Planet Fitness - San Pablo (CA)

Elana Marmorstein No matter your age, fitness level, or experience, taking a workout class at Happy Hour Fitness with Xabier will make you sweat and make you smile! He has an infectious energy, and paired with the workouts, really makes you want to push yourself in class. Every class is something unique and includes a great playlist. What really makes the studio unique in my opinion, is he has cultivated a group that all works together to push each other to be their best during the class. Classes always begin with dynamic stretching and end with core work and a cool down. I appreciate that Xabier always offers modifications for exercises to accommodate all fitness levels and is considerate of injuries or any barriers to exercise. If youre looking for a small fitness studio dedicated to fun workouts, fitness, and inclusivity, this is the place to be.

Damon Jimenez Enn (Fairtex) brings real Muay Thai to his gym straight from Thailand. Hes a great instructor and puts time into each student.

Lisa Leblanc Anne Rene is an amazing, challenging instructor. I have practiced yoga for many years and she brings out a new playfulness in an advanced practice. She has a deep understanding of the asanas, related spirituality and has great music!

Kenneth Stengel Awesome gym with great classes.

Kaley Berlin I already love this place. Brenda has brought my love for Pilates back to life and shes gone above and beyond my expectations from an instructor. I have been out of shape since spine surgery 2 years ago (and Covid times). I found this studio after looking for a smaller class size to feel comfortable in. I have been here now for 2 weeks and feel excited to be back at it - feeling strong and challenged in my body!

Donna A Southard Very nice, clean place, "serene" as someone else observed. People of all ages, respectful laid back environment. I have trained with Diane and she was fantastic, kept me on a pace that allowed for progress without pain. She knows her stuff and is very animated and encouraging. Now working out on my own, but in the future I plan to re-up with her. I have also observed other trainers and they all seem very committed and focused on the needs of their clients, who are mostly in the over 40 age group, as opposed to pushing some rah rah agenda more suited to professional athletes or boot camp.

C B Traverse has been wonderful for my kiddo. The coaches have been super supportive. They’ve been great at keeping my son actively engaged and encouraging a positive/growth mindset in my son. My son had started doing the open gym a little while ago - traverse is a great “ninja” (parkour-type) gym with lots of space for kids (and adults!) to drop in. Because of the great facility and the positive interactions with the helpful and encouraging coaches that supervise open gym, my son felt inspired to take classes at traverse. Not too long after starting classes, and with the encouragement of more great coaches, my son wanted to join the traverse team - and loves it! The summer camps and school break camps have also been a really fun way for my kiddo to be active during school breaks. Very happy that we found traverse - highly recommend!

Joseph Guthrie I have been going to Lakeridge for close to 10 years. Lakeridge is such a great place, clean, welcoming, and full of energy. The best part is the people, especially Cherie. She’s always so kind and friendly, and really makes you feel at home every time you walk in.

Lila Orangi I’ve been taking the Zumba classes with Alejandra at Berkeley City Sports Club @ 8:30 AM, and I love it. Alejandra has a diverse and energetic style; motivating everyone to dance and have a great time. She provides excellent and easy to follow instructions with high energy and enthusiasm suitable for all levels. She also includes new, fun music and choreography to each class. I totally enjoy, get a great workout at her classes and feel more energetic after the class. I highly recommend taking a Zumba class with Luisa Alejandra T.
