    Inside of Bünda

    I'm a big fan of both stairmaster workouts and strength training, so when I heard Bünda offers a class that's 50/50 stairmaster and weights, I was immediately in! I took a class with Iman and had such a great experience. They ask you to show up early, and I really appreciated why: the coach personally greets you, walks you through the format, and checks in about any injuries. I had recently tweaked my back, so it was reassuring to let Iman know ahead of time. It made me feel more comfortable and not like I was wussing out on the weights =p The workout itself was fantastic: three sets on the stairmaster alternating with three sets of strength training on the floor. Each station is stocked with its own weights, so it's easy to tailor the intensity. Want to go heavier than 30lbs? They've got dumbbells up to 75 lbs in the back. The studio is spotless and thoughtfully set up, with nice little touches like hair ties and tampons in the bathroom, small things that make a big difference. Overall, Bünda feels welcoming, challenging, and well run. Highly recommend if you love mixing cardio and strength in one efficient class. I loved Iman's energy and friendly vibes!

    Bunda Costa Mesa is the first OC location but there are several in the LA area. I joined Bunda as a founding member when they opened in late October 2024 and I am still seeing my membership through. As you can see I have a little over a 100 check-ins so I can leave an honest review. Booking is easy. You can book on the app, website or call in. The owners are Rob and Jonny and they are INCREDIBLE. They really are invested in the business and take pride in it. Very rare you won't see one of them on site without greeting you with a smile. The front desk team is also very warm and welcoming. Becca is my girl at check in. She is quick, attentive and friendly. The workouts themselves vary on days but always expect a 50 minute workout with half of it being on the stair master. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays are butt and legs days. While Tuesday and Thursdays are upper body and ABs. The weekends are glute camp Saturdays and Sundays are total body. I find Sundays to be the toughest for myself. I really enjoy how the week is split up and focuses on different body parts. The trainers really are amazing here and so kind. I can talk about all of them forever! Catie holds down the mornings for the most part she always has a solid playlist and so cheerful. Katrina is incredible with demonstrations and making sure we understand form and how it all works together. Iman has the highest energy and always gets me through my low days. Her and Katrina are always encouraging on going heavier. I love taking Nicole's classes on Friday nights and Sundays. She keeps them spicy but pushes us. I enjoy whenever Alexa and Ashley fills in as they are great at demoing and pushing us through as well. Otherwise, Rob and Jonny also bring the heat when they teach and always want you leveling up. Overall, I have mad love for the Bunda Costa Mesa team. This boutique gym is top notch and definitely recommend. They also have a water machine, bathrooms on site and an in body scan machine. They also have fun challenges throughout the year to keep you motivated which I really appreciate!

    Bunda is hands down the best workout I've ever committed to, and the credit goes to my amazing instructor, Iman.

    April 27,2026 ,my 5 day guest pass at this unique Gym was/is amazing ,its all that serious people…read morewant and need to get on with their workout Journeys' ,physically and mentally, also the Drive and motivation that you thought not exist, due to the voices inside your head or mind . However the equipment is updated and workable ,and the energy vibes are real and present , if you are novice or advanced ,you will experience what a( Fitness Gym means just that), you will see results ,with outstanding Trainers and Employees, less talking and more getting into shape and enjoying the experience ,and mind set of getting your Ju, Ju on ! Also the Message chairs and Bed are relaxing after you put in a genuine workout ,remember everyone has an opinion , but if you are genuine about getting into shape ,then may i suggest that you contact the Curl gym Staff ,and then you can write your own review , by the way would you not agree !?!

    Worst gym experience I've had…read more I considered joining this gym and spent a few days researching it before signing up. I spoke with several current and former members and also reviewed the Yelp and Google reviews. Unfortunately, the feedback was overwhelmingly negative. One concern I heard repeatedly was that members were asked to provide their bank account and routing numbers, and some reported being charged fees that they said were never clearly disclosed. When questions were asked about those charges, there seemed to be little explanation available. I also had concerns about the staff's ability to answer basic questions. When I asked for the corporate phone number, I was told they didn't know it, yet I was able to find it with a quick Google search. I also asked who had opened my account and was told the system didn't provide that information. Overall, I found the experience frustrating due to the lack of clear answers and transparency. The gym atmosphere also wasn't a good fit for me personally. It felt more like a social scene than a place focused on fitness, and that simply isn't the environment I'm looking for. Based on my experience and research, I decided not to move forward with a membership.

    I love this place! Starting off with the gym itself; top notch equipment (a lot that you won't find…read morein other gyms), clean and the layout is organized intentionally to give each member enough space. Appreciate that the coaches don't overpack the space so you never have to worry about waiting for a machine/area. There's a fridge with preworkout/electrolytes and fountain so there's always cold water during workouts. For coaches, Adam and Zach are very professional and knowledgeable in their field. I've been working out for over 15+ years (basic knowledge) but finally able to learn how to properly lift without anymore shoulder pain. I am also learning techniques that don't aggravate my body while able to lift more. Adam is my personal trainer and words don't do him justice. He's fully invested in my health and growth in both strength training and as a person. He will push me to my limits but also adjust exercises on the spot when needed. He educates me on the function and technique for each exercise. In the short amount of time I've been at exhilarate I can honestly say it was a catalyst to me taking my health more seriously and finally getting the results I've been looking for. I lost hope in finding/paying for personal training because I didn't think it was worth it from previous experiences but I finally found my the perfect spot.

    I started training with Adam about a year ago to add some weight training to supplement swimming (I…read moreswim masters 3-5x a week). I've seen such a difference--not just in strength, but in how I feel in the water and my overall fitness. Adam takes the time to understand your goals and writes programs that are challenging. He's always pushing you to give your best while balancing it with meeting you where you're at so we always do a checkin at the beginning of each session to gauge my energy levels and any injuries. It's super convenient to have a private gym and not have to wait for equipment to be available. I also love not having to come up with workouts on my own. I would def recommend for all levels.
