Fitness & Gyms in Irvine, CA

“My husband and I were super impressed when we first visited Fitness on Fire! It all started with a great welcome from Brenda who was super friendly as she showed us around the gym. Then we attended Ritchie’s class and he brought great enthusiasm and energy. Christie was amazing in answering my many questions and she helped me sign up! I am training for my first Spartan race and this gym has all the equipment needed to practice for the obstacles! The introductory package is a great offer and I’m enjoying every bit of it! 😀😀”

“9round is an amazing experience to try hands on!  The staff are extremely kind, and the environment is really friendly.  The trainers always give tips if they notice something off about your form. After starting just a year ago, I've gotten way stronger and learned a bunch of techniques.  Overall, I would rate this place a 10/10.”

“Had a great first class at OrangeTheory Irvine today! Brendan (or Brandon? Sorry for misremembering if I spelled this wrong!) was super welcoming when I first came in the door. He was really patient and helpful, and checked on me midway through my class. Couldn’t have asked for a better intro to the workout! The instructor was motivating and was really good about going around the class and helping with form, which doesn’t always happen in workout classes I’ve been to- so this was really welcome! Also loved the music. A really nice and supportive environment with the other students in class too. Awesome studio!”

“My daughter is a competitive athlete, and this gym has been fantastic for her conditioning and strength training. Jon is very accommodating and does a great job understanding your needs and recommending the right training plan. Our trainer Zuri is amazing he is knowledgeable, supportive, and really understands how to train young athletes. Highly recommend this gym for youth athletes!”

“Choosing to start CrossFit here was absolutely ✨definitely ✨the right decision for me.
I’ve had such a great experience at this gym. The coaches are professional, detail-oriented, and truly knowledgeable. They focus on proper technique, make sure you’re moving safely, and still know how to push you in a way that feels encouraging rather than intimidating. This place has helped me build strength and consistency in ways I never thought were possible.

And the whole environment is also incredibly friendly and welcoming. Everyone is supportive and motivating, which makes even the hardest workouts feel rewarding.

Even on the harder days, I always leave feeling stronger and glad I showed up. That feeling is what keeps me coming back. This community has made the whole experience even better.”

“I started at 9Round back in June with basically no kickboxing experience. It has been a very welcoming environment.Most of my workouts have been guided by trainer Zeus. He has been great at showing patience when teaching me new things and keeping me motivated throughout the workout.When it comes to the workouts, they are always fresh as every day is a different set of exercises. I'm glad I made the decision to start and always look forward to the workouts!”

Happy 7-year anniversary ? to Hamabe Dojo ?”

“This is why I love FitCo Gym and training with Sasa:

The gym itself is awesome. They just moved to a new space that is 2.5x bigger than their old space and it is beautiful and a joy to work out in. There are so many different, high quality machines that are pristine condition and with the larger space they're even adding more to elevate the experience. Sasa owns the gym so the only clients using the gym are his or the clients of his two other trainers. At FitCo you aren't going to a personal trainer who rents out a space that is shared by a bunch of other trainers and their clients fighting for machines. It is a truly a private training experience. Most of the time during my sessions I am the only one there training. It is also a very welcoming and inclusive environment. No intimidation or judgment here whatsoever.

I was looking for a personal trainer who focused on just strength training for that's what I found here. 60 minutes of pure strength training. I prefer to do my cardio sessions separately and use my gym time to focus on strength alone.

I feel like finding the right trainer is kind of like finding the right therapist, lol. They can have all the credentials in the world but if the relationship doesn't fit it just doesn't. That being said, Sasa is a great trainer and a I found to be a great fit for me. He is personable, knowledgable, motivating and encouraging. He gives me feedback on my form when needed and answers all of my questions when I want to pick his brain about health or fitness related topics. He understands that life gets in the way sometimes and doesn't yell at you if you skip a workout or eat a not so healthy meal once in awhile. I train with Sasa twice a week and really love his programming. It's well structured, well thought out and makes a lot of sense in terms of reaching what my stated goals are. Everything is tracked through an app and it's easy to see how you're progressing with it. He has even provided me with two at home workout programs each week in addition to our gym sessions since I want to strength train 4x/week.

Considering the private sessions, the training knowledge, the top notch gym and additional home workout programs he provides that are personally tailored to my goals, I feel that Sasa and FitCo really are a cut above a lot of personal trainers and gyms in the area. Investing in your health at FitCo is a great value both physically and financially. I'm very happy here and look forward to my workouts every time.”

“Refreshing and creamy Daydreamer was a nice smoothie from here. Nice little snacks to go are here as well. Once I come around again I'm trying other smoothies for sure.”

“I loooove this studio! I’m genuinely so happy I found S1L. The staff and teachers are not only incredibly kind, but also super supportive and talented. The energy in this place is unmatched, it feels like a second home where you’re free to grow, express yourself, and just dance your heart out. The classes are fun, empowering, and challenging in the best way. I always leave feeling more confident, connected, and alive. Thank you, S1L, for creating such a powerful space for dancers of all levels. Can’t wait for my next class ?”

“Best Sunday body pump and yoga classes! Instructor Shannon is the best! I have had great workouts every time with her since I found out these 2 classes next to each other. She is very motivating and making tough workouts fun and enjoyable. Will follow her forever! She rocks!”

“The best gym by far, not just for the clean and well maintained facilities but this is the most friendly and respectful staff. All of them are welcoming and made me feel very comfortable. Specially Mason the personal trainer, don’t let his young age fool you, He is knowledgeable and will help you achieve your goals no doubt. Austin has being the kindest person, even on the phone and by email He made sure the whole experience is smooth and professional. Thank you all.”

“As soon as you Make the commitment to yourself to continue taking care of yourself and improving your fitness by joining this gym, see Tammy Smith. She is outstanding professional encouraging, mindful knowledgeable experienced. You can see her just once, which is free and you can see her after that if you want some assistance with your personal program further. You can see her if you’re just beginning, we can see her if you are advanced. This gym is unmatched. It is not perfect. It never will be. and it is outstanding. See Tammy Smith you won’t regret it.”

“This is an awesome gym! The LA Fitness (Irvine - Jamboree) is beautiful, and the personnel there are the most helpful and accommodating as can be. Farid (General Manager) and Myrna (Operations Manager) are so helpful, friendly, and professional... They are the best!!!!”

“I’ve also been taking Pilates classes with Wendy L., and she is an excellent instructor. She is professional, knowledgeable, and supportive. Wendy pays attention to proper form and creates a welcoming environment for everyone. I highly recommend her classes to anyone looking to improve strength, flexibility, and overall fitness.”

“Everything about the gym is nice. You get what you pay for. I dont believe there is anything spectacular but its a great location and friendly staff. If you want private lessons, Max is really polite and knowledgeable on how to burn weight off and gain muscle.”

“Matin is the guy you want to talk to. Super chill, honest, and knows his stuff. He didn’t try to push anything on me, just helped me figure out what worked best and made the whole process easy. You can tell he actually cares and isn’t just trying to close a sale. Ask for Matin — you won’t regret it.”
