Trainers near Tarzana

“I’ve been coming to Strive Firness for about two years now. I really like that there are no class times. They have two sessions. One in the morning and one in the evening. You show up at anytime during either session and you jump right in to the workout of the day. I’ve never had to wait to join in even on a busy day. I love that the workout is set for the day. There are 11 stations and you rotate every two minutes. I really like how this is set up. Less for me to think about and I get a good work out in for the day. The trainers are great. They are there to help out and motivate you. Matt is so helpful and friendly and will help me modify exercises when I need a modification. Highly recommend this gym!“

“Circuit works is the best work out hands down! The perfect mix of cardio and strength training in the hiit class. And the studio has so many class options and amenities.“

“I feel so alive after a class at Platefit. They have multiple style classes and instructors are so awesome and accommodating!“

“Great instructors, great classes, lots of different times to choose from. 10/10 recommend. Great workout for any fitness level or age.“

“Purchased a 1:1 package for my wife for mother's day. One of the best gifts ever!
Micah and Ali are super attentive and unlike the big gyms, they do an initial assessment to review what you need vs simply what the client 'thinks' they need.
At the end of the 12 session pckg we decided to renew the session.“

“Zara is fantastic!! Incredibly patient and helping to heal old injuries. Never felt better“

“This gym is perfect for any beginner looking to start training martial arts. All the coaches are really chill and take the time to help you out, and they'll slowly introduce you to sparring before just throwing you in.

The Muay Thai and Jiu-Jitsu classes are both really fun, and I’ve learned a lot since I started. It’s a good place whether you want to learn self-defense, get in shape, or just pick up a new hobby. Everyone’s friendly and the environment is really welcoming. I’d definitely recommend checking it out.“

“Shawn has played an instrumental role in helping me clear my mindset and work through negative limiting beliefs so I can live a healthy lifestyle in all arenas - from sleep, to nutrition, to exercise. The mind training has personally been the most useful to me to lay down a strong foundation of wellness. He's also getting me to shift my perspective on exercising and I'm lifting heavier weights than ever! I always look forward to every session - equal parts therapy and training. He's also connected me with great resources like a sports massage therapist and functional medical doctor to check my labs.“

“Very professional and informative. I always feel better when I leave. The massage is so heavenly. Nick is one of the best physical therapist I’ve ever seen. Only after a few sessions, I already feel stronger!“

“Very interactive atmosphere that pushes you to be better everytime you come in. If you like tight knit communities and the chance to challenge yourself mentally and physically this place is for you.“

“Fantastic PTs with lots of experience and wonderful front desk staff. They're great with teen sports injuries.“

“I always hit up the morning classes to get my day started correctly before going to work. Coaches are great, shout out to Andrew, Janyce, Lacey, Alessandro, Alex & Chris. A quick ice bath after class preps my brain for the challenges of the day. 10/10 recommend“

“The best workout Pilates class I’ve ever taken in my life. Natalia is the best! My abs and legs are so tight after class. And such a clean and sanitary studio“

“I have two boys that attend Panther Martial Arts. Grand Master Shawn has a gift for working with children and bringing out out their confidence and boosting their spirit. My younger son, who has ADHD, participated for about a year. There were times when he wanted to give up and quit, but each instructor was able to help him to find a reason to continue. My older son just received his purple belt and is excited about beginning to assist teaching the younger age classes. Every instructor at Panther has been kind and compassionate and they all teach my boys respect, courtesy and commitment.“

“An incredible workout experience! The trainers are not only highly skilled but also thoughtful and supportive, and the community is so welcoming. I was hooked after my very first class and have been a consistent member ever since“

“My stepdad had a great experience at The Compound. The owner Paul couldn't be more welcoming and genuinely goes out of his way to make people feel comfortable. You can tell this is a gym built on real community, not just business. The space is great, parking is easy, the atmosphere is friendly, and it's clear Paul takes pride in how he runs things. If you're in Woodland Hills and looking for a gym run by someone who actually cares, this is it. Highly recommend.“

“Such a great Pilates class in a special part of Santa Monica! I appreciate your authentic joy and passion Nadia. Thx! ✨“

“I’ve had an amazing experience training with Mo. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and truly cares about his clients’ progress. Every session is well-planned, safe, and tailored to my goals, and he always takes the time to explain proper form and technique. I’m already seeing real results—not just physically, but also in strength and confidence. Mo is motivating, respectful, and very professional. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trainer who genuinely knows what they’re doing and delivers results.“

“My husband and I just completed a semester at The Study with Alexander as our trainer and it has been life changing.

The training we received from Alexander was completely customized to what our strengths, weaknesses, & goals were and it was FUN. He didn’t just train us, but educated us in a way that set us on a path to continue our health & fitness journey outside of our session. The coaching extended into more than just fitness but into our personal lives. Alexander is really dedicated to his clients success- even checking in post semester. This paired with the awesome nutrition coaching w Gabby has been invaluable! The nutrition guidance has been such a key element missing in my life. I feel so much better, more energized, focused, & my recovery after diving is much quicker!! We did regular in house body comp scans and we both saw great results without being overly invested in the results. The education and sustainability of our workouts was priority and we really appreciated that focus! Facilities are impeccably clean w/shower, sauna, cold plunge- everything you’d need. Plus easy parking lot.

Alexander, Gabby, Julian, & the rest of the team are great trainers/coaches who know their stuff… I feel truly grateful to have found such a top notch team and I look forward to another semester in the future!!“

“I came here hoping to build bone density, but I’ve noticed way more than that. I have seen my overall strength improve so much, even just with 1-2 workouts a week. Krista’s been my trainer for the last few months. She’s super supportive and motivates me to power through!“

“I purchased kettlebells and had a great experience! Jessica was communicative, answered all my questions and was very accommodating of my pick up needs! The equipment was wonderful and a great price! Highly recommend them for workout equipment!“

“The gym is so great, very affordable, the staff is excellent and the manager and MOST OF ALL TONY HERNANDEZ DEL OLMO is the most very kind person so helpful and so educated guy in this location. I’m very happy to coming in here 😊“

“Just want to say thanks Amanda, David and Tanya for always greeting me with a smile when I walk in, which instantly makes the gym feel welcoming. Maria and Mike are also great at saying hi and spreading good energy. It’s the little things like that that keep me coming back. Thanks for making it such a positive place!“

“I’ve been taking my boys for a year now and really seen a change in their speed and strength.“

“Title: DC FITNESS Experience: A Yelp Review Importance: HIGH Dear fellow fitness enthusiasts, Today, I am here to share with you my long-overdue utterly disappointing experience at the DC fitness, formerly known as Lord's Gym. While I still strongly advise becoming a member at this gym. Prepare yourselves for a candid review that will leave you questioning a couple things, especially how management (it's only one manager) manages DC Fitness. Point blank, you need to do better sir. I've spoken to the staff about the issues at DC and they are all in agreement that it is you who doesn't take care of half the issues mentioned below. I'll skip MOST of the issues and just address the main ones (I've spoken to many members about this and it seems nothing changes and they've personally complained to you too). I'm not a big yelper reviewer guy but it's at a point where enough is enough and something needs to be done/ fixed ASAP. Towels- Fix the washer and dryer, it's not that hard. Signs- No one cares if the machine is broken and the signs have a "DC fitness" sign on it, just fix the machine. Equipment- Get new equipment, not that expensive considering you guys are the Dream Center and CAN make it happen. Outdoor area- Refer to above. Staff- Amazing (expect manager). Restroom- Not bad (compared to other globo gyms) 7/10, used to be a strong 10/10 but lately smells like bad BO and piss. In conclusion, Just do better, DC Fitness is a hidden gem of a gym that houses some extreme fitness fanatics that don't mess around. It's welcoming, it's where bonds are made, it's where people come to get sh*t done. It's your standard no thrills gym, with old school iron and iron accessories. This is where Arnold would train if he was still at it like he used to be. BS aside, I've been coming here for over 10 years, when it was red and yellow with a stage still at the very bottom where the squat racks are now (get more squat racks). Get some more bumper weights, invest in good equipment (half of the bars at the gym are so bent and broken down). This has been and will always be my home gym, it is where I began my fitness journey and I know plenty of people who feel the same. Take some pride and ownership in your position with DC Fitness, there's hope still or step down, promote other more deserving people who actually care about the gym and the gym goers and let them take care of business. Be a better manager. Happy training to all. Sincerely, CJ“

“The coach at the boxing gym is strict but fair and he pays attention to everyone even the younger kids like me. He explains techniques clearly and makes sure we practice them the right way. Not just fast. The gym isn’t fancy but it has everything we need and you can tell people there take training seriously. Sometimes the workouts are tough but the coach always pushes us because he wants us to get better. I’ve already learned a lot and I feel more confident every week.“
