I grew up at the J in West Palm Beach, so walking into this JCC felt instantly familiar. Forty years later, I'm back, now with my own kid, and the feeling is the same. Warm. Welcoming. Real. In just a short time, we've gained so much. New friends. Family fun. Arts and culture. Holiday celebrations. I joined a basketball league. My wife and I use the gym. Our kids thrive in afterschool programs. There's something for everyone. Whether you're new to town or have been here for years, the J brings people together in all the best ways. It just feels like home.

Happy hour ride first Friday of every month where you get to connect with riders after the class.

They recommended a bike location towards the back/center so that I could see the instructor. Pros: -lockers are available- you don't need to bring your own lock, there are instructions in the locker on how to lock up your items -first shoe rental is complimentary -the instructor, Georgia, was upbeat, friendly, and knew peoples names in the class -I appreciated that the room itself was on a darker side so there's a level of comfort in there as well -parking was no issue- it fell within the free validation hours. Cons: -n/a Since this is located in the mall, I did feel a little strange walking back to my vehicle all sweaty after working out. But it seems like folx get used to it. Overall, glad I got to try this place out!

Friendly staff and incredible instructors - Jason is my favorite - he is a MUST if you plan to take a class! He is well instructed, full of resistance and amazing music. They have showers, towels are provided, waters for purchase and shoe rentals. First time? Don't be afraid- it is beginner friendly but I do warn you, you will leave SWEATY and will have the urge to keep coming back! I suggest downloading the app for preparations for your first class. Happy riding!

Sean and staff keep seeming to make this place better and better now open 24hrs during the week! Oh yeah... ANOTHER location now open in La Mesa! This gym is ALWAYS clean and looks good!! The staff is very friendly and always willing to help when asked. Need advice on a lift or any of the supplements they sell, just ask and you shall receive! From beginners to vets they have classes/training for all. You'll be pushed as hard as you want to go! If you're looking for a gym to get your work in without the distractions... look no further. Come join the Stallion family!

Marcela is a fabulous Zumba teacher! I have taken classes from her off and on for a number of…read moreyears. I had to stop for a while, because of knee problems, and then was just taking the Zumba classes at the YMCA in Encinitas, because they come with my membership. I decided it's time to "get serious" for 2019, and lose some weight and get in better shape, so I decided I'd go back to Marcela for her Zumba. No one else has quite the happy and peppy attitude she has! She has a genuine smile on her face all the time, and makes her classes extra fun! It's worth the extra money I put out now, because I have more fun and work harder. Please don't get me wrong, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the Y! I love it there and love the people. It's just that Marcela has something that is a true "cut above" with her Zumba! Also, the classes I take with her are MUCH smaller, making it more intimate. It doesn't hurt that after being away from her classes for about 3 years, I walked in, and she called me by name! Who does THAT? If you want a GREAT workout, check out her classes. She is teaching now at Dance North County, in Encinitas.

These Orange studios are everywhere now, and behind those glowing doors people are running, rowing,…read moreand grinding through burpees like their lives depend on it. Carmel Valley is a solid, well maintained location with the familiar OTF rhythm: clean space, organized floor, and that corporate template that keeps everything predictable no matter where you drop in. Parking is surprisingly abundant for this area. The only odd thing is that the prime spots right in front are labeled 30 minute parking even though every class is a full hour. It's a small detail, but it jumps out every time you pull in. Classes here fill up fast. And I mean fast. Waitlists are the norm, and I've been turned away more than once. If you're not booking early, you're rolling the dice. As for coaching, I haven't found a standout yet at this location. Everyone is competent and friendly, but the coaching style stays pretty homogenous thanks to the tight OTF corporate structure. If you're looking for consistency, you'll get it. If you're looking for a coach who completely changes your game, I haven't met that person here. Overall, it's a clean, reliable studio that delivers exactly what OTF promises: heart rate monitors, clear metrics, and a workout where you're competing against yourself in the best way.

I signed up a month ago, and from the very beginning I had various issues with my heart rate monitor. It felt like all the different girls at the reception kept giving me the runaround and I was getting frustrated having to use a loaner every time and hearing different answers from different people. Finally, I was able to meet with the manager, Amelia, and she really turned around my whole experience. She immediately fixed all my issues without me even having to ask, which I really appreciated. Ever since then, I'm a happy member! I have the unlimited membership and go about 4-5 times a week. I love all the classes and all the coaches! I never thought I'd enjoy a treadmill workout, but I even take the Tread50 classes once a week and they're a lot of fun!

This review is for the regional manager, Marlena…read more There has been situations involving members that made me very uncomfortable with how things were handled. One incident involved a member being removed from the studio in a way that felt discriminatory, with comments made about her "smelling like strong spices," which I found incredibly inappropriate. I also saw situations where members' cards continued to be charged even after issues or cancellations were raised. From my perspective, the way management handled these situations felt dishonest and unfair to members. It's unfortunate because the instructors and staff who actually run the classes are wonderful and create a great workout environment. My issue is specifically with the regional manager, Marlena, and how situations with employees and members were handled. I hope corporate takes a closer look at what's happening here, because the instructors and members deserve better leadership.

During the month of October, this studio offered a free class almost everyday. My friend told me…read moreabout it and we checked out a few classes. Please keep in mind that this review will be about these classes. I think it's incredibly generous to offer this trial as it allows you to check out several types of dance styles and instructors. They have an app, which I found to be really easy to use. They clearly label which classes are part of the trial and provide confirmation and reminders. The schedule accommodated work schedules and if weekdays were too tight, they had classes on weekends as well. They have 3 studio rooms and they had a person checking people in which could let you know where the class you were taking would be. One studio was large and the other two were about half the size. Each has its own bathroom which was nice. I tried a few Bollywood classes, Latin dance, a barre class and a Tahitian class. While the Bollywood cardio and Latin classes were the most popular, the instructors were all very patient and energetic. The Bollywood cardio class wasn't geared to really teach moves but more for you to follow along as best as you can and hope you get it before the next move. My personal goal is to stay on beat and try to get 60-80% of any class I take which I was easily able to for the classes. There is plenty of parking and the rooms are clean. When I have some discretionary income I'll definitely come back to buy a package so I can keep shaking my groove thang.

This review is long overdue, but honestly, I've been coming to Studio K for years and it's not an…read moreexaggeration to say it's completely changed my life. When I first walked in, I had basically zero dance experience and no idea what to expect. Fast forward to today, and I've not only developed real dance skills, but also a level of confidence I never thought I'd have, and built some amazing friendships along the way. What truly sets Studio K apart is the instructors. Every single one of them is insanely talented, highly trained, and genuinely passionate about what they do. The class variety is another huge highlight. There's always something new to try, and I constantly find myself learning different styles and technique. I'm always leaving class feeling better than when I came. If you're even thinking about trying dance. whether you're a complete beginner like I was or more experienced, Studio K is the place to be!! I can't recommend it enough!!
