Neighborhood CrossFit (NHCF) is a family owned and operated CrossFit box located on Main St. in Ramona, CA. It is literally, our family training yours. We have been training in CrossFit for over six years and received our training under some of the best trainers in the CrossFit Community, Jeff and Mikki Martin, owners of CrossFit BrandX and founders of CrossFit Kids. We believe in the CrossFit methodology and have seen the results first hand. Each of our trainers is a Level 1 CrossFit instructor. We also have certified CrossFit Kids instructors. We enjoy sharing the CrossFit experience as a family and hope to share it with you!
In addition to the physical benefits, we at NHCF believe the spiritual component is just as important. We are a Christian family, whether you are a believer or not we all want healthy families and healthy marriages. Balancing your family, marriage, work, and others can at times be difficult. We offer a spiritual WOW (word of the week). This is a post that may include a focus word, a bible verse, or positive message with perspective and we encourage you to be mindful of the message for the week.
The bottom line...Our goal is to help you achieve yours! Whether for competition, work, your overall health, or combination, we are dedicated to providing you with the best training in a family oriented atmosphere.
