“Impact One Fitness was just the personal-training gym I was looking for. Ali, Micah, and their entire team--Jorge, Thomas, and Divya--are excellent at what they do, and very knowledgeable each one is. They are not only thorough professionals but also good people with a good heart and positive energy. The same positive energy is reflected in the gym's atmosphere, which makes a big difference while you're getting in shape there. All my workouts were tailored to my needs, and I truly appreciated that. The gym is spacious, clean, well-equipped, and well-maintained. Ali and Micah always patiently responded to all my concerns and questions in detail, as did my fantastic trainers, Divya and Jorge, who did a great job at training me. Even though I had to terminate my membership early due to a personal health emergency, I gained a lot of knowledge in the short period of time, which I aim to implement in my workouts in the future. I highly recommend Impact One Fitness for your fitness goals--the team here works with sheer integrity and professionalism (and smiles). :-)“

“Strength and Mobility has drastically improved my life in the year+ since I became a member. The workouts and monthly programs are thoughtfully designed and each person is fully supported by the spectacular coaches and gym family that they have cultivated. As a person with a disability, I’m especially happy with how the coaches modify exercises to fit my personal needs and push me to continue my progress. I’m so incredibly grateful for Strength and Mobility and can’t recommend it enough.“

“From 120 to 133: My Journey with WWF Team Introduction: A Struggle to Gain Weight At one point, I found myself at a mere 105 pounds due to stress in life & long working hours, feeling like a feather caught in a gust of wind. My solo training efforts had nudged me up to 120 pounds, but there I plateaued--stuck in a weight limbo. It was as if my body had whispered, "Enough, my friend. You need more than self-motivation; you need a team." Enter the WWF Team: My Weight-Warriors And so, I found Wing Warriors Fitness. Their approach was holistic, like a symphony of nutrition, exercise, and unwavering support. Here's how they orchestrated my transformation: The WWF team didn't just throw a salad with chicken breast at me and call it a day. No, they dissected proteins like scientists--timing, types, and daily portions--all in pursuit of my weight gain crescendo. Picture this: a type of protein when me & my muscles awake in the morning, followed by another type of protein before work out, yet another type of protein/amino acid during work out session, 1 more type of protein within 30 mins of workout, and wrap up the cycle with yet another type of protein before sleep. Team this up with a ratio between protein powder & food intake, I finally recognize all those muscle soreness didn't go nowhere. Exercise Symphony: But wait, there's more! The WWF team composed a symphony of exercises--exercises that could strike multiple part of the same muscle group. They orchestrated a harmonious crescendo of strength gains. The Grand Finale: 133 Pounds And then, like a climactic finale, it happened. The scale blinked, and there it was: 133 pounds! I stood taller, not just because of the extra weight, but because I had a team--a weight-wielding orchestra--by my side. Conclusion: Gratitude and Muscles So, here's to the WWF team: my trainers, my confidantes, and my weight-whisperers. Thank you for turning my struggle into a symphony, my weakness into weight, and my journey into a standing ovation.“

“Better Body is an amazing pilates studio! I attend both mat and reformer pilates classes at least 3x/weekly via Class Pass and I keep coming back to Better Body for a consistent, well-rounded workout! Classes are challenging and there is a focus on appropriate form, which sometimes gets lost in group environments. I appreciate how the instructors provide real-time feedback to prevent any injuries, as well as modifications if needed. Mari has been in business for over 20 years and there's a clear reason why! Can't wait for my next class.“

“This man took me from chunky to average. On my way to fit as we speak. He knows how to train different people with different body types and with different goals. He does it all with a smile on his face and and good humor, almost as if you’ve been friends for years. Highly recommend if you’re wanting to get in shape and make a friend while you’re at it.“

“I haven't been to the gym in many years, but when Stive 11 popped up on my feed, I knew it was my type of gym. I'm a busy working mom, so my schedule is tight and jam packed. I love a gym where I can go in anytime without any class times. The workout is focused and efficient so I can get in and out. I love that the stations they set up change daily which keeps it interesting. I was very nervous going in, but relaxed once meeting the multiple friendly staff. They started by taking some data collection with this cool machine they have. Now I can track my progress on an app. Next, we began a warm-up. As I moved from station to station, they were attentive and explained every exercise as I came to it. I have issues with my back and neck/shoulder, so they were able to modify and adjust to work with me. It was a no brainer that I needed to join. I'm excited for this new fitness journey.“

“Rick is highly efficient and is a pro at his craft. In a short amount of time I can feel and see results. Gym Equipment is in great condition and every inch of that space is super-clean. Good stuff.“

“I've been going here for a few months now and it's fantastic. Great staff and trainers who are able to accommodate my busy schedule.“

“I have been training with Miguel for the past year. He has helped me improve my strength, fitness, and taught me how to lift weights properly. He has also helped with my nutrition to add muscle and lose fat. Miguel is always inspiring and pushes me to be consistent and achieve my goals. I highly recommend him!“

“Had my first class here with Corey's Tuesday 6pm Rhythm Ride. It was fantastic! Corey had an amazing playlist (up to date with what's popular, but not toooooo Top 40), great energy, rode on the bike the entire time, engaged with each rider by calling out our names, and overall led a great class with good instruction. The lighting in the studio was also so fun and felt like a party. I used to work front desk at Soulcycle and usually hold a high standard for cycling studios because of that experience. However, Dig totally exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend!“

“LOVE. My 12yo son is just starting, was very nervous the first day, but they had him fitting right in. My son has social anxiety, but craves individual style physical challenges (climbing, parkour...). Hapkido has been a perfect fit. I thought it would be "too baby/too beginner" for him, as a 12yo, but even with younger kids in the beginner class, he didn't feel too old. They challenge them right away to step up to level, and he left practicing the moves for hours.“

“I've been going to Pilates with Passion for over 10 years (with some breaks due to illness). Kelly is smart, fit, and very knowledgeable as well as a great instructor. She works at your skill level and makes accommodations for any special needs. Kelly helped me to lose 50lbs after 9 months of high dose steroids, to recover after a hip replacement, and regain motion and strength after two disc replacements and a second hip surgery. Plus Pilates is fun, graceful, and challenging. (I tried several classes at Club Pilates and there is so much more to it than what they teach, plus they don't teach you the core ideas or the ways to be safe. One of the moves they had my class do was not a traditional Pilates manoeuvre and I actually fractured my T11 vertebra while trying to do it. There's a reason the classes are cheaper.) Go to Pilates with Passion for the real deal.“

“If you would like your child to gain technical skills, develop relationships that encourage him to be a better person, and feel more and more self-confident, this is your place. Master Shawn holds his students to a high standard, and in this day and age, when expectations and standards are so lacking in our children's lives, I feel like Master Shawn and his crew are helping me parent.“

“Monique is an amazing instructor/ fitness trainer who is extremely passionate about what she does. Her motivation & energy makes working out so fun and rewarding!!“

“Mila is a brilliant and innovative biomechanist and Pilates master instructor. She has spent a lifetime crafting her approach and continues to develop it. She is a lifetime learner. Anyone who comes to see her has improved their life and body quality. Her knowledge is that profound and helpful. Not to mention, cases of people who thought their body just is the way it is or is a hopeless case and she’s been always able to help if not rehabilitate their aches.Since seeing Mila, I’ve grown 2 inches and have built muscles I didn’t know I had. My posture improved immensely and I walk properly for the first time in my life.“

“Becky is an amazing instructor. She tailors the class to your fitness level and pushes you to do more with such positive energy. I have been working with her over zoom for over a year and have seen dramatic improvement in my flexibility and strength. I look forward to going to the studio for an in-person session soon.“

“I absolutely hate working out. I have had a gym membership for 30 years and have never consistently gone. On September 1st of last year I decided to give the perfect workout a try. Except for being sick or injured I have managed to go twice a week and am noticing results. Holly is a fantastic trainer and is a pleasure to work with. She knows her stuff and cares about your success. I highly recommend this program. I still hate working out but because it’s only 20 minutes I am able to manage.“

“Been training with Jason for almost a year now and have seen excellent results. I'm definitely the strongest I've been in a long while and every session is a new challenge. The gym itself has everything you need and the folks there are always friendly, it's definitely got that gym family vibe. All-around great place to work out, and seeing great results from my PT sessions.“

“These guys know what they are doing. After a short interview they’ll get you started on a great program. The place is always clean and everyone is helpful and nice to get along with. James has helped me immensely.“

“Johny is brilliant, knows the human body and what ails you and how to bring comfort. he will also help you eat healthy, live longer, and purchase Tesla stock at $40 a share. Genius..“

“If you're looking for personalized help to get in shape (no matter how out-of-shape you are), then Triangle Theory is where you want to be. I had put on quite a bit of weight, and after a number of failed attempts at the right combination of diet and exercise, I knew it was time to ask for help. What I like about Triangle Theory is that they completely customize your plan. From my eating plan to my regular workout routine, everything is tailored to my lifestyle and body type. And I've seen results so quickly! What's even better is that they're teaching me about how to make this a sustainable change in my life, not just a momentary effort. Man or woman, young or wise, fit or hoping to be...you seriously won't be disappointed.“

“I've been Club One member for two years. When Fitness SF took over I didn't know what to expect. They've done a great job with new equipment paint and upgrading the whole gym. The Staff is very friendly and welcoming. I'm very impressed with my personal trainer, Kara Kim She was with Club One. And wisely fitness SF is keeping her around.“

“THE BEST gym I have ever been to and the BEST training I have ever received!! I have had up to 4 memberships at various gyms/ studios at once to not even get half the results I have seen at Califit!!!! So happy I found them!“

“Bought a package for my fiance and she loves it. Loves the one on one attention in a nice clean environment and is really enjoying the workout. Yes she says it is kicking her butt, BUT in a good way. After I recover from surgery I am anxious to join her on these round robin sessions, I am already seeing it pay off for her. She tells me the instructors are super attentive as well, so go show some support for this family owned business and get into summer shape“
