The Holy Spirit led me to leave this review today after being a member since December 2025…read more I praise God for how He is using Mark and Kat to help people become more physically healthy while also introducing them to what matters most--Jesus Christ. Their commitment to honoring the Lord through their business is evident. The facility is always well-stocked, the equipment is organized (unlike many public gyms), and everything is consistently clean and well maintained. It's a welcoming environment where excellence and care are clearly a priority. I truly believe the Lord will continue to bless Mark and Kat, both in their business and in their family, because of their faithfulness and obedience to Him. The Scripture that comes to mind is Psalm 37:5: "Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust Him, and He will help you." May the Lord Jesus Christ continue to increase your influence, bless your work, and grant you favor as you faithfully walk in obedience to Him.

I cannot say enough good things about Alyssa. She is awesome! From day one, she has been organized…read moreand intentional with every workout. You can tell she actually plans everything out instead of just winging it. What I appreciate most is how thoroughly she explains things. She breaks down the why behind each movement, corrects my form, and makes sure I understand what we are working on. That has made a huge difference. I can already see changes in my physique, which is so motivating. I feel stronger and more confident, and she genuinely makes me excited to work out. If you want a trainer who is organized, inspiring, and truly invested in your progress, Alyssa is it.

We stumbled upon this place with their 1st class free (you can book through mindbody)! They offer…read morea $99 one month unlimited trial so we signed up for it. The place is spacious compared to other workout studios I've been to in the area. The format is mainly 5 stations with an A & B exercise. You can start at any of the 5 stations & you'll do sets of the A workout followed by the B workout or vice versa. Monday/Wednesday is upper body Tuesday is lower body Thursday is glutes and abs Friday through the weekend is full body (this location isn't open Sunday so you'll have to hit up their other location) We've been going to the evening classes which are taught by Meghan. Who I'd say is one of our favorite instructors (we've been to two other instructor's classes). She's good with explaining and keeping time. She's also a good balance of being a cheerleader/"woo girl" or coming over when you're butchering the exercise! Be prepared to say hello & give your workout buddies high fives!

I've trained with Joshua on and off for over 10 years now, and he's honestly the reason I feel…read morecomfortable in a gym today. Before working with him, I'd mostly spend time on the elliptical and then awkwardly wander around the weight room not really knowing what to do. Josh actually taught me how to use the gym - now I lift, I get complimented on my form, and I love being strong! As a woman in my forties, I also really value how respectful and professional Josh is. He's never made things awkward, and as I've gotten older and my goals have changed, he's adjusted to meet me where I'm at. I'd recommend Joshua to anyone looking for a sustainable program - there's a reason I have gone back to him over the years.

Coach Joshua was an actual answer to prayer for our 12-year-old son! We had looked into many…read moreoptions to help our son with his posture, but none seemed fitting for his needs. We met Coach Joshua at the gym while he was training another youth, and when I asked for his business card it said "posture correction specialist"... the Lord provided! Since going to Coach Joshua, our son has developed better habits, he's become stronger in the areas that needed it, and he has become much more confident. To us, this is the most important outcome. Coach Joshua's character is solid, encouraging, and he truly cares for our son. This is the type of trainer you want!

Andy Shin changed my life…read more When I turned 40, I attended a Tony Robbins event and completed a life assessment. I rated nearly every area of my life a 10 out of 10 except one: my health. That was a 2. Five years earlier, I had been in the best shape of my life. Somewhere along the way, I lost my relationship with fitness. It wasn't just that I stopped going to the gym. I lost the motivation, confidence, and connection to the part of myself that enjoyed taking care of my body. No matter how many times I tried, I couldn't seem to find my way back. Then I met Andy through a friend. From our first interaction, his energy, presence, and genuine belief in what was possible made me excited to try again. As an Asian American man, seeing someone who embodied strength, discipline, confidence, and authenticity was deeply inspiring. He wasn't just teaching fitness. He was showing me what was possible. The results have been incredible. My body has transformed, but more importantly, I've rebuilt my relationship with health and fitness. I've regained confidence, consistency, and pride in myself. For the first time in years, I feel connected to my body again. I live an hour away and happily make that drive every week because the impact Andy has had on my life is worth far more than the time spent getting there. If you're struggling to get started, feeling stuck, or trying to reconnect with a healthier version of yourself, I can't recommend Andy highly enough. Working with him has been one of the best investments I've made in myself.

Kathleen and Grayson worked with me for several months to get ready for their wedding. They look stunning!

I made an inquiry on Friday evening and a guy name Joshua Tarnofsky called me on Sunday at 7:20PM…read moreand tell me that he is responding to my online inquiry. I politely tell Joshua that it is 7:20PM on Sunday and I am with few friends. Despite my statement, Joshua expects to continue the Sunday late evening call and I tell Joshua that I will call him the next day which is Monday. Then he asks me on when I can would call him back on Monday and I tell Joshua 9:00AM. Joshua tells me that 9:00AM does not work and he likes to do the call at 9:30AM. I told Joshua that I call him at 9:30AM on Monday. However on Monday due to fact that I went to doctor office, I didn't made that call to him as planned. So Joshua calls me again on Monday at 3:00PM and I text him that I can't talk at that moment and he text me back and ask when we can speak? I text him that I will call him on Tuesday at 9:30AM. He responds to my text as follow: "K-Don't forget!" and I respond back as "I try". On Tuesday, he text me again at 9:13AM and tell me not to forget to call him at 9:30AM!!!. So I call him around 9:38AM and he does not answer. About 15 minutes later, he send the following text: "Hey Reza, thanks for the inquiry. I don't think you are a good fit for what we are offering as we desire to work with people who are eager and committed on making changes. When you feel that you reach that level, you reach out and we can revisit the conversation at that time. Thanks" Funny how this guy thinks that I have to drop everything on Sunday evening or he is entitled to talk to me when he wants it. When a sales person acts like this, it shows a level of desperation, lack of respect for potential client and Joshua clearly is demonstrating that he does not have the patience for 1v1 or group training and having patience is one of the key essential criteria for a trainer and training as a trainer has to work hard with different sets of group of people with different health and fitness goal. So I am curious and I looked at Joshua profile at their website and I see that Joshua claims that he is a Certified Personal Trainer "CPT", RKC Kettlebells and Yoga Alliance Instructor. Since I had two private yoga instructors for a while, I try to check to see on what kind of credential Joshua has for yoga as all Yoga Alliance teacher are registered at https://www.yogaalliance.org The name search for Joshua Tarnofsky at Yoga Alliance website leads to no name match for his name which probably means that he is obviously misrepresenting the fact about his yoga credentials and perhaps among many other things in his profile. While I did not train with Joshua or workout at this gym, based on my interaction with Joshua, I will recommend that it is BEST TO STAY away from this gym. A truly deserving "0" star for this place but I stick to "1" as that is the lowest I can go.

Not your average gym in Orange County. This place is unlike anything you have ever seen...

Frank was extremely professional throughout our entire program - He put together an individualized meal plan based on my goals, and helped me achieve something I hadn't been able to do by myself in a long time. Through working with him, I went from 197 to 179lbs. Frank is very knowledgeable when it comes to fitness. I tore my MCL halfway through our program, and he immediately knew how to adjust my exercises so that I could keep from re-injuring myself while staying fit. Frank is a real go-getter and is truly committed to being the best trainer possible. Throughout our time together, he studied for and achieved an additional certification, showing his dedication to serving his clients. Frank has motivated me to become a better version of myself, and has sparked a lifelong commitment to my fitness and health, which I am truly grateful for. I highly recommend Frank as a personal trainer!
