This review is based on my own personal experience. It is not to discourage anyone from joining. However, I feel the need to speak my truth. I was a former member. I am still willing to give five stars because the program itself is very effective and I have the utmost respect for Elyse as a person, coach, and trainer. She is extremely good at what she does. Unfortunately, I didn't have a good experience with a certain male coach. I don't think anyone paying membership deserves to get yelled at in front of the entire class. Especially when I had already discussed the matter with Elyse

I couldn't imagine working out anywhere else.
Crossfit 808 defied all the negative stereotypes I had about CrossFit before becoming a member. The gym focuses on technique over reps and weight. Coaches make sure you know what you are doing so you don't get hurt.
All skill levels are welcome. Anyone worried about not being experienced enough can throw those reservations to the side. It's incredible to see the diverse demographic of members. From teens to athletes in their 70s, no one is excluded.
Not sure if it's the challenging workouts or the community that feels more like

My wife and I have been going to this box for over a year. We love the coaches and the community in this box, which makes us not want to leave or train at another box. The trainers are awesome, friendly and helpful in explaining techniques/form. My wife and I have seen a major change in our health as a result. Highly recommend this box!

Hands down the best Crossfit box on island. Ok, I may be a little biased because I've been training there for 3 years, but honestly it is the truth. First of all, the coaches are first class and are always ready to correct poor movement, offer scaling options or provide motivation when needed to help you work through a tough WOD. Second, we have a very strong community that is comprised of athletes of all ages and skill levels who work hard and support each other day in and day out. What else is there to say? Oh yeah, and we are in Hawaii!! One last thing, we also have a few (very down

I joined CrossFit 808 about a year and a half ago and I'm not gonna lie...I was really hesitant. I totally stereotyped it thinking that I have to climb ropes, flip tires and end up probably hurting myself. My husband convinced me to try it out so I reluctantly agreed, and so we signed up for Elements with Coach Josh. All I have to say is that I was SO WRONG! It TOTALLY was not what I expected! Josh showed us the correct ways to do each and every move so we don't hurt ourselves, he was very fun and patient so it helped put us at ease. I learned that there is so much more to CrossFit then

My home away from home. I can't tell you how good it feels to walk through the CrossFit 808 doors after you no longer have the opportunity to do so (we moved off island). My aches for this place while the Navy makes us lives elsewhere. This will always be home to us. The coaches, the members, the behind the screens work by Uncle Ty...truly a one of a kind place.

I visited this box on my holiday from Australia. Staff and members were so friendly to us. Coaches were very knowledgable. Great facilities. I always recommend that my friends visit CrossFit 808 when they visit Oahu. It is a great box and I was very impressed as an international visitor. Their community should be proud.

I love this place, if you want to get world class coaching this is the place to be. Great family vibe from the coaches and members who will help you reach whatever goals you have. Hands down one of the best gym on island if not the best. If you don't believe me drop in and see for yourself you won't be disappointed.

This is a great gym with awesome workouts and coaches. Wish parking was a better situation but that is everywhere in Hawaii. Not mention the staff are games and regional athletes which is just that much of a reason to visit this caliber of gym.
This gym has made my time in Hawaii truly memorable and once I leave the island the community at 808 will be one of the top things I miss the most.

I went in to inquire about joining. Met a trainer who referred me to to call the manager Kate to speak to her about joining signing up but she didn't answer so I left a message. I waited a day with no call back and so I called again but still not an answer and no call back. FYI it takes a lot of courage to walk into a place where everyone is in better shape than you and seek to them for some help and the don't even call back at all. I guess I don't want to give this place any of my money anyways. Too bad.. my work is right down the street

CrossFit 808 is awesome. I was visiting from the mainland and emailed about a week prior just to see if I can come in. Elyse (Team 808 badass) let me know that I could stop by during my visit to the island.
I was able to find some time to break away from the family to check out the box. I went to their noon class and Elyse was coaching.
I had to drive about 30 minutes to get here, but it was worth it. For any visitors, park at the front lot where all the stores are. All the back alley parking is reserved for the shops. Good thing I asked one of the coaches about parking otherwise I might have

Been with this box since Feb 22, 2011! First day it opened! I can honestly say that this place has been my 2nd home ever since. As an active duty air force member, crossfit has helped me be in the best shape of my life and is responsible for always keeping me mission ready. Once you visit here, it is easy to see why the coaches, the people and the box ranks first class!
Coaches: Elyse and her staff are not only remarkable and accomplished athletes but they are outstanding trainers as well. These guys are a wealth of knowledge and love what they do. From coaching kids to masters, the coaches know

Crossfit 808 is the best crossfit box in the 808! If you want to go off accomplishments they have a lot to offer! 2012 Masters Champ! The owner has was in the top 29 finishers of the games! Trips to 2013 games as a team! And this year I believe they are 2 in Northern California region and 13 in the world for team!
But this is not just a gym for veterans of crossfit you can be a beginner having no experience at all they will cater to you and show you the way!
The box is always kept clean and tidy they have a bathroom and showers for your use!
All coaches are fun and friendly and very experienced

Crossfit 808 is the place to be! I've been "Crossfiting" since 2008, I have personally coached over 15 people for about a year, and I also have a Level 1 Crossfit Certification. I've been to many gyms, many in passing but I can say I've been associated to at least 3 boxes for the long term. Why do I like Crossfit 808? The programing is best I've seen yet, the coaches are second to none, and the staff are absolutely stellar!
Let me expand on this. Crossfit 808's programing works. If you want to be stronger faster and work longer, they will get you there

I noticed that Crossfit 808 have not recently received a review and I think they deserve the credit they put into their box.
You cannot ask for a better place to train than 808.
Coaches - Coaches are very patient and motivating (also ridiculously strong). You will notice that all the coaches are Avid Crossfitters. They live the lifestyle and it shows.
WODs - Some of the WODs put up appear impossible to RX. Sometimes you have to go with a lighter weight or scale and sometimes you don't. But everytime I RX, I definitely pat myself on the back.
People - I have never seen so much talent

I used to play basketball and run track and somewhere along the way I left it all behind. Got a little too comfortable in life and forgot how active I once was, that is until August 2009 when I received an email advertisement about something called...bootcamp? Crossfit has certainly helped me find my inner athlete again!
I first met Coach Elyse, owner of Crossfit 808, back in 2009 when she was one of my coaches at another box, (name not disclosed) she was one of the coaches introducing me to a bootcamp style workout. The program was designed to give me a taste of Crossfit without too much intensity

Are you looking for a laid back gym that will cater to you even if you aren't totally committed to becoming an athlete? Then don't go to CrossFit 808.
The "customer service" is not bad. When you are at the level of 808, you have the luxury of not having to crush yourself for every potential customer. And that is the point of a CrossFit box, right? If you are motivated and committed, then they are motivated and committed for you.
The elements class was a great into to CrossFit and its basic movements. Coach Josh was extremely knowledgeable (as was Coach Joe when my wife

This one star is for the one free session I was able to go to. I should have known better when I had to email them three times just to be able to confirm my booking for that free class. Don't even think about calling, they don't even have an answering machine!
The class was ok, I assume pretty standard for Crossfit boxes.
After taking that first class, I wanted to enroll in their Elements class (which is the training 4 weeks cycle). So I email again to confirm that I want to attend the next session. After four emails, I finally get an answer that I can start in three weeks. Well, life
