We do this because it’s at our core. We know we need to make fitness fun. Check out our philosophy:

«There are no judgments here — No too much or not enough. No glares of disapproval. Here we keep open minds. We are nurturers. We seek only to encourage, empower and entertain. There is no one type. There is no one reason. There is no one way. What we are is a diverse community; what we have is a culture of fun; what there is, is room for everyone: all kinds of people with all kinds of goals who’ve chosen to come reach them with us.

Crunch. No Judgments.»

History

Established in 1989.

Our mission — to make exercise fun. And, accomplishing this mission meant doing away with traditional notions of what a ‘serious’ workout should be. What we did was to invite a highly creative group of fitness instructors with a wide range of expertise to collaborate with us. The result was the development of challenging programming with a completely fresh slant. Offerings like Hip-​Hop Aerobics, Co-​Ed Action Wrestling and Cyked Yoga Cycling were introduced and, along with others, became the embodiment of this new approach.

Assaf G.

Business Owner

Assaf has always had a passion for health and fitness… but what really gets him going is spreading that to other people. Seeing them light up when they make the connection between the gym and a better life is why he got in to this business in the first place.

Assaf is super excited that his baby, the first ever Crunch Fitness in the Bronx, is located in the Norwood section of the Bronx. Crunch has found a great home here in the Northern Bronx, and the team looks forward to continuing to deepen the relationship with the local community.
