Unfortunately because this is the best location, everybody in a 20 mile radius wants to show up at the exact same time turning the parking lot, front entry, and weight room into a clusterf**k. Therefore, the best way to actually enjoy your workout is to show up just in that critical timeframe just after all the WFH people's lunch break ends and before the jocks get out of school. If you can get in this location outside of peak hours, everything is quite clean, somewhat spacious, and the staff are always friendly and outgoing (thanks Ian for the swag). My only issue with the Winchester location (really all EOS locations) is that when the gym is full of mouth-breathing muscle heads and climb-milling influencers, the air temperature gets out of hand. Please for the love of God crank the A/C and fans during peak hours. Sometimes this place gets hotboxed worse than several of the cars in the parking lot pre-workout and I mean with the smell of a$$ not weed...well maybe it's both. Fix the ventilation issue and I think this is probably the best gym in the area.

Not once did I feel uncomfortable or out of place. It genuinely feels like a sisterhood in there. The class was definitely hard, but it ended up being one of the best experiences I've ever had. Alyssa was my instructor and wow, she brought exactly the energy I needed to start my day. She kicked my ass in the best way, and I left feeling strong, empowered, and proud of myself.

I'm stuck paying for it even to today even though I joined March 23rd went 4 days in total and canceled on Easter. First of all, if anybody's wondering there's no free trial. It's $25 just to show up even though other locations will give you a free trial. This one will not because they know how they are so they want to pressure you to join so they will tell you $25 to go for one day or $55 to go for a week. Sounds like a great deal, right? Not so fast because as soon as you sign for your credit card to get $55 a week, you're actually in very deep because I've already paid over $400 for my four times going there. I initially was planning to go to revamp my body because I have done that before but me being a older mother with children I told them I did not want to go into a contract until I saw that I can commit to their schedule because their hours are very extremely limited. Like literally they only have the latest class in the morning till 9:30 and two evening classes before 7:00. You know so for a parent, the classes are almost inaccessible unless you wake up super early because they're like literally when we're taking our kids to school or when we're making dinner and doing homework. Anyways, coaches were nice but I got injured from the first day and I kept telling them I was injured and I could not continue to hurt my legs and for the next three classes I took they continued to insist that I hurt my legs so I could not go anymore and now they're punishing me for that and I hope everybody else does not do what I do and just sign up because literally once they have your card in your hand they literally put you on a contract that you do not get in your hand. It's literally a signature pad on a credit card. I really had high hopes for this gym. I had really good luck at diamond cut fitness. You can see my review on there. I had a good weight loss. I wanted the same thing from this place but they pushed me too hard and it's so messy on this gym. Nobody is communicating. Everybody is a different person every time you go and nobody actually listens to what you say about pain they will push you beyond your limits and act like it's your fault.

Ski-Ergs have been a great addition to our cardio arsenal.

I was shocked to see that this place has no reviews yet, so...allow me to be the first!! I went in last night to check it out.

He gave me a tour, explained what classes and various memberships they have, and got me in for a trial HIIT Fire Kickboxing workout for 9:30am this morning. It's a women's class, but Coach Fernando said they are going to turn it into a co-ed class soon since they aren't getting enough women coming in for it. I went in anticipating the intensity that any HIIT Fire workout brings, and mannnn, it really was FIRE!! Coach Alex was there when I came in and greeted me right away. He told me a bit more about the gym and said I could use the equipment they had to warm up before the class (I was actually early, lol)! Once it started, Coach Fernando ended up doing a one-on-one with me since no one else showed up. Yay me!! Hahahaaa!! He was great at teaching me the basics, and went over side stepping, the jab/cross/uppercut combos I am already familiar with, as well as other drills. I was really into it and didn't get any videos of myself in action, but Coach Alex got me on video so I may be up on their IG stories lol... After stepping into the ring, we did some bag work on the sidelines and then ended up doing some ab work in the front room. I got my workout in today fo sho!!!

They closed the water area every 30 min to allow the next group of people in line in. But before they did that the lifeguards wiped down all areas of the play structures. It was a process but nonetheless the kiddos had a great time. Luckily, I had extra clothes for the grandkids to change out of, otherwise we would have to play in the dry playground while hearing and seeing the kids enjoy the Splash Pad. The playground has their rules and regulation posted on the gates. The restrooms are just outside of the play area, so very convenient. There is nice green grass in some areas and some picnic tables and stationary benches. I believe on of the rules is that you cannot set up canopy's, but I did see people set up a couple. I don't know if they have someone police the area if people are abiding by the rules. It wasn't a bother to anyone but I'm sure there is a reason for having that rule. The play area is nicely padded. The play equipment is nicely spread out where you could really view your littles as they run free with your close eye on them. There are different areas with equipment that is age appropriate. For sure I would return. Plenty of parking, it is clean and the grandkids and I love it here!

There is a cute little shop attached to the sanctuary, where you can buy their handmade truffle chocolates which are so delicious (coming from someone who isn't a fan of truffle chocolates), fresh farm eggs, honey, and other delicacies. With your zoo "ticket" you get 2 free samples of their chocolates and a hefty bag of feed for the animals. The animals are mostly in their own pens, with some together. There's even a couple of the pigs you'll find out of pens, just hanging out on the property, laying beside the building. You're able to go into the tortoise pen and feed/pet him as well, 2 people at a time inside the pen, as he does get anxious. You're not able to feed all of the animals, but for the most part you can. Each pen has a sign for which animals are ok to feed/pet and which are not. They are very calm and friendly, as long as you are too. They take the feed very gently and don't bite your fingers. On the weekends they offer pizza made fresh for the visitors, and have plenty of covered outdoor seating options to enjoy.

Our boys have spent the majority of their training with Coach Dienekes, and we can't say enough about him -- his guidance and dedication have been a huge part of getting our oldest ready for his competition in two weeks. On top of that, Professor Tom still made time for a private lesson with him ahead of the comp, even with how busy he's been prepping other students for their own competitions. Above and beyond doesn't even cover it. You could feel how much care and love for the sport both coaches pour into these kids. The facility itself matches the quality of the coaching -- spacious, well laid out, and always clean and organized, with dedicated areas for the different classes and even a lounge for parents.

From the first day, it was evident that the team was focused on developing comfort and confidence in the new students. They were both immediately assigned to an experienced student who made them feel relaxed and walked them through both the drills and lessons over the next few days. They quickly went from being a little scared of joining a class full of students with varied experience levels to requesting to attend class every day of the week. Of all the extracurricular activities they had tried, this was the one that ignited their passion the most. The professor, Tom Cronin, and the entire team of coaches do an excellent job of keeping the kids engaged by balancing expectations with both fun and recognition. They have a great sense of each student and how to motivate them to excel. They also steer clear of pitfalls we were warned of by friends who have children attending other academies, specifically promotions based on attendance as opposed to merit. At this gym, the children are evaluated on their skills and ability to execute the requisite moves. This encourages them to excel instead of just casually participating. Within 9 months they had developed enough confidence to compete and we were blown away at how well they performed against the competition from around the country. Most importantly, they had a coach prepare them the week before with one on one training and he was the one who attended the competition to coach both of them through all of their matches. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly for us, the academy doesn't just teach them BJJ, it reinforces core behaviors that we expect from our children - Respect, honor, and community. At the end of the day, we are all trying to raise the best humans we can and I can say with absolute confidence, that this academy is an integral part of that process for our children. I absolutely recommend Carlson Gracie, Temecula to anyone with any interest in Brazilian Jui-Jitsu.

i started the new years probably at the lowest point in my life after going through the worst year…read morei had ever experienced in 2025, but i told myself i truly wanted to learn fighting specifically muy thai, as i was already heavily into fitness and becoming a master of my body, i started a free trial on the second of January showed up and my body was crazy tense and i was incrediby uncordinated as ive never played a sport before, I just knew weight training. fast forward two months the level of my body cordination as well as muscularity in my body has blossomed ive never felt more powerful in my entire life, going here would boost my confidence to new levels i didnt even know existed for me as i was already a confident person, i even learned stretches i didnt even know existed and became a lot more well versed in using my whole body. Glutes, hamstrings, shoulders, and traps transformed going and training here, it transformed me like nothing else has in my life, if your on the fence or have never tried fighting in your life please just go, all the coaches are extremly friendly and understand excatly where to take you from a complete beginner, and nurture you into becoming a master, id like to say they have my upmost respect and praise as im doing very well in my life as of writing this, a complete 180 as to what i went through last year. Thankyou Beau you made me fall in love with the art and beauty of mma. The journey for me described in one word is "beautiful" -Lucas

I can't say enough on how Dan Henderson's gym improved my boys life. My boys went from timid,…read moreuncoordinated, scared of everything even a ball, very soft boys to Confident, motivated and strong boys. The gym affected every area in their life. They can play dodgeball and kickball which they couldn't before. They don't get bullied anymore and still are able to keep their kind and gentle demeanor. It wasn't easy at first they hated the gym the 1st, 5 months but I told them, they had to give it a year. Now they love the gym and they are so happy have the skills set. They are still white belts and will probably never be fighters but they are no longer cowards. The atmosphere is a close group who all are very kind, and patient, yet the best of the best fighters who are tough but humble. Love the coaches Joe, Sam, Trevor, Louie all of these guys do a great job encouraging these kids. If you have a kid who is weak, scared of a ball, completely uncoordinated, take them to Dan's give it a year make them go faithfully at least 2x a week to jujitsu or wrestling and they will make your child have confidence and courage. It will improve their future. Don't worry your kid won't become a jerk they stay humble. I can't thank the Dan's gym enough on how my boys improved.

This place is like the gym Average Joe's in the movie Dodge Ball (except not the good guys, just…read morethe average part). They have some great instructors, but unfortunately the members create an atmosphere of insecurity and fear. If you show up with any experience, confidence, or heaven forbid are good looking, in shape, and not religious, then you will be hated like you're a Globo Gym member. Not only will they hate you, they will begin to spread lies and rumors about you and give you dirty glances. We witnessed them allow a member to continuously cause trouble, disobey the rules of the mat, and disrespect other members of the gym and the instructors and manager never did anything until after 9 months of not paying his dues they finally kicked him out. This guy was over 6' tall, 270 pounds, tattoos on his face... he was intimidating. He was also a very poor sport, no sportsmanship and no regard for etiquette. He threw tantrums when he didn't get submissions in jiu jitsu, he was always challenging the upper ranked belts to prove himself, he tried to start physical altercations with professional fighters at fight night, he tried to start fights with my husband threatening him through text, and they even allowed this member's young son to accost little girls in jiu jitsu, making creepy comments to them, and bullying other members of all ages, much like his father. There is a heavy Christian influence pervading the place, which seems to encourage the negative behavior. They forgive the bully over and over which punishes the victims. That member was just one example of the culture at large. Be aware of the groups of women who are there every day who act like they own the place and bully around doing what they want without consequences, acting like their membership doesn't cost the same as yours. If you want to go back to high school but pay for it, then this is your spot.

I was shocked to see that this place has no reviews yet, so...allow me to be the first!! I went in last night to check it out. I met with Coach Fernando after a killer workout I had at another facility. I first heard about Legacy from my former coworker. He gave me a tour, explained what classes and various memberships they have, and got me in for a trial HIIT Fire Kickboxing workout for 9:30am this morning. It's a women's class, but Coach Fernando said they are going to turn it into a co-ed class soon since they aren't getting enough women coming in for it. I went in anticipating the intensity that any HIIT Fire workout brings, and mannnn, it really was FIRE!! Coach Alex was there when I came in and greeted me right away. He told me a bit more about the gym and said I could use the equipment they had to warm up before the class (I was actually early, lol)! Once it started, Coach Fernando ended up doing a one-on-one with me since no one else showed up. Yay me!! Hahahaaa!! He was great at teaching me the basics, and went over side stepping, the jab/cross/uppercut combos I am already familiar with, as well as other drills. I was really into it and didn't get any videos of myself in action, but Coach Alex got me on video so I may be up on their IG stories lol... After stepping into the ring, we did some bag work on the sidelines and then ended up doing some ab work in the front room. I got my workout in today fo sho!!! This gym is squeaky clean and you can also do group classes with Coach Derek Soro, find him on the gram: @coachdsoro I'll be seeing that guy to take one of his classes very soon. Got a chance to meet him last night and he is going to run it hard, I already know...if you see his stories on the gram, you'll know what I'm talking about! If you're looking for a place to let out that frustration, wanna kick and punch some bags and have the option to lift some heavy weights, this is it!! You'll feel great afterwards and have fun doing it!! What are you waiting for?! Stop by or give them a call NOW and tell 'em I sent ya! ;) @legacyboxingandfitness

Others only seemed to offer group karate lessons to the "masses" and I never felt like my child received any individual attention. With Z-Ultimate in Murrieta, Sensei Pierce offers Shaolin Kempo Karate and provides all his students with the basic understanding of all the animals: Tiger, Crane, Snake, Leopard, and Dragon which all have very different postures and focuses on a more traditional approach. There's always an uplifting and positive "quote of the week" listed on the board in the dojo, we're always greeted when entering, phone calls are always returned within the same day. Sensei Pierce has always been accommodating in rescheduling private sessions due to vacation schedules. The most important part is my son enjoys going. He's met a ton of new friends, he's more responsive and better behaved to helping out at home and over-all- a happier child. He's learning discipline and different self-defense techniques while enjoying it at the same time. ***Added side note--- The karate studio is located right next to a major grocery store, two Chinese restaurants, a Mexican restaurant, a subway, an Irish pub, etc. So you can always grab a boba drink and do some light grocery shopping for your night's dinner while your kids are doing karate. ;)

My 6 year old son has been attending classes here for months. He has attended classes elsewhere,…read more including Krav Maga and we have been VERY happy at this studio. Family operated, Renche, Sheehan or sensei (Hope I spelled each of those correctly ) greet each family individually and are very professional and respectful people. These lessons will not only teach your children self defense (which they do) but also focus, control and respect. There is a stripe system in place for promotion testing but as far as I can tell it is also determine d based on child's ability and behavior as these are key to training. It appears to me the stripes are a tool for the instructors to gage where a child should be after a certain amount of time. I have seen some children qualify to test for their next belt early so the stripes are definitely not THE qualifier for this.
