Like others, I can't speak highly enough about the club. The facilities are clean and the staff are…read morewonderful. From the folks at check-in, Liz who onboarded me, and Kae in the cafe. There's a 3 lane pool, every piece of equipment you could need, plenty of 'free space' to do your own routine, lots of saunas and steam rooms, cold plunge pool, business office, etc. In terms of members it's a big group - ranging from old San Jose families to new imports young and old. There are athletes, business people, families, and young adults from LG high school. Only a few days into membership so I'm sure I'll end up updating review a few times. So far the only changes I'd make are to somehow increase the parking lot (although there are plenty of creative places to park) and to dedicate one of the tvs in the lounge to Bloomberg (all four tvs are constant sports). Seriously, this place is a gem.

I've been with Mint Condition Fitness for over two years, and it's been a great experience. When I…read morefirst joined I was 64, out of shape and nervous about starting again, but the team made me feel completely comfortable. They really listen, take your history and goals into account, and build a program that fits you. And just when you get used to your routine, they give you a new one! To keep building on your progress. My coach, Michelle, has been amazing--supportive, encouraging, and always focused on safe form and steady progress. After a shoulder injury, (not gym-related), months of PT and then surgery,she and the team helped me ease back in and work on rebuilding my strength. It's ongoing. The atmosphere is friendly, positive, and completely free of judgment. Everyone--coaches and members alike--supports each other, which makes it easy to stay consistent. Now I'm back to working out with no restrictions and getting to feeling stronger again. If you're looking to start (or restart) your fitness routine, Mint offers professional, personalized coaching that truly helps you succeed.

I've been a part of Bay Club Courtside over the last 6mo's, and overall, I've been having a really…read moregreat experience. VIBE & AMBIANCE The space felt luxurious. It's a great spot for your classic gym work-out's, but also as a change in pace for those who work from home (there's a separate work space where you can also rent out private room). Noise level is typically lively. Parking in the main lot is difficult especially after work or at noon (during weekday's) and is generally packed during the weekend - of note, there's an alternative parking lot to the side of the main lot for Bay Club-specific parking (approximately 5min walk). SERVICE Service was friendly, overall, as you're typically greeted by those at the front desk, which is lovely. I'd say there is room for improvement for my tour/meeting with the membership director when I first looked at Bay Club Courtside, as it felt that my question's were more of annoyances and that he wanted the meeting to be over with sooner than later. STANDOUT DETAIL What stood out most to me was the overall atmosphere and vibe - it feels like I'm going on vacation to a resort everytime I enter (rather than a gym). I've never paid a monthly fee for a gym until now, and I'll say it's absolutely worth it! Overall, I'd highly recommend Bay Club Courtside!

I've been coming to SPENGA for about six months now, and I love it…read more Staff: They've built a real community at SPENGA. The staff are friendly and welcoming, from the front desk managers to each and every instructor. Each instructor has a different vibe -- and they're all great. From time to time, the studio runs different fitness challenges, which helps foster the community atmosphere. Atmosphere: The studio is set up into three different sections - one for spin, one for strength, and the other for yoga. The facilities are modern and very clean. It's nice! Classes: The signature Spenga workout is 60 minutes - 20 minutes of spin, 20 minutes of strength, and 20 minutes of yoga. The Spin classes ramp up in intensity based on your own performance over time through increasing your "sweet spot." This is nice because you can see how much you improve over time. After a SPENGA class, I feel like I've had a great workout and love that it ends in yoga. The mix of all three parts works so well for me. I'd gotten out of the habit of working out -life got busy. And SPENGA has been great for me to get back into the swing of things. I've gotten good results in terms of fat loss and physical performance. I can't wait to see what the next six months has in store. I'd absolutely recommend giving it a try if you are looking for a new fitness activity in Los Gatos.

Patrick is a one of a kind trainer. I'll start with that!! 5 STARS, HANDS DOWN!…read more I live in LA and was up for the week to visit my family. I was recommended to Los Gatos Strength and did my first session with Patrick in the am - and let me tell you, this was so much better than going to a regular gym. He's attentive and super hands on, exactly what most of us need to push ourselves to our fullest potential! Pat is a true fitness professional and really assesses what you need based on your goals, body type and strength. I highly recommend taking a session with him to try it out and then from there you'll make the best decision to sign up with LGS. You'll definitely feel and see the results if you stick with this type of training. I love that he holds you accountable which is so necessary of a trainer to all experience maximum results. Thanks, Patrick!

I have been now working with Patrick for about 4 months consistently. The workouts are perfect as…read morethey fit right into my work schedule as I am remote and can make it during my lunch break.

In summary come here if you would like to see the most gains out of your workouts a well as have someone who is both personable and very profesional.

I absolutely love this membership! Prior to coming here I have always been terrified of weights and…read moremachines etc mostly because they looked overwhelming and I didn't know how to use them. The trainers really take the time to teach you the moves/how to use the equipment with proper form. There are so many new movements I have learned from coming to these classes and I love it so we don't get bored of the same class every week. X2O elite offers small group classes as well as private classes which are both basically personal training. Since the classes are so small the trainers are able to focus on each person's movements and correct their form as needed. I have been coming here for a month and I already have seen a huge difference in strength. I have taken 2 out of the 3 trainer and I absolutely love Paris and Stephanie. They have such a positive energy and encourage us to finish our sets. There are so many times that I have to apologize for my swearing because these workouts burn haha. I can't wait to post some progress photos in a month or so. I'm proud of being sculpted by x2o Lastly, the studio is so cute and clean with brand new equipment and the trainers always have the best playlist to keep you pushing!! If you're thinking about signing up, this is your sign to do it!! You literally will not regret it. I promise you it's my favorite part of my day and it'll be the favorite part of your day too

I wholeheartedly give Grace, the owner and manager at Pilates Suite, five bright shining stars. I…read morehave been training with Grace for six months. It is important that I cultivate the Pilates Habit! as I have some fragile bones in my hip, an issue with balance, and for sure poor posture from fifteen years of writing at my computer. I am now conscious of my posture while at the computer, practice expanding my breathing most every day and squeeze my core muscles when I am walking. I find Grace in be a daily presence in my life as she inspires me to practice what she is teaching.. Every time I work with Grace, she is positive, warm, and consistent in teaching exercises to help with my issues. Grace is a great teacher as she can key into what works to help you learn. I have found her to be an amazing Pilates teacher with physical therapy skills. Grace is 100% focused on delivering a service and does not push sessions on you. Each time I take home my list of exercise which help me in my practice. Due to the fact I have deadlines on my book, she has been flexible with my Pilates schedule. Grace is skilled at adding in just enough to improve my routine but does not overdo it. I think Grace is one of the best Pilates teachers in the area and my MD is thrilled I'm making progress with the pain issues. I overdid it weight lifting but am now back to normal thanks to Grace!! The final benefit of working with Grace is that you get to work in a private room and can focus because there aren't other people around. If you are looking for a great instructor contact Grace for some fabulous training. You want an instructor who can help you develop the Pilates habit as you want to make it part of your daily life. You will Feel better and LOOK! better too!! Thanks Gracie for being the talented, wonderful, and inspiring teacher you are. Patrice!

If you are going to row you need to understand it is a commitment. There are no MVP's in rowing…read more The boat wins or loses as a boat. You are as good as your weakest member. As such when you are all in the same boat, you need to know that the person behind you and in front of you is as committed to the goal as you are. When you are neck and neck with another boat in the last 100 meters of a race, you need to know that the people in the boat with you are putting everything into winning like you are. Believing in your team mates is everything. Hence, the purpose should be to make the fastest boats. Unfortunately this program appears to be more focused on revenue generation. Kids that have been rowing for months are all of a sudden teamed up with newbies who don't know what an oar is. Kids don't show up for practice on a regular basis and because the focus is to keep the money coming in, the coaches acquiesce to the kids and blow it off. As such the kids who are determined, become disillusioned when rowing with uncommitted team members. In a program run by a school, if you miss practice, they bounce you. You don't show up, you teammates lose faith in you, and when you are fighting for that win in the race, they need to know you have put everything on the line. If you can't show up to practice, clearly you mind elsewhere. Being good at rowing will get you entry to great universities. I WISH there was a high school locally that had a rowing program. LGRC has coaches that have limited if any experience, appear to be in a transition in their life between college rowing and a real job, and even the experience is from schools with marginal programs. Redwood shores has better programs, Redwood Scullers, Oakland Strokes, NorCal rowing, if you want to drive 40 minutes each way.
