    this is a nice little gym. It's tucked in a residential neighborhood and parking can be a…read morechallenge. The staff is awesome, the coaches take time to work with you. They get 4 out of 5 since the place is older, equipment is rusty, but 1/2 the gym is open, which makes you feel like you're in Costa Rica or a place like that working out. ITs also small, so when you're comparing gyms like this, you have a few other CF gyms that are the same price, but massively bigger. Its fun to drop in here, but I dont see myself becoming a regular member here.

Every session begins with a friendly, social atmosphere that makes you feel part of the community right away. The members are welcoming, supportive, and encouraging, no matter your fitness level. The workouts are challenging but progressive, allowing you to grow stronger over time. Every movement is scalable to your individual ability, and there's never any judgment, only motivation to push yourself and improve. I've always felt like part of the family, whether during workouts, community BBQs, the CrossFit Open, or other social gatherings. For the price, what you get here is exceptional: expert coaching, a well-structured program, and a culture that drives real progress in strength, muscle development, and overall fitness.

    Description: Group fitness studio offering 45-minute HIIT…read moreand circuit workouts (and the workouts change everyday!) in a spacious, mirror-free environment Location: Located along PCH near Dana Point's Doheny Beach and can easily be walked to if you're in the surrounding area. Plus, it's next door to one of my fave pizza spots aPizza Doho, perfect if you want to treat yourself after a good workout Workout Format: Classes rotate daily between Cardio and Strength (Upper and Lower) sessions. Each station is guided by TV screens showing every move, so you always know what to do, with trainers circulating to help as well Trainers / Instructors: Everyone here is super friendly! We even had a class where it was just the two of us, and the instructor Elle was still super engaged, even participating in the workouts with us to keep up motivated! Vibe & Community: Lots of positive vibes and high fives from members and instructor. Plus the no-mirror setup takes away the self-conscious factor and keeps focus on the workout itself. Facilities & Cleanliness: Very spacious compared to some other F45 studios (we've been in some pretty odd shaped F45s so being in a studio that is not cramped and oddly laid out is nice). Perfect For: People who want an engaging workout. If you easily get bored with the same routine, F45 is perfect for you as everyday is something new! Parking: Street and plaza parking. When the plaza gets busy though, parking can be kind of a pain (plus some of the spot are pretty tight) Promos: They've got a an intro offer of $30 for 3 classes, perfect for checking out a few of their class types to see if F45 is right for you!

    This gym is pretty cool. They give you opportunities to try it out before you commit. Instructors…read moreare great and actually coach form. The classes are varied and stay interesting.

The coaches are top-notch: knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in helping everyone improve both on and off the mats. The gym itself is always spotless and well-maintained, which really shows the pride and care the staff put into the space. The atmosphere is unmatched -- there's a strong sense of community and family vibes that make you feel welcome from day one. Training here has not only improved my fitness but has also been a huge source of stress relief. It's helped me manage anxiety and stay positive even on tough days. Jiu Jitsu here isn't just a workout -- it's therapy, growth, and connection all in one. Couldn't recommend this place enough! Oss!

    Highly Recommended!…read more I'm new to Jiu Jitsu and was a little nervous walking into Peaceful Warrior Jiu Jitsu in Dana Point--but those nerves disappeared quickly. From day one, the instructors made me feel incredibly welcome and supported. They all take the time to break things down in a way that's easy to understand, and they genuinely care that you're learning the right way. What really stood out to me is the vibe in the gym--not just from the coaches, but from the other students too. Everyone I've trained with has been patient, helpful, and encouraging, which means a lot when you're just getting started. I've been going for a few weeks now and already feel like part of the community. If you're thinking about trying Jiu Jitsu--whether you're brand new like me or experienced--I can't recommend Peaceful Warrior enough. Great people, great instruction, and a truly welcoming environment.

    I previously gave GritCycle in Dana Point a 3-star review due to my experience the non-instructor…read morestaff, which I stand by. However, after attending seven more classes, I'm updating my rating to 5 stars because the instructors do everything they can lead fun/hard classes. They crush it every time and always bring the energy. The workouts are great and the music is good. I leave sweaty and feeling a nice release of endorphins. The studio is clean, well-located, and has plenty of parking. Booking and checking in through the app is easy, so you can avoid the line at the front desk. While some of the non-instructor employees appear to be teens who lack customer service experience, others really are helpful. The instructors make up for any shortcomings.

The element that initially threw me off is how dark the room can be, but it makes it extra more dramatic when the beat drops and the lights change. Adds to the vibes. The bathroom is also very well equipped with wipes, spray on deodorant, showers etc, and pretty clean. There are plenty of lockers and cubbies in the lobby. I liked how spacious the bathroom, lobby, and locker area is, making preparing and leaving class more accessible (some studios are very cramped). The one thing I noted during the class is that it got very warm, and the fans weren't on. I think if the fans were turned on, it would have made this a 5* experience!
