I've tried gyms before but never felt confident or comfortable. I knew I needed a coach or trainer to succeed, so on my search for a gym with a more personal touch, I found Elev8. After touring with Cierra and speaking with the owner, Kat, I felt reassured. Kat understood my goals and concerns, ensuring the gym wouldn't push me too hard too quickly and would support my desire for a gradual lifestyle change. I had a free training session with Julie, who evaluated my strength, mobility, and balance. Feeling ready, I committed to twice-weekly sessions with her, which I've maintained for four months now.My Trainer:Julie is empathetic, knowledgeable, and patient. She adjusts workouts based on my health, which fluctuates. This understanding approach eased my fears of appearing uncommitted due to inconsistent energy levels. During a sinus infection, Julie adjusted the training to avoid overexertion, providing relief and a great workout. Her attention to form has significantly improved my strength, balance, stamina, and mobility. Julie pushes me to reach my potential while being mindful and kind. You're the best Julie! Thank you!Atmosphere:The gym is welcoming, with friendly greetings from all employees. Community Connect nights with snacks and games offer a chance to meet others. Monthly check-ins with Darlene and Cierra feel like catching up with friends. Heran's cupping sessions have relieved muscle pain, and his friendly greetings make the gym feel like a second home. This supportive environment makes me feel like I truly belong. If you're looking for not only a supportive gym, but community as well, I would highly recommend Elev8!

One of the best decisions I made was signing up for a membership at Elev8 Performance. Soon after submitting a membership inquiry, Kat reached out to schedule an introductory call to discuss my fitness goals. I decided to sign up for 3-months of personal training.Kat set me up with Julie Hawk, who helped me reach my personal fitness goals in only 3 months!! With Julie's help I was able to lose over 15 pounds, while increasing my muscle growth and strength. Julie was able to challenge me and provided me with workout routines that kept things fun, while hitting my goals. Their program also helped me with my nutrition. They truly listen to their clients and will cater to your exact goals.This is by for the best gym I've been a member of. The gym staff is super supportive and listens to their members. The facility is top notch and has all the equipment you'll need to hit your fitness goals. It's been a great experience and I look forward to the growth of the gym.

Rarely write reviews but Elev8 and Bryant deserve a top notch review! Been to plenty of gyms and this is the only one where you have people come in to actually workout, be respectful of your space, re-rack weights and wipe down equipment. I love going to this gym and actually look forward to going to the gym.Bryant has been awesome, has helped me correct my form and I've been lifting so much better. He's a wealth of knowledge when it comes to proper lifting techniques, rehab exercises, stretches to alleviate tightness. Investing in this gym and working with Bryant for the past 1.5 years has been a great decision and I highly recommend him!I've also made some really good connections/friends at the gym. Hate to write this review because it's a hidden gem that I don't want to share with others haha!

I've been wanting to try out this gym and I'm glad I finally got myself to go! I've been seeing this gym pop up on my social media. It's worth the hype!!When I walked in, I immediately felt welcomed. The gym is modern, clean, and aesthetically pleasing. I love the small details they added (the plants, neon signs, all that jazz)I met Mark and he was able to give me a tour around the gym. There's a private sauna and cold plunge room! It's don't see that too often. I really like the idea of "private". I also noticed they have their own merch, a BMI machine, refreshments, etc. The equipment is also new. A solid 5/5. I can't believe they've been here for 7+ years! Lol.After the tour I hopped into a small group class with coach Bryant. It was challenging, but fun. He humbled me quick LOL. He's knowledgeable and you can definitely tell he's passionate about coaching. I enjoyed learning PROPER form. I can't tell you the amount of times I've jumped into a boot camp class or went to the gym just to get a good workout in-- boy...could I have been more efficient with my time.I had a wonderful experience. Good energy and good people to start the day with. I'll definitely be back.

Words simply can’t do justice how much I love this gym and the crew.After being in the market for a private gym for some time, I came across Elev8 and decided to pull the trigger on signing up.I have yet to have a bad experience with the facility, as the gym has all the equipment I could want. And it has been pleasant interacting with everyone that works there.

This is a great place to workout! I typically stay past closing time I can get a full workout in without interruption! While I am reluctant to make this place as popular as the 24 Hour Fitness and Planet Fitness type gyms, I would love to see this business thrive. An old time gym rat like myself enjoys working out here. It’s my sanctuary for peace and relaxation. No “influencers” to inadvertently include you in their “content creation.” If you are an influencer this is a great spot! “Joey Swoll” is not going to criticize your content if you are here when I workout. Lol!

I think this place is great ! I only use the cold plung and sauna but I got to look around and see how clean and organized it is they keep it updated for sure and love the open ware house doors as your working out and the staff are awesome and knowledgeable and if they don’t know the answers they will find the answer.

After 23 sessions I feel a difference in strength and mental wellbeing.There is more work to be done to get back to where I was 18 months ago. Having trained for five years and then all but stop was not a good move. I found ELEV8 online looking for fitness centers in the area. I was looking for something smaller than the big fitness centers, that can have to many people.The equipment in ELEV8 is vast and they appear to add new equipment at different intervals. The trainers do a great job staying on top of the individual’s they work with, both assisting on how to do new exercises and watching for incorrect movements to prevent injury.I feel I have made a great decision for my needs.A big shout out to my trainer Bryant and team ELEV8

They have plenty of great options for anyone. I signed up for the small group training and I’ve been seeing exactly the change I’m looking for. I love how warm and friendly the community is. Plus my trainer is amazing keeps me on my toes. But come try it out I recommend it if you want to see results.

I'm not sure if I will be pursuing a membership at your gym if the coach Nancy is still working at your facility. My girlfriend and I had a 9:45-10:15am sauna session and she will probably deny that she knocked several times extremely hard on the door and caused an entire scene at the gym because she said someone had an appointment at 10am in which that would be a mistake on the gyms schedule. She proceeded with a very nasty look of disgust when we left out of the sauna as everyone looked at us because she basically embarrassed us when leaving. She has no sense of professionalism and I would not recommend this gym to anyone if she is still working there.

I lived in Costa Mesa for 9 years and I’ve been to a few gyms before Elev8. Let me tell you that I wish I would’ve found this gym sooner! The staff just made me feel welcomed, and the members did too! Everyone is just so friendly!! Not only that the gym is always clean and I love the equipment! I recently moved to LA and although I can’t be there more than 3 days a week I’m happy to be there the days that I can! The best gym in all of OC!

The best quality equipment. Most friendly and knowledgeable staff. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Best part is this place is super clean! There is a team going around the gym working all day so it stays even more sanitary. I would recommend this gym to anybody wanting to get serious about their fitness goals.

my initial impression of the gym was nice, it's cozy, secured by fob, clean, and being renovated and the staff was friendly. but sadly, I've been trying to work with Trevor to schedule small group training 3x a week at 5pm but strangely this gym only offers large group training in the evening time slots when im a beginner and need closer attention than i would receive in a large group. you'd think they'd be able to find 1-2 clients willing to join that time slot with me pretty easily but even though their website calendar says "new slots added as needed" and even after me personally babysitting my inquiry several times a week they still never got back to me about my request. what a shame, this location was right by my work on the way home. I will take my business elsewhere.
