    Honestly best value gym in Costa Mesa area.. better equipment than equinox and lifetime for a third of the price.

    i've been shopping around for a new gym and candace at the front desk made it an easy choice to pick curl! she was so sweet! i love the vibe and people here! so welcoming and friendly! there's no wait for equipment. i can't wait to keep coming back!!

    I've been coming here consistently for a few months now and it's been a solid experience overall. The gym is usually clean, especially the locker rooms and workout areas, which is something I pay attention to. Staff is regularly walking around and you can tell they're keeping up with things. Equipment is in good shape for the most part, and there's a good mix whether you're into lifting or cardio. It can get busy during peak hours, but that's pretty expected. If you come at the right times, you won't have much trouble getting the machines or racks you need. The environment is also pretty comfortable--people mostly mind their own business, so it doesn't feel intimidating if you're just trying to get your workout in. Staff is friendly the moment you walk in. David, Javi, Vince were all super helpful! Overall, it's a reliable gym. Not perfect, but definitely a good option if you're looking for a clean place with solid equipment and a chill atmosphere.

    I'd like to shout out Javier for his touring expertise. He listened to my needs, and provided me with the right membership. That'a customer service right there! Thanxs Java

    The Holy Spirit led me to leave this review today after being a member since December 2025…read more I praise God for how He is using Mark and Kat to help people become more physically healthy while also introducing them to what matters most--Jesus Christ. Their commitment to honoring the Lord through their business is evident. The facility is always well-stocked, the equipment is organized (unlike many public gyms), and everything is consistently clean and well maintained. It's a welcoming environment where excellence and care are clearly a priority. I truly believe the Lord will continue to bless Mark and Kat, both in their business and in their family, because of their faithfulness and obedience to Him. The Scripture that comes to mind is Psalm 37:5: "Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust Him, and He will help you." May the Lord Jesus Christ continue to increase your influence, bless your work, and grant you favor as you faithfully walk in obedience to Him.

    I cannot say enough good things about Alyssa. She is awesome! From day one, she has been organized…read moreand intentional with every workout. You can tell she actually plans everything out instead of just winging it. What I appreciate most is how thoroughly she explains things. She breaks down the why behind each movement, corrects my form, and makes sure I understand what we are working on. That has made a huge difference. I can already see changes in my physique, which is so motivating. I feel stronger and more confident, and she genuinely makes me excited to work out. If you want a trainer who is organized, inspiring, and truly invested in your progress, Alyssa is it.

    I've been coming here since February, and joining this gym has honestly been one of the best…read moredecisions I've made this year. At first, I was really intimidated. I had only ever gone to places like 24 Hour Fitness, so walking into a more serious training gym was completely out of my comfort zone. But from day one, everyone made me feel so welcome. The front desk staff is always friendly, and they even have a little coffee bar in the mornings, which is such a nice touch. I've been training with AJ, and I can't recommend him enough. Coming from someone who knew almost nothing about gym equipment or strength training (I was mainly a Pilates girl), he made everything easy to understand and made me feel comfortable asking questions. He's patient, encouraging, and genuinely cares about helping you improve. Since starting here, my body has changed so much, but honestly, so has my mindset. I've gained confidence, learned proper form, and actually look forward to coming to the gym. No matter what fitness level you're at, I've never felt judged or out of place. There are people at every stage of their fitness journey, and it's a really supportive environment. I've also attended one of their women's events, which was such a fun way to meet people and be part of the community. It really feels like more than just a gym. If you've been nervous about joining a gym like I was, this is your sign. I'm so glad I took the chance.

    Great local gym with an amazing vibe…read more Friendly & welcoming staff, quality equipment that is clean and well maintained. A definite breath of fresh air compared to many other gyms in the area.

    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.

    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.
