May of 2017. I weighed atleast 189lbs (that was the last time i weighed myself before joining) i was slow, unfit, out of shape (unless you considered round a shape) and only getting worse.
I stepped into Blue Titan the day after mother's day, unsure, uncomfortable, uncertain, nervous, apprehensive, and afraid. I knew NOTHING about crossfit or weights and WODS.
I was warmly greeted by the front desk staff followed by the coach and introduced to the other members taking the class. This warm welcome eased some of my fears. What helped me the most on that first day and the following weeks is that the coach took the time to explain, walk me through, and assist me with every aspect of the workout. From form, weights, movements, skill building, and even scale many of them due to limitations, injuries, and lack of strength.
I have been a regular at this box for over a year now. I have lost over 50lbs and the inches have melted away. But that is NOT the best part. The best part is my gains! I've gained strength, confidence, friendship from the staff and members, knowledge of healthy eating, self discipline, consistency, endurance, speed, and the most important of all, becoming a healthy role model for my 6 year old daughter!
Blue Titan has truly bettered my life and my family's lives!
This gym is great. I started with a six week challenge and got hooked. The instructors are phenomenal and everyone is extremely supportive. The members always root for and push each other. When every workout is over, someone always tells you that you did a great job. It is a true community.
I joined Blue Titan to mainly work on my conditioning and to use the 6-week challenge to get a jump back into shape. They provided me with a realistic meal plan I could stick to and a variety of workouts that encouraged me to come back the next day. As someone that frequently gets sore after simple workouts, it was nice to have the Krav Maga classes as an option to change things up but still making puddles of sweat. They also do a lot of events outside of the gym and encourage you to participate, making you feel more like a member of a gym and not a customer of a gym. Highly recommend for anyone looking to get into shape, get back into shape, or to stay in shape.
I joined Blue Titan fitness and took part in the 6 week challenge. By following the meal plan and participating in their cross fit classes I was able to lose 12 pounds and 10% body fat! I couldn't have accomplished my goal without the help of the Coaches and the rest of the BT family. I highly recommend Blue Titan to anyone who wants to get healthy and feel great about themselves.
I was never one for going to the gym. Blue Titan fitness has changed my perspective. I LOVE blue titan! The coaches are awesome. The work outs are great and different everyday. I finial look forward to getting to the gym.
This place is no regular gym Blue Titan is way more than just a gym 🏋️♀️. I know I've joined quite a few gyms and would never stay for than 2 weeks but when i joined Blue titan... omg that was the best decision I made because they made me feel like I belong there, they made me feel motivated every single time I trained. The coaches are amazing Blue titan is an amazing family like community they check on you all the time to make sure you aight they truly show they care, they go getters and they gonna get you in shape they helped me achieve something that I thought was out of my reach in such a short period of time. Now 6 weeks later after hard work and with their 💯 support I feel stronger, in great shape and best of all I reached my goal and I feel fabulous.. 💯.. thank you Blue Titan!.
I’m someone who loves to do the out of the box work outs but also love the cheat day(s). Between Blue Titan’s 6 week challenge and the wonderful CrossFit coaches, I’ve gotten back into a routine and a healthy lifestyle. I highly recommend this place to anyone. They make you feel welcome and the workouts fun!
Blue Titan fitness is the home away from home. The instructors are awesome and everyone makes for you feel like part of a family. I recently under went an amazing transformation, thanks to the 6 week challenge. I’ve been struggling with losing the weight for years but from day 1 I’ve been supported and have lost over 20 lbs in a month. If you are looking for a place to lose weight or workout, then Blue Titan Fitness is the place to go.
I love it when I can feel at home in a gym and I have found that at Blue Titan. There is such a great cross-section of people at Blue Titan and the coaches, staff and owners work hard to cultivate a great sense of community. The training is excellent and the coaches really care that people are learning, improving and having fun doing it. The extras; pot-luck dinners, holiday parties, competitions, seminars and clinics are great ways to meet other people from a variety of backgrounds.
Whether you are a beginner or a hard-core athlete there is a place for you at Blue Titan!
Anyone who knows me knows I love Blue Titan. The instructors/coaches are great, they live what they teach and it shows everyday. It is not just a gym but a community. I have made some great friends from all walks of life in the four plus years I have been taking classes there. I started out taking Krav Maga and then gravitated to crossfit and I have loved every minute of it. They have helped me understand nutrition so I eat better which means I train better, look better and feel better. If you want to experience something better come check out BT.
I highly recommend Blue Titan Fitness to everyone!!! I went in there to learn self-defense and not only did I learn a lot but I got in GREAT shape while doing so. The coaches work with you and make certain that you are doing everything the right way, they encourage and push you to ensure that you are getting the best workout possible. It is a great feeling when the coaches are there to push, motivate and guide you to success. It is a Great place to come and get in shape and learning self-defense.
Blue Titan is amazing. Their tagline is "don't join a gym, join a community" and they MEAN it. I joined only 7 months ago and I am a different person; stronger both physically and mentally. The coaches are personable, dedicated, and passionate about helping you become better in every way possible. The other members are great, always willing to help out and encourage you to do better. One of the defining moments in decided to join was at the end of a workout when we had to do 75 burpee broad jumps as a "finisher." I was new and was taking a long time after everyone else had finished. One of the other students came up to me and did my last few with me so that I wouldn't be alone. That is what it means to be part of Blue Titan.
I started coming to Blue Titan in October 2013 with my 2 teenage daughters to supplement my cardio workout. However, immediately after the first session I and my daughters were hooked. The trainers are fantastic - all of them. They make the class exciting, energetic, and I would be surprised to see someone who is not completely worn out after the class - not matter what level of strength or endurance they have. This is the real thing! Additionally, they create an extremely friendly, home-like atmosphere for all beginners whether you come by yourself or with someone else. I became a HUGE Blue Titan fan.
BTW, those who are reading this... I am not a stand in writer, employee, friend, etc. who works Blue Titan. I wrote this because this is how I, my kids and I can probably speak on behalf of everyone who goes there - feels.
Don't believe me? Speak to me here on G+ or you can find us training there usually Mondays and Wednesdays.
I came across Blue Titan by chance about a year ago. I have never been a big fan of working out at gyms but thought Krav Maga sounded interesting so I decided to give it a try. Best move I ever made. The place has a great atmosphere and the workouts are awesome. The owners and instructors are knowledgeable and very friendly and take their time with each student. I recommend this place 100% without hesitation.
Awesome! I joined the the school last september, and I love it. As a trainer my self I was looking for a place to train ME.... Blue titan gives me a great workout, knowledge on self defense and more confidence! The trainers are all excellent, very nice and fun to be with.
I recommend it to all my clients and friends.
