    Heading into Cryo to burn up to 600 calories.

    Love the new PURFIT... great staff, great equipment and fantastic Vibe!! Recoverme is amazing. Cryo, Red Light Therapy, Infrared Sauna and Compression. Everything you need for your after work workout wellness.

    The red light therapy is so relaxing and I just can't get enough. Fills my cup a bit when it seems like nothing else will. Mood boost, relaxation, and healing. Love it.

    Brenda Olson the general manager is rude and obnoxious. Talking over me and completely uncompromising. I tried to call to cancel my membership since I moved out of the area and they said they couldn't cancel over the phone and tried to charge me $100 to cancel after the year term was over. What a scam. Beware of this gym! Go somewhere else! They have an automated service that incessantly calls my phone to pay for a membership I no longer want. I refuse to pay $100 and fill out their stupid form. Hard working people don't have time for this nonsense. An email and a call should suffice. Your business is not customer centric and deserves to fail. Be fair with people. Don't try every scandalous trick in the book to steal people's money. I've posted several images of these EXACT SITUATIONS with multiple customers. This is called "social proof" for you PURFIT business owners. You might want to pay attention and be intellectually honest with yourself. Read a book on how businesses scale because this ain't it. It comes from the top down. The owner is scandalous and so Brenda Olson the general manager is also scandalous. Zero integrity. They respond with legalese in these reviews instead of empathy and customer centric policies that would grow their business. They don't understand how much revenue they're losing by people seeing these reviews. They have no way of measuring it but I'm sure it's substantial. Thank goodness for the internet and peer reviewed platforms that hold businesses accountable. What a bunch of short sighted and strategy deficient imbeciles. Fix your cancelation policies and think about doing a cost/benefit analysis on what you're earning from raping people's time and bank accounts vs the market share potential from NOT having reviews like this visible to the public and potential customers. Check around and try to find a gym that makes it this difficult to cancel a membership. It doesn't exist. The only contracts that have validity in the context of wanting to scale a gym are the reasonable expectations that customers have. You have a responsibility to the community of Palm Desert to enact policies that are altruistic and fair, not stringent and bureaucratic - meaning overly concerned with procedure at the expense of efficiency or common sense. Do better and market forces will reward you.

    Best decision I've made for my health! If you're looking for a new gym- this is your sign. Equipment and gym is always clean & the staff is super friendly and willing to help at any time. Gym environment is also friendly and my favorite part is their new squat racks and hip thrust machine! So glad I found this gym and they even cryotherapy, an infrared sauna, red light therapy and compression therapy !

    Beware. I used to like this place but it's going downhill. The manager there berated customers very publicly. No way to treat members.

She even took the time to communicate with me while vacationing out the country and personally connected me with her staff. They helped me customize an experience specifically for my group, answered all my questions, and were very accommodating. They also allowed me to bring my own food and champagne for my celebration which was a plus!! When we arrived we were met outside by Kristen and Jessica. They were so nice and welcoming ! We were a little late as we were traveling and they were more than patient before starting. My group did yoga and a sound bath. All around 10/10 experience ! After that we were able to eat a light lunch and pop some champagne. The bride loved everything from the music selection to the environment itself. Kristen was an amazing teacher and Jessica was such a great studio host helping us set up and even walking around to top off our champagne. I highly recommend this studio for any sort of wellness celebration!

    Love YogaSix Palm Desert. I stopped in one day to inquire about their classes and take a look at…read morethe studio and merchandise. I spoke to Jacqueline who was VERY helpful, knowledgeable and kind. The studio is beautiful offering one room that is heated, wired for sound and has soft floors. There are two restrooms, cubbies for storage of personal items during class, and a fantastic selection of top quality merchandise that includes Manduka gear and Spiritual Gangster clothing! I purchased the introductory 3-classes for $26 to be used in the span of one week. I downloaded the YogaSix app... booked my classes... attended and LOVED it! The first class I attended was a Slow Flow and the second was a Restorative Flow... both had great instructors, beautiful music, and left me feeling centered and grounded. I split my time between Long Beach and Palm Desert and have been practicing Yoga in Long Beach for almost 10 years now. Until recently, there wasn't a studio in the desert that offered the beautiful and clean spaces that are commonplace in most beach communities. YogaSix is a beautiful, new, and modern space and definitely the answer to my yoga prayers. It was lovely to practice amongst a group that included people of all ages... young and young at heart. I've always felt that Yoga is for everyone of all shapes, sizes, and ages... and that's exactly who this YogaSix crowd is. If you've every wanted to give yoga a try... please allow yourself the opportunity to experience it. You don't need fancy clothes or gear... just show up with an open mind and heart and be prepared to receive. Namaste.

    I just hit my 250 classes and I have to say how happy I am at YogaSix! Some of my favorite…read moreinstructors have left, but I love taking classes with Aida, Annie, Corinne, Henny and Alyssa! They create such a welcoming environment and offer modifications. They also encourage you to meet your body where it's at in that given moment, and I greatly appreciate that after having a sour experience at different studio (not YogaSix). YogaSix doesn't have the spiritual feel that I would tend to gravitate towards, but it's a very nice studio. I started coming here when I was facing some big life changes, and it's been really great to grow my practice here. Felt like a really good starting point for someone completely new to yoga! The front desk staff are always warm and welcoming and I love the convenience of their app to book classes. Thank you YogaSix!

    I felt compelled to write a review for the Pilates Path because it has changed my life…read more About 1.5 years ago my doctor recommended that I take a Pilates or yoga class in order to regulate back pain that I experienced during pregnancy which continued after I gave birth. I had done yoga in the past so I decided to try a different approach and called the Pilates Path. To say that Pilates changed my life is an understatement. My back pain subsided after a few reformer sessions and I immediately felt relief. That back pain subsiding was just the beginning of the benefits that I've received from being a student at the Path. I can honestly say I will never forget how I felt after my first class, I knew that this is what my body needed and I was finally taking care of myself. I started taking classes (reformer and Cadillac, private and group) 2 to 4 times a week for about 6 months and I noticed a significant difference in muscle mass. I would see pictures of myself and I couldn't believe how much taller and more slender I looked; it is hard to feel tall and lean when you are only 5'3" but Pilates truly makes you long and lean. I have continued training on a regular basis and now I am pregnant with another child and I have not experienced the back pain that I had during my first pregnancy. I attribute all of this to my Pilates training and the ability of the instructors at the Path. I most often train with Ellie at the Path but I've also taken classes with Autumn and witnessed most of the other instructors, all have extensive experience in Pilates and kinesiology and that is demonstrated in the depth of their understanding of the anatomical foundations of the exercises. I am especially impressed by their teaching ability and the way they make everyone in the class feel challenged. I love the Path for many reasons especially what it has done for my body but I also love the way it makes you feel. The Path is a warm and inviting studio where students of all levels are welcomed and challenge. I can't imagine my life without Pilates Path!
