ATTENTION: NEW LOCATION:…read more 9672 Central Ave Suite A, Montclair, CA 91763 Coach Nita is amazing. She is mental health professional by day and a boxing coach and trainer by night. She inspires you, challenges you, teaches you by example. The Self-Care Lab Boxing Fitness Club is for anyone who would like to address their mental health through training their body. Boxing takes discipline and patience, courage and determination. Coach Nita reminds you to listen to your body, to breathe, to give it your all, and then to rest. I started with individual one-on-one lessons twice a week the month of January. Now in February, I've joined the adult class twice a week. It's typically Coach Nita, 2-5 guys, and me. It's a very supportive environment, and we cheer each other on, and encourage each other. Any women out there ever curious about boxing but never tried it? Come join us. It's so fun. You leave exhausted and sweaty, but oh so energized and mentally ready to face any challenge!

Very welcoming atmosphere, professionalism, encouragement, strength and mental breakthroughs.read more

I originally came in just wanting to fix my form and learn how to lift properly, and that's what…read moreI've been getting. Kacy is big on progression and basically operates under the assumption that you can always go up in weight, which has pushed my strength up (especially hip thrusts and RDLs). It's small group training, which keeps the energy up because everyone's working at the same time. He'll keep you accountable and make sure you finish your sets and there's a decent chance you'll leave with a random nickname you didn't ask for but it does keep things entertaining. In my first month I've already seen measurable changes in strength and body composition, so it's been interesting to see the progress show up pretty quickly. Curious to see what the next couple months look like.

I found Kacy through a friend and started training with him about 6 months postpartum. Before…read morehaving my baby, I ran casually ran a couple half marathons), did some indoor rock climbing, and dabbled with free weights on my own--but nothing too intense. I always seemed to over-strain something and end up injured, so I was pretty hesitant about jumping back into weight training after having a baby. That's when I decided to look for a personal trainer. From day one, I was impressed by Kacy's knowledge and expertise. He has this uncanny ability to gauge exactly how much I can lift just by watching me do a single set--which I'm guessing comes from years of experience, but it's still impressive to see in action. Here's the thing about Kacy that might throw you off at first: he often looks distracted, like he's not paying attention. But don't let that fool you! He's tracking everything--your form, your reps, your timing--and he'll call you out if you're slacking on your sets. It's actually kind of amazing how dialed in he is even when it doesn't look like it. If you're looking for a knowledgeable trainer who will push you and keep you accountable (even when you think he's not watching), Kacy's your guy. Highly recommend!

I have been with this studio for over a year. My experience became increasingly uncomfortable over…read moretime due to the owner, Stephanie. One day, I arrived late because of traffic, and Stephanie addressed me in a sharp, confrontational tone. From that point on, Stephanie consistently avoided speaking to me while engaging with other members, which created an unwelcoming atmosphere. Despite this, I continued attending in order to finish the classes I had already paid for. About a month later, Stephanie confronted me in the middle of a workout with all other members present. This was not only uncomfortable but also highly inappropriate. Later that same day, Stephanie texted me saying it would be best if I left the studio and refunded my remaining classes minus a processing fee. When I asked about the processing fee, she never responded. I ended up disputing this fee with my credit card company and it was refunded to me. I'm sharing my experience so others can be aware of how concerns and interactions may be handled by Stephanie. While the workouts themselves were fine, Stephanie's unprofessional behavior and lack of communication are a glaring example of how this business is run. I do not believe I am the first person to have this type of experience based on other reviews.

But this is not a gym; it is a training facility where you work with trainers to tackle your physical goals. Next, this is about my trainer, Kevin Abandy. Kevin has been my trainer for exactly 8 weeks now and he is awesome! I made the decision to get a trainer after my birthday to truly invest in myself. You can invest in your own skills and education, but the return is almost always indirect. But with a trainer, specifically Kevin, I gained 8 lbs of muscle mass and lost 8% body fat (approx. 13-lbs of fat) after 8 weeks of training with him. Also, at the start of my training, I had back pain (from past injury to T12) and knee pains (from under the kneecap). Through Kevin's program and coaching, my pain has been reduced to near 0 with full mobility -- like squatting all the way down and up with 200-lbs of weight on my shoulders with no knee pain. I would give a 1-star review to keep it from getting crowded, but it would be hard for me to not tell others about the good that comes out of this place. My mom is 70 and she's training with Kevin too! And the story is the same for her... knee pains - GONE. Back pains - GONE. If you're reading this and decide to get a consultation with Kevin, please let him know you saw Alex's review so he knows his method is making an impact.

I've been working with Mia for almost 6 months now and have dropped about 5% in body fat and gained 7% in muscle mass. I would have never considered myself "overweight" but knew I needed to lose a few pounds. I've tried the traditional membership gyms but always found that I would lose interest or motivation. When I started inquiring about personal trainers, Mia was very prompt at answering. During our consultation I did a body fat scan and was shocked to find out that I was nearly 25%. We talked and I learned that it was less about the weight and more about body composition and fat/muscle percentages. Due to my work schedule we were able to meet twice a week for an hour a session. Mia adds good variety to our workouts and I definitively know that I push myself more during our sessions that I normally would have if I were doing the workouts by myself. She also places an emphasis on nutrition and offers advice on what to eat and what to stay away from. The last couple of years my diet has gotten progressively worse, and she's been a great help in getting me back on track.

From the start, he was blowing up my phone late at night for payment, which should have been a huge red flag. Once I finally paid, his "coaching" turned out to be copy-and-paste workouts that he sends to everyone, regardless of their actual goals. I only made it a week into the first month before realizing this wasn't going to work. When I asked about a refund for the unused time, he refused. To make matters worse, he then blocked me on social media instead of addressing the situation professionally.
