11/10 would recommend! Knowledgable coaches, welcoming staff, friendly community, and clean equipment - what more could you ask for? They offer Hyrox and CF classes. Whether you are training for the CF semifinals or just trying to learn how to jump rope, this gym is awesome for everyone (:

Love UCC. The hospitality is amazing, the space has a great energy, and the classes are always tough but feel great. Such a great community there too.

There aren't enough adjectives to describe how amazing UCC is. It's my third CrossFit gym that I've joined since moving to Jersey City 5 years ago, and my last, because I feel like I'm finally home. This is my second year participating in the CrossFit Open with UCC and I couldn't be more proud to compete alongside such amazing people and community. I commute from Jersey City to Union City and I do not mind at all because it is well worth it. They are also a HYROX affiliate, they have platforms for weightlifting, and their hours for open gym works for anyone with a busy schedule. The space is beautiful and they keep the gym very clean. Each of the coaches are very knowledgeable, they are there to help us, the programming is top tier, and they set you up to succeed. The community is incredible between the staff and members. Everyone is respectful of each other and everyone's working space. A few months ago I began working with Nadine who has created a program tailored to my goals. She is absolutely brilliant; I love her and working with her has been incredibly wonderful. Also, the other coaches who program for others are amazingly wonderful. Each takes the time to listen and tailor to your goals along with getting everyone ready and prepped for the open or other competitions. Because of Nadine and her programming along with the other coaches and taking their classes, I have grown so much stronger and better as an athlete. Everyone puts in the work and has positive outcomes. Which in turn, we grow together creating lasting friendships and overall amazing community. My suggestion, come and check it out. They offer a 7 day trial and/or drop ins. You will not be disappointed!!

I’ve had a gym membership somewhere since 2000. After 26 years of training and working professionally as a strength and conditioning coach across Northern NJ and the greater NYC metro area, I’ve experienced a wide range of gym cultures. Unfortunately, my experience at Union City CrossFit was one of the most uncomfortable I’ve had. The space: The facility itself is beautiful and well-equipped. The layout supports both class and open gym training when used thoughtfully. The access: One of the biggest draws is the open gym policy. Having access from early morning through closing hours is rare in Hudson/Bergen County and is genuinely valuable. It’s one of the reasons many local coaches refer to it as “the coaches’ gym.” The community: This is where my experience shifted. Unless you primarily take classes, don’t expect much integration into the broader community. As an open gym member, I was discouraged from socializing with others while training — something that is typically a natural and positive part of CrossFit culture. That initial interaction set a tone that never improved. There was a consistent sense that I was not entirely welcomed, as a member or as a fellow coach in the industry. While this may not reflect everyone’s experience, it was mine, and it influenced how comfortable I felt training there. Additionally, open gym etiquette was often inconsistent. Equipment and space would regularly be monopolized, making the area difficult to use efficiently and diminishing the benefit of having open access in the first place. I gave the membership nearly two years, hoping the culture would evolve. For me, it did not. If you are looking primarily for structured classes and enjoy a tight-knit internal class community, this gym may be a good fit. If you are an independent open gym athlete or coach seeking collaborative camaraderie and mutual respect, your experience may vary.

It was a great gym. More spacious inside than it looks on the outside!
