The instructors also do not come around to help people with form so you would never know if you're lifting properly or holding any yoga poses properly. Everyone just does their own thing because the instructor isn't checking if anyone is doing things right. Definitely not a place for beginners.

I also took the 7:30 a.m. R&B class on Saturday morning, and it was a total vibe! I met Mercedes, and she was so sweet. All of the instructors are incredibly welcoming, friendly, and motivating. The energy in the studio is amazing, and I was sweating buckets after both classes! The facility is also very clean and well-maintained. I'll definitely be signing up for a membership. Highly recommend!

I don't even know where to begin with Just Ride, because this place gave me so much more than I…read moreever expected. I rode all the way through my pregnancy -- right up until the day before I gave birth. Every single class, I felt held by this community. The encouragement, the check-ins, the way people genuinely cared about how I was feeling -- it carried me through one of the most vulnerable times of my life. Riding wasn't just a workout. It was where I felt strong when so much of me felt fragile. Coming back 8 weeks postpartum was harder than I can put into words. My body felt like a stranger to me, and getting on that bike was the one thing I could do to start finding myself again. And the moment I walked back in, I wasn't alone. This community wrapped around me and helped me rebuild -- not just my strength, but my confidence, my sense of who I am. I'll never forget how Mercedes personally adjusted my bike on my first days back and kept it dialed in for me, making sure I was safe every single time. That kind of care, that attention to one person finding her way back -- it meant everything to me. The classes are incredible. They're fun and engaging, the music lifts you up, and the owners pour so much heart into making sure everyone feels supported and safe. But what makes Just Ride truly special is that it's so much more than an indoor cycling studio. It's a community of people who show up for each other, who encourage and care for one another like family. Joining Just Ride wasn't just about getting fit. It was about being caught when I needed it most, and finding my strength again surrounded by people who felt like home. I'm so deeply grateful. ‍

The old school alternative to the 90'a hip hop with a little splash of country hits different for me and I will speak for myself. Turn off the outside and ride to the energy of the room with so much positivity from Jess H. Like she's made for it. Front desk staff such as Bianca Always warm and friendly, checks in with you even when u aren't there. That is Rare. Same for warm and friendly welcoming staff Claudia & Jordan.

I have been going to Cyclebar Castro Valley for about a year and three months now, and the journey…read morehere has been nothing but amazing. I began with the 8 class monthly membership pack, just enough to make it to Olivia's 5:30 AM classes twice a week (commuting all the way from SF to do so lol). As I moved back to the East Bay, I bumped it up to the unlimited membership package, and it was the best decision. First off, each and every instructor at CB truly pour their hearts and efforts in every class. The playlists are perfect for the high intensity moves, the stat board/races create a friendly competitive environment (for those who wish to participate), and their uplifting demeanor/hilarious commentary really sets them apart from other cycling studios I've tried prior to this one. Amrita has really taken her time on selecting and bringing in nothing but the best for this studio. Second, the CB community here is sosososo genuine and I am incredibly appreciative to have a group of people in my life who uplift one another in our fitness journeys. Between the front desk CB staff, to the other members of this studio, everyone really makes you feel welcome. Post-class coffee meetups are shared, milestones are always celebrated, they even took the time to set up a surprise mini baby shower for my sister, Jessica... like where can you find a group of people like that!! And that is just to name a few of the things that I've experienced in a short amount of time here. Third, more of a personal observation, is the positive exponential effect Cyclebar Castro Valley has taken on my overall well-being. I've noticed so many lifestyle changes on my day to day mental and physical health, and I couldn't be more excited to keep this momentum going. I am long overdue for writing a review expressing my gratitude for CB, but I am extremely thankful for having Cyclebar Castro Valley nearby that checkmarks all the boxes I look for in a group fitness studio (high intensity, passionate instructors, strong community, cleanliness, a wide range of class times, staff responsiveness, etc.). If you're reading this, indecisive on whether to try out a class, this is your sign to do so! You will not be disappointed.

Even though I am a man, I am still an HBCU alumni, so the Baddies Brunch class feels like home for me. It feels intentionally for us, for our allies, and for the baddy girlies to release that energy. Between Paisley, Noah, and the front desk crew SoulCycle Walnut Creek is top tier in my book. And I say this as someone who has taken Trammell's class in NYC. (Please note that this is an updated review from a 1-star review that I left a few years ago)

Paisley is one of the FEW trusted, intelligent, smart, fun fitness instructors of color who works within this community. Having access to her classes is few and far between and being a person of color, I purposefully will go out of my way to support. I have ridden with Paisley for nearly 5 years now and Baddie Brunch originated as an outlet to share a space with people when she was going through a rough life experience. The class is fun, uplifting, and meant to provide a safe and up beat space for everyone. Paisley gives several notices via a class announcement, social media posts, etc to let people know what the tone of the class is. Simply, if you don't like it DONT COME. That just opens up more bikes for people who want to be there. Paisley, keep doing what you're doing. We all love and appreciate what you do for us in the fitness community. She's one of a kind and the best of the best Thank you Soul WC for giving us this gem of a human!

Now after a few reformer classes with different instructors trying to find one that was a little more challenging as the others were more like a stretch I took a class with Olivia and that was THE BEST CLASS EVER very close to how lagree feels and challenging enough to get some shakes. Will keep booking as long as it is with her!

The gym is located inside a plaza so parking is not a problem. This gym offers a wide range of classes and a fully stocked weight room. The gym also has separate saunas for men and women. There is a smoothie and snacks cafe inside. The classes they offer include Hot Pilates, Reformer Pilates, various forms of Yoga, CS4 (boot camp), Boxing, Cycling, and Rebound. I've taken all their classes with several coaches, and I now have my favorite coaches. Ilze, Morgan, Alex, and Lo are top-tier for hot pilates and yoga; Alex and Adriana shine in cycling, Amy's unmatched in Reformer, Morgan and Lauren excel in CS4, and Sebastian brings it for Rebound and boxing. Overall, I am delighted with this gym, and I see myself staying for the long run. It has everything I need, and the instructors are top-tier.

Joining TruFusion is helping as I don't believe I would push myself like I am here on my own. This is a great way to start the new year. They offer a large list of classes, pilates, yoga, HIIT, Barre, yoga, some are a combo, heated and non-heated classes. The instructors are great, so far my favorites are Maria and Desirae. Both are clear in their instruction and were able to see my struggle to offer modifications in a very humble welcoming way. TruFusion makes it easier for me not having to think of a training plan. I book my classes on their app up to a week ahead and show up. The value for what I am getting is worth it. I kind of wish I would've done it sooner. They have some intro promos. I def recommend taking advantage.

The cycling class was enjoyable but my only downside was the comfort of the seats since I was a newbie I couldn't focus on the workout because my butt was literally numb from the pain of the seat lol, my classmates helped me by showing the seat pads i was still in pain but I tried to push through as much as I could . Long story short you need to sign up you won't regret it

This review is LONG OVERDUE…read more I discovered SWEAT when I came home last year for a friend's wedding. Not wanting to slack on my exercise plans, I signed up for some spin classes here. The Real Ryder bikes were something else! I'd done plenty of spin classes before, but these bikes gave me a workout I hadn't felt before. The downside of no longer living in Stockton is not being a regular here, but when I'm home for the holidays or other occasions, I try to make a point of doing a class or two. I definitely recommend SWEAT! Check them out, sweat, and feel good about supporting local businesses in Stockton :)
