“I’m brand new to Jiu-Jitsu, and walking into a gym for the first time was pretty intimidating. But from day one at New Ground, the entire process felt smooth, inviting, and genuinely fun. The coaches are very patient, clear, and always open to questions. They create an environment where you can ask anything and never feel “too new” or out of place.
Very quickly, I realized the coaches treat every student the same, no matter your rank or experience level. Whether you are brand new like me or have been training for years, they give you the same respect, attention, and encouragement. There is never a sense of superiority or arrogance, just a genuine desire to help everyone improve and learn.
The other students are a testament to the atmosphere the coaches have built. Everyone I have trained with has been friendly, supportive, and quick to offer help.
If you are considering starting no-gi BJJ but feel nervous or unsure, New Ground is the place to take that first step.”
“I love the friendliness and accessibility of this gym! Open 24-7 and easy parking - tough to find around here. The coaches are knowledgeable and really down-to-earth, so the gym has a fun atmosphere but is also a place where you can get hard workouts in. Fully equipped. So glad I found it :)”

“Just took my first class here and loved it! I've been searching for CrossFit gyms all over the valley, and though this is primarily a weightlifting gym, they have full body workouts as well. Great neighborhood, easy parking, and lovely instructors. I signed up to become a regular member!”
“I was in LA for a few weeks and was looking to stay active during the holidays, and I found so much more than that at Dragonfly.
All the instructors were great. Shoutout to Michelle, Troy, and Jess who I took the most classes with. Michelle’s spin and TRX classes were engaging with upbeat playlists and good energy. Troy pushed me in his strength classes but always with a smile, which helped me get stronger while having fun. Jess had the perfect balance of challenge and support, sprinkling each class with words of wisdom and encouragement. Each time I left the studio, I felt stronger and more grounded than I did when I walked in.
On top of all of that, the people in classes were really kind. There was no sense of competition or comparison, everyone is trying to be better and support each other.
That’s what makes Dragonfly so special. There's a positive and life-affirming energy that feels good. Jess’ purpose and passion for the studio is palpable, and the community that has grown there has been built on that foundation. I’ve trained a lot of gyms with great instructors, but not every place has that special sauce that sets it apart.
Thank you to everyone at Dragonfly who welcomed me in for a short time, and see you next time I pass through LA!”
“I joined this gym a few months ago and it's really become a safe space to get healthy and fit again. It's not big or flashy but has the right equipment to get the job done. Risky does a great job of maintaining a friendly and respectful gym experience for all by the members he attracts. No bros slamming weights or annoying you while you're trying to get a workout in. My one complaint is that the gym is pretty warm, worried about summer heat in the valley.”
“I really love this place, exactly what I was looking for in terms of a stretch class that incorporates the reformer. The reformers here are very nice and Natalia brings a calm vibe to the class.”

“I really enjoyed going to this location. At first, I came here because they have the newer treadmills, and the Burbank location does not. They are much more comfortable on your joints. But I’ve also really enjoyed the instructors and staff here. They are all really great and provide a fun workout. Definitely recommend!”

“What I appreciated most is Michael’s attention to detail when explaining the importance of learning the right form and movement during an exercise. He wasn’t interested in selling me his classes or personalized one-on-one session; just gave me good information and encouragement. He has remained helpful although he recommended a gym closer to my home. 10/10”
“Best neighborhood gym. The owner sets the tone of it being a wonderful community of ppl and dogs who are like family to me! Have all the necessary equipment and can train anything along with great expertise of professionals working here.”
“Great place. Been a member for a few months, come in three times a week and it is always a positive experience. Good selection of equipment and friendly folks. Happy to support high quality local businesses.”
“This is by far my favorite gym in the area. STAFF is always so welcoming, the machines are ready to use, weights are clean, sauna and steam are always good to go and there's enough equipment for everyone to use even when it's peak hours.
Whether it's highly athletic training or just coming in to get a lil sweat, this gym is solid. Don't sleep on it .”

“F45 is the best! Not only is it a quick, amazing workout but there’s a tremendous community of people involved that truly feel like a second family. Not just the other participants but the trainers as well. Special shout out to Malikah! She will get the most out of you while staying so positive and upbeat. Cant recommend this place enough”
