Our story
How we got here
Years of training, community and a few transformations.
2015
CrossFit Schoten opens
The box opens its doors in Schoten, close to the canal. A small but passionate community forms around shared workouts and a belief that functional fitness is for everyone.
2021
Reborn as CrossFit W
The pandemic changes everything. Rather than closing, the gym transforms. CrossFit Schoten becomes CrossFit W — a new name, renewed energy, and a commitment to growth. Inga joins as co-owner, bringing her passion for the CrossFit Games and an exceptional drive to build something great.
2022
Lynn joins the team

CrossFit W evolves again. Inga and Karel take the reins together as co-owners, continuing to grow the community across CrossFit, Bootcamp, HYROX and CrossFit Kids. The first official HYROX training club in Antwerp — and still going strong.
What we stand for
Our values
Four things we protect, whatever else changes.
Community first
Fitness is better together. We train as a group, celebrate together, and push each other further than we'd ever go alone.
Coaching over counting
We care about how you move, not just how many reps you do. Every class has a coach — watching, correcting, encouraging.
Everyone belongs
Beginner or advanced, 20 or 60+, first day or five years in — there's a place for you here. No judgment, no gatekeeping.
Results that last
Not a 6-week fix. We build fitness that carries over into your life — energy, strength and confidence that sticks around. Longevity is a thing here.
