Perseo and the team at LA FLEX is the best spot. 1) clean gym and workout areas 2) Perseo is clear and considerate 3) equipment is in good condition 4) workout ambience is awesome I wasn't big on working out and Perseo was able to calmly explain what the workouts involved and was mindfully aware of my limits and what I was able to do based on my injury, highly recommended and would definitely send anyone looking for a personal trainer or workout space. Like it says "Only the best in the West" read more

I came to Perseo as someone who had spent years in Pilates and group fitness but was genuinely intimidated by a gym environment and had no idea how to approach weightlifting. Two and a half months later, I'm stronger, I can see real changes in my body, and I actually convinced my husband - who has never done personal training or group fitness in his life - to start training with him too. That says everything. Perseo is an exceptional teacher, not just a trainer. From day one, he made the whole thing approachable - breaking down form, explaining the reasoning behind each exercise, and tailoring everything to exactly where I was starting from. He caught early on that I was slightly favoring one leg during squats and corrected the imbalance quickly, which is the kind of detail that would have taken me years to notice on my own. He also goes above and beyond in ways that feel personal rather than transactional - extra time for stretching, genuine attention to how your body is responding session to session. If you've been nervous to start or feel like the gym isn't "for you," Perseo will change that. read more

I discovered LA Flex about 2-3 weeks ago through ClassPass, and it's quickly become one of my favorite gyms. Since then, I've been consistently attending weekend classes and even added some weekday sessions on my own outside of ClassPass. The vibe here is truly top tier, everyone is welcoming, positive, and friendly, while still being focused and serious about getting a great workout in. It's a rare balance that makes you feel comfortable but also motivated. Perseo, the owner and trainer, really sets this place apart. He's incredibly personable and attentive. Early on, he took the time to do a full body scan to assess my current fitness level and identify target areas, something many places charge extra for. We also had a one-on-one conversation about my goals, and since then, he's been intentional about tailoring movements to fit my needs, even during group sessions. What I appreciate most is that there are no gimmicks here, just real, effective training that delivers results if you're willing to put in the work. The community is great, and I enjoy working out alongside others, but the 1:1 sessions are especially valuable if you're serious about your fitness journey. I highly recommend LA Flex for group classes, small group sessions, and personal training. read more

I have written only three online reviews in my life, and two of them were more than 15 years ago. So the fact that Perseo has finally persuaded me to write another should probably count as one of his more impressive achievements, although not quite as impressive as getting me into the gym six days a week. When I first started training with Perseo about three years ago, I could barely tell the difference between a squat and a curl. I was also far too intimidated to exercise in front of an actual group of people, so I began with one-on-one sessions. Somewhere along the way, the creaky old bones became considerably less creaky, the lower back, knees and shoulders became much more cooperative, and I somehow ended up in better shape in my 50s than I was in my 20s. Perseo is an excellent trainer, but what really distinguishes him is how much he genuinely cares about the people he works with. He knows how to challenge you without making you feel uncomfortable or out of place, and he is particularly good at adapting exercises around whatever problem area happens to be staging a rebellion that week. Whether you prefer personal training, smaller group classes or the larger weekend boot camps, he creates an atmosphere that is encouraging, welcoming and, remarkably, actually enjoyable. LA Flex also attracts a wonderfully diverse group of people, and I genuinely look forward to seeing and working out with them. That is not a sentence I ever imagined myself writing. And then there is the music. Perseo somehow curates playlists on the fly to match the personalities in the room. At what other gym can you hear a classic Jim Croce gem, some early Fleetwood Mac and then a Pixies jam, all while attempting not to collapse during a set of squats? I still find the whole online-review enterprise slightly silly, but Perseo deserves this one. He has helped me become stronger, healthier and far more consistent than I ever thought possible. Five stars, enthusiastically given. Barring extraordinary circumstances, this will probably be my last review until sometime around 2041. read more

LA Flex - Westchester (near LAX) I've been training with Perseo at LA Flex twice a week for about two months, and I can honestly say it's been one of the best decisions I've made for my health. Perseo is the kind of trainer who genuinely cares -- not just about your fitness goals, but about YOU. He is incredibly kind, thoughtful, and patient, especially when it comes to working around injuries and physical limitations. I never feel rushed or overlooked. I do the semi-private sessions, which can have up to four people, and somehow Perseo makes every single one of us feel like we're getting one-on-one attention. Each with our own personalized workout, based on our needs and fitness levels. That's a real skill. His knowledge of the human body is outstanding. You can tell his education is deeply rooted in how people actually move and heal -- not just cookie-cutter workouts. For anyone in the 30s-60s age range looking to build strength, improve mobility, or simply feel better in their body, LA Flex is the place. And the new workout friends I've made, priceless. Thank you, Perseo -- see you next session! read more

Parcel is always in touch with his clients. He always works around clients needs. I personally told him of a bad shoulder I had - so he worked with me to get that shoulder better BUT also help me modify my exercises to get fit and not loose time because of my shoulder. This guy is amazing. read more

I've always been intimidated by gyms and am so glad I found LA Flex. In a couple months, I've already noticed a huge difference in my strength, form, and body comp. I've been going to small 3-4 person group sessions, which provides the perfect amount of personal attention and motivation from others. Today's big group session was a blast. What sets it apart is that Perseo pays attention to your needs and tailors the program to address injuries. I've been struggling with hip, knee, and cervical radiculopathy issues and have already seen improvements far beyond what I was getting with physical therapy. Plus the price is very reasonable. Highly recommend! read more

Truly an amazing experience, workout, and group! The exercises are explained to you in a way that makes sense and allows me to understand better! I am genuinely excited for class every week! Cannot recommend enough! read more

Working out with Perseo is one of the best parts of my week. It's a great workout and great community. I was always active with sports(soccer and basketball) but after a serious ankle injury at age 40, I needed to find a different way to exercise and stay and shape. Perseo provided that way. I never enjoyed strength training until I started working with Perseo. He tells me how to do each exercise the right way and explains the "why" of each move....and how they all work together. I feel in better shape now than at any point of my life. Perseo has built a community of fun people at his gym and it's a fun vibe. Highly recommend! read more

Great place to workout they offer personal training and small group personal training for people over 35 the owner is so nice he will give you the full breakdown of what you need to do it's clean and has everything you need including free parking read more

Every week, I look forward to working out at LA Flex with the owner/trainer Perseo. I attend his small group personal training sessions. I love how he tailors a workout plan specifically designed for your fitness goals. He is really sweet and he motivates me to keep pushing. In addition to that, his Saturday/Sunday morning group workout sessions are fun and energizing. Ever since I started working out with him 3 months ago, I've lost over 10 pounds and gained lots of muscle. If you're looking to start/restart your fitness journey, I highly recommend checking out LA Flex. read more

Perseo is so knowledgeable and passionate about what he does! I am a trainer myself and I enjoy having conversations with him because I learn so much every time! I have attended group classes and I've also done his recovery services. I always walk out feeling relieved and ready to get back to training! Check him out! read more

Perseo is a skilled trainer who is passionate about total health and wellness. You can see his application of principles in kinesiology and physiology and he works intuitively to examine your form, function and body to tailor an exercise regimen that is personalized, working towards strengthening key aspects of your specific body's composition. The evening sessions are not typical classes you will find at boutique studios. They are group training which is like group tutoring as contrasted to a lecture hall or a classroom. He pays close attention to form in a way that will optimize your body's workout--providing functional training that is individualized. This requires skill, passion, attention to detail and intuition. LA Flex and Perseo is one of the key reasons keeping me in LA! The space that he has built is a reflection of his approach--grounded, wholesome, genuine and motivational. In the LA sea of looksmaxxing, influencers, and bigorexia (muscle dysmorphia) where there is such a focus on performance and bulking up for the sake of aesthetics and image; here is a genuine quality gym that is grounded in form, function, and fitness. read more

Coming back to strength training after a decade, I wasn't sure what to expect--but Perseo delivered. The program is thoughtful, well-structured, and truly results-oriented. In just three months, I've seen major improvements in my energy, strength, and overall health. read more

The owner Perseo is very welcoming and made me feel comfortable from day one. The gym is clean, motivating, and not intimidating -- such a great place to start if you're nervous or just beginning. The group training even feels like one-on-one sessions. So worth it!! read more

Perseo, the owner trains with purity of purpose, with a customized strategic plan to fit your needs and goals. He is generous with dispensing his knowledge and skillfully delivers with the expertise of a seasoned craftsman fine tuning his work of art. Perseo wants to make the most out of every position and angle required for correct muscle activation, in any given exercise, for your personal efficiency and fitness progress. He will hold you to higher standards and not be satisfied with just going through the motions. I highly recommend him!!! read more

His new location is awesome! functional equipment. In the group classes there rock! Want to get fit, change old habits, and have fun doing it? Well honestly you've come to the right place, like for real for real. I lost over 50lbs with Perseo and I'm still going. Believe me I've been a lifetime dieter, up and down on the scale. I've had gym memberships where I'd always say I'll go tomorrow but tomorrow never comes. I've even tried other personal trainers and nothing seemed to click. From day 1 training with Perseo he helped me get over my excuses and focus on true training. Training with attention to form, strength building & cardio all in a safe way. He paces your sessions to YOUR abilities. I repeat, to what YOU are capable of doing with a little push to challenge yourself. No bs you see online like, "hop up this wall, now do a million burpees, then throw this tire in the air and catch it while doing a sumo squat". He manages to find your sweet spot and encourages you the entire time and actually pays attention to what you are doing and how you are doing it. In addition to that he plays the jams and is always super positive and chill. He's also certified, has a Kinesiology degree, and goes to seminars and lectures to always up his game. Not gonna lie this dude changed my life and that's literally the reason I wrote this review. Invest in yourself and get started as soon as possible read more

This gym has helped motivate me and push me to levels I never thought possible. Perseo is not only strategic, but thoughtful and crafts a plan catered to each individual's needs. If you are new to working out or uncomfortable in crowds, this place will make you feel welcomed and will remove the intimidation that can come with the stigma of 'fit life'. read more

Perseo's passion for personal training, wellness, and fitness shines at LA Flex. I started with Perseo years ago, and he's by far the best personal trainer I've ever had. As the other reviews have stated, he is not your typical trainer. For the semi-private training sessions, he creates an innovative training program specifically for you weekly based on your goals, abilities, and body type. He will also adjust on the fly if you have issues the day of training, which is super helpful. Once you commit to changing your habits outside of the gym, you will see results in weeks. I would suggest starting off with the group classes on the weekends. He does a different circuit every weekend, and it's always fresh! No burpees, no sit-ups, no excessive cardio, and he's intentional about working muscles that you probably won't work out on your own. If you're interested, I would suggest following his IG page to get an idea of the workouts that you'll do. I've yo-yo'd a lot of over the past few years due to personal reasons, but he always welcomes me back with encouragement and support. Lastly, a big bonus is that he has cultivated a great community of people that work out with him. In addition to getting a good sweat, you'll also meet likeminded, kind people. Wins all around. read more

Can't say enough great things about this gym. It all starts with the owner/trainer Perseo. He's super knowledgeable but not in an intimidating way- he's always interested in clients understanding why they are doing a particular workout. The gym is really well equipped, and he mixes things up to keep it interesting. Great playlists and really solid clientele are a bonus. I've had private, semi private and group classes and recommend them all. I'm super prone to injury, and Perseo always seems to have my myriad of issues in mind for each work out. read more

This has been the best experience working out. I enjoyed the class. Paseo, the owner is excellent.

It's a good class. Good music I recommend this to several people come on out. You'll have a good time and you will work up a sweat. read more

Perseo is a dedicated and honest coach, who sets you up for success from the get-go. As a beginner, i was intimidated by the idea of working out with others. I've always been overweight and struggled with just starting somewhere. Perseo made those worries disappear overnight. I can't stress the patience and care he displays to his customers, it's one of a kind. Appreciate his level of commitment. Worth every penny. read more

Perseo at LA Flex !! I' met perseo at his former gym in Hawthorne, I was just trying out a session for a couple of days , but those days turned into months.

He definitely pays attention to everyones form when doing a exercise and corrects you if needed . I was also amazed on how much equipment he has for us to use . Overall a great experience this past weekend! (I recommend for first timers to try the weekend group workouts to start off) read more

Approaching two years since I have been working out at this gym with Perseo and let me tell you I don't regret one second. I have learned a lot about my body and enjoy waking up early to work out.

LA Flex - Only the Best - Trainers Near Me - Los Angeles , California

Do not think twice about joining LA Flex! Perseo, the owner and coach, is the best trainer I've ever met. He genuinely cares for each and every one of his clients and their success. All his other clients are super nice, and it feels like a family when you get to know them. He tailors the workouts to meet everyone's individual needs. After four years of training with Perseo 1x week, I'm the strongest and most fit I have been in a long time. I drive from Glendale to see him because I know I would never be able to find the same type of coach anywhere else. Perseo's workouts are both fun and challenging. He pays attention to your form, injuries, and personality traits to come up with the best workout for you. He strikes the perfect balance between mobility, rehab, and challenging you to do better. Good music, great facility, and the best vibes! read more

I started off with Perseo with sessions back at his home gym and when he would do the culver city stairs. He's always been knowledgeable and passionate about what he does. It's great to pick his brain when you have a pain somewhere cause he can pinpoint why there's an issue in the first place. After taking a break from being very active, I tried out Perseo's new gym and wow it is definitely amazing to see what he has done. The classes are well managed and every piece of equipment is implemented at some point of time. I tried out a weekend class recently and it is obvious if you make the time and effort, you can definitely start to see results. When I first walked in I had on and off hamstring issues so Perseo implemented exercises to strengthen those areas by doing various different squat movements. He's very perceptive when it comes to having the right form and could make any and every adjustment to get you doing them correctly. With his sessions focusing on where I needed help the most, I haven't had any issues besides them being sore from being active and getting reps in over at his gym. After months with Perseo I can see why it's worth training with him. If I were to have gone to a conventional gym, I would most likely just run on the treadmill meanwhile with Perseo he has us focus on free weights to help get toned and build muscle. I came in and Perseo simply asked what I wanted to make as my goal. I wanted to focus on strengthening my chest and legs given that I have a lean/skinny physique. Over the months of going once to twice a week, I could definitely see results. My legs are more toned than they would be if I were to just be running at the gym and I can pass off wearing a large while still remaining nearly the same weight. Perseo has all the resources to help you better yourself. He offers treatments such as scraping and cupping when pain gets bad and it definitely helps. He will do everything to get you where you want to be. I trust him with my exercise regime cause he has proved countless times that he knows what he's doing, you just have to put just as much effort and be consistent to see results. read more

I was nervous because I've been in the market trying to find a good trainer. Stepped into LA Flex and he is amazing. Patient, and focused training. I'm already a guy who is pretty strong. But it's different when he drops the weight and has me focus on movement and breathing. It's created a huge shift for me. This is a great place! And it's family owned. read more

Go checkout laflextraining on Instagram if you're on the fence about coming in. Perseo is pretty active on there so you'll be able to see what kind of workouts you'll be doing and what equipment is available. I initially found this gym on yelp due to the great reviews, but it was the Instagram that pushed me to come in for a consultation. I've been here for about a month now and I look forward to every gym sesh! Perseo is great about correcting your form and catering to your specific needs. If you have pain or tightness in certain areas, he's able to figure out why and help you fix it. I'm a regular gym goer and I've now realized that I was setting myself back at the gym because I wasn't doing certain exercises correctly. I'd also like to add that the community here is THE BEST. The community is a testament to Perseo's passion for fitness and dedication to his clients. He invests in us so that we can invest in ourselves. Highly recommend giving this gym a shot! read more

LA Flex was my very first personal training/ small group fitness experience. I am very fortunate to have had one of the most knowledgeable and passionate trainers to start my fitness journey. From the free culver city workouts to the garage and now the state of the art gym. He truly shows you the proper form and provides valuable information for lifestyle modifications to reach your fitness goals. I have the confidence to maintain a healthy lifestyle and not injure myself during a workout. Also, I watch out for preservatives and choose organic fresh cold pressed juice options and make sure I am wearing the appropriate shoes for my workout sessions. LA Flex (Perseo) is more than just a workout, you leave with so much knowledge about health and wellness to apply to your day to day routine. I can truly say that he is the best in the west! read more

This is the second time I come back to LA Flex with Perseo. I met him 5 years ago in 2018 and used to workout with him until the Pandemic happened among other things. I gained a lot of weight during this time and thought I wasn't going to be able to get back on track with my fitness because it had been so long. But I came back a year ago when Perseo opened up this gym in Westchester and I can't say enough good things about Perseo, the gym and even the people that go on the weekends for the group workouts. Everybody is really nice and we are all there for the same reasons. To be a better version of ourselves. I'm so thankful for the training, guidance and patience that Perseo has given me. Especially the way he focuses on proper form of the work outs because it's key to have results and not hurt yourself. Thank you for everything you do Perseo! read more

I've tried traditional gyms, boot camps, and home workouts but Perseo's training sessions are superior. I suffer from an injury from several years ago and have been suffering from hip pain.

Coach Perseo, is not your average gym trainer. He definitely goes the extra step to create a workout routine that works best for you. Every person has a unique experience when you go to him as he accommodates your needs. Whether it be being flexible with your schedule or working with an injury. If you are a single parent or unable to find childcare he welcomes your child and if they are able to they can follow along with some of the work outs. I recommend everyone to give him a chance as he is invested into helping all of his clients. He is there to guide and aid on your wellness journey but you must put in all your effort too. read more
