They take the time to focus on form, explain the "why" behind each exercise, and always know how to push me just the right amount.

If you're serious about getting results and working with someone who truly cares, I couldn't recommend them more highly!

Heather pushes you with expertise, supports you always and offers modifications if needed. I have always enjoyed strength training but never stayed consistent as I have burned out or felt judgement in those settings but at All Steele Fitness I have been consistent for over a year and I know that is due to Heather's guidance, care, expertise, fresh workouts and fun!

I…read morehave been training here almost every day, and I can say with confidence that this is more than just a gym--it is a community. The no-class-time model is incredibly efficient for a busy schedule; I never have to stress about a clock, I just show up and get to work. What makes this place truly special, however, is the warm and inclusive atmosphere: A Personal Touch: From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by name. There is a genuine culture of kindness where members cheer each other on through every round. Celebrating Milestones: One of my favorite parts is how we celebrate each other's progress. Whether it's a 100-workout milestone or a 500-workout achievement, the trainers and members make sure your hard work is recognized. Expert Coaching: The trainers are the perfect blend of professional and encouraging. They provide expert technical guidance while ensuring you feel motivated to push past your limits.

I usually go in the mornings with Coach Ines who is awesome! Nights with Coach Ceci is great too. Her aerobics classes makes me feel better about myself AFTER the class. Not during. lol. I love how they have monthly challenges. Also give away for 50,100,250 visits etc. It is a nice incentive to get you going into the gym! They have so many different classes too. Not just CrossFit. Olympic lifting, aerobics, boot camp, and more. Ruth, the owner, is always so helpful whenever I need anything. Also, she is so damn hilarious too! Only wish they had a bit bigger gym. Sometimes it can be tight if it's a bigger class. Also parking can be hard too.

I love my workouts with CeCe! I highly recommend this thorough and cost effective program.read more

I have two reviews here. First, I started a program with Nore as my trainer and she's just beyond…read morefantastic. Warm, knowledgeable, and she's led me to remarkable improvement in a very short time. My body has been totally transformed because she's great at working all the muscle groups. I have some health issues, and she tailors our sessions to address my unique needs. Plus she's super fun and makes the workouts go by quickly. Then there's Ray. He's also a trainer, but I'm singing his praises as a masseuse. He *fixes* me. He's both extremely knowledgeable about the body AND intuitive. He finds the trouble spots - the knots, the tight areas, etc and works them out in one session. It's really what I've wanted from a massage forever but he's the first one I've found who can actually solve the problems showing up in my body. I couldn't recommend him more!

She really works with you and makes you feel empowered! I just moved back to the east bay and started doing the group training again at 5am still very affordable and doable. 5am is so good because I get my exercise in and pushes me to make good choices on food all day long! And pushes me to sleep early. I would give Nore 10 if I could.

I have multiple injuries and body issues that make it hard to work out. I was always injuring myself the moment I tried to do weight training on my own. With Awesta I give him feedback on when something is challenging or exacerbating an issue--I'm learning good form to avoid injuries. He is always responsive and finds modifications so I can stay engaged the entire work out. I also find it more affordable than I expected. I don't do the group classes though they look great, it's a bit too advanced for me given my limitations. Being in there a few times a week, I watch the entire staff cultivate a warm, welcoming environment where you/they say hi to everyone who walks into the space. It's also very diverse. I'm talking both staff and members, culturally, age-wise, body types, genders--no one ever makes you feel you don't belong there.

Rating: 4.5/5 - this review is based on one class…read more This gym is great for beginners and an older crowd. I didn't realize how much of a gym desert Castro Valley is until today. I'm originally from San Diego and there are plenty of gyms around my area. However, my sister did mentioned she lived in an older more suburban neighborhood. Unfortunately, I wanted more of a challenging HIIT class that you can find at Barrys or F45 (both of which are an hour away from here). With that being said, they do have TRX bands and assault bikes as well as a variety of weights. They also offer beverages between $1-$5. They were also nice to let you use the assault bikes before and after class. I was expecting more of an energetic and motivated crowd but it was more of a mellow crew of retirees and a preteen boy. It was definitely not what I expected in a bootcamp/HIIT class. Nevertheless, it was a great class albeit I felt like the only gym rat there. Earlier in the class, there was some confusion (partially because the trainer was also teaching people online) but he was able to modify some of the routine so most of us understood what to do. I never expected wanting to do more after a workout but this is a great class if you want to be challenged but not physically exhausted. I also recommend a voice amplifier and more prompts (i.e lift your arms above your head, etc) for the trainer as there was some confusion (maybe due to the music, his low tone or lack of prompts). Will visit again if I'm in the area as it's relatively close to where my family lives. Parking: Plaza Parking Recommendation: They have a first timer special - 3 classes for $50 that includes personal training but I would check online or in person to make sure that it's accurate. They also offer open gym to those with classpass!
