Im an amateur at best when it comes to CrossFit, but I have come to really appreciate the coaching and expertise offered at Tectonic. I came into it highly intimidated by the sport, but always feel very welcome and supported and encouraged when I attend. The coaches are highly engaged, the instruction is incredibly well-thought out and programmed, and the athletes are supportive and encouraging. HIGHLY recommend. :)

We had a horrible, terrifying experience at Tectonic and feel that others should be aware before choosing this gym as soon many are raving about the “great coaches”. My husband was taking CrossFit classes and during a session with “Coach Gabe/ Coach G” — who is also part-owner of the gym— and sustained a terrible injury which could’ve resulted in something much more life-threatening, including death. Seriously, still gives us both (husband and I) nightmares to this day!!Coach Gabriel should have been paying attention while he was “spotting” my husband. However, he wasn’t and didn’t catch the heavy barbell which slipped and fell on my husband’s face while he was bench pressing—cutting though his chin, chipping teeth and leaving his lip literal hanging off his face. During this time, although they brought the First Aid box, the “coach” and staff were useless while my husband attempted to control the bleeding himself. He was also the one to ask for them to call the ambulance and he was taken to the ER. That’s where I met him— it was extremely difficult to see (I was also pregnant at the time). My husband sustained a lot of trauma, including 3 broken teeth and had to have 22 stitches, his lip was numb for months afterwards and is still not “back to normal” a year later. He now has partial numbness and a scar (inside the mouth and on his lower face). He also had to have dental work done to repair the injured teeth. (Pic of him several days after the injury to illustrate.)My husband contacted the gym and met with Coach Gabe to follow up and ask the gym to cover some of the out-of-pocket expenses that were not covered by insurance. Gabe said he would speak to his partner and get back to us. We never heard back so followed up a couple of weeks after and didn’t get a response. My husband didn’t want to pursue this legally and we wanted to move on and try to forget this happened. But as I said, over a year passed and we are still living with the consequences of Coach Gabe’s negligence and lack of professionalism afterwards so wanted to share this (as difficult as it is to relive this!). We’re still living with the mental trauma, my husband has scars for the rest of his life— and we spent hundreds of $$ out of pocket (which is the least a gym that charges premium fees should’ve been able to cover, imho). Thankful my husband is still with us, as the injury could’ve crippled or killed him had the barbell fallen higher or lower (on his neck). We had a baby and one on the way and I am thankful to God they have their daddy! No thanks to Tectonic or owner/ Coach Gabe. I understand this injury was unintentional, but they were negligent and then completely ignored us and any responsibility for this accident. That’s not ok and others should know how Tectonic handles their business and cares for clients. Please do your research on this gym and know the risks!!

Highly skilled coaches and a very supportive environment. Smart and safe protocols during the pandemic.

I have friends, family members and even strangers come up to me and say you look good what are you doing?? I tell them I Crosfit. And their response is usually, thats so bad for your body or eww you are going to get big. I respond with, yeah you might get hurt if you have a coach that doesnt emphasize on technique or have solid programming. And yeah I could get big if I wanted to train that way. Crosfit will always give you what you put into it. Tectonic Crossfit has been the only consistent training that I have done in the past 10 years. I have tried multiple fitness gyms and even other CrossFit gyms. I have been at Tectonic for almost 2 years. What has kept me coming back for more is the coaching!! you could not ask for more dedicated coaches, you can feel this is all heart and soul for them. We are not members paying dues to a gym. We are a strong community.

I highly recommend Tectonic CrossFit! I have been training here for a couple of years and I love the community as well as my fitness goals and results . All of their coaches are highly professional and knowledgeable and they go above and beyond to make sure we train in a safe and effective environment. The community is extremely supportive, it’s such a pleasant experience every time. Im glad I made tectonic Xfit part of my lifestyle.

Excellent Training and coaching! This was my first Crossfit gym (but not my first studio gym) and I was really impressed by the quality of programming. The classes are always small enough that the coaches will take the time to help you with form, pacing, or anything else you need improvement or encouragement on. I definitely recommend this gym to anyone looking for excellent training. You definitely get what you put into it!

My family has been attending classes at Tectonic Crossfit for the last couple of years. We could not be happier with this box!! The Coaching Staff is extremely knowledgeable, and helpful with movements and scaling options. They are very cerebral when it comes to their programing. It is very clear that they want the best for their athletes. They have a very good schedule of class times each day, and make it easy to find a class that fits most schedules.The Tectonic Family is just that, a family. All of the members are friendly, and cheer each other on, and support each other!!I consider myself very lucky to have found this box, and look forward to seeing my friends each day!!

Gabriel and the community at Tectonic CrossFit were a welcoming group.I was an out of town drop in and they treated me like family. If you are in the Vancouver area and looking for a home gym or start a new lifestyle Tectonic will help you reach your goals.

Ive been coming since February and have never enjoyed anything Ive done for fitness as much. The coaches care so much. More than I thought a coach could,l. The atmosphere with the other athletes is really positive; it makes you look forward to coming even though its really challenging. Ive gotten so much stronger and I feel the benefits of this every day in my energy. Ive lost weight too, but along the way Ive started to care a lot less about that and a lot more about exploring all the things my body can do.

Great training. Warm up, work out, cool down. Great form correction from all the coaches

Tectonic CrossFit is by far the best box in the area!! If you are looking for an amazing workout, encouraging coaches and kind, wonderful people to workout with this is the place for you! Everyone is welcome here with any level of fitness! The coaches do a wonderful job of teaching proper technique and scaling exercises to your fitness level!

The BEST box in town. The people are kind, the workouts challenging but accommodates well to scaling. There’s plenty of equipment and always space in a session. Highly recommend!My husband have not been training for the last couple months, but we hope to start up sometime soon!

They have an amazing team and program designed for any athlete or individual, at any fitness level. I was hesitant and nervous about trying CrossFit, however Coach G instilled so much confidence in my abilities. Highly recommend for a great workout. You will not be disappointed with the burn and sweat after each workout.

Awesome people and great space. I dropped in to this gym on a trip for a couple of days and was treated like royalty. I appreciated the friendliness of the members, the knowledge and support of the staff, and the great equipment. An all around great place to do fitness!

Cant say enough good things about Gabriel and his insanely good programming! He always pushes his athletes to their limits and the results are unbelievable. I was very lucky to train under his coaching back in NYC and its a lot of fun fellas! Would recommend to anyone in a heart beat. Best coach I have ever had over 3 years of doing CrossFit in multiple boxes.

5 stars easy! I would say Im at a slightly above average fitness level and a way below average Cross Fitter slash normal non-athlete just trying to be fit. I highly recommend Tectonic for all fitness levels. (1) Excellent Coaching: Coach Kendra, Gabriel, and Greg are very knowledgeable and encouraging; good level of intensity but also safe (2) Great Atmosphere: the people here are friendly and normal, the regulars are great athletes but also super nice and helpful (3) Accessible: Coaches do a good job scaling the workouts, most people actually scale and still get a great workout. If you are in the PDX, def. drop by for a class!

Coach Gabriel (G) is by far the most dedicated and inspiring coach/mentor Ive ever known. He utilizes your strengths and understands your weaknesses enough to correct and improve them. He keeps WODs fun and takes pride in building a strong and welcoming community. Youre so so incredibly lucky if get the chance to work with Coach G.

My guy Coach G aka Young Virtue is an amazing coach and even better person. He knows his stuff, keeps you motivated and practices what he preaches. I started my fitness lifestyle with him 2 years ago and even though I have moved away my favorite workouts and classes were with him. Long live the H.A.M squad!!!

Im so glad I took the opportunity to experience Tectonic CrossFit - this is an excellent facility with superb training protocol, a super friendly, open, and encouraging atmosphere, and highly skilled coaching (thank you KP, Mark, and Greg!). I loved it - if you are Eastside check it out and go here! Im pretty new to CF and Coach Gabriel was incredibly thorough and precise in the movement evaluation and his technique tips were sophisticated immediately helpful. I grew a lot in just a few days here and love how they treat each person like a true athlete with unlimited potential.

Coach Gabriel is the best Crossfit coach Ive ever worked with. Kept me motivated without being scary, and pushed me further than I ever knew I could go. He is instructional and specific and you learn while you work, but he never loses track of the fun. Dont miss out on the opportunity to work with him!

I cant say enough positive things about my experience in the last two months. The coaches care about every athlete from the beginner to those that have been doing CrossFit for many years. I feel my CrossFit journey has now taken a turn to improve my fitness journey. Kudos to all the coaches.

Great community and coaching. Love being able to stay athletic and feel like an athlete as a busy adult.

Last thing I wanna surround myself with is bored housewives and Chad style dorks. Hard pass on this place. Walked in, walked out.

Coach G will change your life! Amazing intensity, excellent technique, concrete results. Mastery in philosophy and poetry also a plus. Highly recommend.

What an awesome group of coaches and community of members, one of the most hospitable and welcoming gyms Ive dropped in at! Such a pleasure to stop by Tectonic and I cant wait to come back when Im in town again!

Gabe is wholeheartedly committed to EVERY athlete - he is more than just a coach he is a caretaker making sure each one of his athletes is growing both in and out of the box. I cannot begin to tell you all just how lucky you are to have him as your coach. Do not be afraid to ask questions AND if you ever see him looking at you with his head titled sideways and the most serious look DONT BE INTIMIDATED - he is taking mental notes, thatll soon become physical notes on how you move where your strengths lie and where there is room for growth. He will constantly push you to face your weaknesses and will totally celebrate with you when you reach new PRs. I have nothing but love for Coach G.

Working out at CrossFit Camas has been a great experience. The coaching staff is superb. My goals starting Crossfit were to become better at my job and more energetic in life. Working out here has not only made me a better athlete, but also has taught me about nutrition and over all giving me a healthier life style.

More than just a place to get a great work out - its a community of diverse people, all ready to cheer one another on. Great coaching for adults and kids, good class times, ample space and equipment.

There isnt a more knowledgeable CF coach in the game than Gabe. His passion for helping people achieve their goals is unmatched.

Coach G is the man! If you truly want to learn and develop your skills as an athlete, I highly recommend checking out Tectonic CF!!

Coach G was my coach for 2 years over at Crossfit Queens in NY and I had the privilege of training with him at Crossfit Tectonic several weeks ago,while on vacation.He has always been an inspiration and Ive learned so much from him over the years.Thanks Coach!

Great gym for all levels of CrossFit athletes. Rob McBee, the main coach and trainer, possesses a wealth of knowledge and patience that he incorporates into all his classes. I would highly recommend you give it a try whether you live in the area or are just passing through and looking for a box to do a WOD. CrossFit Camas is one of the few who still believe in the community mentality that CrossFit was founded on.

I was a personal trainer in my former life and was a little hesitant to join a group class and I had never been involved in crossfit. My wife and I joined about a month ago and we have loved it, every brutal workout has been awesome… everyone in the class is so encouraging, it reminds me of playing football in collage… and rob is such a nice guy, but he knows his stuff… I leave every class with the tank on empty every time… I would recommend crossfit camas to anyone who wants to get a great workout in a non threatening atmosphere.

Excellent individualized coaching. Nice people.

Very friendly and helpful staff, scaled workouts, easy to get to.
