Took a RUN X LIFT TOTAL BODY CLASS through class pass! ( 15 credits ) This place is really expensive but it was super fun to do! They had nice bathrooms and overall facilities ( two floors, smoothie bar, gym, and males locker room on the first floor + women's locker room upstairs). The women's bathroom was luxurious! It includes ouai shampoo, body wash, conditioner, lotion and soap, and Dyson hair dryers. There are three showers and around vanity space for around 3 people.The smoothie bar outside the gym was a cute addition but the smoothies are quite pricey. I tried the CHOC FULL OF PROTEIN and it was not bad though i wouldn't pay $12 for it again. Staff was super welcoming and open to teaching newbies like myself! They explained their routine consisting of 2 cardio sessions and 2 lifting sessions. The workout was fast paced and intense in the best way and you will definitely get a sweat in. You can go at your own pace as well so don't feel the need to push over the limit. The atmosphere of pushing yourself with others is super motivating and it was all around a great experience. - protein smoothie bars available -bathrooms + lockerrooms (showers) available -lots of lot parking read more

Super fun and amazing workout!!! 1/2 the time is treadmill running. Instructor would tell you to pick up the running speed to 6,7, or 8 but if you can't run like me. I would run as much as I can and then slow it to a jog or speed walk. Go by your own pace. 1/2 time is weights with different exercises. Dumbbells are located against to the walls on the right and left side of the room. The heavier ones are on the left side of the room. Lighter weights are on the right side of the room. We would swap back and forth. From running on treadmill to weight workouts. Instructor would be on his mic and telling us the exercise. Ambiance in the room is really dark but with red lights. Pretty cool to work out in. The gym offers towels for when you sweat. We had a live DJ in the room on the Sunday!! That was pretty cool! Check in early because I had to fill out a form on their computer. There are lockers to put belongings on the right side on the first floor. I like that between classes, there is someone cleaning the equipments and mopping the floor. Upstairs is are more lockers but it's only woman's locker only. There are 3 shower rooms. I love that especially if you're sweating you can just shower and be nice and clean. This gym offers so many amenities like big towels for after showering, body soap, shampoo, and conditioner, face wash, hair dryer, deodorant, q-tip, body lotion, etc. There are metered-street parking. 1 hour parking 9am-6pm except Sunday's. Sundays are free parking, which I didn't know until I got there and was grateful for that so I didn't have to pay. I don't know if there is free parking behind the building or anywhere else. That would be a bit expensive if you're going to this gym every day. There is a restroom upstairs. read more

The workout is challenging. I was consistently dripping sweat throughout the class. The class consist of combination of running on the treadmill and strength training with weights/resistance bands. Pros + Parking is free for 90 minutes + amenities!! Showers, ouai shampoo/conditioner, hair ties, etc. + lockers on first floor and upstairs for women's bathroom. no locks needed Cons - the classes are expensive. Wish they would be more affordable, even with ClassPass. - AC was not working that day I went. Instructor mentioned that is not normal. So he had to open the doors for air. Can't wait to return! read more

I first tried Barry's a very long time ago at the Irvine spectrum- maybe close to 15 years ago and I loved it. Fast-forward to 2020 when I found out that it was opening up in Pasadena I was really excited to get back into it. I work locally so I was even invited to the opening party but it was the week of the pandemic shutdown and due to personal reasons I didn't get to return regularly until last fall. I've been going once a week for over 6 months now so I can give a thorough review. I've lost about 10 lbs but gained lots of muscle endurance, and confidence. Staff 10/10. Very much a community feel. Everyone is friendly and helpful. Instructors are solid. Matt is my fave. Facility- amazing. Equipment is great. Always feels clean. Love the locker room and amenities. Workout: Challenging and well rounded. Energetic motivating vibes. Good music. Iconic red lighting. Additional great things- smoothie bar, special events/partnerships, motivating challenges, plenty of parking in front and in back, good overall location, lots of sales/specials, easy to book and check in on app. read more

Eric is my favorite instructor across all the different Barry locations! Love the Pasadena location the most because of him. This location has plenty of parking in the back and feels bigger than others since it has an upstairs. Perfect part of Pasadena to be in so you can grab a snack after a great workout read more

I've come here a number of times over the years, and my opinion has definitely changed. My first time a few years ago, I honestly found the class scary and hard to follow. I wasn't familiar with a lot of the strength exercises, and everything moved so quickly that I didn't feel like I had enough time to figure things out safely. I also struggled on the treadmill because even the lowest numbers the coach called out felt too intense. Fast-forward a year or so later, after really focusing on my fitness, and now I LOVE it. The fast pace that once overwhelmed me now keeps my mind from wandering, and the class flies by. I love how quickly we rotate through stations because I don't even have time to think about being tired. That said, I don't think this is a great class for total beginners. It's basically Orangetheory on steroids. But if you have some experience working out and using free weights, I highly recommend giving it a try. I love the lighting, and all of the instructors I've had have been super positive and motivating. And my favorite part: walking out of class to find the smoothie bar waiting with little samples. It's such a nice touch! read more

I LOVE THESE WORKOUTS!!!! my first time was extremely difficult but it felt so good after!!! All mentors are amazing. It's never crowded and always so clean!!!! An hour of working out at Barry's makes your whole day read more

The instructor was great but I think this type of class just wasn't for me -- if you like the intervals/running portion you'll like this!

oh my god I LOVEEE this location so much, I originally took a Barry's class for the first time when I was in miami over thanksgiving break and loved the environment and how the classes were set up. When I got back to LA, I downloaded class pass and took a free class at this location (pasadena is the best in the LA metro area in my honest opinion.) I bought the packs that were offered for first timers and the timing was great because I then bought the winter sale pack. if you wanna save a lot of money I recommend buying classes during the winter sale. As Lindsey always tells me, people usually regret only buying one of the winter sale packs (6-month). I am one of those people right now haha. I only bought one and I only have a couple left. Learned from that mistake and I'll be buying two this year. I love the trainers here, genuinely I never thought I would have the connection I do with them, shoutout to Erika and Logan!! love them so much!! Their classes are so GOOD! In my opinion they are difficult, but like in a really good way... the movements feel amazing and i'm always inspired to push myself during each class. The staff at this location has a special place in my heart. Lindsey, you are a literal shining star . full of positive energy and you give 110% to this location. I love Barry's. This location specifically is my favorite, I love seeing the familiar faces and the energy here is unmatched. I've been to the studio city location but it just does NOT compare. read more

Barry's Pasadena was SO MUCH FUN!!! I'm usually at F45 and this was a very nice change but still within the HIIT domain. Loooove the red room - it's such a vibe. We took class with Scott who was so encouraging, energetic, and motivating! I would come back to take his class. We took the lift and run class - split into two sections of weight lifting and treadmill running. You alternate between the two areas and sign up for a spot on either side to start. The instructor will tell you what sets of weight to get or make recommendations on the speed of your treadmill. It's all very easy to follow. The treadmills are really nice! State of the art, very grippy, and very responsive. If you're a runner, you will love these. I also loved that the benches for weight lifting were really low - a nice height for petite girlies! Everyone is very friendly here and we're all dying and it's dark so a very safe space for beginners and up. My advice is if you're new to weightlifting, I'd recommend reading up on proper form and using the lightest weights so you don't injure yourself. There isn't much time for the instructors to give individualized cues because they're giving directions to two different workout stations. Barry's was a party! Can't wait to come back. read more

Always a killer workout! Facility is clean and well maintained. You can park for free for 90 minutes in the back. Instructors are awesome but they go QUICK. If you are a noobie, no worries, feel free to do it at your own pace. They have towels for you and their shampoo and conditioner are great amenities. The cleaning staff is wonderful too. read more

We loves barrys! We typically come here once a week for Logan or Moses' class. Both amazing instructions who bring so much energy to the class. Give their classes a try when you can! read more

I enjoyed my Barry's workout here, the treadmill is my favorite part! I do not like doing abs though haha

Barry's Pasadena has become a second home for me. Every location has it's vibes and never disappoints, but this location is extra special to me! These faces have been through so much with me and I can't speak to the level of gratitude for them. The coaches are incredible: Anna, Matt, Maggie, Logan, Erika and Ianthe deliver every single time! The management leaders Roger and Lindsey invest in this location like it's their own. It's clear the love they have for Barry's Pasadena when you see them go over and beyond for us!

Logan is the best trainer ever! So encouraging every step of the way, there were moments I didn't know if I could keep going. But, Logan knows how to get the energy flowing in the room and make you feel like you can do anything. This was my first class and I will absolutely be back! Such a great workout! read more

Barry's is a fun HIT workout class. Located in Pasadena and has a free 90 mins parking lot in the back. I booked a Barry's class through class pass to try out. The facility itself is well maintain and clean. I went to the front to check in to the class since it was my first time. The staff was really friendly and went over how to use the treadmills. Once the class starts, you walk inside this dark red room filled with treadmill and weights stations. The music itself can get pretty loud in class but they do offer ear plugs in the front. There's a towel for everyone to use at their own station which is nice. The instructor was Matt, he was very energic and encouraging us to push ourselves. The class is a 50 mins HIT class where there is cardio & weight training . It was such a fun workout where I sweated a ton and burned a good amount of calories. Amenities: There's lockers outside of the classroom where people can place their personal belongings. No need to bring your own lock, the locker itself are the ones where you can set your own 4 passcode. There are also lockers in the restrooms as well. The shower amenities are pretty nice as well, there's OUAI's facewash, body wash, shampoo and conditioners for you to use. There are clean towels, leave in conditioners, lotion, q-tips, bobby pins and a dyson hair dryer. The women's locker room/shower was one of the cleanest facility I've ever been to for a gym. There is a smoothie bar in the front as well where you can order. I have not tried it but I'll get it next time. Overall, it's definitely a class that is worth trying out. I can't wait to be back to take the other classes. read more

Since I started my fitness journey, Barry's was one of the studios that I didn't want to consider out of sheer intimidation. My girlfriend recently visited and offered a nudge to try one of their classes, and I scheduled my first session after I ran out of excuses. I booked through ClassPass, which was quick and easy, but prior to the start of your first class, they ask you to fill out a few quick questions on their IPad. The receptionist called my nerves as she added. "Don't worry, it's not as bad as you think." I totally needed that. The room itself is equipped with a wall of treadmills, weights on opposite sides, and individual stations in the middle, where you alternate from cardio to weights. I appreciate that my instructor, Erika, offered descriptive verbal cues/transitions, and demonstrated each exercise. Also, the sound system is phenomenal. You never miss any directives, but dare I say that it's so good that I totally lost track of the instructor and where she was demonstrating? Definitely a fantastic issue to have, especially when there's a superb music playlist. The women's restroom is located upstairs, if you can make it after. Half kidding, and it's equipped with several showers, Dyson hair dryers and a variety of OUAI products (shampoo, conditioner, hand soap and lotion). Plenty of lockers there and downstairs while you wash up or workout. The parking lot is bustling, especially in the afternoon, but it's free 90 minute parking. Will definitely be back. read more

This is a great workout class. If this was the only thing that you were working on, I would recommend taking this class at least 2-3 times to feel productive. It's a 50 minute class that starts punctually every time. Half the time, you're on the treadmill either walking, jogging, or sprinting. The instructor will tell you what speed is recommended in easy, medium, and hard difficulty. The other half the time, you're doing floor workouts with a bench. There's dumbbells and resistance bands that are often used in the workouts. It's nice that the instructors are motivating and will sometimes spot you to ensure that you're doing the workout right. Fuel Bar: The protein shakes are quite pricy at about $10-12. You can order them before your class and have it readily made by the time you complete your workout. I got the Matcha Made in Heaven. It's not bad but it was my first time trying one of their drinks and I thought that the protein powder taste was quite strong. Amenities: There's lockers with a passcode that you can set yourself. It's really simple and there's large and small lockers to put everything you need. They offer mini things to assist with your workout such as hair ties, mints, and ear plugs if needed. The bathrooms are also really bright and clean. Parking: There's a huge shared parking lot in the back. It's free for the first 90 minutes which is perfect, since the class runs for an hour. Pricing: It's quite expensive to get a consistent membership here. It's roughly over $30 per class. This is the biggest con that stops me from getting a membership, but I try to use promotions and ClassPass. read more

I did my first class today and let me tell you... it definitely won't be my last! I booked a last minute class at the Pasadena location. The whole morning drive to Barry's was gut wrenching. I'm an avid gym rat but this cardio thing is foreign to me. I was greeted by some extremely attentive and courteous staff members right when I walked in. Alex was incredibly welcoming to me as I hung around the fuel bar. Kathrine checked me in and walked me through the entire process. I felt like such a beginner! However, she made me feel at ease and was there every step of the way. She definitely went above and beyond for the 10:50am class! While doing the workout, I absolutely loved it. Regulars aren't lying when they say to go at your own pace. I took that advice and powered through the 50 minute class. Scott was the trainer for this session and he was incredible. Not only was he motivating, but he also creates that encouraging "push-you-to-your-limits". I walked out with my back drenched. I want to give a big thank you to all the staff members and a shoutout to Barry's business model. Keep up that high standards of fitness. You guys are doing the world a favor. I'll be back soon! read more

first time to Barry's in Pasadena recently! The staff was so nice and welcoming!

I went on Lunar NY and was very impressed with how they celebrated it (1 free class + free drink). The class was too intense for me (first timer). I was able to keep up with 50% of what they did. Basically alternating running and weight. I was really tired and didn't feel the most fun out of the exercise. The location is very clean. There are spacious parking lot. It's free for 90 mins but just park. It's pretty small and there was 1 red room (exercise room). Female lockers are on the 2nd floor. There are only 3 showers and 2 toilets but somehow they were never overused when I went. Free small and large towel. High quality shampoo, conditioner, etc and Dyson hair dryer! Staff was very friendly! I'd recommend this location. read more

Wow what a workout! I usually don't really get a real sweat on - but I certainly did during my last visit to Barry's. What I liked: - They have professional cleaners wipe down the machines and equipment after class so you don't have to - The locker rooms were fully stocked with showers, towels, bathrooms, lockers, deoderants, and just most of anything you'll need - I liked the music they played during my class - There were free fizzy drinks after class - The instructor must have a roster sheet of everyone's name, because he definitely gave some personal encouragement like "Nice Joanna" a few times throughout the class - FREE parking (90 minutes only) in the parking lot in the back What I didn't like: - Their lightest weights are 15-pound dumbbells. I know it doesn't sound too heavy, but it was too dang heavy for me. - The volume of the music/microphone was a little too loud for me - like I like a room that has loud music and being screamed at to work out - but my ears actually hurt inside that room. - One of their main hallways from the locker room to the entrance of the classroom is very narrow and before/after class there's a lot of bumping into people read more

Get ready to be drenched in your own sweat. A fitness class consists of 50% treadmill and 50% strength training. We alternate between the treadmill and floor for 4 segments. The muscle group focus depends on the day of the week. At the end of the workout, there are optional cooldown stretches. Each person is assigned a spot to start at. The class takes place in what they call the "Red Room." It is a dimly lit room with red lights and loud blasting music. There are lots of dumbbells, bars, resistance bands, etc. All the equipment looked clean and well maintained. The instructor was very energetic, encouraging, and pushed us to be our best. Everything you'll need is provided. There are lockers, towels, hair ties, soaps, lotion, and more. They have a fuel bar with creative shakes and boosters. I tried the seasonal pumpkin spice shake and it was delicious. I recommend going to Barry's if you are looking to burn lots of calories through both cardio and weight training. It is high intensity and very fast paced. The staff here are super friendly and welcoming. read more

Barry's will definitely get your heart racing through the workout! It's a really amazing class. What I don't like about Barry's is the fact that I don't feel like they really pay attention to people's forms, which can cause injury. The class is super expensive as well, but luckily your first class is free if you decide to check it out. Their amenities at the gym are also amazing. Everything is pretty clean and they've got top tier products in their restrooms! If fitness is your thing, it doesn't hurt to try a class out, especially since your first one is free! read more

I love this place. I started here in late May and I wanted to wait a whole month before posting a review. The instructors are great and the classes are challenging and fun. It's easy to register for classes, you do it through the Barry's app. I am so happy and glad I found Barry's. Within a month of attending, I have a lot more endurance and can run a lot faster and longer. I feel stronger too. I plan to keep coming back. Lindsay in the front desk is super friendly and personable. She was the first person I met at the gym. read more

Overall, good but instructors can be hit or miss. Erik, for example, is phenomenal. Ianthe in the other hand is really terrible. She talks way too much and lowers the volume of the music when she speaks, which is extremely distracting. Do not recommend her class. read more

Imagine going to a Hiit workout and a edm festival at the same time. Yes, Barry's is a tough work out but well worth it. When I am feeling the challenge, I will sign up for Barry's. It's half strength training and half cardio. Many may not realize but they have extra ear plugs, hair ties, and hair pins by the check in counter. I have sensitive ears so whenever I do come, I do grab a pair to ensure my ears are in good shape! Always enjoy coming and getting a work out in here! read more

Yes the teachers are great and the work Most is fun. however this yelp account is now a BARRYS STAFF STAN ACCOUNT. The folks who keep this place running are truly incredible and on point. They are always so on top of things from answering emails on time, checking people in, opening lockers, managing the teachers and telling them about celebrations. The service these people give is truly next level. I'm super impressed with what they are capable of doing and I give them a ton of respect. The only negative I'd say is that I really need that Costco sized Oribe lotion and I can't find it anywhere read more

I've been struggling to get a routine with my workouts. I decided to try Barry's just to get one good workout in and after my first workout I got hooked! I've taken 6 classes already and it's just my second week. What got me hooked? Well, first the red room. The lights and the music just get me hyped. It's a party in there. Next, the instructors are so motivating and really know how to push you without putting you down. Scott was my instructor for my first workout and I loved that he showed me how everything works in the room before my workout started so that I knew what was happening during class. It made my first class jitters go away. But all the other instructors are also great!! Why I also love this place... umm it's expensive. You have to cancel 12 hours prior. So once I book, I gotta go cause I can't waste my money. Besides the fact that it's fun, this also keeps me so accountable. Love the workout style, the vibes, and the staff! I'm already booked for the rest of the week. Thanks Barry's Pasadena!!! read more

I had the pleasure of attending a trial class with Scott. He was great and had tons of energy. The place itself is super clean. They do a quick deep cleaning in between classes, which is appreciated since it's a sweat and burn type of workout. They have tons of weight options to choose from and they run the class very well, splitting larger classes into groups in order to maximize space. My only gripe is the noise level of the music and the instructor. I understand that you want to keep the energy high with loud music, but when the instructor is mic'd up and yelling over the music it can be ear piercing. We were informed there were ear plugs in the lobby after class had started, so it was a little too late for me to leave just to get some. Good to know for next time I guess. They also have a really nice smoothie bar with tons of recovery options. I would be mindful of the calorie count on some of their smoothies though. Overall, I had a nice experience and enjoyed my workout. read more

I'm writing this via dictation because I cannot feel my legs, arms, or anything in between. Not only was Logan a pure delight to be tortured by, but I feel we really bonded over discovering muscles in my body I did not know could feel pain. I felt challenged, well-guided, educated, and terrified of future staircases. My gym plateau became the base of a new mountain. One that I'm sure Logan would make me sprint up. 12 out of 10 would go again, had a blast. read more

Limited schedule but if it works for you, the place is newer than other studios. Like all Barry's, really depends on the instructor and I really enjoyed Mercedes! The red room is somewhat spacious but not compared to Venice. Treads are newer than those also at other studios so again a plus. Men's locker room is a bit tight with a small area for the lockers which is a bit annoying but manageable in the end. Everyone there is super nice and accommodating for those who have been coming for a while and those who are new! Parking is easy in the back so overall a good spot to get a legit workout in! read more

I've been to a few Barry's locations and I will say this is probably my favorite location. The team is really kind and it's always so clean! That's a big one for me.

During COVID, I spent a lot of my fitness time running, doing home HIIT, strength, and cycling - so I was excited to try out fitness studios in the area that put all of that together (three years into the pandemic!). I've done a couple of Barry's classes in the past, so I walked into this one sort of knowing what was going to go down, but still got crushed in the end anyways especially with the sprints! The instructor was top notch, as always, and able to cue both the floor and tread groups perfectly without any confusion. The music was very motivating as well. As for the facilities, the Pasadena location is gorgeous! The amenities are SUPER clean. There's also a smoothie bar that you can place an order ahead of time before your class and they will have it ready for you by the time your class is done. Free sweat towels to use during class as well. One thing to note is that for COVID precautions, while they do check vaccination cards, they do NOT enforce masks in class. I would say that a total of 3 people including myself were wearing masks. The class also seemed to be at max capacity with very minimal distancing (the first tread group is the largest). You also move from tread to floor without sanitizing in between. Knowing me, I would probably go back given how fun the workout is, but also at the same time still a bit nervous -- but that is just me! Finally, free parking BEHIND the studio for 90min! Super easy. read more

This was my very first Barrys boot camp class and I was extremely nervous at first since I'm a terrible runner, but I ended up having an amazing time! The facilities are SO nice. Brand new, extremely clean, gorgeous interior and beautiful amenities. The staff was extremely friendly and the instructor was excellent. Made me feel very safe and guided me through form and allowed me to go at my own Pace on the treadmill but Still pushed me to work hard. Will say that since the gym and all equipment is brand new, the resistance bands are extra extra taut - making the working even more intense but enjoyable. read more

Barry's Pasadena - Interval Training Gyms Near Me - Pasadena, California

Hmmmm, I'm not sure what has happened at Barry's. I asked staff, and they didn't endorse anything new. Here is what is totally different....lighting, music, and level of difficulty. The room was always previously very dark, no longer. Those red lights are on full force no matter your instructor. You feel like a chicken cooking on a rotisserie! Way too bright! Ughhh. Asked about it, and they said 'nothing has changed'. Ugh, gaslighting. Next, the music....used to be LOUD, very loud, one could argue too loud. No longer... just like everywhere else. And now the signature of Barry's....level of difficulty. I am in quite good shape, and I always felt extremely challenged. No more....they slowed the transition times. Slowed the treadmill suggested speed. Overall it is still a good workout, but not the greatness it was...it is like every other place now, Sanctuary, Equinox classes, Stride, Basecamp. Shame as it was in its own unique category! Now it is just luke the rest..... Bummer read more

I don't support businesses where you buy a package and classes expire. Similar to Soulcycle, Barry's has a deadline for when to use classes you buy. This is a dumb practice. Just like Gift cards can't expire by law so packaged classes shouldn't either. read more
