If you are in Folly Beach and get the chance, definitely drop-in at Crossfit James Island. Kyle was very responsive when I reached out about dropping in and Casey coached an awesome class. She had a great warm-up and provided helpful feedback and encouragement throughout the workout. Everyone I interacted with was welcoming and made me feel at home. Thank you for having me!

What an awesome place to be! Coaching was top notch and the programming was just the right kind of challenging. Would highly recommend dropping-in and giving them a shot. I know I will again when I’m back in town.

My wife and I were lucky enough to drop-in to CFJI during our visit to the Charleston area and what an awesome experience it was! Jenna is an excellent coach, the gym space is awesome, and the class was both challenging and fun. They even provide a really neat recommendation card for restaurants in the area which is appreciated as a visitor.We have been fortunate enough to drop-in at many boxes around the country and around the world and our experience at CFJI certainly ranks at the top of all of these. Thank you Jenna and Kyle and we look forward to seeing you again soon!

Its a really friendly, laid-back environment, with tough and fulfilling workouts. If youre on the beginner end, the instructors are super helpful without being overbearing or intimidating.

Highly recommend CrossFit James island! They are the best choice for making your fitness goals happen with well rounded workouts. Kyle is super knowledgeable in training and exercise as well as a super motivating coach. He knows how to prevent injury and make sure you grow as an athlete whether beginner or master. Their training gym is absolutely one of the best!

I highly recommend CrossFit James Island as I’ve tried other gyms and this is the best experience I’ve ever had. The on boarding process is great as it gets you familiarized with how the workouts are structured and the different movements you’ll encounter in the classes. The workouts are also very customizable, so they work for anyone at any fitness level. Kyle and the rest of the coaches are really amazing. They are super knowledgeable, supportive and really do care about your fitness goals. This is what sets this gym apart from all of the other gyms in the area. Definitely come check this gym out.

I highly recommend this gym, and becoming a part of this community. I’m new to the CrossFit world, and these past couple of weeks have been some of the most productive weeks of my life when it comes to improving my overall health and well-being. Not only are the coaches encouraging and friendly, there is a strong sense of community and non judgment from everyone I’ve met. If you’re looking for a high quality gym to work out at , sign up and come ready to put in the work.

After moving to the Charleston area almost year ago my wife and I were in search of a new box. I have been cross fitting for over 8 years now. My wife for 5 years. We wanted to find a box comparable to our previous gym. CrossFit James island fit the bill. The coaching is top notch, the programming is as good as it gets and the community is very welcoming and friendly. I was really concerned about the programming changing boxes. The programming here is really well done. There is a good balance of loading, time domains and progressions to improve your fitness level. The coaching really focuses on the core fundamentals to properly build strength to progress through the movements safely. The scaling options are always laid out before a class and explained in detail. I can honestly say my strength and endurance have improved working out here. Coach Kyle and Jenna really do a great job of explaining the movements and providing guidance in class as well as the other coaches. There is always a proper warmup before class before the strength or WOD. They handled the COVID situation very well with lots of communication and allowing the members to borrow a piece of gear to workout at home. My wife and I received a personalized note thanking us for being members signed by all the coaches during that time which meant a great deal to us as new members. If you are looking for a box to join as an experienced Cross Fitter or as a beginner, you won’t be disappointed with CrossFit James Island. Thank you!

I decided I needed more of a challenge with my fitness goals. I decided to step out my comfort zone and visit CrossFit James Island. Kyle made my wife Kelly and I feel comfortable from the beginning. Kyle and Jenna’s coaches are patient and are willing to work with athletes at whatever their level. I recommend CrossFit James Island if you are looking to take your fitness training to another level.

Joining CFJI was one of the best decisions I made, I felt welcomed and overwhelmed with everyones kindness. Since day one, I discussed my fitness goals with my coaches and they were able to accommodate me and scale my workouts since Im new to CF. Being a part of CFJI means that you are a part of a community where everyone is supportive and positive. Highly recommended.

CrossFit James Island is the best! The coaches have expansive knowledge and are always there to give advice on how to reach your goals. This is the place for anyone looking for a great gym.

Kyle Frazier’s knowledge of physical fitness is second to none. He really knows what it takes to get to any goal you may have. If you want to get fit check out Cross Fit James Island.

I was intimidated to try Crossfit but Kyle and all of the coaches are great! They are patient and accommodating to all fitness levels! They pay attention to form and technique to make sure you are progressing with every class. CFJI is a very supportive, encouraging and friendly environment.

I have only been going for a couple weeks now but I can’t recommend it enough. Awesome coaches, programming, and people. Never thought I would be excited to go to the gym, but here I am.

Ive been to a few CrossFit gyms and CFJI has been by far the best one! The programming is very thorough and thought out. And... the coaches and members are awesome and very welcoming. I moved to Charleston and joined the gym at the start of the pandemic. I was only able to go to the gym in person twice before the gym had to close during the pandemic and not once did I question my decision to stay a member until I was able to go in person again. I could tell that the coaches and community really cared. I even received a personalized, mailed, note saying they were thinking about me and were looking forward to seeing me again in the gym. Receiving a personalized, hand signed, note is almost unheard of these days and really meant a lot. Im so pumped about being a part of this community and would highly recommend CFJI to anyone in the James Island/Charleston area looking to live a healthier life among some really awesome people.

Great coaches and overall just a great gym.Workouts are challenging but fun. Atmosphere is amazing, everyone wants you to succeed and get better. If you’re looking to get in shape go to this gym, I guarantee that you will not regret it!

Awesome space with an amazingly friendly staff. From the owner to the coaches they will take care of you and make you feel welcome and at home from the moment you walk through the door.

Awesome gym and outstanding community who pushes you every time you show up to help you live a stronger and healthier life!

Great experience! Coaching, atmosphere, wod, and fellow athletes were all awesome! Highly recommend.

The sense of community at CrossFit in James Island is great. People care for each other and give each other the support and push they need, not only at the gym but in their personal lives. As Im going through a really messy divorce, everyone has been offering their support, from making me food to help with running earned. I love you guys (you know who you are).

CFJI is more than just a Crossfit gym. It is a family where everyone pushes each other to be the best person they can be not only physically, but mentally as well. My life continues to change for the better each week and I relate a lot of that to our amazing coaches. Coach Kyle and Coach Jenna strive to create an atmosphere that welcomes everyone into the family!

Visited from out of state while on Vaca. The owner made everything incredibly easy. Signing up for walk in classes, a lot of different class times to chose from, knowledgeable coaching, and great programming! If Im ever back in the area I will absolutely visit this box again.

Crossfit is only as good as the coaching and you will spend a long time trying to find a more involved and concerned set of trainers whose focus is on your overall long term health and not just your shiny beach muscles. Do yourself a favor and give it a try. 15-75 there are all ages of people in this gym and it is a great place fostering great camaraderie

Great box! The coaches and athletes were very helpful and welcoming.Thank you for letting us jump in with you!

CFJI is top notch. The coaches and members are awesome. CFJI has a fun and motivating environment for people of all skill levels, even kiddos! I highly recommend.

Great place to workout! I stopped in while on vacation and had a very pleasurable experience. Staff was knowledgeable and even gave me different tips on form! Workouts were challenging but they had different scaling options! The community in the box was so welcoming!! Highly recommend!

Dropped in while visiting friends at Folly Beach. Great place and genuine people with positive attitudes. Ill be back whenever Im in the area again. Thank you!

I have been a member of CrossFit James Island for over 4 years. I am huge into fitness and CrossFit and CFJI was my foundation for that passion. This gym has taught me all the fundamentals of CrossFit while supporting my gains and helping me through challenges. The owner and staff are knowledgeable and extremely dedicated to total fitness including proper nutrition and safety in the gym. I highly recommend this gym to anyone including any drop ins if you are in the area. Strong community feel and very welcoming while maintaining the traditional CrossFit rustic box feel.

Great drop in experience! The coaches work hard at building community and it shows.

CrossFit James Island has become a home away from home for me. The Coaches are highly invested in you, giving each member and drop-in the attention they need to ensure that everyone has a high quality workout. Add on the great community of CrossFit James Island that welcomes each other with open arms and it is a recipe for personal success and growth.

Great coaching. Its CrossFit the way it was meant to be. Nothing fancy. Just a supportive community that values hard work. Did I mention great coaching? If youre looking for a smaller gym with lots of attention this is the place to be.My daughter has also participated in CrossFit Kid classes and CrossFit Kids camp this past summer. She loves going and has learned great lessons about fitness and nutrition from the coaches.

Joined this community being new to Charleston and new to any sort of weight-lifting experience. I felt welcomed, encouraged and comfortable from my first day there. The coaches talk through each movement as we start, give alternates ways of working up to the prescribed movement and always welcome any question I have. I have learned a lot, certainly toned up, and had a lot of fun with the people Ive met there!

I’ve been going to CFJI coming up on 2 years now and It continues to be the highlight of my day. Kyle is a great coach and has built an amazing gym.

Ive always considered myself an athletic person and not until I started CrossFit did I become a true athlete. I use to go to the gym and do my own things but now with the coaches, the educational support on technique and nutrition, and motivation/inspiration from the other members, my fitness and health have both significantly increased in such a positive way. The atmosphere, everyday, is one of encouragement and support. I love CFJI!!!!

CFJI is a great box! Friendly folks, welcoming atmosphere, nice equipment, solid programming! Thanks to the owner Kyle for accommodating us! This is the box for us when in the Folly/Charleston area.

Great coaches who provide a lot of individual attention and instruction. The environment is very non intimidating and encouraging for people of all fitness levels. If you want to give crossfit a try or are dropping in from out of town, this is a great place to go!

I started January 4th 2016, after a long but fickle love affair with all types of routines after playing competitive ball in my youth. Dont be intimidated- these people are fun and range in abilities. But rest assured you can get to peak level here if thats your thing. Kyle, Brian, and Jenna are amongst the best trainers in the business. I know because I was injured and had a great team around me during the years following. The trainers here have a specialized breadth and depth of knowledge and they practice the lifestyle they teach. Come try it! Youll love it!

Amazing community, coaches, and programming! One of the few boxes that tie in nutrition. If youre visiting Charleston, this is absolutely the best box to visit. Just 10 minutes from Folly Beach, and you may even catch a beach WOD!

Great coaches that provide a killer workout. They are not only very helpful, but also fun! Doesnt hurt to give it a try to see if you like it...you could become addicted like me! :-D

Awesome atmosphere at this gym. The coaches and members were very welcoming. Coach Jenna was an excellent coach/athlete and the owner Kyle has been involved in crossfit for over 10yrs now, his gym reflects his experience. I highly recommend CFJI and will definitely be back!

Very well run facility with excellent coaches. My family and I signed up for a week of classes while on vacation in Folly Beach this summer. Even though we are still novices at crossfit Kyle and Jenna were very patient with us and taught us a lot.

Spent the weekend on Folly Beach for a bachelor party/weekend. Hit up Kyle regarding a drop in and got back to me promptly. Everyone was incredibly welcoming. Will definitely be coming back next time Im in Charleston. Im not the kind of person that leaves reviews, but they were awesome. Had to do it.

CFJI is phenomenal. I lost over 30 pounds after 6 months, increased my strength dramatically, and I developed a great relationship with other members. Its program is adaptive to get results for people at any fitness level. And if you have an injury, the coaches are very knowledgeable in how to modify the movement so that you can still participate safely. I highly recommend CFJI.

Awesome coaches! Patient, gave clear instructions and flexible with the offerings! Great set of people to work out with all around!

Great team. Great family. Have enjoyed multiple WODs and with the encouragement from others and coaches hit a few new PRs. Keep’em coming

CFJI has been a LIFE CHANGING experience for me! For someone who has had a chronic case of gym-phobia her whole life, CFJI opened its arms with a loving embrace. Love the people, the workouts and the motivation I feel to live a healthier lifestyle!

I love it at CrossFit James Island! They are super nice and encouraging and I am always so happy and motivated when I finish my workout!! I always look forward to going every chance I get!

Awesome coaches and friendly athletes! The best decision I have made was to switch from traditional gyms to CrossFit James Island.

Super helpful and encouraging coaches & an awesome community environment. Was convinced to try it out once and now I go 5x a week.

Great place to work out with amazing coaches!

CrossFit James Island (CFJI) is simply the best gym in Charleston. I joined in March 2016, and in one month there Ive gotten more than what I got from a year at Golds gym. The coaches are terrific, the programming is literally world-class and the other members are more than just other people at the gym - theyre teammates and friends. CFJI is more than a gym, its a community that will get you healthier physically and help form a critical part of you living a healthy, productive life. I totally recommend CFJI!

You WILL NOT find a better Crossfit box anywhere. CFJI has somehow managed to create a community that includes everyone AND challenges everyone. There are some elite level athletes within the community. Others, like myself, are not so elite. However, I felt welcome from day one, I am challenged every time I walk in, and my gains in a short year have been incredible. Since CFJI is close to the beach, we get a lot of vacationers that drop-in during the summer. Virtually all of them comment on the quality of the coaching, the intensity of the workouts, and the overall vibe of the gym. There is always some point in the workout when one of them says, I wish my gym was like this. That pretty much sums it up. This gym is the gym you wish youd always had.

Great coaches, good programming, awesome gym community! Would highly recommend.

Great coaching! Have you never tried Crossfit or weightlifting before? No problem. The coaches at CFJI are excellent teachers. They provide thorough explanations of all of the movements performed during class. If your dealing with an injury they will give you alternate movements for the workout and also provide tips for mobility.Challenging and fun workouts! The programming at CFJI is a great mix of sprint workouts, longer met-cons, body weight movements, and heavy lifting.A fun and supportive group of people to workout with, along with some friendly competition! Ive developed many new friendships at CFJI. Everyone is very supportive and encouraging during. New members and drop ins are always welcome.

In nearly a decade of Crossfitting, and having experienced more than 15 different Crossfit affiliates, I can tell you that Crossfit James Island has been the best. They have intelligent, progressive workout programming.Every session includes a structured warm up, followed by technique instruction applicable to the days movements, a strength portion, and then the workout of the day. It all fits into an hour.The group is very welcoming to anyone no matter the experience and I look forward to every workout.My daughter also did their Crossfit Kids program and she LOVED it.

I am so thrilled that my husband found CFJI for himself and introduced it to me! Love that the focus is on correct body positioning. My husbands body is looking better and better with each workout. Yay! I wont complain about the fact that he is so much happier too! I just finished my 5th workout today, I am feeling stronger and more and more excited for what is to come! I highly recommend CFJI no matter what your fitness level is.... The secret of getting ahead is getting started. The secret of getting started is breaking your complex, overwhelming tasks into small manageable tasks, and then starting on the first one.-Mark Twain

Great workouts with wonderful people! Love this place!

Great coaches and encouraging environment!

Exceptional coaching!

My husband Mitchell dropped in here on our honeymoon in Charleston and had nothing but great things to say about the experience! He dropped in to multiple gyms in Charleston but this one had the best sense of community, welcoming arms, and great competition. That’s what we love about our home gym in Winston Salem and what is offered at James Island CrossFit! Thanks Kyle and Kellie for letting him be apart of yalls community for an evening!
