“The best Zumba place ever. Areli is an incredible person who transmits her good energy to you. She makes you feel welcome and you feel her good vibes. If you are looking to improve your lifestyle and change your habits for a healthier life, this is the place to start.”

“I visited Planet Fitness today while I was still unsure whether I should get a membership or not. Nick Hooper, the club manager, greeted me and completely changed my experience.

The conversation with him helped me better understand my fitness goals, and I realized that getting a membership was the right decision for me. I also learned that Nick has a background in fitness training, and his knowledge and advice really influenced my decision.

He was very kind and took the time to show me how to use some of the equipment I had no idea how to operate since this was my first time ever visiting a gym. Nick also explained to me why stretching is important and how it affects our bodies.

One more thing I wanted to mention — a few days before visiting, I looked at the Planet Fitness pictures on Google Maps and wasn’t sure about the pink equipment I saw. However, when I arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to see that the gym had been updated and the equipment was no longer pink. I would recommend updating the pictures online because the gym looks much better in person now.

Overall, I had a very positive first experience. Thank you, Nick, for being so helpful and welcoming!

“G6 Performance is the best gym in Sacramento! The trainers have all been very friendly and knowledgeable, and I've already noticed my athletic abilities improving with their coaching. They have been very good about tailoring workouts to my specific needs, ability level, and goals. G6 has state of the art amenities and with Lakas physical therapy in the building, it can really be your one stop shop for sports performance training, prehab, or PT rehab. I can't recommend G6 enough!”

“I was VERY pleased with my experience at LifeSpa! The atmosphere is very classy and everyone I came across was genuinely kind.

I got an amazing hydrafacial with Jennifer. I can't recommend going to her more than I do! She is very knowledgeable, kind, does a great job and made me feel extremely comfortable.

My skin looks SO MUCH better after receiving the hydrafacial. I will definitely start getting them regularly!

I really can't recommend trying out this place more than I do; Absolutely wonderful!”

“This is truly an addictive, functional, and challenging workout that truly can change your body without being brutal on your joints. The coaches are the best - Grace is terrific at 6 am when I’m half asleep but she gets me motivated to do my best and start the day with ?”

“Megaformer workouts are so humbling yet so exhilarating! And InstaPhysique is the place to explore it -- the coaches are amazing! I appreciate seeing the fellow coaches taking classes along with members and support each other in their perspective sessions. So appreciate the way Coach Sarah instilling such positivity in her class -- giving you that extra dose of endurance to finish the class strong! Coach Kayla has been so attentive and understanding in offering modification so I can participate the workout safely! Coach Kristin's hands-on corrections help me so much in completing the sets with accuracy. And Coach Rosslyn's calming voice + live demo really help me pull through the challenging sessions. Highly recommend everyone to try it, and take classes with as many coaches as you can!”

“I'm a lover, not a fighter, but boy do I love this fight gym. And it's not just a fight gym (tho as of this writing we are top ranking PMT west adult) - it's an all-around great place to train. Coach Anthony and Coach Marcos have your BACK whether or not you're trying to compete or simply improve your skills. There's also a strength and conditioning program led by Coach Patrick who's extremely knowledgable about the smart way to train - and will push you to reach your goals. My job is pretty demanding, so it's hard for me to make classes consistently - but the morning and evening options are nice. Muay Thai, BJJ, MMA, S&C, big space, a # of membership options, great coaches, and thoughtful owners - like I said, an all-around great place to train.”

“One of the best run CrossFit gyms I’ve ever been to. I have visited there several times on class pass, but I’m thinking of joining separately because of how clean it is and how many class time options they have. Every coach has been really personable and the attendees are all friendly.”

“My first time ever walking into any type of gym atmosphere. I was greeted and accepted immediately felt welcomed. The entire experience was amazing from the guidance from staff and the patience given in understanding the routine and the teaching along the way was outstanding. I will be joining and enjoying my journey back to myself again. Can't wait till my next class. P.S. I'm turning 50yrs old so anyone can't start there journey I am.
Whooohhoooooo!!!!!!!”

“In the spring of 2024, shortly after joining Orangetheory, I moved and the Rocklin studio became my home studio. I quickly went from going 1-2 times a week to 3-4, sometimes 5 times a week. I was never one to be excited to workout but the Rocklin staff makes it fun and exciting to come back day after day. The front desk staff is friendly and helpful, and they always have fun opportunities to challenge yourself and win prizes. The coaches are very supportive in class; they push you when you need a push, but always support you and celebrate your wins with you. I never thought I would look forward to going to the gym every day, but I truly do!”

“A review for the beginners: last September, I turned 30 and made the choice to finally become “a fitness person” despite having zero experience, major self confidence issues, and a lack of discipline.

I texted the number on PPF’s website and discovered through quick exchanges that the Transformation Series was a thing, and that it might be the thing for me: they were right.

3x/week for 12 weeks. I went to my first class and my nerves made me feel as if I had made a mistake in signing up. Fast forward to today, where I just completed the Transformation Series for the second time. Can’t help but look back and be grateful for my past self for taking the chance.

If you’re looking to learn proper form, and find accountability through a set schedule and coaching, I can’t recommend this series enough. In addition to those perks, you’ll find community within your crew, and, in my case, a surprising sense of purpose.

Thanks PPF! 🩷”

“Decided to make an investment in myself a month ago and I’m already feeling stronger and confident. Super excited to see what this next year has in store for me!
Thank you coaches for the extra moto!!”

“I absolutely love P2O. I attend their heated classes Saturday mornings, and I look forward to them every single weekend. The instructors are amazing && the vibes are immaculate. I wish I lived closer so I could attend more classes.”

“I have never loved a gym more than I love going & working out at OTF! The coaches are all so motivating & truly get to know you. They are always doing challenges & fun themes to keep you having fun & to challenge yourself. I love that there are no phones allowed in the gym because the goal is to have your full attention to focusing on yourself! Every workout you will feel the burn & look forward to the next class!”

“Best gym equipment in Sacramento! Best place to challenge yourself both physically and mentally, if you're just gym strong, you'll find a whole new level you didn't know there was. Great atmosphere, most gym members are great, equipment is top notch and the owner is always improving. Can't wait to train here again!”

“I can't recommend this gym enough. Coach T is an exceptional teacher, super knowledgeable, who cultivates an energetic, positive, and genuinely inspiring environment. I walked in as a complete beginner to strength training, intimidated by how fit and motivated everyone seemed, but that same energy quickly rubbed off on me.
Coach Dom has been incredibly attentive, especially when it came to my shoulder injury. They helped me find alternative upper body movements to reduce the load and keep me training safely without missing out. After just three weeks, I'm already feeling my muscles getting firmer and I'm learning proper form on everything. Everyone has gone out of their way to introduce themselves and make me feel welcome. Members openly share their own journeys — like one guy who told me he needed a strap for pull-ups when he started and now does multiple chin-ups / pull ups unassisted. That kind of encouragement, from staff and members alike, makes this an inclusive space where hard work is genuinely celebrated. Highly recommend, whether you're a beginner or experienced.”

“CycleLife is absolutely incredible!! As a new first-time mom, I was looking for a place to work out with an option for childcare and I’ve been so incredibly grateful to have found this studio!! The instructors and childcare staff go above and beyond and have made me (and my daughter) feel so welcomed! Plus, the workouts are fantastic!! I love how they incorporate weights and different class formats, like spin, core, and kettlebells. The studio is super clean and the class times are great. Can’t recommend CycleLife enough!!”

“Great space with friendly coaching staff and welcoming members. I rated 4/5 mainly due to some class management and coaching opportunities: the workout brief was hard to hear over side conversations, equipment setup wasn’t clearly explained, and there weren't any individual cues or safety checks for members that needed them, myself included. That being said, I'd definitely drop in again!”

“I had a chance to drop in here while I was in town for work, and it was a great experience from start to finish. I reached out ahead of time, and they immediately got me plugged into their morning class the following day, which made everything super easy.

When I arrived, I was blown away by how massive the space was, but also how clean and meticulously well-maintained both the facility and equipment were. The workout programming was excellent, and kudos to Coach Sean for running such a great class.

The members were incredibly friendly as well—they even gave me a breakfast recommendation before I left, which was a nice touch.

I would definitely recommend this spot if you’re dropping in while traveling through town or if you’re looking to give CrossFit a try. It’s a great place to stop in and see what it’s all about. I hope to make it back here next time I’m in town.”

“I love going to this location. There are several great studios in the area, but when I decided to become a permanent member, I had to choose which one to make my home studio (I live about equally distant to 3), and for me it was an easy choice to select Midtown. The level of dedication that HC Christina and all of the other coaches and front desk staff commit to making this a positive experience for every single member is unlike anything I've seen at any other gym, OTF or otherwise. Even before I was a full member, there were always little personal touches that showed they saw me and were paying attention, not only to my tendencies in class but also my interests outside of the gym. It made me feel like a true member of the community and not just someone they were trying to convert to a higher membership to meet a sales goal. Keep up the amazing work, OTF midtown!”

“I was worried I wouldn’t be able to do it because of a shoulder replacement, but all the trainers have been great about giving me any modifications needed. Great community, very motivating trainers! Love it!!”

“The best gym in the area. The coaches and members are warm friendly and helpful for newbies like me. Safe and clean. Class hours are perfect and open daily. Second to none. Bar none.”

“Had my first class today. It was really great!! Brandon was the instructor and he was very kind and friendly. I definitely felt out of shape, but Brandon was very supportive and so were other folks who were there to train as well. 😊❤💪”

“I love this studio. Prices are fair, class times are helpful and make yoga accessible. All instructors are phenomenal and do an excellent job of incorporating spiritual growth into practices. Heidi is a gem and has a beautiful vision.”

“10/10 would recommend - being an out of towner, it is always nice finding a gym that makes you feel like you've been there before. The owners, Heather and Bean were amazing and so nice and encouraging. I've taken 2 different classes here so far. One a bootcamp class with Jen- holy moly great workout and a mix of weights and cardio, the class went quickly, which is always great. The second one was a yoga class with Andi, super awesome recovery for the day after the bootcamp class - I really enjoy the different and dynamic flow that was taught. Looking forward to the next time I am in town, trying some different classes.”

“I signed up for Orangetheory Arden-Arcade back in January 2025 and it’s been amazing ever since. Every coach here is awesome—from my very first class with Kassidy (even though I usually only catch her on Saturdays!) to my regulars, Coach Kim and Coach Caleb, who always bring the heat and push us to get better. Shoutout to Coach Michael too—even though he’s no longer at this location, he crushed the private class he ran for my company.

This place genuinely boosts my mood every time I walk in. I’ve never had a bad experience here. If you’re thinking about joining OTF and live nearby, do yourself a favor and check out this location. You will feel the difference—in your energy, mood, and overall health.

Now let’s crush the the Marathon Challenge—WOOOOOO!! ???”

“I absolutely love Ironmile ! From day one, it felt like a family. The coaches are incredibly supportive, helping everyone—no matter their fitness level—achieve their personal goals. They provide tailored guidance and ensure proper form, making each workout both challenging and safe.

The sense of community here is amazing. Members cheer each other on, creating an uplifting atmosphere that makes every workout enjoyable. If you’re looking for a place to get fit while being part of a caring, motivating environment, I highly recommend Ironmile. You won’t regret joining this fantastic community!”

“Love it! The gym is fantastic and has many time slots available to fit anyone's needs. The workouts are great and make you better with your fitness. The coaches are top notch.”

“Went back today. Loved the workout. I'll keep coming 1x per week. Bike parking right out front.

1st visit: Tried kickboxing on classpass today for the first time. Fun! Rachel was welcoming, explained all the moves quickly, and moved me through the circuit workout. There's a reasonable variety to what you can do for your 30 min workout --easy, medium or difficult. Felt incredible kicking and punching the bags! I'll be back.”

“Toured the gym today, and the staff were so accommodating. The gym is clean, well maintained, and for the size is very well stocked. I found the entire experience to be smooth and convenient. If you need a good local gym, come here!”
