Go elsewhere. The trainer I was assigned was ridiculously difficult to schedule with. Just wouldn't return my multiple texts. It shouldn't be this difficult or frustrating to work with a trainer. The owner somewhat blamed me for not communicating better (?). The whole thing was so odd. Find a different gym. Love the idea of going to the neighborhood gym, but so not worth it. read more

love love! clean good equipment and small group classes. nice small gym alternative with nice people too

Great to have a neighborhood gym that also offers small group fitness classes. I love having the option of classes without having to join a large YMCA or other big corporate gym. They facility is clean, the teaching and coaching is great. Love this place. read more

Cute little community gym. Good rates and conveniently located near the Glen Park BART. They only have a few machines and stations to lift, so at times it was a bit difficult to get a machine before the pandemic at peak times. When they reopened during the pandemic the owner was really good at setting policies and making us feel comfortable returning to the gym. We booked workouts at both the Glen Park and Bernal locations and they were always clean. read more

Great job on the reopening. Layout and safety protocols exceeded my expectations. Looking forward to getting back into the routine! read more

I am a little nervous to write this review because I would hate for a packed gym! (don't worry, I don't think I'm that influential) This little gym is everything I've really ever wanted. It has treadmills & ellipticals for the cold SF days. It has dumbbells and a smith machine for weightlifting. There are other various weight machines which are kept very clean and well maintained. They have yoga and other cardio classes to switch up routines. So far I haven't run into any issues of overcrowding. I would say the cardio machines can fill up quick but as far as weights, everyone seems to get creative as space. I really enjoy the clientele for that reason as everyone is open to sharing space. They don't have a lot of staff hours but whenever staff are there, they have been super friendly. It just adds to the small local gym charm. read more

My husband and I booked our first workout last week when FitGlenFit reopened. Everything was spotless, fans were on, front door was open to allow for more air circulation, workout areas are clearly delineated to remind members to stay within their zone in order to maximize 6 feet distancing, and you were given your own personal disinfectant spray that you carried with you to each work station so you can wipe down the equipment before and after each use. Alot of thought and care was put into making sure members felt comfortable and safe with the reopening of the gym. Being back at FitGlenFit has been a great respite amidst the many uncertainties that still surround us. Grateful for Dean and his team! read more

Finally getting around to writing a review. Pros: - its a convenient gym if you have the privilege of living far out in glen park..because there is NOTHING else around so you're essentially stuck. - very clean - nice staff, nice teachers (my fave cycling teacher left, ugh) - free water (love this bc i run to the gym and dont carry a bottle with me) - new equipment - good hours via finger print access - nice clientele (i miss you 5am morning folks!) - price comparable to other boutique gyms - nice fans Cons: - small.. sometimes need to push your way around people which is fine at 5:30 am - unwilling to work with me on membership. I signed up for a year price as I thought I would live in my house (had a one year lease) for one year. However, landlord lost my house so I was forced to move out; I am now is alamo square and it would take 40+ minutes to get to fitglenfit and it is not feasible. Owner was unwilling to accommodate my circumstances and presented a "buy out" option that would in total save me $30 (from $250). However, I had to jump through hoops to prove i was being kicked out and unfortunately my 25 year old brother suddenly passed away that week and I did not have the time/stability to argue with fitglenfit for a solution. No one was willing to work with me :(. I know 24 hour fitness is unwilling to bend, but a boutique gym? Just saddens me but i guess this IS San Francisco and we're not accommodating here! So, I'm still paying my membership through Oct.... and I moved out in June. there goes $250...... read more

I've used all my ClassPass classes for this gym on Yana's Cardio Strength Interval classes alone so take my review with a grain of salt if you must. I don't use the open gym equipment nor have I taken any other classes. It's not a "popular" class in the sense that it's usually about 5 people max but I like it that way since the studio is small anyways. In regards to the class itself, I really like it a lot! It seems to start slow because it's about 15 minutes of stretching and even though the rest of class doesn't seem hard when she's showing you the moves, I always end up extra sweaty and sore at the end! I also love how she really gets to know all the students and gives modifications if needed. The gym itself is very small so I recommend already being changed before going in there. Love that it's walking distance to Glen Park Bart so it's pretty accessible. Overall, it's a cute local neighborhood gym. Recommend this for ClassPassers. Or not -- I can't imagine how little space I'll have left if more than 6 people come! read more

I'm not going to focus too much on the gym in this review as this isn't what I've primarily been doing here. I'd much rather say a few words on the Kickboxing classes because it might be helpful for the people who've never been to a kickboxing lesson or who might be interested in trying it. So, first of all, the gym itself is very clean and everyone is super friendly. I've never seen it get too crowded (I usually go on Tuesdays after 7pm and on Saturdays after 9am). Machines are clean, there's water, paper towels in case you want to clean the machines or your face after an intense workout. Now, for the best part: the kickboxing classes. First of all, Jorge, the trainer, is awesome. He's super helpful in providing pieces of advice here and there, and he does a great job of identifying flaws in your posture, in your form, and helps you correct them. Whenever you need help with anything, don't hesitate to ask. The lesson itself lasts an hour and consists of roughly 25-30min warmup (which is already a great workout in itself, you're gonna be doing pushups, abs, lunges, squats, and so on. This is a full-body workout/warmup to get you ready for the intense part: the kicking and punching.) After that, we start kicking and punching with the gloves and pads provided (protip: if you're serious about it: buy your own gloves, I find it cool to wear my special ones). Pairs are often created, trying to roughly match people of the same physical shape/size. Jabs, crosses, hooks, uppercuts, elbows.. roundhouse kicks, sidekicks, frontkicks, and so on will be teached to you by Jorge. He's always making sure that no one gets hurt and that everybody has good form. There's a punching bag where you can practice as well, giving you freedom to push yourself hard as the bag is not going to be easily harmed :). My biggest advice for those who consider kickboxing classes is to not give up after the first lesson: the warmups/workouts gets easier, the kicks aren't as awkward as the first time you do them, and so on. You'll always feel amazing after a session, because you're gonna be proud of having pushed yourself that much. At least try it a few times imo :) I can only finish by saying that it's amazing how much I'm looking forward to those lessons on the day they're happening or the day before. I'm eager to practice all the time now, thanks to Jorge. Sparring with him has just been crazy awesome. read more

Disclaimer: I left the gym due to change in my schedule. Good: reasonably clean, with friendly staff (when present), has working equipment sufficient to work out main muscles. Bad: very small, gets crowded if there are more than 5-6 people at a time, NO shower. Ugly: you are asked to sign a contract which has a clause of '30 days notice' - so if you have to leave tomorrow, you still are paying for the next 30 days even if you are not using it. The owner (a rude gentleman) could not really explain why the policy is in place (other than obvious reasons to ripoff a leaving member). So if you end up there make sure you do know your plans in advance. I am not going back for sure. read more

I signed up for yet ANOTHER gym membership with that little voice whispering in the back of my head, "Yeah, suuuuuuure, you're going to work out regularly. What a chump." Well, screw you stupid inside voice, because for the past few months, I have been going at 2-3 times a week and loving it. I have been living in the Glen Park/Sunnyside area for about 25 years and have walked by fGf since it opened. It is def a boutique gym absent of large crowds, pushy personal trainers, and gym mustiness. Because of my schedule, I usually workout at 5:30am or the early afternoon, so "the crowd" is usually 2-3 other people. The machines and equipment are high quality, well-kept, and clean. And when I have needed to talk with staff, they have been really helpful. I signed up for the $55 a month membership which carries a $99 sign-up fee. For other members of the household, it is also $55 a month, but the $99 fee is waived. I wish there was a family rate, but I understand with a small gym, that just may not be feasible. Overall, i have been very happy with fGf, so if you think you have it in you to work out on a regular basis, fGf's setting, structure, and space make it that much easier to do so. Good luck! read more

Kirklan's Pilates Core Fusion class rules. I've been going every Tuesday and Thursday for a few months now and have noticed a huge improvement in my core strength, stability, and posture. This class has also been an incremental part of my recovery from a back injury that had me wallowing in a pit of rehab sadness before coming here. Kirklan keeps the classes engaging and challenging, mixes it up regularly so you don't get bored, plays great music, and keeps you smiling (and breathing!) even when you're absurdly focused on not falling off your roller (and by you I mean me). Pilates is this funny thing that takes a few sessions to understand but then it sneaks up on you and bam! you're super strong and have started proselytizing it's merits to anyone who even casually mentions some type of physical ailment. They're probably just not doing enough Pilates. They should probably go see Kirklan. Oh and side note: The gym itself is lovely - bright, beautiful, lots of high quality equipment, a great variety of classes, and an overall excellent value. read more

Love all the small group classes. My first class was Kick Boxing with Jorge Bueso. Totally awesome. If you ever wanna get some aggression out and learn how to kick butt then this is the class for you. Jorge takes a lot of time reviewing to make sure everyone is doing all the punches and kicks correctly which i rlly appreciated bc I like not breaking bones lol. I'd recommend bringing your own gloves bc this class will make you sweat, sweat, sweat! This is a total workout and you're gonna be sore after the first few classes but not pain no gain lol. Jorge also does personal training which I keep telling myself I need to sign up for so I can learn how to workout on my own in the gym without looking like a total goober. New Years resolution perhaps? My first yoga class was with Anthony Garcia. He's the embodiment of what a yoga guru should be. My only previous experience with yoga was 10 years earlier in a hot yoga class in SoCal where the teacher kept pushing and pushing me to go harder and I ended up messing up my back and cursing all yoga until I finally decided to give yoga another shot when I went to Anthony's Monday night class one cold winter night last year. I'm so thankful I did bc yoga with Anthony has changed my life forever. I've been able to center myself, meditate, trust and work on my body, release tension and relieve pain I'd been carrying around for years. Tony will literally ask the class what areas of their bodies their holding tension or pain in and then on the fly work a class around the group's needs. So basically Tony's classes are never quite the same and his knowledge of yoga is vast and seemingly unending. I always learn something new in his class. By the end of Anthony's classes I always find true inner peace and I haven't been able to find that anywhere else. Added bonus Tony plays varied and awesome music (neil young, Sade, Amy wine house, and more). Arwyn Moonrise's Expanding yoga class is offered twice a wk, Tuesday night and Sat morning. Arwyn opens each class reminding us of the importance of breathing. She guides us through how to truly breathe into every space of our bodies and how to push the breathe out completely. Apparently I had been breathing wrong my entire life! No going back now. This class has also made me realize and become aware of my own physical ability and strength. If someone had asked me to do a single push up before having become a regular student in Arwyn's class I woulda laughed in their face and said I was too weak and not built "that way". I'm now proud and amazed by my body's ability to do push-ups and more thanks to having learned to hold plank for what during the first few classes seemed like an insane amount of time but as Arwyn tells us in class "everything is temporary" and I push myself through. I've gained a confidence in myself that I never had before. I've also learned how not to test my own physical limits and to listen to my body "discomfort is good, pain is not". As hard as we go in this class the wind down is just as great. Arwyn's class is a total workout and you're gonna leave sweaty, sore, relaxed and definitely expanded. Bonus bonus Arwyn is so friggin hilarious! She's truly a joy to be around. Whether I'm giggling, sweating, or in contemplation this class is kick ass. Katie's Sunday class is also very good. I haven't been able to go as often as I have the other two yoga m classes but that's just bc my kids tend to own sunday mornings so it's an extra special treat to myself when I can make Katie's class. Katie is warm, kind and also very considerate of the specific class' needs when deciding which way to steer the class. Katie's class is a lot of fun bc she introduces you to fun balancing and pretzel-like poses which I love bc it's a real challenge! I always leave class feeling awesome. I've done spin with Katy once and I definitely want to go back for more I just need to find the time!! I made through the entire class which I had to push myself to accomplish but I felt like a million bucks afterwards. Also the gym got new bikes so yay for that as well. I did TRX with Darren once at 6:30AM and that class whooped me but I'd definitely go back for more if I wasn't such a not morning person. I'll prolly force myself to go a few times in the next few months. Dean the owner of the gym is an awesome dude. He was in one of my kick boxing classes once. I actually started going to the small group classes bc they were donated by Dean to my son's preschool for their yearly winter fundraiser and I won them at auction. I wasn't the type of person to go to classes or workout before then but I love this place and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking to get fit and inspired by true professionals. I would recommend FitGlenFit and Sunporch Yoga to any and all!!! read more

The classes are outstanding, really good instructors that build a little team spirt and community every single time. A world of difference from most gym's classes which have a "pack 'em in" feel. Russell Colunga is the most motivating spin instructor I've seen, and the other instructors are all dialed-in on YOU. I appreciate the clean and aesthetic feel to the place too, and though I don't chat much with other patrons there's a good vibe to the place. read more

I only come here for the classes. I highly recommend Medwin Mina's Express TRX (it's a challenging 45 min of focused strength and cardio intervals at 6am to get you in and out), Claudine Dagit's Spin Core (great motivator) and Jorge Bueso's Kickboxing 101 (one the most fun cardio workouts but also one of the toughest - in a really good way - let's just say my sweat towel needed a sweat towel because I was working so hard. Jorge is also really great about making sure the students have proper form as well.) read more

fit GLEN fit - Jorge Bueso, one of the trainers and fitness instructors at fit Glen fit. He teaches an awesome Kickboxing class! - Trainers Near Me - San Francisco, California

Kiki's Pilates Core Fusion class which takes place Tuesday at 8:30 am is like treating yourself to a massage, but better. I left feeling like I had a full back massage, which came from the extensive training we did on the foam roller at the beginning of class, but unlike a massage I left with a tight core, standing taller and understanding why! Kirklan's knowledge of the human body is extensive, pulling from many different backgrounds of knowledge, and it shows in his classes. He is gentle, explanatory and adaptive for different fitness levels. There were others in the class whom had injuries, and he taught to their level as well as others whom were more advanced. He explained each movement with such clarity that even my tired self understood and was on POINT. It made me feel like a rock-star, and who doesn't love that?! I feel grateful to have the opportunity to take classes with someone who is such a wealth of knowledge, and knows how to explain it in "everyday" terms. fitGLENfit is great because even non members of the gym can have access to their amazing classes. I look forward to my next class with Kirklan, he awakened muscles in my abdominal section that I didn't even know existed! THANK YOU Kiki! read more

Strolled in during the Glen Park fair and purchased a pack of Yoga classes. The classes are strenuous and require focus and a desire to stay with it but I love them. Perfect complement to my basic swimming routine and only 5mns from my house. All in all: pleasant and competent instructors, nice facilities. read more

I was sore for days after doing Expanding Yoga with Arwyn!!! Good sore, of course. I'm a bit out of shape so if you're active then this yoga session will stretch and work out every muscle in your body. Highly recommend!!! Arwyn plays good music and she'll help you if you're having trouble with the poses. read more

Nicely kept small gym, TRX instructors are awesome. My experience with the gym administrators / membership contract NOT very pleasant as the staff are not cooperative or understanding. Not worth it! I first heard of Fit Glen Fit from Class Pass, I took a TRX class & really loved the instructor she was awesome. Since FGF was close to my house I decided to get a membership. At the time I had recently moved to SF and still getting a feel for the different gyms & studios in the area so I opted for the month to month membership vs the annual contract just in case I found something better. I paid the $119 initiation fee plus the $65 monthly fee in March. During the month of April/May I was traveling for work most of the time & only had the chance to attend the gym once, April 8th. When I came back from traveling I had many voice messages from FGF about an outstanding balance. I was under the impression that since I was on a month to month contract, my membership would be cancelled once I stopped paying. I was very WRONG, I received an email from the owner stating that I had an outstanding balance & would soon be turned over to collections "As of now your access has been restricted but membership NOT cancelled. Access will be re-instated once account is balanced. Cancellation (if desired) will be set up upon request and updated billing information provided. Please do note the 30 days notice required for cancellation." I immediately called them once I came back from my travels to get everything sorted out. When I spoke to the gym administrators they were not understanding of my situation with work & mentioned that "Perhaps we miss understood your intent of membership? Your membership was set up as a Monthly open-ended membership which affords you the option to place your membership on hold and/or cancel with 30 days notice. If no request to cancel and/or place on hold the membership remains active and rolls over each month. As such your membership continues until we are notified with a request to change the terms of your membership...". Even though I only attended this gym max maybe 5 times & paid a pretty hefty non-refundable membership fee of $119, they proceeded to bill me for the additional months. I've ended up paying $119 + ($65 X 3) = $314 ( attended the this gym maybe 5 times) . Please read their contracts thoroughly they are NOT lenient/ understanding at all! read more

I anxiously awaited the opening of this amazing gym in Glen Park and I was not disappointed! A green and clean environment- this incredible space will envelope you with its warm arms and subtle nuances in the beautiful decor. The owners are super nice and the membership options are very affordable; especially if you take advantage of all the wonderful classes. So far I've takes Arwyn's All Levels Yoga (she is amazing you MUST take one of her classes), and Katie's Butts n Guts (super sweet and your butt and gut will be sore in a good way). As someone who has belonged to gyms ranging from 24 hr Fitness to The Sports Club LA, I am quite happy here and this is my favorite! read more

I literally drive out of my way to this place to fit Russell's spin class into my work out. I remember the first time I was nervous as to how the gym would be and was so happy I checked this place out! The Russell was one of the most attentive and encouraging instructors I have had and he made sure to correct any issues with my form-- which was great. In general I love the size of their classes and how the lights dim down when we are cycling-- definitely makes for a great environment. The gym in general is well priced and I always look forward to going back to work out here! read more

I love this gym! Great hours, super friendly staff, clean environment and reasonable prices for memberships/classes. I took the Butts and Guts class with Katie and it was incredible - I can't wait to go back every Mon/Wed. Very intimate class sizes. Such a great addition to Glen Park - we needed a gym!! Couldn't ask for a better place to go work out! read more

This place is pretty nice for a small neighborhood gym. Con, membership fees of $50 and you have to pay $12 for classes. Pros, all the equipment you really need for a great workout, an insane amount of classes and so different types of classes and times to choose from, sustainably built and impeccably kept. read more

Though I rarely post I am coming back again to give another vote of confidence for the fabulous Glen Fit Gym in Glen Park. I celebrate another years membership and all that comes with it - terrific teaching, super atmosphere and the chance - which sadly seems more and more rare these days- to really feel part of a family business with all that that has to offer - super friendly and personal service and care. Whatever you want - from a high energy spin class, 121 training or FIRST CLASS yoga - Glen Fit will not let you down! Excellent gym. read more

This gym is quaint and accessible. I've attended a few of Amanda Terry's week night spin classes and it is a joy to be riding for the hour as she pushes our class beyond our comfort zone without us even realizing it due to her contagious energy and music! It had been 7 years since my last spin class, and the Amanda Terry spin experience has made me realize spinning is not so bad and can actually be truly invigorating and a great workout- building stamina, strength, endurance, sweating a ton and going home on a natural high! Thank you fitGlenfit and Amanda Terry for a truly enjoyable workout! read more

A great gym- small, locally owned, clean, good equipment and a diverse array of classes. I've been taking the TRX classes for about 6 months. My favorite instructor is Ellie Houston. Her workouts are hard, wonderfully paced. She's very smart about bodies and articulate when describing ways to improve form. Plus, the music she plays is always interesting. She's great but I've enjoyed all the classes and each instructor I've encountered. read more

This is such a great community gym! It is really clean with easy to use equipment, friendly staff and awesome classes. Russell Colunga's spin class is my favorite workout (ever). I actually look forward to class on Monday at 6:30am - he is that motivating. It's consistently challenging and FUN. read more

Awesome prenatal yoga class. I got all the attention I needed, the class was a great combination of challenging and relaxing, the upstairs room was peaceful and quiet. A dream to find this in my own hood. Totally recommend. read more

Cute little studio/gym. Love Claudine's 7am spin class. I want to check out their yoga classes soon. read more

I have been doing yoga with Yana for over a year now and I would say, she is one of the best instructors I have come across in my thirty years of doing yoga. She understands the body and the correct way of doing postures. Besides getting the best work outs, the class is fun and I always leave feeling charged. I have noticed results; gaining strength and healing injuries I've had for years. When you find something this great, you want other people to know about it. And now I can do spin! with Russell Colunga, who is so amazing, because I tried spin a while ago and thougt it wasn't for me, but his way of teaching changed my opinion. Also the owners are wonderful people and the place is beautiful, especially the yoga studio. read more

I moved into Glen Park for the month while studying for my MBA and was looking for a temporary gym membership. I stopped by Fit Glen Fit in the middle of the day - nobody was there! No staff (apparently they are only staffed part time and members have a key to access directly). A woman was also waiting outside to get into a yoga class. Finally the instructor of the class let us in. He was very friendly and suggested I email via website for membership info. After inquiring via email, Dean the owner replied promptly and told me that yes they do monthly memberships but that I'd still have to pay the $100 initiation fee. $160 for one month for a tiny gym? Come on. I said I was willing to pay extra and that if I end up staying in Glen Park I would be happy to switch to a conventional membership and pay the associated fees. The best he could offer me was $50 join fee plus $60 month fee and if I stayed pay the extra $50 difference for "initiation costs" (i.e. programming a key to the door?). $110 for three weeks (already a week into the month)? Seems unreasonable and not particularly community friendly. Disappointing. I will just hike in the park instead. (Note: Edited to clarify the response time from the owner; he responded quickly to my messages). read more

Love this gym - clean, friendly staff, love the classes, and easy access when you need it. I also did a few months of private training with Ellie and she was AMAZING! Worked me hard but also in an encouraging and positive way. Helped me lose the baby weight from baby #2 and feel good in my skin again. Yay! read more

Brand new, affordable & locally-owned gym with incredible classes. The whole gym is tastefully and sustainably done. Great place to try diverse classes (Pilates, yoga, gym, TRX, core conditioning, ...) with instructors that are top notch and care that you are doing the exercises right. Highly recommend checking this out! Also, fitBERNALfit members can use this gym as part of their membership. Classes are only $12.50 for members. Non-members can try out the classes as well. read more

The Gym is terrific, very clean, great equipment and not too big, perfect for a neighborhood workout venue, but best of all is my experience with Jorge Bueso, my personal trainer. He is very knowledgeable, professional, helpful and patient. I'm not a big exerciser. I'm not super athletic, but Jorge pushes me way beyond what i would do myself and I look forward to our sessions. He also teaches a Kickboxing class which is the most amazing cardio work out I have ever had. Bravo Jorge and fit GLEN fit. It's terrific to have you both in the neighborhood. read more

If you want a trainer who is going to push you past your current limits, help you find and maintain training discipline, and who has the patience of a saint, yet the steely determination of a drill sergeant, Jim Wolff - trainer at Fit Glen Fit and Fit Bernal Fit - is your man. We have been working together for 3 years, and I've lost 100 pounds. Whether you are a skilled athlete trying to get to the next level, or someone who needs to make a dramatic change in your level of physical activity, Jim can help you get there. If you are thinking about hiring a trainer, I urge you to have a consultation with Jim. He will transform your life. read more

In Glen Park on Tuesday nights 7:15 to 8:15 pm fitGLENfit offers TRX 101 taught by Amanda Terry. Amanda has incredible energy and an infectious smile, and she smiles the whole time while effectively kicking your butt in a loving and supportive manner. I have to be honest and say the first time I took a TRX class it made me feel so out of shape and I felt sore for a whole week. My clients were laughing at me because I have been a Trainer for 20 years and it is usually me that makes them sore. Amanda's TRX 101 is great for beginners, instructional, fun and I sweated from the crown of my head to my toes. I felt like I had worked every single muscle in my body and I am a total anatomy geek. I felt my pelvic floor, external obliques and even my gastrocnemius. I highly recommend signing up early on MindBody-online for this class because it fills up fast and space is reserved for 8 participants. Amanda was great while demonstrating new moves and she offered us modifications which I really appreciated. My partner, John loved it too. I am excited to try one of Amanda's spin classes. fitGLENfit Instructors are top notch. I am lucky to be a premium member which gives me access to all of the great classes offered at fGf. I am looking forward to trying Victor's class too. One last shout out to Katie's Butts and Gutts. I heard some members chatting up this class also and they loved it. See you in class soon.
