    Literally the best place in Culver City. Period. The space is spotless, super-warm and fun. Every…read morestudent there is supportive and kind, and all of the instructors are helpful and encouraging. In just a few months I've watched myself really grow in confidence and abilities thanks to teachers like Hurricane, Serena, Candy Cane, Nisey, Anesia, Tish and *of course* every single student. If you're looking for a challenging but fun workout, check it out. If you're looking for a good time with cool people, check it out. If you're looking to gain more balance, strength, sex-appeal and confidence, check it out. Hard warning thought, it's dangerously easy to become a regular, so look into those contracts.

    I bought two classes for my roommate for her birthday. Nowhere on the website does it indicate any…read morespecification for gifts. My roommate shows up to take the class and they won't let her take the class despite showing proof that it was paid for and informing them that the classes were a gift. Then, they wouldn't REFUND the class or allow a reschedule, saying "well technically it's used" even though they didn't let her USE THE PASS. Then the manager comes out and is rude, saying "I'm the manager, this is MY store." Manager is rude. Tried redeeming the classes before the 30 days. Really, they just want to take your money. Don't come!! Save your money! edit: i appreciate the apology and your independent review of the footage. however, it was communicated that the class was a gift for her birthday and when asked if the class could be rescheduled or refunded, it was indicated that it was technically used despite being denied entry. While i appreciate that a refund was offered after sending an email, i too wonder how many clients were turned away from reasonable resolutions. changing the review to 2 stars for the apology and refund. wishing you a good rest of your week and better luck with communications in the future. edit 2: upon further review of the reviews left before, it seems like a common practice to enforce unreasonable attendance policies and citing "camera footage" evidence that only management have access to when confronted with reports of unprofessional behavior. seems at least some staff struggle to treat customers with dignity and respect (as a customer do your own due diligence to deduce why they may treat some customers better than others). all in all, probably better to take classes elsewhere but that's just my opinion.

    This place is amazing. I've been going for a couple of months now and have tried classes with…read moredifferent apparatuses and instructors, and while not every apparatus is for me, all the instructors have been fantastic. Classes are tough but accessible and attitudes are encouraging. I am an absolute beginner. (Or I was, a couple of months ago, when I started. Now I'm an absolute-minus-a-whisker beginner!) Not only that, I've never been particularly strong or successful in physical activity, or well coordinated, or confident. This isn't just the first place I felt a complete lack of judgment, but the first place that has actually let me develop physical skills. Never been able to do a push-up before and now I can do a few in a row. Never climbed a rope, but I can (almost!) climb a silk. Something else that really stands out is how much instructors pick up on your movements. Several times, I've been given suggestions about how to improve based specifically on how my body works, like trying something first with my left side because I'm left-footed, or the fact that I have some hypermobility. I knew there was something different about the way I moved, but that's the first time I had a word for it. Believe is a great place to learn. The atmosphere is welcoming, encouraging, and accepting. While every class is definitely a workout, it's more like an activity. It's fun and challenging, and writing as someone who has join several gyms and dreaded every workout... I look forward to going every week.

    This is a great dance studio I'm sure. But I came for the infrared sauna. And let me tell you, this…read moreis probably the best infrared sauna studio I've ever been to. And I've been too many of them. What makes this one special is the attention to detail and the very personal customer service. The studio is extremely clean, I mean, impeccably. All of the towels smell fresh, all of the floors are freshly polished. Everything smells delightful. The sauna is top notch. It has a large infrared light bar, but it also has very strong, infrared light around the sauna otherwise, and on the ceiling of the sauna as well. and this one, you are also able to adjust it to other types of light such as blue, green, Amber, etc.You are also to control your own levels of heat. There is a television with prepaid Amazon prime channels. The Bluetooth speaker inside the sauna is loud and crisp, and of course you can control the levels and channels with the remote. The gentleman who helped me is named Ken. He gave me a nice tour of the studio upon arrival, and then showed me how to operate everything. He was extremely helpful and kind.Another nice thing is this sauna is very large. I was literally able to stretch out and recline. I think this will be my go to infrared sauna spot.

The owner is very understanding and will hear your concern and even offer a complimentary class or refund which I have appreciated on occasion.

The instruction is too fast with too many steps and it's hard to get individual attention if you don't get it right away. The owner is nice and it's laid back but as a super beginner, I don't think I was set up for success here.

Made my entire trip worthwhile. While drop-in classes are super expensive ($45 each) I can't imagine how much building rent in LA would be for businesses, so checks out. This was a few months ago from writing this review, but I took classes with Christine, Peppa, and Ran. Some of those instructors don't teach at Jagged anymore, but the quality was consistent across the board. First of all, I would not recommend taking 3 classes in a row. I was excited to be there, and it was my only opportunity to visit during my trip. I love how Jagged utilizes their small space to simultaneously teach pole and aerial or stretch classes. Instructors truly cater to the level of their students. They're SO strong and talented! I found each class to be sufficiently challenging, and the community is wonderful too. I walked out, filled with so much happiness and adrenaline! Make sure to bring plenty of water and arrive early because street parking in Santa Monica is awful. I look forward to coming back to Jagged and trying more classes. There's so many different types and levels--something for everyone. They even have a first-timer special so you can try your first class for less than the full drop-in price.
