    33 minutes after class is supposed to have started, the host hasn't let me in. Wtf?!
    Sarah C.

    Don't waste your time or your money. Shitty registration options (app or website). Poor communication, good luck if you want to get somebody to resolve time sensitive issues, class link didn't work. Go to the Dailey Method instead.

Sundays are busy too, but I can usually find a good spot. One thing I really appreciate is how clean the studio is. I always see the staff cleaning the floors, the room, and the equipment, which makes me feel comfortable working out there. I've always been more of a weights girl, but Hot Pilates has completely won me over. It's challenging, fun, and leaves me feeling so strong. I even drive quite a distance just to take these classes because they're that good. It's become one of my favorite parts of my fitness routine!

The space itself is immaculate, modern, and super clean--from the front desk area to the locker rooms and studios. The yoga classes here are fantastic. The heat and humidity levels in the heated room are dialed in perfectly--you will definitely sweat, but it never feels suffocating. The instructors are high-energy, knowledgeable, and great at offering both modifications for beginners and options to level up for more advanced practitioners. Parking is convenient, the staff is always welcoming at check-in, and the overall vibe of the community is really uplifting. Highly recommend checking them out if you're looking for a great hot yoga workout!

For the first time, I'm intentionally putting my health first -- and the investment has been well worth it. What I appreciate most is that the workouts are challenging without being intimidating. I never leave feeling defeated or so exhausted that I dread coming back. The format allows you to push yourself at your own pace, with a strong foundation in controlled, calisthenics-based movements. I also value the focus on balance training, stretching, and mindfulness. It really is a complete, well-rounded workout. Most of all, Julie, the instructors, and the women I've met here are incredibly supportive and welcoming. I'm so grateful I found this community, and I look forward to continuing my journey here.

This community of women, both instructors and members, are welcoming, amazing, and strong.

    Forma Gym in Walnut Creek markets itself as a luxury fitness club, but my experience was anything…read morebut premium. The disparity between the men's and women's locker rooms is impossible to ignore. The men's locker room is clean, well-maintained, and includes a sauna. The women's locker room doesn't even have a sauna. Instead, it has filthy floors, poorly maintained showers that don't drain, and standing water collecting around your feet while you shower. It's unsanitary, disgusting, and completely unacceptable for a gym charging premium membership fees. I tolerated these conditions for months before finally deciding enough was enough and canceling my membership. Unfortunately, the cancellation process was even worse than the locker room. I canceled my membership, yet Forma put me into a "soft cancellation" and quietly started charging me again three months later. I didn't realize it immediately, and by the time I caught the charges, they had collected months of membership fees. Rather than refunding money they never should have taken, they offered me free months at the same gym I had already chosen to leave. That is not customer service--it's a refusal to take responsibility. Between the neglected women's facilities and the way my cancellation was handled, I left feeling that Forma cares far more about collecting membership fees than providing the premium experience it advertises. I would never recommend Forma Gym in Walnut Creek won't be returning.

Ya'll this place will get you in shape in no time. I tried the Lagree class. The instructor was so nice and allowed me to switch over from the Climb x Boot Camp class when I showed up. I was also able to purchase a pair of grippy socks onsite for about $10. The music was good, the lingo will take sometime to learn, but I appreciated the instructor coaching me and helping to position me in the right position, and gave me words of encouragement. There was only 7-8 ppl in the class so I wonder what it's like when it's full. I appreciated the work out bc it challenged me to push myself just a bit more. I had a good sweat and worked my upper body to the point where my arms were going to give out on me, half way through but I kept pushing just a little more. I appreciated that there was no pushy sales person trying to get me to purchase a membership. Now I can give it sometime and a proper think. Everyone was pleasant and professional from the staff to the members in the room. Nicolette was subbing from Danville and she was a great instructor. Provided me with a quick history about how Lagree was established. I definitely hope to come back and try the climber/boot camp class.

Returning to the Megaformer even after hundreds of classes is still a VERY humbling experience. The slow and intentional movements of the Lagree method have left me with Bambi legs on multiple occasions. On days I need more cardio, I take the Climb X Bootcamp classes, which also give me an effective full-body strength workout. CB Fit is always constantly adding, modifying, and evolving with the times. Whether they're adding new equipment, upgrading to the Lagree 2.0 format, or incorporating client feedback, their constant commitment to improvement is why I'll definitely keep showing up.

The classes are a really great way to get a good workout in without having to plan it yourself.

First the gym is always clean and the staff is very friendly. 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.
