I'm a new member and transferred recently from Oakwood, also in Lafayette. Parking is a little trickier for sure, but to offset that Forma offers a valet service! Brilliant idea, especially for parents of young kids. The group class selection is outstanding, the majority of which you do not pay extra for. The only exceptions are similar to most gyms-like pilates reformer. Excellent outdoor options for those who like to get outside to enjoy our California climate! Salt water pool for lap swimming and a couple of cabanas if you want to enjoy some sun after your workout. Great healthy snack options at Cafe and very reasonable memberships to choose from. Highly recommend! read more

I didn't think I would ever find a gym as nice as the one I went to on my college campus without paying hundreds of dollars a month. I had resigned myself to several years of 24hr Fitness before I stumbled upon this Temple of Iron. Best membership I've ever invested in. Working out here is an experience for me and once I get in there I can always tough out a full workout no matter how tired I am. There is something about the atmosphere that pushes me. I also do something that I never used to do at gyms: shower. The locker rooms are clean and well kept along with the shower/spa room. If you aren't going to Forma, you are missing out. read more

Forma isn't high end at all. It is somewhat clean, at least cleaner than 24 hour fitness. I do spinning and the spinning equipment and spinning classes are just horrible. Perhaps the worst in the area. The room is kept at 64 degrees and it is hard to break a sweat for the first 20 minutes. In the spinning room which is extremely small there are also 4 fans which directly blow on people making the spinning experience even worst. I don't know about you but when I spin I want to SWEAT..... I have been a member since they were at a different location on North California Street, when the club was small and so much better. Now the spinning classes are run by uncertified instructors, who have uninspired classes, on extremely old broken down spinning bikes in a freezing atmosphere. Even the people who take the class are mostly an older crowd who seem to have their own clique. No thank you, there are so many better clubs to go to for spinning like Cycle Scape, Soul Cycle, Flywheel or Club Sport. There is no parking either. Did I mention that the spinning equipment SUCKS? It's got to be at least 20 years old, they haven't made these bikes in years, the flywheels dont work, nobody fixes them, and the atmosphere in the room is beyond awful. One good thing is it has a steam room, there is always someone shaving in the steam room, (so gross) and there is the Jacuzzi is usually filthy because they clean it once a week. read more

This gym has cleaning staff! I know because I see them cleaning all the time (certain areas), which is a good thing considering it's a gym. However, they need to clean the following: Steam Room - I opened the door to the steam room and the odor was unbearable. Smelt like dirty gym socks...etc This needs a deep cleaned! I think the Equinox Sports Club in SF does it right. They have eucalyptus smell so it gives you that refresh feeling! Now we just need the Forma Gym to do that :) Hot Tub - You would think they put toilet water in here... this needs a deep clean! Handicap Shower -Why is this always dirty? It looks like someone splat something black all over. Outdoor Pool - I understand that it's an outdoor pool, again however, the darn thing is always dirty! Spiders, dirt etc. The Renaissance Sports Club has an outdoor pool which is always clean! So I know Forma Gym can do the same. With all the cleaning staff I see at the gym, I would only ask that you do a routine deep clean every so often. Now you could tell me that you do, and or did, however I highly suggest you revisiting this... read more

I do love this place. I'm a veteran of this place, having been there since its long-forgotten about previous location, when it was just a tiny boutique gym in a strip mall in downtown Walnut Creek. Even though it's a much larger location now it still maintains its boutique gym feel. It's full of serious people getting serious exercise, but is also friendly. The weight room lacks the nasty "meathead" feel of many nearby gyms (24 hour fitness in Concord comes to mind) but doesn't have a country club feel either. People are there to get fit and you can feel the energy. I don't even use most of the facilities (pool, spin room, etc.) but the weight room and large exercise studio offer as much as I could want. read more

Been coming here for years. It's like a home away from home. Great classes, wonderful staff, unmatched community vibe. 5 stars!

I originally gave this gym a 5 star review. I hate to give a bad review. I've been debating the last couple months just to remove the 5 star all together. But after today's incident I just needed to write this. I have been member for 9 months now. I am a single, working mother I don't have a lot of free time. I work out to relieve stress and stay healthy. Since I joined there has been a huge member increase and now it's almost impossible to get a parking spot. All the good classes that I like, the times have been changed (so I can no longer go to them) OR they are so packed with people there's no space. At the pool the aqua aerobics instructors play loud techno music blaring up to 15 minutes before the class has started, which makes a tranquil swim experience disappear. Here's the biggest complaint I have, in the weight room. It is also packed now, I can barely get a workout in, because all the equipment is being used. The other members have no gym etiquette. I have had members ask me (rudely) to get off machine, while I'm in the middle of using it, so they can use it! I do circuit training so I don't stop working out in between sets. When I have said I'm using it, the member complained about me. David Miller has come to me twice now telling me that I should have handled the situation differently. Both times this has happened I felt attacked. He has not believed my side of the situation. Maybe because I am not one of the rich members. Both times he has interrupted me in the middle of my workout. He talked to me in the middle of the gym with everyone watching. Doesn't management have an office? Would have been a lot more professional if he handled it differently. This approach resulted in me leaving early because he has made me so upset. I am paying to be a member too! Has he forgotten? read more

Way too expensive for what you get. And the membership team is unhelpful. 6/2/15 - And just received a very angry phone call from Josh on the membership team today after writing this review. Just reinforces my feedback. read more

I really hope today was an off day. I toured the gym earlier in the week and just started my free 3-day trial. Mike showed me around at the tour and was very helpful. Overall the facility looked nice, and I was excited when he told me the gym has two speed bags, since I miss my young boxing days. Today, after a quick warmup, I wrapped up my hands and wandered around trying to find the bags, but I couldn't find them anywhere. I asked the front desk person, who walked me over to where it should be, but it was just an empty area. He told me that sometimes people hit them too hard and they must have taken it down, and no guess as to when it will be replaced. I wanted some water, so I went to the main area in the front. The jug was empty. So I found the closest water fountain, which had a giant loogie in it that almost made me throw up. I checked back 20 minutes later, and the water at the front still hadn't been refilled. There is a cool whiteboard where members can track how often they visit the gym. Unfortunately, the boards have all been filled up, so new members can't use it. While the facilities are generally pretty nice, my feeling from today is that the upkeep is lacking and the service overall could use improvement. I would have a hard time justifying the premium price unless this is improves. I will finish my trial and decide where to go from there. read more

Love this gym!!! The staff does a great job of keeping the facility nice and clean. Everyone greets you with a warm smile, the vibes are always pleasant here. Omeed always makes my smoothies and knows exactly what I want. Even when they shutdown the refreshment lounge, he'll go out of his way to make one. I take the barre classes twice a week; Leslie is a great instructor and Celeste will whip you into shape! If you haven't, get a free trial and you'll fall in love! read more

I began working with Ernie 3 month's ago post-hip surgery and needless to say my lower body was in bad shape. Since training with Ernie I have seen dramatic changes in my body. When I came to see him I had very little mobility, little strength, and was extremely deconditioned in my hip. I quickly learned that although I had been training for years, I needed to start over. Ernie has helped me to strengthen my body in ways that I didn't think were possible after having two hip surgeries. He is extremely knowledgeable and will teach you proper body mechanics to enhance your workout. My training sessions are unique, challenging, and deliver results. If you're looking to take your training to the next level, then Ernie is your guy. read more

In 2013 my workplace suffered 3 separate workplace fatalities and I was having a rough year. I decided it was time to get my self in shape and get serious. I signed up for a year membership and purchased 24 personal training sessions with Steve Schmitt. I filled Steve in on what I was looking for and he promptly got me on a meal plan. Steve is the Kettle bell King! Steve showed me a whole new way of working out and eating. I was seeing results quickly and for an hour a day Steve was able to get me out of mind and help me keep my sanity. I was enjoying my time with Steve so much I purchased another package of training sessions. I have brought down my body fat and increased my strength and muscle mass. The gym it's self is full of great equipment and space to exercise. All the staff and trainers are nice, polite and very motivating. Great classes and staff who know who you are and treat you right. The clubs membership is very diverse and maintains a hi energy vibe that keeps you focused on your workouts. The other members are good people too and can be a lot of fun as well. The change I made has paid off for myself and my entire family. We all now are eating better and excited about exercising as the gym has a kid care facility with wonderful caring women who watch over my boys attentively. Formagym and Steve Schmitt saved my 2013 from being disastrous and set up for me and my family to have a great 2014. If your serious about making a change this is the gym, staff, and environment you want supporting you. Formagym member and Steve Schmitt follower. read more

**June 2017 UPDATE** I'm upping my review to 4 stars because, even though the issues I mentioned have yet to be addressed, management did reach out to me directly, and, on second thought, I do enjoy the facility more than 3 stars. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Forma partners with my primary gym, Active Fitness in Downtown Oakland (previously Club One), which means I can use this facility up to 4x a month - a nice benefit for someone who works in downtown Oakland but lives in Walnut Creek. The club is very spacious and has a great outdoor workout area. The women's spa is wonderful - very clean, fairly updated, and always functioning. There are a plethora of courses they offer and the instructors seem very experienced. It's really nice and convenient that there's a juice/snack bar with some tasty & healthy options. The owners/managers seem to take great care of this facility except when it comes to the cardio area, which is why I'm not giving it 5 stars. The equipment needs some serious updating and there needs to be better ventilation upstairs. They recently added new stair mills and bikes which are really great, but the treadmills are very worn and 2 out of the 3 total ellipticals with arm resistance shut down if you stop moving for more than 2 seconds, literally, so you lose your workout progress - very lame. read more

I actually debated writing this review for a while, because I don't want Forma Gym to get too popular and become overcrowded like 24! But I have to give props to Forma for their fabulous customer service. Reed, Conner and Carolina constantly have a smile on their face and are there to motivate me when I need it most. I love the perks and benefits that Forma offers its members. Easy parking, updated locker rooms, one TV for every treadmill, etc. It's the little things that make my membership here worth every penny. read more

After looking for years for a gym that will motivate me to exercise , I found Forma , a perfect size gym for me, not to big, friendly staff, up to date exercise machines and excellent trainers . I am not an athletic person ...actually, I don't really like to exercise and have tried to belong to several gyms in the past and quit all of them . Forma was my last chance to try to change my ways ( and lack of discipline...). I was teamed up with Steve Schmitt as my personal trainer and I have been going to Forma twice a week for the last 2 years!!! . I changed , my body changed, and my mind changed . Steve has made a difference in my life!! I am also taking Mind-Body classes with Yuki, a life-coach instructor at Forma , another excellent coach that is helping me to get more grounded, get focused and have a more clear sense of what I want in life !! I could not recommend this excellent Gym more highly !!!! read more

Terrible gym. I came on a free pass and was hounded by the membership coordinator who made me feel very uncomfortable. The place has zero air conditioning and it's probably about 80 degrees in Spin class. It's dirty, unkempt and clearly poorly run. read more

Thanks to the personal trainer Monica, I lost about 15lbs over 2mo. This is real healthy weight loss (lower fat, greater tone), not just a bunch of water. 24hr was doing no good for me so I switched to Forma. Great move! I took the plunge and signed up for personal training sessions. Monica was assigned to me and she is a sensational trainer (knows what she's doing and is fun to work with). I'm a guy in my 40s with injuries and Monica took great care to work around my injuries and has successfully converted me into a more toned and lighter version of me. Thanks! Also, in case it helps: If you're thinking of signing up, talk to Joshua. He's a great guy and has gone out of his way to ensure I'm happy here. Overall, Monica, Joshua, and Forma was a great decision. For once, even my doctor is happy :^). read more

I have been a member of Forma (formally Walnut Creek Sports and Fitness) for just over nine years and honestly it is and continues to be THE BEST fitness club I've ever experienced. There are so many positive, strong qualities about Forma that I refused to join another club when I relocated nearly a 30 minute drive away -Forma is and remains that exceptional. Whether one is newly engaged to improving overall health and fitness and perhaps apprehensive to joining and participating in a gym environment or a seasoned, committed athlete, I've found that Forma offers a complete package to engage its members in overall health and fitness, incorporating mind, body, and spirit. Fitness equipment, classes, personal trainers, and spa services have successfully catered to a variety of member fitness levels, ages, personalities, and mindsets-a difficult task for any business but Forma succeeds nonetheless. From personal experience, the staff at Forma are phenomenal. Every staff member I've come across over the years has taken the time to get to know me, greeting and acknowledging me personally by name, in a friendly, outgoing, personable manner, whether I've hired them or taken a class or not. Personal Trainer and 'Life Coach', Steve Schmitt, in particular, is an exceptional professional at Forma. For many individuals, the act of hiring a personal trainer is a deeply personal one. Who will help you with not only your goals but through your struggles and setbacks as well? Will your trainer be there both physically and mentally, guiding and encouraging you along the way as you journey toward a lifestyle change rather than just a temporary solution? There are many trainers out there in the fitness industry and many can and will simply "put you through the motions" of a typical workout or "diet". Steve Schmitt, however, is NOT that kind of trainer. Always the consummate professional, Steve's dedicated and personal "Life Coach" approach is one that all trainers should aspire to. Whether working one-one-one with his clients, leading his personal High Intensity Interval Class, or offering sound nutritional guidance and advice backed by science, knowledge, and experience, Steve is actively participating in YOUR personal fitness journey toward a healthier, all-encompassing, results-oriented lifestyle. It has been an honor to get to know and work with Steve Schmitt and many of his clients feel and will tell you the same. Forma's additional services, including its onsite childcare Kidsville, is also exceptional, offering a variety of programs (kids yoga, date night, etc.) and activities for different age groups. My son is on the Autism spectrum (Aspergers) and Forma staff have always been understanding, accommodating, and helpful to both me and my son, including allowing his therapist to conduct social therapy onsite-a valuable and thoughtful act of acceptance and kindness on Forma's part. Josh from sales, in particular, has found a special place in my son's heart, taking time out to interact and playfully engage with him much to my son's delight-often bringing a smile and positive engagement (a true accomplishment to positively influence a child on the spectrum in this way)-and not because he has to but because he wants to-and this act of kindness, professionalism, and integrity is reflective amongst all Forma staff. In short, if you want a personal, positive fitness club experience that only a non-chain fitness center can provide, Forma is it! read more

I went to Forma today for the first time to check out their new Mind Body Studio and take a yoga class. Wow! So nice that this gym has a separate yoga studio from the group exercise classes. It was beautiful and had nice energy, down-to-earth people and the instructor was amazing! Mellara's class started gentle and finished strong. She is so grounded and nurturing and offers accommodations for people at every level. I loved her class! I've been practicing yoga for over a year and this place feels like a real yoga studio with the perks of a nice gym! My son enjoyed the childcare too. Thanks Mellara and Forma! read more

Forma continually has excellent customer service and makes every person welcome and excited to workout and enjoy others company. Since becoming a member many who have worked the fronts desk and membership are consistent and always take care of me. There's a person named Omeed and he works at the front desk, he says hello to every person who walks in and makes sure that he takes care of any request. When it comes down to it, anyone there is able to help you and go above what you ask for, that's all anyone can ask for, thanks Forma. read more

My health was my deciding factor to join Forma Gym after several visits and research that was done from different places. I wanted to make sure that I was not wasting my time, effort and money and made sure I would get in the right gym. I was assigned to a young,strong, muscular, hardworking guy named Art Deak as my Trainer. Here are the Facts: 58 year old woman Height: 4'9" BeforeTraining and After 6 weeks of Training: Blood Pressure: 160/90 Blood Pressure: 120/80 Weight: 106 pounds Weight: 96 pounds Body Fat: 36.6% Body Fat: 25% BMI: 26 BMI: 20.5 Blood Sugar: 214 Blood Sugar:100 Multiple Sprained Left Ankle Less to No Pain (Wears 4.5-5inch heels Fri & Sat dancing) Medications: Atenolol 50mg./day Atenolol medication : Discontinued Hydrochlorothiazide 25mg./day Hydrochlorothiazide :Discontinued Blood Sugar Meds Not Prescribed I am very grateful for having a very conciientious, dedicated, effecient, hardworking trainer like Art Deak. He is very focused and pays attention on what type of exercises that are needed on specific areas of the body. He makes his assessment and analysis on a regular basis then follows up the end result. He explains the principles behind each exercise, using different equipment, paying particular attention to my safety and getting an excellent end result. To my Trainer, Art Deak: I am so grateful and Thank You so much for bringing back my health, feeling positive and confident about myself again. "Health is Wealth" Sincerely, Evelyn Bayon, R.N. Owner/Administrator Benicia Angel's Home Inc. read more

Greetings. I am writing this review with no coercion, suggestion or request & so that is why you should read it! I have been a member of the Walnut Creek Forma Gym for a little over a month. I am extremely happy & feel I made one of the best decisions ever. I am newly relocated back to the Bay Area with previous residences in the Peninsula and Marin County so truly I am new to the East Bay & Contra Costa County. Now we all know when we move that we have to begin our search for a good grocery, a good mechanic, a good hairdresser, a good gym, a good everything. It takes time and inquisitiveness and so that is what I did , at least regarding the gym. From the onset, my welcome was genuine, thanks to Jessica. She walked me through all the options and did not pressure me at all. It was left up to me to decide if I wanted to become a member or if I didn't. Long story short, I did and am thrilled to be back on the road to health and fitness. The variety is incredible and all the instructors go out of their way to guide you through everything if you feel a bit intimidated. It's pretty obvious the members are happy judging by the amount of folks that are there on any given day. It's not over-crowded, there are plenty of machines so one doesn't feel left out. Although I am new & have only met a few friendly folks, I would encourage you to give this place a try. Trust me, I am ONE PICKY PERSON (so I'm told) so if they rate high with me, they'll rate high with you. One last mention....the cleaning/laundry staff are top notch. I always see them working hard--replacing towels, cleaning the locker room & very importantly, they look you in the eye and say hello. So far, I'm a lifer and not in the San Quentin sense! PS: Any suggestions for a good hairdresser would be greatly appreciated as I'm in dire need of help!!! read more

We have been this gym over 10 years and never pay the membership fee later. Somebody stole my credit card and the banker closed my older card and mail me the newer one. During this situation, first I told the front desk when I get the new card and I will give your guys right way. They don't care it and they changed me over $15 for late fee. Wow. This reaction made me to think....., and pretty bad. I am speechless. read more

Summary: Without a doubt, Forma is a 5-star gym. End of story. This gym is a true gem. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted promptly, treated kindly, and shown a level of customer service that is few and far between in today's marketplace. I've taken the time to hit a couple of points that really highlighted why Forma stands out from other run-of-the-mill gyms: Equipment: They care enough about their customers to not only have every piece of equipment you could possibly think of, but to have enough so that even at the busiest times, you aren't waiting in line to get on a squat rack. Also, they have a ton of equipment in an outdoor area for the days you want to get some sun and fresh air. Locker Room: Forma has a well-kept, clean, and high quality locker room. With a wet sauna, dry sauna, and hot tub, they have the perfect trifecta to loosen up after a long workout. Staff: Whoever is doing the hiring knows what they're doing. Every person I've met is friendly, welcoming, and competent. I've never had a single issue and can't say enough about the great employees. Parking: I've never had a single issue finding or fitting into a spot, even with the added challenge of parking a long truck in a Bay Area gym parking lot at 5:30 ! You can't beat that. Classes: They have a wide variety of classes. The yoga class I did was incredible. After a brutal day at work, I went in to stretch and relax. As the class was wrapping up, the instructor had us lay on our backs. She then proceeded to have us visualize our relative position to the universe. As I started to truly feel at peace, she sang a lyric-less song that transported me to a state of mind that can best be described as thoughtless euphoria. Truly one of the most interesting states of consciousness I have every experienced. This class alone has opened my mind to the art of meditation. Who knew a yoga class could encourage such open-mindedness and elation.. Forma is a great gym. Don't hesitate for one second signing up. They give a small gym feel with big gym amenities. You just can't beat it ! read more

This gym is the absolute best! Ive tried several gyms around this area and am drawn to Forma. It has everything you need to achieve your best workout and the classes are great. My whole family works out here. read more

Great gym. Clean. Profession staff. Josh was my sales rep and he showed me why I should be a member. Great people and I love my new work out gym. read more

Jessica is one of the friendliest people you have on staff. She has excellent customer service and I appreciate that she always answers my questions. My personal training with Darlene was the best personal training I've ever received. It was so thorough and engaging. And I'm still on her plan! This gym is fantastic.There is a great variety of exercise group classes to pick from. It's always clean and there are always machines available. Glad I made the switch to Forma. read more

Best gym, best yoga classes, very clean , very friendly. I just love going there. Thanks

I was taken for a ride in the Jiu Jitsu class. My son wanted to try the class, and a salesperson helped us with it. I asked several times about the cancellation policy, and the salesperson said there is none, and you can just call the day before. I paid over the phone with my credit card, and later that day my son went for his first class. Today, I tried to cancel, and was told there is a 30 day cancellation policy, which was reflected in the forms my son had signed the day he showed up for his first lesson. This is bait and switch, whether intentional or not. Beware! read more

I would have rated this gym 3.5-Stars but I'm giving it 4-Stars because of how much I liked the N. California location (before Forma took over the old Walnut Creek Sport & Fitness). It seems to me that the transition is now complete, as the owners has made a number of positive changes, and as members, we've had an ample amount of time to get a feel for things. So I will go through a number of areas that may be of interest to you, and hopefully I will have covered everything: Equipment: Has all of the basics. Several half-racks, a deadlifting platform, lots of machines, lots of cardio stuff upstairs. Could use a few more flat benches and adjustable benches, but they are pretty much maxed out on space. This would not be a problem if there were some clear rules on the use of benches (for example, I've seen members come in and use one bench for their gear, and another to workout on). The cardio equipment isn't the latest release or most up to date, but most machines are in very good repair, and are well looked after. Several of the treadmills are under air conditioning vents that blow freezing cold air on your head while you are sweaty, so while selecting a machine beware of the vents above. Towels & Housekeeping: The housekeeping staff is friendly and will generally give you space while working out. Towels are available in both small and large sizes, and are out in the open in case you need to use several during your workout. During the day members don't always clean up after themselves and leave towels hanging around on the ground, leave the equipment dirty and put things back in the wrong location, so it would be nice if housekeeping could be a bit more proactive on keeping on top of these things throughout the day. Locker Rooms: They did a remodel of the men's locker room at the end of last year. The finishes looked pretty nice, and I can tell that they put some money into the project, but I think they still missed the mark on some practical items. On the positive side, all of the lockers have digital locks (no need to bring a lock from home). The showers seem quite cramped (although they are now more private), and the faucets seem to always be splashing water all over the countertop, which housekeeping does their best to keep on top of, but seems to be a near impossible task. Community/Environment: It depends on when you come in. I think the club is friendlier and a nicer place to be during the day when it's quieter and trainers are with their clients. Most people pick up after themselves, but like most gyms there are a few guys who throw weights around, drop weights in cable machines, and leave towels all over the place (thank goodness they are a small minority). Like many gyms it seems to get busy between 4:30 PM and 7:30 PM, so if you don't like crowds, you can come in later or earlier, or try to figure out when rush hour hits. Price: I'm paying $89. I think it's a fair price. I don't like the 2-year agreement, but I guess I signed it, so I went in knowing what I was getting into. Overall: They way I see the gyms, Forma is really in the middle of the pack. Most 24 Hour locations are over run with people, and are too crowded to find parking, and even harder to find a piece of equipment to use. I will not be coming to Forma very often anymore, as I just joined Equinox in San Francisco which is on the other end of the spectrum. It has a lot more of the luxury touches, and is a much larger facility than Forma. Forma is kind of in the middle. They have classes included with the membership, digital locker locks, towel service, and plenty of available equipment to use, but the facility is not in the same condition or at the same level of luxury as an Equinox or even some of its local upscale competitors (Oakwood or Renaissance ClubSport). They get a lot right, but despite the remodeling, it is still an older facility. It seems to me that the management team is doing a lot of the right things, and $89/month is a fair price. It lacks some of the polish that more expensive clubs have. read more

Joined at the beginning of April and have to say I've never loved a gym quite like forma!! I moved from SF to Walnut Creek after getting engaged this year and quickly got sick of the meat market of the new 24 hour, and paying the parking meters at the old one! forma has everything i ever want and need! As an ex swimmer I love the pool, but cardio area is amazing as well....and surprising not over crowded at 5pm on a Monday like so many other gyms! Having racquetball and a Pilates studio is icing on the cake! Even though it's more expensive than 24 hour, it's Money so well worth spent! read more

Loved my massage by Kate. I received a 50 min deep tissue and her technique was phenomenal. She used a different approach and really focused on my areas that needed the most work. Specifically, I felt she did an amazing job at fascia release. I left the massage feeling very relaxed and with no tension or stress in my back. I was very impressed with Kate and I will most definitely be back! read more

Joined Forma about a year ago and I love this gym! Before coming to Forma I never enjoyed taking classes and did my own thing, however the classes here are awesome as well as their other program options. I currently take the Small Group Training (SGT) HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) and Kickboxing. All of which are taught by Monica who is amazing. She is an incredible trainer who knows her stuff, she makes sure your technique is perfect to insure safety and really knows how to motivate in a fun but at the same time serious way. I plan my schedule around taking her classes. She has also helped me with a nutrition plan and I have never been so in shape! Also, the gym is newly remodeled, is extremely clean and up-to-date with all the cardio/weight machines needed for people more seriously into weight training or not. Forma has a very friendly atmosphere and overall I find this gym to be amazing for all types of different people and interests. read more

The best thing that I can say about Forma is that I actually go there often! This is my 5th gym membership in the area. I have closed previous memberships because of lack of use. This gym fits my needs. The staff isknowledgeable, helpful and friendly. They have a very strong Pilates program with great reformer classes. The facilities are very good but the whole place looks better everyday as the remodeling comes to a close.They have a brand new spinning room with a huge virtual screen. I also use the outdoor workout space and the salt water pool. The patrons there are friendly too. This is a very unpretentious crowd, very down to earth. I am overall very pleased so far. I am feeling stronger and happier. read more

Many class options, great price for the area. Just moved to the area and I checked out the other gyms in the area but this gym has so much to offer and it's great. I felt right at home when I go there. It pushes me to actually go to the gym read more

I've been a member for quite some time. I loved the old club and I LOVE the new club! Its beautiful and well planned/executed. The staff is friendly and very helpful. Love Savanah at the front desk on weekends. Thanks for all you've done to make it such a wonderful spot in WC. read more

This review is more for their daycare though their facilities are great and so far I'm happy with my membership. The daycare is AWESOME purely because the daycare staff is outstanding. My kid loves it there and they always make sure each kid is well taken care of. I've never seen a baby screaming or unattended. I'm able to do my workout without stress or worry. It's really the most robust and attentive daycare I've ever seen in a gym. They do a great job! read more

Love this place! Our family has been members for years, and even with change of ownership, the place is still awesome. New weight room is incredible. Fantastic selection of classes. read more

My gym membership transferred over to Walnut Creek Sports & Fitness in April 2013, and then it became Forma Gym. I have totally embraced the transition, and enjoy the classes I'm taking. My favorite classes are the Pilates reformer classes. I have been taking Pilates on the reformer from Yuki Yoshi for about a year, and feel like it has had a big difference in my balance, core strength and posture. I had been doing Pilates for 6 years before moving to Forma, but find the classes here to much more effective. In addition to reformer, I take Pilates mat classes 3 days per week, spin classes twice a week, cardio core motion, and body power/pump 3 times a week. I find this combination of exercises to be wonderful for my back and general muscle strength. I am very happy with my exercise regime at Forma Gym. read more

I have been going to Forma since they first opened. It is by far the best gym in town, with the best trainers around. I've been training with SONNY MOON in her small group training classes, and it is like having 1 on 1 training! She always inspires me to do my best! She is so passionate about health and wellness and always has my best interest in mind. When I listen to her , I get results... I also love love love the new mind body studio! Now I don't need another membership somewhere else for my yoga! The vibe at Forma is always motivating and never pretentious . I love my gym! read more
