Burn Fitness - Santa Monica (CA)

Omar Galal This gym has been changing the game for years now. Great people, great energy. Leyon is the man, truly one of kind guy. Highly suggest this gym to everyone.

Char To Cute small gym thats beginner friendly and has a lot of neat amenities like massage chair and now a washing machine. Its small but it has the perfect machines that I want to help core muscles and cardio. I really appreciate that the staff you see once in a while are great and the place is always clean

Yamit Florentin A friend of mine told me about Solidcore after I mentioned it to her, I noticed they were on ClassPass. She said she saw a change in her body and that the workouts at Solidcore made her much stronger. On ClassPass, one session here cost me 14 credits (!), so Im guessing they are highly recommended and requested by the fitness community. I scheduled a session for Sunday at 8 a.m. with Anthony. This wasn’t the beginner class, but still, I could do most of the movements with Anthony helping me adjust the Pilates reformer machine. He mentioned that they offer a beginner class where the instructor cues the breaks, the lights are on, and they take it slow. Even if you are in good shape, you will find Solidcore workouts to be challenging. I can definitely see how it could make your muscles stronger, toned, and defined. Overall, it was a great experience, Anthony was motivating and very helpful. He is new to the studio, so give him a try! Studio: Cubbies ✔️ Filtered water ✔️ Water bottles/ drinks for sale ✔️ Bathrooms ✔️ No showers ❌ Street parking (by the meters).

Sheri Rose-McCashin, LMFT A pleasure to train at the Bay Club Santa Monica. Diana P. is the manager and has made it an exceptional place to train. She is a knowledgeable trainer herself as well as a hands on administrator in the fitness business for many years.I have witnessed her immediate responsiveness to members and ability to competently address their needs. The club itself provides a wonderful, clean, space with amenities. I am glad to have found this gym after the closure of the Palisades Bay Club. 1/18/2025

Jenelle Bossett I came to Drive Cardio expecting an ordinary workout. From the Groupon and Yelp reviews I figured this place was over-hyped and too good to be true....OH BOY was I wrong! Drive has easily become one of my favorite workout destinations. The location is amazing, literally a walk from the beach off PCH. My drive to and from is always a pleasure, so relaxing and tranquil. Parking is a breeze. They have a lot with ample of space and theres even metered parking on the street that rarely gets packed. Every single workout is different. Ive gone over 10 times and can honestly say Ive never experience redundancy and they always provide a challenging but rewarding class. Ive been to 4 different instructors (Damien, Bonnie, Thierno, and Simon) all amazing but they all have different teaching styles. They all have high energy and make each workout challenging but fun. The classes are unlike any other Ive attended. They are both intimate yet engaging. You may start off with a treadmill warm up and move to core or strength training. Each class differs in routine so you are never bored. After a week I could really tell my stamina increased from the treadmill alone. And of course each and every class I sweated my balls off but loved the feeling of accomplishment after. The staff here is great and its a small gym so its easy to feel right at home here. Theres really nothing I would change about this place. If you are looking for the intimate setting similar to a personal trainer I would say come here. You really do get that individualized training in a group setting because they keep the class size pretty small. But it is pricey. Its certain worth the price if you can afford it, but if you have to to live off of Top Ramen and sale a kidney to pay for it then you might want to get the 20 class pack Groupon. Free lockers are a plus and they also offer face towels to wipe off all those calories you are sure to burn. I absolutely adore this place!

Bethany Londyn Ive been working with Aaron for multiple months now and hes completely unleveled not only my body but my mind with his vestibular exercises and more. His workouts are mind blowing. Like a physical therapist meets trainer meets emdr practitioner. Check him out!

Kim Buehlmann This was my first time at the Row House and I already can’t wait to go again!! Everyone there, coaches and class goers alike, were SO nice, welcoming, and friendly. I did a Thursday night row with Coach Jackson where we spent the whole time on the erg (no weights/floor work) who kept us HYPE the whole time. The music, lighting, and singing were well worth the trip to Santa Monica. I sweat my butt off but had the best time doing it!!!

Jillian Farren I’ve been a member of amp association for over a year now and it has been the best decision I’ve ever made! I moved to LA a year prior and found it hard to meet new people. Once I moved closer to Santa Monica, I searched for gyms that had a welcoming atmosphere, community building events, top tier coaching, accountability and I’ve found all those things in amp. The owners Alex and Ahnna also make it a point to know every member that joins the gym, making it feel like family. If you’re looking for a place to push yourself physically and build new friendships, this is the place for you!

Russell Y. Nasirifar Great atmosphere and amazing coach! The workouts are well-structured, motivating, and suitable for all levels. I’ve seen real improvement in my endurance and form. Highly recommend to anyone looking to get stronger and stay consistent with running!

Fouad Alkisswani Let me first say this is primarily a fitness facility - a role performed exceptionally well. Firstly, they have a sauna and steam room unlike Equinox, John Reed, and FRD, which are about double in price. Plus, a huge pool, spaces to get work done, a basketball court, a litany of classes and a great location right across from Santa Monica Main Library. My mom (who lives in VA) gifted me a membership and the online process was seamless as was final in-person registration for me. One gripe; however. We paid for a dedicated locker and it took me a day to buy an actual lock. When I went to put it on my locker, someone was using the locker. I went to the front desk and they said "just wait for whomever it is to leave." Feedback indicating that a best practice is to indicate day lockers from paid permanent lockers (all gyms Ive ever been to clearly indicate that) fell on deaf ears. They were nice; however, in how they said "we dont care." For
