ABOUT CROSSFIT CENTRAL

Jeremy Thiel, owner and CoFounder of CrossFit Central, moved to Austin in 2005 with a dream to build a fit community and become a staple in Austin’s fitness community. He shared this vision with his sister, Carey Kepler, Co Founder of CrossFit Central. Together, the brother/sister team began with only 12 clients and one boot camp location. This quickly grew to 4 boot camp locations. One year later their brother, Zachary Thiel, joined the coahing team and began running outdoor boot camps. Six months later Michael Gregory, also known as Big Mike, joined the coaching staff.

CrossFit Central affiliated in December 2005. While awaiting a gym space, Co-Founders Jeremy Thiel and Carey Kepler conducted group classes utilizing the principles of CrossFit. In February 2007 CrossFit Central opened our first gym at 5124 Burnet Road and began running indoor CrossFit classes. The first program had 4 people. By May 2008 we had outgrown this space and began to look for a larger facility. One month later we moved into a 3500 square foot facility just north of our 1st location. On August 2, 2008 we held a Grand Opening at 6505 Burnet Road!
