About Our Gym
What Makes Blue Titan Fitness Different?
We are not for everybody! In fact, we don’t want everybody!
Examples of people we don’t want:
People who hate puppies (because… seriously, who hates puppies)
Jerks, Selfish People or Philadelphia Eagles Fans (I’ve heard they hate puppies)
Closed minded “know-it-alls”
Braggers & People who don’t clap for other peoples’ successes
Bargain shoppers looking for a quick fix to a thirty year problem
Seriously.
We are for the small percentage of people who are serious about themselves and their goals. Who have an open mind, a positive attitude and a willingness to put in the work! Those who have given up their excuses and acknowledge that they need help. Help to get fit, to get healthy or to get safe with Krav Maga and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. For future military members who want to CRUSH their boot camp, future police officers looking to lead other leaders and parents who want to make sure their children are able to see the bar raised and the example set for what it means to work hard on yourself.
If you are serious…real serious…about training with the best, then click the link, book an appointment and come in for a free consultation.
Bonus! Tomorrow is Free High Five Day…but we only have a limited quantity so don’t wait! You don’t want to miss out. (I hear they are AMAZING!)

About Us
Blue Titan Fitness & Self-Defense was founded in November of 2011 by Eric Basek, a former police officer and SWAT operator in Washington DC. Blue Titan is an official CrossFit and Krav Maga Worldwide affiliate with an amazing staff of highly educated, experienced and dedicated instructors who live to teach.
Located at the southwest corner of Franklin and East Main Streets in Rockaway NJ, Blue Titan is a 2-Story, 6,000 square foot facility offering 4 bathrooms, 2 showers, a pro-shop, free wi-fi and a breakfast counter for our early morning classes.
We offer classes for beginners, intermediate athletes and competitive spirits. A community that is often called a family. A no-ego, no judgments atmosphere where the value of instruction is at the highest level of importance.
We believe that everyone, regardless of age, background or ability, has the right to live a long, healthy and productive life. Regardless of when you decide to start learning, we want to be the community you choose to learn with.
FAQ
Who Belongs at Blue Titan?
AWESOME people like you! We can only control two things in our lives: Attitude and Effort. So bring a positive attitude and a great work ethic and no matter your age, background or ability, you’ll have an awesome time.
Do I Need to Bring Anything?
A Big Smile. An Open Mind ready to Learn (leave the ego at your neighbor’s house). A willingness to Try! Oh…and clothing is probably a good idea. Working out naked is super awkward! Lol
How Early Should I Arrive?
Ok let’s be serious with this one. 15 minutes early is on time. Our classes run on the hour and start on time, because what is more valuable in our lifetime than our time?!? So please respect ours and we’ll respect yours.
What Are Classes Like?
Taking a class with us is like taking one giant step forward towards your goals. They are fun, within reach of any person who has a great attitude and will take you head first towards your goals of getting fitter, learning self-defense or both!
How Has COVID-19 Impacted Operations?
As of June 1st, 2021, Blue Titan has returned to 90% of normal operations pre-COVID.
Approximately 80% of all classes have been returned to the schedule and you can find CrossFit or Krav Maga options 7 days per week with options as early as 5 am and as late as 7 pm. Class attendance restrictions have been removed and restored to pre-COVID levels.
In accordance with CDC and NJ Guidelines, masks are only required for non-vaccinated members and staff (though anyone who choses may continue to use a mask). We will operate based on the honor system and respect HIPAA laws – if you are not wearing a mask, we will assume you have an immunity. Also, social distancing requirements have been removed, though any member who wishes to continue distancing and/or working with exclusive partners in class may continue to do so as well.
All cleaning and disinfecting protocols remain in place and will continue to be utilized several times per day to ensure the safest training space possible.
