I've been going to FIT Brea since last year and it's been an amazing experience. Andrew and the…read morecoaches design workouts that are challenging, well programmed, and never repetitive. The environment is supportive, and the programming is perfect for people of all ages and fitness levels. The workouts push you to become a better version of yourself. If you're serious about reaching your fitness goals, I highly recommend checking out FIT Brea.

I'm so thankful I found FIT Brea! Over the past several years that I've lived in the area, I've…read morebeen a part of various gyms (both chain and boutique) nearby. Having now experienced FIT Brea, I'm definitely kicking myself for not trying this gym out sooner. I've only done their group fitness classes so far, which range from 8-12ish people in size, and I'm looking forward to trying out the personal training sessions when my schedule opens up! Here are a few ways that make FIT Brea a standout: COACHING: The coaches here are the whole package! 1. They all have stellar credentials, with many of them holding advance degrees and multiple certifications. In short, they know their stuff. 2. At the risk of sounding facetious, I just want to make the point that the FIT Brea coaches actually coach. It might sound like a no-brainer, but it hasn't always been my experience that coaches do much more beyond demo-ing the moves and saying "good job" or "keep going" every few minutes, especially in a group class setting. Here, the coaches constantly move throughout the room to offer individualized pointers on form, differentiated movements depending on individual strength and mobility, alternative movements for injuries, and encouragement and motivation to keep pushing so I can get better and better. 3. They are all super patient, encouraging, and welcoming! PROGRAMMING: The programming for the group classes are thoughtfully and methodically designed. From what I can tell so far, the workouts are structured in mesocycles with a progressive overload pattern. This is important because if we do the same thing over and over, our bodies will adapt and we will not make appreciable gains over time. With progressive overload, our bodies are constantly challenged so that we can keep increasing strength and improving hypertrophy. COMMUNITY: The FIT Brea community is so nice and helpful. I felt welcomed by the coaches and the other patrons from day one. Several people who recognized that I was new introduced themselves and helped me find and set up various equipment. Others even put my plates and dumbbells back during transitions. Just last week, the whole class broke out into spontaneous applause and cheer when I pushed out that last rep of bench press, haha! The mutually encouraging environment really underpins the whole vibe and experience here. It's a special thing. MANAGEMENT: One of the things that I didn't realize would make a difference in my overall gym experience is having direct access to management/owner. In my past gym experiences, the questions/concerns I had would typically have to go up a chain of command before I got a response. Since FIT Brea is owner-operated, the patrons can directly talk to Andrew, the owner, who is so nice and provides exceptional customer service. SPACE/EQUIPMEMENT: It's spacious, well-maintained, clean, and an overall pleasant environment to train in. CLASS OFFERINGS: I'm a busy mom who works full-time hours plus daily commute. I'm thankful that classes are offered as early as 5am and as late as 6:30pm so that I can get my training time in! If you are looking for a gym where you can optimize and maximize your fitness goals (whatever they are), look no further because FIT Brea is it! I'm a serial Yelp sleuther and almost never write reviews, but my experience thus far has so far exceeded my expectations that I felt compelled to share this gem of a place with others!

His favorite part of the week is going to ASP for an hour and working with other kids and the coaches. We love that the drills and exercises they do are fun and challenging. All of the coaches are helpful, encouraging, and knowledgeable. You can tell that Coach Sean, Coach Sid, and the rest of his team love what they do!

F45 Training Yorba Linda is an exceptional fitness studio that delivers a premium workout experience from start to finish. The coaching staff is truly excellent. Every coach is welcoming, highly knowledgeable, and deeply attentive to form, which helps new clients feel confident! I have experienced this across the board from trainers, Misty May, Tammy, and Vicky. They bring incredible energy to every session, keeping motivation high for everyone in class, while ensuring everyone exercises safely and effectively. The morning classes, especially resistance program days, are so packed! The studio is very clean and organized; the workout floor is neat and clutter-free. This pristine cleanliness extends directly to the bathrooms, which are always fresh, well-stocked, and perfectly maintained. In fact, my 4-year-old toddler mentioned that he loves the bathroom! I love that the equipment and machines are modern and functional for workouts. For example, this studio has squat racks, which I know other F45 studios do not have. It makes it easier to do the heavy back squats programmed on these racks than to clean the barbell and put it on your back for a back squat. Even the cardio machines are top-tier and fully functional. F45 Yorba Linda seamlessly combines elite coaching with a premium, hygienic environment. It is the perfect place for anyone looking to challenge themselves and reach their fitness goals. The F45 program is very structured, and F45 Yorba Linda is the perfect studio for anyone looking to challenge themselves and help execute all their health and fitness goals.

The Adventure Lagoon felt incredibly misleading…read more I was planning to take my kids to the beautiful Splash Park at Castaic Lake, but my son told me Adventure Lagoon was a better deal because it advertised $35 for the day. When I arrived, the employee asked, "Do they want the water park too?" I replied, "That's why we're here." She then told me it was an additional $10 per person. What wasn't made clear is that the $10 only covers one hour. After getting inside, I learned you have to keep paying for every additional hour. For comparison: Castaic Splash Park 2 kids = $70 total Parent = free Adventure Lagoon (calculation based on 3 hours - though I chose this place to come for 4 hours since it was advertised as same price for all day) 2 kids admission = $70 Water park fees = $60 Parent admission = $35 Total = $165 So instead of spending the day at a beautiful lake surrounded by nature, we paid more than double to be at a small water park surrounded by warehouses. The website prominently advertises the day rate and has a big "BOOK NOW" button, but the hourly water park fees are not made clear upfront; you have to literally scroll below the pricing and "Book Now" to see them. See here - https://www.theadventurelagoon.com/pricing I don't mind paying. I do mind feeling misled. Unfortunately, they lost us as customers for life.

We've been going to this school since they were in Fullerton, and they've always been great. My daughter started with Mr Nori and he's one of her favorite instructors. She's gone through a few instructors and we've never had a bad experience. My son now attends the school too. This morning, my daughter had a make up class and had to go into a different swim lane with a new teacher. She's been apprehensive about leaving her current school and starting kinder next year, and the emotions came out today. She started crying and holding onto me when she saw the new lane and instructor and said she doesn't want new things. Within seconds, Mr Scott came over and began comforting her asking if she'd like to see her other instructor Mayumi. Mayumi wasn't even dressed to go in the water, but rolled up her jeans and sat in another lane with her. Mr Nori came by to say hi and comfort her, and Mr Christopher gave her a private lesson for a few minutes while she adjusted. He eventually asked her if she wanted to join him in the new lane with the new instructor, and she said yes and was happy the rest of the time. Mayumi also came back to check on her. This is the level of care any parent looks for in a school and I highly recommend coming here.
