When I first started working out with Parand, I had exercised sporadically over the years but nothing really stuck. My scheduled work-outs with her helped me get into the best shape of my life and begin to incorporate fitness as a regular and ongoing habit. Over this time, I also lost about 20 pounds and significantly increased my overall strength and flexibility. In the beginning, I took private classes as honestly I felt too uncoordinated and out of shape to work out in front of other people. Over time, I then graduated to her group classes. Both formats I enjoyed and found helpful. Parand has a wide repertoire of workouts, and it's always interesting. Parand is also just a lovely human being. It was always great to catch up with her during my classes. If you are trying to find new ways to be active, I really recommend starting with Parand as a first step.

This gym is the cleanest, and the most peaceful and aesthetically pleasing club I have ever…read morebelonged to (I have been a member of many Equinox gyms in the past). The owners and the staff are amazing. The equipment is pristine. I love the fact that it's adults only. The co-working space is another huge perk and has everything you need to camp out for the day. The infrared saunas and massage chairs are on point. Parking is easy and plentiful. The views of the bay are amazing. The fitness classes are good, but if you are a yoga buff you might find the schedule a little sparse (I used to be a member of the Bay Club and their class roster is a lot better, IMO). I think this is because there is not a dedicated yoga studio, so it is shared with other group fitness classes. I am no longer a member of Evexia because it's just too far to drive to (I live in Novato). I lived closer I would still be a member. Message to the owners: please, please open a club in Novato! The options here are sorely lacking. The Bay Club has gone downhill and I refuse to pay top dollar to be a member at any of their locations. I know you can do better!

I think this will be the first review since they were closed from December 8 to December 22 for…read morerenovations. First off, this isn't my home gym. I only come to this one because of the location when I'm visiting family in the Bay Area. When you think of Sausalito, you think upscale, well-managed, personable, and impressionable. Not really the vibe I got at this Anytime Fitness center. You should have stayed closed until everything was cleaned up and ready for a grand re-opening. I came in the other night when it was pouring rain and, to be honest, I wasn't not really impressed with the new set-up compared to what it was before. When I first walked in, I was immediately met with the smell of sweat, some other funky stale odors, and just an overall feeling of cringe and ick. Let's just say I've been to better gyms that actually make a conscious effort to feel welcoming when you "badge in." The storage cubby area for personal items was overflowing with water bottles, sweaters/jackets, workout towels, and clothes balled up in the corner that have just been left there. Primary source of the smell, I think. No accountability, no apparent care for cleanliness. FAIL!!! A side office door with a "Redlight Sauna Therapy" sign next to it was off the hinges with boxes inside, in plain view, that I can only assume were left there from the recent renovation. Floor mats at the front entrance off to the side that weren't laid down and interconnected, just stacked one on top of the other. The color palette is bland and not energetic. Grey and White? Seriously? Stick with the primary brand and accent colors: Blurple, Purple, White, Red/Orange, and Green/Turquoise. You should know this! Where's the "Inspiration Wall Board" for members to write words of motivation for other members? The brick and mortar "Anytime Fitness" logo wall with supplements is also gone/missing. If this was meant to be a soft opening, you missed the mark entirely. I'm not Joey Swoll, but overall, I'd say "you need to do better." So what's changed, positively? There's a new gym set-up/floor plan from when I was here last year, 2024. The spin class / group training studio is no longer there and has been opened up to include 4 new squat racks, a cable pulley machine, and flat bench rack. On the other side, it's still very much the same with the mirrored wall and free weights as well as the purple turf training area with TRX bands and medicine balls. There are two new treadmills, I think. The track mat/belts feel a little flimsy and could use some tightening. The massage chair room is still there. 4 unisex restrooms, only one has a shower. I loved coming here before the renovation, but now, I'm not so sure. You have a lot to improve on and make better in order to make me ever reconsider coming back here.

I want to highly recommend Maria Molina as a personal trainer at the Bay Club, Marin. I initially…read morestarted working with Maria to recover from a knee injury. I wanted to strengthen my leg muscles so that I could return to playing tennis. As someone who is over 80 yrs old, I was somewhat skeptical that weight training could make a big difference in my athletic abilities but one year and half later of training with Maria and I believe I'm more physically fit than I was in my 40's. Everything is easier (i.e., walking up stairs, carrying heavy loads, keeping up with grandkids ,etc.) To say my quality of life has improved due to my work with Maria is an understatement, Maria is a consummate professional. She explains exercises clearly, pays attention to form and keeps sessions motivating and enjoyable. One day when I was lifting weights on my own at the gym, a gentleman commented, "I see that you are experienced with weight lifting, Your form is perfect. You must have been doing this for many years." I give Maria full credit for teaching me the right (safe) way to lift. I occasionally have a few sore muscles but recovery is quick after a workout. Probably the most important thing I've learned from Maria is to believe in myself. Sometimes she tries a new exercise that I think is impossible for me to achieve, let alone master. Her confidence is unwavering and has a profound effect on my mental attitude. I see few women my age working out with weights at the Bay Club. I hope this review will encourage someone who is considering personal training to contact Maria. You will be amazed at what you can accomplish with her expert guidance.

On my tour, the employee was so nice, but the facility itself was a big turn off. Bay Club is a catch all gym, from kids and teens running in the halls, to older ladies that never sweat but wear their teeny outfits while they hit on young guys, to rude people sweating all over equipment and not wiping it down after. The vibe gave me the icks. The women's locker room was dirty, with wet towels and trash scattered about. The members don't keep the area clean, and the staff isn't quick enough to clean up these gross items left strewn about. Needless to say, I didn't join Bay Club.

We're at different fitness levels, but they've created customized workouts that challenge us both and keep us motivated. We always leave our sessions feeling stronger, more energized, and never once regretted showing up. The other thing that makes CaliTraining so unique is the location. You're literally training on a dock over the bay, with seals swimming by and boats in the background -- it's like nothing else in Marin. It feels almost surreal that this is where we get to work out. Over time, we've also become part of a really welcoming, down-to-earth community. We've met great people through the gym, and it's made our fitness routine something we truly look forward to. If you want a personal training experience that's thoughtful, personalized, and set in one of the most beautiful spots in the Bay Area, this is it. We can't imagine our lives without Jesse, Scott, and CaliTraining.

Her classes are very balanced, a true full body workout-she never focuses too much on one area or neglects another. They're also varied, so each class is different than the last one. They're also very accessible-she consistently provides variations on poses to make them more challenging or more accessible. Deanna's positive attitude, patience and supportive nature are definitely worth noting. Her classes always feel like a safe space to try new and challenging poses (or take a break when you need to). They're fun too-Deanna's got a great sense of humor. She's also very present and available during and after class for assistance, advice, whatever. I always leave Deanna's classes in a better mood with much more energy. I would recommend her to anyone-beginners, or people with much more advanced practices. She really is the best :)

I swear the 1.5 hour just flew by haha. And of course, I gotta mention how extremely, super duper nice she is. I mean she is very, very genuine.

What sets Shanti apart is her whole-body, natural approach. She's not someone who pushes a Western medicine fix for everything--she's incredibly attuned to the body's natural rhythms and honors the simplicity and wisdom of how we're built. She challenges me in the best ways, always pushing me toward actual growth while being emotionally supportive and truly caring along the way. And honestly--her approach works.
