“Coach Maya had the class super motivated and was so welcoming for this newcomer. Workout was so amazing that I came back the next day (though I was super sore). Bonus points because her workout soundtrack took me back...80s baby here. Purchased 30 classes. See you there!”

“I’ve been training at Allegiate for the past 2.5 years, and it has truly been one of the best investments I’ve ever made in my health, and I don't say that lightly.

Before Allegiate, my strength training experience was basically nonexistent. I mostly relied on Pilates and long walks. I always wanted to build muscle and get stronger, but I had no idea where to start. Programming workouts, figuring out exercises, sets, reps..it all felt overwhelming and intimidating.

A friend who works in athletics at UCLA recommended Allegiate, so I decided to give it a try. I started with personal training for the first 6 months..then moved into Strength Class, and after about a year of Strength Class, I moved into the advanced Team Class.

The progress I’ve made since then has honestly been life-changing. When I started, I couldn’t do a single pull-up. Now I can do four. I struggled to do 1-2 push-ups, now I can do 10+. I couldn’t deadlift even half my bodyweight, and now I’m lifting 1.7x my bodyweight. Seeing those kinds of gains over time has completely changed how confident and capable I feel.

What sets Allegiate apart, especially in LA, is that it’s not flashy or focused on aesthetics or “influencer” culture. It’s about the fundamentals: smart programming, proper form, and getting stronger in a sustainable way. You don’t have to figure anything out on your own. You just show up, follow the program, and get coached.

The coaching is incredible. Every coach knows you by name, explains the “why” behind what you’re doing, and makes strength training approachable instead of intimidating. I’ve learned so much, and I’ve built real relationships here, people I call my friends. The community is just as special. Classes feel like training with the same group of people each week..it’s supportive, consistent, and feels more like a team than a typical gym.

Allegiate taught me that fitness doesn’t have to be complicated..stick to the basics, stay consistent, and results come. I’m stronger than I’ve ever been, and I can’t recommend this place enough.”

“I found AMP about 7 months ago and genuinely couldn’t love this place more. The community of people who come in every single day and just get after it has been truly inspiring, especially in a world filled with people are always looking for short cuts. You will be pushed here no doubt, I get humbled every single time I step through the doors (in the best way). I couldn’t recommend AMP more for those who want a community based around genuine desire to improve as people and as athletes.”

“Oak Park LA is the gym I’ve been looking for my entire life. I’ve been a member for 1.5 years and can’t speak highly enough about the quality of the coaches, programming, and facility. I’d been a member at 2-3 other CrossFit gyms in other cities and kept getting injured due to improper form and going too hard too often. Oak Park LA coaches have helped me improve on the fundamentals, identify opportunities for individualized growth, and discern when to push myself versus taking it easy. The intentionality + philosophy behind the coaching is unparalleled and I’m grateful to be a part of the community.

The sauna + cold plunge is also a huge perk of being a member here :)

If you’re looking for intentional growth as an athlete and human Oak Park LA is the gym for you.”

“Mikey teaches thoughtful, thought-out, inspiring flows mixing traditional with new. His classes are challenging and fun, mindful and creative. I've tried vinyasa flow classes with multiple instructors at this studio and Mikey's classes are the most satisfying. A++ to Mikey! Thank you.”

“Morgan is a super cool, high energy, knowledgeable and fun instructor. Other male instructor I can’t remember the name of was as well. Their machines are superior than other places I’ve been on Classpass. Definitely more challenging and effective.”

“It wasn’t until becoming a member at Basecamp that I felt a true sense of community and belonging in Santa Monica. A friend brought me to my first class about 2.5 years ago — the coaches, studio managers and friends in class keep me coming back every day!”

“I have loved coming to the Santa Monica Studio! The sessions are well organized, the studio is clean, and the trainers are all very friendly and encouraging. Their membership pricing is more than reasonable with multiple convenient options, which is part of the reason I also chose Santa Monica as my first F45 studio. There is also convenient parking — including free street parking just a few blocks away. Would absolutely recommend!”

“Precious outdoor space with great BoHo vibes attached to the Gym, offering a sauna and cold plunge with what benches and grassy area to stretch out and relax. Absolutely lovely venue excited to check out the other locations.”

“Rudy and Jenny are the heart and soul of the place. They're incredibly knowledgeable, but it’s their warmth, intuition, and encouragement that really set them apart. Every workout feels personal—like it’s designed just for you, your body, and where you’re at.

I actually look forward to working out. I feel stronger, I move better, and I just feel better overall.

. I always leave feeling happy, energized , and uplifted.”

“One of the best workouts in Santa Monica. Also easily one of my favorites. Everyone you’ll encounter at Gloveworx is amazing.I absolutely recommend this place to anyone regardless of your fitness level. Class sizes are small so you won’t get lost in the shuffle. They’re also great at catering the workout to each individual.”

“I train at Iron Gym Santa Monica with Coach Stew, and it’s been a great experience. The equipment is excellent — plenty of quality weights and cardio machines. One of the biggest perks is the towels and showers, which makes it super convenient when I need to squeeze in a workout and race off to work afterward. The front desk is consistently friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend!”

“The club where I primarily work out was recently purchased by the Bay club. As such, I decided to try the Santa Monica location. There is tons of parking and they validate for 3 hours which is more than enough time. It's located in the Water Garden which is a very nice building and location in Santa Monica. The space is enormous (almost too big).
There is no shortage of weights, treadmills, ellipticals etc, you name it and it's there. It's a huge expansive space with what seems to be modern equipment.
The staff are always very nice and helpful. The changing room is also big and kept clean.
If you're looking for a no-frills gym on the west side, I'd highly recommend it.”

“This gym has gotten way better since the new Santa Monica location opened down the road. It's far less crowded now, especially during January rush. It's also one of the more interesting locations I've been to as far as layout across Boston, NYC and SoCal.”
