I even brought my two year old along for a work out (he has a space with toys to keep little ones safe and entertained) - this is really great for people with little ones.

He will meet you where you're at and get you to your goals. Some highlights: Private training is PRIVATE -- you have the gym to yourself and that is great for anyone who might feel awkward at a typical gym. You won't feel pain working out with Andre. If something hurts, it's modified. Everything in his program is personalized. He knows what he's doing and he's seen it all -- I feel really confident trusting his expertise.

I've been training here for the past two years with Jason, and it's been life changing. I'm 40 now…read moreand I'm the fittest I've ever been. When I first started, I shared my goals with Jason - one of which was to gain at least 10lbs of muscle mass. By the end of the 1st year, I was up 16! I feel stronger and healthier than I ever expected. Jason is incredibly knowledgeable and thoughtful in how he builds each workout. I have a minor fracture in my lower back, but he has always customized my program so I can train safely while still pushing myself and making real progress. The gym is spotless, the environment is positive and welcoming, and Jason genuinely cares about his clients. I can't recommend The Island Personal Training enough.

I've had on and off knee problems which he's helped me work around and honestly it's been more effective than physical therapy for me. Shout out to the adorable and encouraging gym kitties too!

But there's just something about this particular studio on the northwestern end of the island that brings me back everytime... Maybe it's the fact that it's one of the more spacious studios in the East Bay. Maybe it's the ample parking spots, as it's located in the Alameda Landing shopping center. Where you can also get groceries and Chipotle or Jamba Juice after a workout. Or maybe...it's the entire staff at this location that keeps me coming back. The energy, playlists and theme workouts that Mikey, Katie, Sarah, Nik, and Alliah bring. The helpfulness of the SAs, particularly Josie and Kristin! Whatever it is, this studio is pretty awesome.

Right away you can tell this place is well run. The energy is welcoming, the staff actually cares, and the community vibe is real -- competitive but still friendly. Pickleball-wise, it's stacked. 8 indoor courts that are clean, permanent, and play great, plus 7 outdoor courts if you want fresh air. Runs are organized, people know how to play, and they're always hosting tournaments and competitive events, which I really appreciate as someone who plays a lot. Outside of pickleball, the gym setup is legit. Full cardio and strength equipment, unlimited group classes like yoga, barre, and more. Locker rooms are clean, with showers, sauna, and steam room -- clutch after long sessions. Pro shop is fully stocked and the staff is always down to help with gear or questions without being pushy. Small thing but funny -- they even added a ping pong table, which kinda says everything about the vibe here. Functional, fun, and community-first. If you're in the Bay and serious about pickleball, fitness, or just want a spot that's run right with good people, The Hub Alameda is definitely worth checking out. I'll be back for sure.

I have a confession to make. I egregiously violate a stereotype of my ethnicity. Dancing is not…read moreamong my natural talents. During my first dance class in my senior year of college I did 16 hours of extra credit, including mopping behind the good dancers, to get a B-. Yes, a B-. That did not look good on graduate school applications. I was not good at standing. That is not a typo. When I stood up with my weight toward my larger toes I fell on my face. Although I admired, and enjoyed dancing I could never do it or aerobics or any choreography set to music. Then, in 2008, I met Eduardo! I had heard of Zumba. I even had a Zumba video. Actually, I had two of them and couldn't follow them. I took Eduardo's class and I could follow it. It took practice but I could do it. Why could I do it? 1. Eduardo explains what you will be doing with each song 2. Then, he demonstrates after the description 3. Instead of just standing at the front of the class he makes it ALL the way around the classroom, studio or gym (yes, I said gym the man can cover an entire basketball court) to help, you praise you, or have fun with you. Oh, and make no mistake, if you don't do it right the first time he will invite you to do it over. 4. He phases routines in and out slowly. Sometimes, he brings older songs back. 5. Regardless of your fitness level, you leave his class with a good, thorough workout and cool down as well as basic instruction on what to eat to recover. He works you hard and you see results. You will enjoy getting those results. You will want to follow Eduardo wherever he goes for fitness instruction.

Moving Eduardo's zumba classes to the Alameda Mariner's Square Athletic Club is a nice space--but…read moreprobably somewhat deceptive to Eduardo's old exercise crowd--- or anyone from outside who wants to try out the class. You probably thought you couldn't go anymore because the classes are now inside a private club or you would have to join it. WRONG! Guys and gals--you can still come to class and get a punch card like you used at Just Dance Ballroom, and you do NOT have to be a member of the club. So if you've been thinking of doing a fun, challenging (more challenging than regular zumba), latin-based, cardio dance class, please do not let the huge scary stop sign at the entrance stop you. Just go straight up the stairs to the right to the dance room. And do not be intimidated by the choreography, especially your first time. If you get a few basic repeated moves down, you will be able to sweat your little heart out and get a good workout after a few sessions--which is the whole point. I can do my 5 mile run once a week, but this is still the most productive hour in my week. I cross two tunnels each time to get here, and it's more than worth it. Eduardo is still after all these years, the best zumba around the bay.
