    Rogue Fitness B&R bar

    PAC has to be one of the most versatile gyms on the peninsula. This place is home to Powerlifting, Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, Olympic style weightlifting, Bodybuilding, Pilates, yoga...the list goes on. I've been able to try new things, break personal records, get stronger, faster, recover from injuries, learn from others all in this one place. I never had to alter my workouts because a piece of equipment wasn't there. The free weights go over 150 lbs with multiple sets. Different types of barbells From Rogue Fitness, Texas Powerlifting Bars, ivanko and specialty bars. Staff and members are what makes this gym so great. Everyone really gets along, truly a judgement free zone and people genuinely want to see you succeed. Bottom line, whatever your fitness goals are, PAC has everything you need to facilitate it. You just have to show up and put in the work.

    This gym is small quiet and perfect for gun shy individuals to build up to whatever fitness level they can achieve. It's got everything you need to get serious about lifting, cable machines, squat racks, smith machines and dumbbells. It's got enough cardio equipment and a variety of fitness classes and it's clean and well maintained. There is only one thing that bugs me about it, and that is that their new additional floorspace. It needs to be cemented and stabilized for heavy duty use, but it needs to be mentioned. If you are looking for an alternative to the over packed, over hyped 24 hour fitnesses and those others this is it. You can do anything you want here and when you hatch from your cocoon you will be a fitness butterfly.

    I've been a member at Pacifica Beach Yoga since January 2025 and it has genuinely changed my life…read more I could never stick to any regular exercise for more than a couple of months, but I've been going to 3-4 classes every week since joining, without fail. When I started, I felt weak and dealt with a lot of small aches and pains throughout my body. Now I feel so much more stable, balanced, stronger, and pain-free. The combination of Bikram and Pilates classes is excellent, and the two complement each other really well. Not to mention the added bonus of the heat - the sauna-like environment brings its own longevity and recovery benefits on top of everything else. The instructors are inspiring and the community is great -- honestly, a big part of why I keep coming back. I can't recommend this place enough! As one of the other reviewers said, a true Pacifica gem.

    I got the new client special and came here for a week of classes late in 2024. I loved my classes…read moreand teachers. Unfortunately, I am having a hard time to fit their schedules. But below is what my experience was. The owner is very friendly and funny. His dog is also a social pro. Studio itself is very clean and comes with a lot of amenities. I tried the hot yoga, power flow, and inferno Pilates. The hot yoga class is what you would expect. They got really good instructors for power flow and inferno Pilates. I definitely enjoyed the classes. If you live nearby, I would highly recommend this studio. they got super instructors guaranteeing a solid workouts

    I love love love this studio! It is truly my escape that I use to destress after work and is full…read moreof amazing instructors that are both knowledgeable and helpful. They also offer morning workout classes that get me energized for the day. I also love that they provide all of the equipment you could ask for like the basics of mats and blocks to the more extra things like straps, blankets, mat cleaner, etc. It really feels like a community at this studio and I highly recommend!!

    The Mats is a cozy little yoga studio that has become my escape for self-care. The studio space…read moreitself is a little small but I love how intimate the classes are! They provide quality yoga mats, blocks, blankets and bolsters so you can focus on your flow if you're new and don't have equipment. I've been attending classes here for a few months now and have found an instructor for every mood. Stephenie's evening classes are perfect when I want a slow, meditative flow. She gently guides us through poses and holds each one long enough for my body to fully sink in. I always leave her class feeling loose and limber. Joann's morning Hatha class is great for de-stressing. The sequences are simple but rejuvenating. We move through meditations and breathing exercises at a leisurely pace. When I want more of a challenge, I go to Josh or Tiffany's Vinyasa classes. They seamlessly flow us through faster-paced flows focused on breath and building up to more advanced arm balances or backbends. Both are so encouraging and help modify poses for all skill levels. I come out of their classes energized and empowered. Overall it's a gem for anyone looking to establish or deepen their yoga practice. I feel lucky to have discovered this oasis in my neighborhood!
