“Plenty of a variety of equipment. Rarely do I have to wait or change a workout plan. What really makes the gym are the people. Lots of older folk, some recovering from accident or illness. Some young energetic people. Old and young are inspirational and fun.”
“Dropped in while I was in town—awesome spot! Super welcoming vibe, and the coach did a great job keeping the class flowing with solid instructions. Definitely hitting this place up again next time I’m around!”

“This is a long overdue review! I'm extremely grateful to Tribe for helping me stay healthy and stronger since I joined 2 years ago. I was looking for ways to stay active while working from home and living with autoimmune disease. Having chronic health issues made me prioritize stress management and movement, but also be conscious of my body and find the balance between challenging myself and rest when needed. I love the friendly vibe of the gym (not the typical I have seen in other places) and that their schedule offers a wide variety of options, including strength and yoga classes, coaching, and seasonal challenges.
I was looking for a gym close to my home and ended up finding a great and fun community! If you're looking for a new way to stay active and healthy in San Francisco, you should try their 6-week challenge at Tribe!”

“This studio is lovely. My home studio is in Chicago and I dropped in to do a 610a class here while traveling for work. Anand, the lead instructor here, was phenomenal.
- Music selection - FIRE!
- Energy - ON 100 in the best way.
- Dimming the lights at cool down/stretching - NOVEL, why don't more people do this?!?!?!
They also have the new treads here which I really love. I'll be back.
One sucky thing, even though I have a unlimited membership, I still had to pay $10 to go to class. I'm sure that's a corporate thing, so I didn't ding them for this.”

“I won an auction for 3 Pilates reformer classes last year and I haven’t stopped going! I knew I had to start building strength for my health, but was having trouble motivating myself to go to the gym. Alison’s classes are fun and challenging. I can tell I’m so much stronger than I used to be.”

“I joined in December 2025 and am so happy that I did. This is an amazing community and I’ve loved how much fun it is to just show up and do whatever workout (WOD) is happening with a fun group of people.
I’ve felt safe in all my movements and love that there is always a way to scale the workout to meet me where I am at (and push me just a little bit past my comfort zone zone).”
“It took my partner and me a while to get back into a gym routine, but I’m so glad we chose Body Mechanix. I initially felt overwhelmed—especially with weights and equipment we weren’t familiar with—but Minh made all the difference. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and does a great job breaking everything down step by step, which helped us build confidence, strength, and consistency.
The gym itself has a welcoming, supportive community and excellent trainers. I highly recommend Body Mechanix whether you’re brand new to the gym or more experienced—you’ll feel comfortable and supported either way.”

“I never thought I’d fall in love with a bootcamp. Everyday we are presented with a new challenge and everyday I get the chance to exceed my limits and prove to myself that I can be stronger, faster, fitter. It’s been an incredible journey and even just being in the middle of the third week, my body already looks more toned, I have so much more energy and I feel absolutely incredible. Simon and Wayne are by far the best coaches I’ve ever worked with (sorry everybody else!) by the way they encourage you to push through the punishment (with awesome music to boot!) with workouts that I was previously unaware of. I’m no pro athlete or even amateur boxer but I feel at home at HitFit. I would one hundred percent recommend this bootcamp to anybody who wants to feel like a badass!
Edited to add: I’m now on my 3rd bootcamp. Pic one is from January, pic 2 is from May. These coaches have made achieving my dream body a breeze. If I had known I could be whipped into shape this fast, I would have done it a long time ago.”
“This was my very first Barry’s class, I’m visiting from out of town, the front desk staff and instructor (Sami) were all so kind and welcoming! Great workout with a mix of strength and cardio, easy to follow cues and a fun playlist!
They have full locker rooms with showers and towels if you want to freshen up after class, and even gave me a cute little welcome gift! I would definitely return to this location if I’m back in San Francisco again in the future”
“Was super happy with my first workout today. I didn’t know what to expect. Anand was a great instructor, allowing me to guide myself but also making sure I had good form throughout and Sofia was so kind and informative, pointing out special deals and offers. Didn’t know OT was so data driven and I am really impressed with how it is used to track progress and curate each person’s plan. They really prioritize your experience if you’re new or a beginner with their class so definitely recommend!”

“I joined Orangetheory Berkeley in Oct 2022 and have been a regular since. As I’m older, I wasn’t sure initially if this would be a good fit. I discovered all ages are welcome! I like the inclusive, friendly, helpful vibe from the manager Van, to the front desk staff, to the coaches. The coaches also invite us to let them know anytime if we need adjustments to any part of the workout. We are invited to both challenge and pace ourselves. While all the coaches I’ve experienced are good, my current favorite classes are coached by Jazon and Noah.”
“First time training here and it was the perfect hour HIIT type class. Alex, the owner, was incredibly welcoming, helpful, and encouraging throughout the class. The exercises were challenging, but accessible to all levels. The music was fire. Perfect sized facility for group classes and clean/organized space.
Highly recommend working out here, we will definitely be coming back when we are in Oakland! Thank you, Alex!!”

“I love this place! The main reason is that I like the instructors. They are always mindful of giving you alternative moves if you have any issues. It is clean and always at the perfect temperature no matter the weather outside which I appreciate. I don't like it when a place has their air conditioning blasted or their heater turned up. I also like the instructors choice of music. Always gets you in the mood to excercise.”

“This is the best gym we have ever been to. The staff are friendly and always willing to help. They are conscientious about keeping everything clean and well ventilated.
Clients are considerate of others and take turns on the exercise machines. They have personal training as well. Love this place.”
“Pinpoint provides the most personalized training I've ever experienced, and I've worked with a lot of trainers. I always feel so cared for and they're always teaching me new ways to improve my training. I've learned so much about how to strengthen my body that I'm literally a brand new woman!!! Thanks Pinpoint!!”

“If you're thinking about joining a gym for a fantastic workout and motivating community, stop reading and go sign up with 9Round now!
-- The location is so convenient; parking has never been an issue.
-- The circuit-format is just perfect: no class times, just come in when it's good for you.
-- Workouts are 30 minutes, and that flies by.
-- Great for anyone new to kickboxing cardio (easy, fun!) with opportunity to build on those skills as you go.
-- All the trainers are great, giving notes on form and encouraging you to push yourself when they know you can. (Dave is a rockstar!)
9Round kicks all the excuses out! I've been going for 6+ months now and will keep coming back.”
“There are certain places you walk into where people are simply doing a job — and then there are places like Orangetheory Emeryville, where the staff genuinely make you feel seen, welcomed, and cared about.
The entire team has created an environment that is positive, motivating, and incredibly supportive. Every coach and staff member brings energy, encouragement, and professionalism that makes it feel less like a gym and more like a community.
After going through a serious head injury, getting back into a routine and rebuilding confidence was not easy. During one of the hardest periods of my life, Orangetheory Emeryville became one of the few consistently positive parts of my week. The encouragement and kindness from the staff helped me more than they probably realize.
I’m truly grateful for everything this team does and the atmosphere they’ve created. It makes a difference.”

“I've been going to Ownit RX for almost 6 months now after not lifting for several years, and it has been fantastic so far. Fabien does a great job of programming challenging, but modifiable classes and always keeps the group entertained during classes. All of the classes have been relatively small, which means that it's been really easy to ask questions about how to do an exercise or get a form check.
Fabien has been a wealth of knowledge on exercises and has helped me set up a small rehab program for a hamstring injury that I picked up a few months ago. It got me healthy again so quickly.
I'm looking forward to seeing what progress I make over the next few months and also working out with all of my neighbors”

“The community is supportive and the classes are great! Equipment and gym in good condition. Challenging cross-fit workouts where you can always scale up/down to your activity levels.
But the membership management is poor. I opted out after the first month trial for health reasons. They charged me for month 2, then processed a refund. Fast forward to month 3 and they’re still charging me. I’ve asked for a refund but no response after a day so I’m resorting to a review to seek attention and encourage the team to implement a modern (self-serve + automatic) way for users to opt out and as a consistent and correct source of membership status.
Edited- thank you Tom for the prompt follow up, revising my rating upwards. Missing the final star for perceived value for money, it’s on the pricier side so it may be harder to derive the full value, but to each their own.”

“Bliss has been a staple in my life since 2019, when I joined to add more movement, build strength, and de-stress. Before Bliss, I belonged to a larger gym chain that felt impersonal and intimidating. The people at Bliss work to provide an antithesis to stereotypical gyms; it’s a people-centered, supportive space that makes fitness welcoming and enjoyable!”

“A group of adults did open gym to celebrate a birthday, and we had a wonderful
time. What really made the experience great were the coaches, who did an orientation, did demos for certain moves upon request, and provided positive reinforcement. The facility is quite large, and activities were available despite the multiple birthday parties taking place. We will be back.”

“I’ve been going to flagship for a few weeks now after a brief hiatus from exercising. The workouts are challenging (and quite gruelling at times) but I’m enjoying them and settling nicely into the routines. Facilities and equipment are great and the coaches are fantastic - I really like their attention to form when doing lifts as well as targeted dynamic stretching before the workout starts.
I’d love for some time to be baked in for stretching/cool down out at the end of classes as I usually have to run on the hour.
Generally, it’s a great gym with great people (and doggos) and would recommend it to anyone!!”

“Get Bent is my favorite gym in the East Bay! The coaches/owners Jason and Pela truly care about the community and your development as a lifter. They host the best events and have options for everyone including classes for beginners as well as private coaching for advanced powerlifters. Check it out!”
“Had my first class here at Barry's a few days ago. The staffers are informative and helpful, the space is clean and seemingly well-maintained; the class and the instructors were very clear with their coaching for the group class. The space felt very disorienting at first with low-light and loud sound, but once you get settled, it seems fine. My observation is around hygiene and cleanliness. During the class sessions, no one seems to be wiping down their equipments in between use, which seemed very gross especially during a sweat-inducing class. Perhaps there's more encouragement from the instructions to do so during the session?”

“Jamila and Bryan have been the most amazing gym staff. Honestly I’ve been to the Berkeley location and this by far has been the best and cleanest gym, the equipment is up to date and there is literally never a wait time for equipment. Even all the members are super friendly and it truly feels like a community in this place 10/10 recommend”

“OTF is a great workout, It’s balanced and adaptable, fun and challenging at the same time.
The Solano studio in particular is close to my heart: awesome staff, super friendly and always helpful. Shout out to coach Noah for always encouraging everyone and having the most energy early in the morning and also to coach Maddie for blasting the best music!”
