Blue House Fitness, Portland OR

I recently completed my L1-CF course at Blue House Fitness, and it was an incredible experience! From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted by a welcoming and supportive community. The staff and coaches at Blue House Fitness are top-notch, offering personalized attention and expert guidance throughout the course. The facilities are fantastic, well-equipped and maintained, providing the perfect environment for learning and training. The course itself was comprehensive, challenging, and highly informative, giving me valuable insights and skills that I’m excited to apply. I was particularly impressed with the hands-on approach and the focus on practical, real-world applications of CrossFit methodologies. Overall, my time at Blue House Fitness was not just educational but also immensely enjoyable. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to deepen their understanding of fitness and CrossFit. A big thank you to the entire team at Blue House Fitness for such a rewarding experience!

What makes Blue House the best gym in Portland are the staff and the community. Super supportive folks who all work as hard at lifting each other up as they do on their own fitness goals. The various programs ensure they have options for everyone looking to get healthier through fitness and nutrition.

At 40 I’m light years fitter than I’ve ever been in my life! The Blue House people make it possible… for me having a fun, supportive and social community is absolutely key. If that’s what you’re looking for this is 100% the right place!

Pain is the game, results worth so much more though. Great community, more like a family, we push each other forward. Very integral piece in my life that I need so much more than I realize.

Amazing community, passionate staff, beautiful facility… if you are wondering if this is for you, it is!

Yes, it is a crossfit gym, but really, it is so much more. It is a community of support. I love going to Blue House because they have lots of class times, an easy to use app to reserve spots, track progress, and communicate to coaches and individuals, and they are constantly improving and adding fun options, e.g. Cooking classes, open work space, etc.

Feels like home!

This is my 3rd CrossFit gym and it feels like home! The community was welcoming from day 1, I am hitting records for myself at 41, and it's great to see people new to CrossFit thrive in this environment!

Blue House has totally changed my life and overall fitness. I’m in better shape physically and emotionally than I’ve ever been in my life at age 43. Thanks Blue House!

Blue House is such a great gym! There are members with all levels of fitness, from those that don't know how to lift a barbell to elite athletes. What's best is that the coaches do an excellent job of scaling the workout to where you, personally, are on in your fitness journey. So while it may be intimidating - it's not! Anyone can do these workouts, and the community will celebrate every win with you.

They've added a recovery space, mobility and cooking classes, and different workshops and intensives. There's a lot going on and likely more to come. Can't recommend enough!

Awesome environment to train in. The facility is super clean and organized.

All the coaches are super helpful, and the community very welcoming.

If you are like me and need workout accountability partners who will encourage you no matter where you are in your fitness journey, then Blue House Fitness is the place to go. As someone who has not taken my health seriously enough over the years, I am so happy that I took the plunge and joined my first class here at Blue House. I was intimidated at first, but those anxieties dissipated over just a few classes because there were so many people there willing to help me and encourage me. Anton and Courtney (the founders) do a wonderful job welcoming people, and this openness is exuded by their staff as well (shoutout to Miguel who is one of the best trainers of anything, not just fitness, whom I have ever worked with). I can say so many nice things about this place, but you should just come by and check it out yourself…it’s pretty amazing (and the facility is top-tier to match the community)!

I have been on and off exercising for years and I have always resisted enrolling in a gym. Blue House helped me to change my mind and get me into a routine. I am a 72 year old woman who wants to be active. The Blue House provides me with all I need: great coaches, great facility, and a fantastic community. In addition, all the exercises I do are appropriate to my skill level and help me to improve my strength and to keep my mobility. I strongly recommend it to all interested in exercising, particularly those in my age group.

Fantastic CrossFit-style gym - and a lot more. Big beautiful space. Recovery room with cold plunge tub, sauna, percussive massage guns. Co-working space. Full kitchen (where they offer cooking classes). But the best thing about Blue House is the people. The coaches are excellent at meeting you wherever you’re at in your fitness journey and helping you progress at a pace that is both challenging and comfortable. The community is supportive of one another and inclusive, welcoming people of all fitness levels, races, orientations, gender identities, etc. I was a member before the 2020 pandemic, took some time off, then started up again about a year ago. I’m so glad I did. The workouts and the community have unquestionably had a positive impact on my life.

It’s fine I guess….
LOL JK
THIS PLACE IS GREAT. I’ve been here for 6 years. I don’t think I have any other friends. Not sure I remember how to talk about things other than weights and what tomorrow’s WOD is. This place has a piece of my heart and (most) of my blood, sweat, and tears.
11/10 would recommend if you wanna get hella fit (or like only moderately fit. There are lots of options) and make the best friends of your life.

This is quite literally the greatest gym I've ever been a part of. The facility is great, but even more than that, the community is what keeps me coming back. Every morning, I am greeted by a group of people who have become friends over the years. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

Joined six months ago, and it immediately felt like I've been coming here for years. Great new facility, friendly people and helpful coaches. If you're looking for a fitness community and you're in N/NE PDX, this is the place!

Blue House met me where I was at and has helped me achieve things I never thought possible in my fitness. BH had a special brand of crossfit that is rooted in great people from diverse backgrounds. You are encouraged to work at your pace with friendly and gentle encouragement. Those who want to be pushed can find that here, but those who just want to work out and get a good sweat going are also well supported. A very special place. Would recommend it to anyone who wants to invest time in their fitness, benefits from external motivation, and is looking to work with some seriously kind and compassionate people.

This place is AMAZING. I joined about a year and a half ago and it’s the best thing I’ve ever done! The community is so welcoming, I felt at home instantly. The coaching is INCREDIBLE- coaches are always engaged and supportive and helping athletes to push themselves to the next level. Blue House is very special and I’m so glad I discovered it.

Could not speak more highly about Blue House. Stellar programming, top notch facility, amazing coaches, and a hardworking, humble,
welcoming culture among the membership. I’ve been doing this a long time in a ton of different gyms and Blue House is head and shoulders the best. Whether you’re a fitness rockstar or just starting your journey, I couldn’t recommend Blur House more.
