It's low key, quiet, people don't bug you, the equipment is top and well cared for. The classes are varied and there's a time for everyone. I've barely scratched the surface of possible workouts here- in 6 mos. They have Pilates for an additional fee to members but it's a deal in and of itself- there are weights in a semi private room as well as throughout the gym and I love the women's sauna in the very clean locker room. Super nice and helpful staff. I'm happy.

The facility is always clean, the equipment is modern and well-maintained, and there's plenty of space so it never feels overcrowded even during busy hours. The locker rooms are also really nice and kept in great condition. One of the highlights of this location is the staff. Everyone is friendly and welcoming, and you can tell they genuinely care about creating a good environment for members. Nick in particular stands out. He's always helpful, professional, and brings great energy to the gym. Whether it's answering questions or just making people feel welcome. Additionally, Fitness SF outperforms the local competition; five points fitness, body kinetics, and the bay club all have worse hours, higher prices, and worse equipment (significantly worse regarding five points) If you're serious about building your physique, or just want a high quality, friendly environment to work out in, this gym is right for you If you or anyone you know truly believes an alternative gym in Marin is better than Fitness SF, your IQ is most likely lower than your bench. BUT! That's ok! Switch to Fitness SF and our community and equipment will get you right, physically and mentally. I know for a fact if you come here for just one month you'll never want to switch back to your old gym. Overall, its a fantastic place to work out. Great equipment, great atmosphere, and great staff. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality gym in the area. Oh and I almost forgot we've got some wonderful massage chairs for post lift relaxation.

The only other "affordable" gym in the area is the YMCA, and that is always insanely packed. Sonoma Fit has great value for money. It's not overly crowded, has great music, people are friendly.

So make sure to keep your expectations in check - you'll get a great workout without breaking the bank, but it isn't fancy!

I love the Y and appreciate the amenities available to the community. I have only one concern and…read moreit is that lifeguards do not enforce their basic rules for lap swim. In the last month alone, I have experienced 3 incidents where someone just suddenly appeared in my lane, in front of me while I was swimming. When swimming freestyle, you generally are looking down and if someone is suddenly in front of you, it is difficult to stop in time to avoid a collision. On each occasion, I questioned the person to ask, "where did you come from, how are you in this lane?" All of these swimmers seemed oblivious to the rules, 1: You enter at the deep end only, not in the middle of a lane from an adjoining lane. 2: You make visual or verbal contact with other swimmers when entering their lane and communicate if you're circle swimming or parallel swimming. 3: You never enter in the middle of a lane. I live in fear of a collision because I have 4 small plates holding my cervical spine in place. But the concerning thing to me, is where are the lifeguards. They are literally sitting and watching and never instruct these scofflaws. What are they doing? Another example was the woman doing a backstroke in the "Walking" lanes, literally colliding with bathers and continued even when she was asked to move over to a swim lane by others. I'm just going to say, an accident is bound to happen unless they clean this up, soon. Perhaps it isn't a responsibility of the lifeguards to monitor for these incidents, but I got scolded once for being "too fast," for a slower lane. Made me laugh because I hadn't swam in 5 years and felt it was appropriate for me to start there. So, I know the guards are monitoring something. Let's just hope nothing bad happens, I guess.

I'm extremely disappointed with how the Marin YMCA handled an issue with my paid locker rental…read more I have been paying for both my YMCA membership and a locker, even while I was on maternity leave and had not been able to go to the gym since January. I never froze or canceled my account, and I even recently upgraded my membership so my son could participate in Y Kids. When I returned, I found out that my belongings were gone from the locker I had been paying for. I was never given any notice, warning, email, or phone call that my locker would be emptied or that my items were at risk of being removed. This is especially upsetting because this is not the first time something like this has happened. When I followed up, I was told they looked for my items but could not find them. They offered to cover two months of membership dues as a "gesture of goodwill," but then later said they did not believe staff emptied my locker because no locker audits were conducted. That explanation does not make sense to me. The locker was locked, and access should have been limited to myself and YMCA staff. Since I was not at the gym and did not remove my belongings, there was no clear explanation for how my items disappeared. I paid for a locker with the expectation that my belongings would be secure. Instead, my belongings are gone, and the response I received felt dismissive and lacked accountability. I have since requested to cancel my locker rental. I've supported this YMCA through my paid membership, even during a period when I was not using the gym, so this experience has been incredibly disappointing. Members who pay for lockers should be able to trust that their belongings are safe and that they will receive proper notice and communication before anything is removed. I finally cancelled my membership!

You're going to get a great workout at any Orangetheory location and Greenbrae is no exception. Group fitness classes really help me push myself further than I ever would during a solo workout.

In addition to excellent workouts this Greenbrae location has a wonderful community feel, including member appreciation nights. Coaches are incredibly friendly and helpful.
