My experience at Orinda's Anytime Fitness continues to be outstanding in every possible way!…read more Renee has assembled a wonderful team who always greet me and make me feel like a valued gym member! I recently participated in Joti's "group boxing class" which exceeded my expectations. Even though I was the only woman in the class, I loved getting helpful tips from Joti as well from the male participants (in particular, Tom, Nick & Jonnie)! Joti made me feel right at ease! Like many of his Af counterparts, Joti is the "full package." He has flawless people skills, he is very knowledgeable about boxing, and he has a way of making the class a very positive learning experience -both for those who have prior boxing experience, and those (like me) with no prior boxing experience. I so enjoyed Joti's boxing class and I look forward to enrolling again very soon! In my opinion, what makes Renee's team so outstanding is the understanding that what separates the top performers (like AF) from the competition is a strong "relationship orientation" versus a "transactional approach!". Renee's wonderful team exemplifies this "relationship" orientation each & every day: Katee, traing mgr and Siobhan are very knowledgeable and are always upbeat & available for questions. Joti, Jonnie (sp?) and Antoine (all fairly new) also have flawless people skills, are equally knowledgeable and greet me every day; Jonnie and I have had multiple conversations about a healthy lifestyle as to diet & exercise, and Jonnie recently introduced me to Arnold Schwarzenegger's online newsletter which addresses the importance of a healthy lifestyle (many thx Jonnie!!). Last but not least, Stephen is also very knowledgeable and a pleasure to engage; Like his brother, Gershon, Gersavick (sp?) is extremely personable, he greets me every day AND he plays the best Michael Jackson tunes to work out to! The gym is always pristine- from the bathrooms, to the main gym floor and studio. The gym equipment is also well-maintained. Renee, thank you for assembling an outstanding team and for all that you do!!! Many thanks, Elizabeth

I spent the next two days looking for it and asking multiple employees if they had seen it, but unfortunately, I had no luck. On Thursday night, I went back again, and Maria, one of the supervisors, was incredibly helpful and was able to find my backpack for me. I really appreciate her taking the time to help me and making sure I got it back. I also have to mention how incredibly clean the women's locker room always is, especially when Maria is working. You can tell she really cares about keeping everything nice. Thank you, Maria, for being so helpful and for taking such great care of the members! It really makes a difference.

Holy moly, what an amazing facility and workout! FitLab has been around for several months, but…read moreI've only heard about it recently through ClassPass. With zero ratings / new on ClassPass, I decided to sign up to try it out anyways, and it's one of the best decisions I've made this year. Coincidently enough, one of my former fave OTF coach worked out here, so more of a reason to try FitLab! I signed up for their Hybrid Engine class (HYDOX / DEKA training, etc.) for Monday 6AM, but I wanted to see the facility before a full on class so I wouldn't feel as lost, so I then signed up for "open gym" the day prior. Got there a few mins before it started, and I met Coach/Trainer Larry. He was superb! Larry gave us a nice tour around the facility and described the various machines and stations. He also showed us the amenities- bar, sauna, cold plunge. Amazing! He gave us a nice workout that day as well, focusing on DEKA and we utilized a lot of the stuff- rowing machine, air bike, dumbbells, ski erg, weighted balls, ski pulls/pushes, and more. We also did some body weighted exercises and stretches, as well as some outdoor run up and down the hill. After the workout, he showed us some other stations, more focused on Spartan races. Wow, so strong and inspirational! I had an amazing intro, and was looking forward to the actual class the next morning. Next morning quickly approached, and I was ready for the workout! It was the Hybrid Engine workout, and we did a warmup, then we were divided into groups and were told which stations to rotate around. Nice HIIT style workout focusing on items re HYROX and DEKA. We did some of the machines, some farmer carries, RAM burpees, med ball throws, sandbags, and more. Great intro to a lot of the exercises, and I really enjoyed it. Ended the workout with some dynamic stretching, and I tried the sauna and cold plunge for the first time in my life. Full facilities- locker room, showers, toilets, etc. Shared, which is fine by me. Looking forward to signing up for more classes!

These events provide an unparalleled opportunity for camaraderie and shared experiences. Recently, I underwent hip replacement surgery, and Carah's classes served as my greatest motivation to heal and resume dancing with my Oakwood Dance Sisters.

Immediately 2 more employees that were there stand up and said we need to do this now! While talking , several other gym members check in after me and most didn't have a profile picture either but we're not asked to do one nor they were stopped , as I was , to enter the facility. I personally knew one of the persons who checked in while I was talking with the 3 employees at the front desk, and she didn't have a profile picture I saw it on one of the front desk computers. Out of nowhere, another guy showed up , I am not sure he was an employee or not, asking to show them my ID , so they can identify me. I said ok, I can show you my ID. I felt like I am a criminal, passing LAX security guards. When I show my Driver License , an employee took a picture of my driver license without asking me. He was only supposed to verify my identity not take a picture of my driver license! Many other members checked in at the gym , while we were talking and none of them that didn't have a picture on their account was stopped or asked for a picture, only me, I was singled out! Forma , you should train better your employees to be more polite and respectful towards the members who pay their salaries! And think twice before you hire disrespectful teenagers who think they own the company! Very disappointing experience. The way Forma Gym employees treated me appears extremely selective--some people are repeatedly singled out and bothered over minor issues, while others are given a free pass for doing the exact same things. Rules should be applied consistently and fairly to everyone, not enforced only against particular people. Professionalism means treating every customer equally and respectfully. Management should take a closer look at how these situations are handled, because this kind of inconsistent treatment creates a very unfair and uncomfortable environment.

But omg I am too old for the misleading and covert sales attempts First of all, if having you hold a little machine with metal handles was a legit way to measure your physical fitness or cardio strength or lean muscle vs fat, I think on many decades of doctor visits I would have encountered it! This felt like 100 percent an attempt to leverage people's trust in technology and fear of the wellness industries standards too make me buy more services from this gym. Did I mention I'm too old to have a young man and his machine tell me about my body and health goals? They told me when I joined i would get a free personal training session that would tell me how to use machines ( i expressed repeatedly that i don't need help with goal setting, good on that, thanks!) Instead the supposed personal training session was an elaborate sales pitch. Did I mention I'm too old? The trainer had me do some exercises and I guess evaluated something but to get any details on how to use the machines, which I stated many many times was my only reason for the session , I was invited to give up more of my money and time. Luckily, I'm old, so all I wasted was about 3o minutes instead of also spending extra money or having random people with pseudo scientific machines and full in the blank worksheets make me doubt myself and my body. I'll keep coming bc working out feels good and makes me feel healthy but I'm aware I'm walking into an attempted scam every time I enter.
