CrossFit Habu

Wow, where can I start with this place? It is absolutely amazing and the community is top-notch. Sometimes it can be intimidating to go to a new gym and start something new to better yourself but this entire Gym community is so inviting, comforting and makes you feel a part of the family.

I’ve been going here for nine months straight during my entire pregnancy and the coaches, the vibe and the people that show up motivated me to come every day. I couldn’t have done it without them. !

I’m a seasoned athlete and still get pushed every day before pregnancy and during to reach my goals. The workouts are efficient, tough but manageable, & I feel like I actually put in Work every day I come. I’ve been to some other CrossFit gyms on the island, and there is nothing that compares to this truly.

I found Habu because I was looking for a gym with childcare. I found that and so much more. This gym was so welcoming and the people were so kind. Everyone was supportive even though I had no experience. I was a member for 4 years until I had to move. The staff is incredible and knowledgeable. I highly recommend giving this gym a try because you just might find your new best friends here.

Great place to begin your crossfit journey! I came to Okinawa to visit my family for a few weeks and they brought me to this place. Everyone was very welcoming and all the coaches made me feel safe and helped me through my beginnings. Good vibes and music too! :)

If you want to get true gains, CrossFit Habu is the place for you. CrossFit in general gets a bad reputation with the amount of injuries that happen but not here! All of the coaches here provide amazing instruction before and during each exercise to prevent injury. They even provide modifications to the exercises as you build your strength and endurance to RX. The energy here is phenomenal from the owner to the coaches to the members. For over a year I watched them all cultivated a welcoming environment and build the Habu family. CrossFit Habu made Okinawa home for me. 10/10 would recommend!!!

The perfect example of what a CrossFit gym and community should be. Immaculate vibes, fun programming and even better people. Truly one of the places I’ll miss most when leaving. 10/10 recommend.

Owners, coaches, and athletes are all amazing. The most welcoming and supportive environment. Highly recommended!

Owner, coaches, and fellow athletes provide an incredibly welcoming atmosphere for everyone! Workouts are scaled providing a rewarding hour for every level, from beginner to experienced. Coaches take the time and effort to ensure you leave a class proud and excited for the next workout

Great coaches & programming! Tremendous help getting back into a routine after moving. I love the community there. Everyone truly is welcome regardless of fitness level, background, etc. The definition of work hard, play hard.

The best box in Okinawa. It is awesome community example of crossfit.

When I first visited crossfithabu , they gave me a special experience. Hope to see you soon. Thanks to all.

I joined CF Habu because I wanted friends who were locals that enjoyed fitness. Working/living on base 24/7 you don't feel like part of the Oki community, Habu really changed that for me. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

CrossFit Habu has one of the most welcoming environments, it does not matter if you are new to fitness or a seasoned CrossFit athlete, CrossFit Habu has something for everyone. I 10/10 recommend this gym.

I was visiting Okinawa and dropped in to hit the wod. What an awesome group of people. I had a great wod with wonderful coach, Steven. I would join this tribe if I was a resident here in Okinawa! I strongly recommend this place!

The epitome of a great CrossFit gym!!
We were welcomed with open arms and had a ball training with these guys on a recent trip to Okinawa.
Everyone in the gym was really friendly and encouraging!! Plus the workouts were great traditional CrossFit WODS. Loved it!!

During our holiday on Okinawa we dropped in for a full week at CrossFit Habu. It was so amazing. I have never felt that welcome in any other box before. We made a lot of good friends there. Staff and members are so nice. They really have a special community there. Next time we’ll return to Okinawa we’ll definitely Dropin again at CrossFit Habu.

Prior to joining CrossFit Habu I had little to no motivation to workout. Now, I look forward to going to the gym every single day. The coaches, members, and staff are all wonderful, motivating people who foster a real sense of community. Which goes a very long way for those of us stationed so far from our families. I would recommend Habu to anyone and everyone!

Best box ever! Crossfit Habu is more than just a gym...it’s a family! The owners, Jason and Yuki, do a great job at keeping the facility clean, safe and professional. The childcare staff are all amazing, and they treat my son as their own. The members are all so welcoming and encouraging. I’m so thankful for this box!

The owner Jason, coaching staff, and patrons are all part of the Habu family. Habu does a great job of catering to all experiences levels, from the first time working against gravity to competitor level programming and coaching. Whether you are looking for that Araha beach body or just want to lift heavy things with friends Habu is a excellent place for a one time drop-in or a lifetime membership. Gains!

More than just a box to do crossfit. It's definitely a family. The coaches are amazing at working with you and getting you where you need to be. Best decision I ever made to join here. My daughter and I love it.

I. LOVE. CrossFit Habu!

Before joining the Habu box, I attempted CrossFit at other locations. Sadly, my fitness and healthy lifestyle journey came to an abrupt halt because I just felt like I didn't fit.

I decided to give my journey a go, after complications with my health, once more about 9 months ago. I walked into the box and joined in on the WOD!

I haven't looked back!

If you're nervous because you aren't "fit enough", or skeptical because of personal insecurities?!?, CrossFit Habu is the perfect place to help you overcome it all.

We are more than a community; Habu (CrossFit Buddies) are like family. We support one another, disagree, laugh (a lot actually), cry, and push each other to meet and/or exceed their goals (especially Personal Records). I've NEVER felt like someone was picking on me, laughing at me, or anything negative. I had a fear, from previous experiences, that I'd finish last and everyone would leave me to note my results alone. Not at HABU!!! We warm-up together, WOD together, cool down together, and clean up (cue Barney song) TOGETHER!

The WODs are always challenging; however, I feel the best I've ever felt in years. I'm more confident and secure in many ways- physically, mentally, and emotionally. The owner and coaches are...amazing! They easily adjust to the many personalities floating in-and-out of the Habu box, while still pushing everyone to do their best and always try to give more than your last.

My personal achievements (proof):
I joined the box unable to run a full 200m without feeling like death, I could ONLY lift a 35 pound barbell during WODs, pull-ups (even with a band) were detrimental to my soul and mental state, a handstand was out of the question, and my squats were equivalent to the Tin Man trying to bend with no oil (as nice as I can put it!).

Today, I am down 20 pounds, I still hate running but I ran 800 meters (TWICE!) last night without stopping, I cleaned 115 pounds, strict pressed 70 pounds, and could overhead squat 65 pounds. I am able to do pull-ups with a band now, sometimes two, I can flip myself into a handstand, somewhat walk up a wall, and my squat is typically at parallel now. I have a prior shoulder injury, so the coaches personally helped me with different range of motion movements, and now I have less pain and difficulties during WODs. I've shocked myself with my many accomplishments, gotten frustrated, and now I find myself staying a little longer to do skill work because I simply want to be better. I still have a ways to go, but I've also come a loooooooong way!

Just know, the CrossFit Habu family is unadulterated awesomeness! You should give it a try!!!

You won't regret it!

I would say I am a competive athlete of sorts. Best gym I have visited in a long time. Both in Japan and United States. Walked in and felt like I was welcomed immediately. Good atmosphere to be pushed and gain better skills. Will be returning!! Thanks agaun Habu for the competition. I'll be back
