OPEN GYM l Home of Órale Strength

Great gym and an amazing owner/trainer, Ryan has trained me for years and has helped with many techniques even with flat feet. OG Open Gym is clean and welcoming. You see all different body types and everyone is supportive. Highly recommend you check it out.

Since starting my CrossFit journey 4 years ago I've learned the importance of community and what it means when people find their "CrossFit Family". The moment I walked in the door at Open Gym my heart filled with a since of belonging and I knew immediately without a shadow of a doubt, this was my new crossfit home. Ryan and Bryan are not only amazing coaches but have a plethora of knowledge that they aren't afraid to share whether you're taking class or, like me, in open gym doing individual programming. It's my home away from home where I spend 2-3 hrs a day. I love this place!

i have been the fat kid my entire life, i never felt that i fit in at any of the gyms i tried going to and it seemed to always turn into a fat shaming event or being stared at and laughed at while i tried my hardest to lose the weight, when i started at this gym i was 300lbs and extremely depressed, a friend referred me to coach Ryan (The owner) and it took me several months to gather up the courage to actually step through the door, i can say honestly going here has been a life changing event for me, in under 8 weeks with coach ryan's guidance i have lost over 20lbs, i have gained friends and found confidence i never knew i had and i am thankful every day i get to come here. Coach Ryan is incredibly knowledgeable and he looks out for you to make sure you are doing things right so you don't hurt yourself, he really makes it a point to not only educate you on form but takes the time to watch and help you along the way, if you are looking for a new gym you owe it to yourself to come here.

Ryan is amazing at teaching technique to make sure you are in good form, that you understand the movements, and are safe. He is good at scaling things to your skill level and based on issues you may have, while still challenging you to keep working for more, but safely. I am new to the gym environment and was nervous to go based on hearing things about various gyms, this is not one of those gyms. Crossfit Orale is a positive place to reach your fitness goals and meet people who are encouraging and judgment free. I am happy to say I am working through my fears of weight lifting and have made some great friends. I look forward to every day I am able to go. I would recommend this gym, it truly is a place that you can make your fitness goals happen and enjoy the experience!

I started Crossfit about 3 months ago and one of my friend recommended me this gym. To this day no matter how tired I get after the workout,I am always excited to go back again the next day and I would thank Ryan(the owner) who has been an amazing coach.Ryan pays close attention to your techniques and training with him has been fun. I always feared lifting weights but he has helped me overcome that fear in a slow and controlled manner. He takes time to know each individual and thus he is aware of your strenghts and weakness. Above everything else,the atmosphere at this place is really nice and people are super friendly. In short, a great place to burn some calories and make good friends.

I've been doing CrossFit for just over a year & joined Órale at the beginning of June. I live two blocks from another gym but make the drive to Burbank for many reasons, but the two Cs are top of the list. Coaching & Community.Coach Ryan is a master of his craft. His book knowledge matches his coaching knowledge & experience. He explains and demonstrates the movements and workouts, goes through scaling options (I am currently injured & have still been able to participate in every class) and his attention during the class is unmatched. He gives verbal & non-verbal cues which make a huge difference every time. His programming is rock solid & every workout ends with me feeling like I worked hard & made progress towards my goals. (Oh, and the playlists during workouts are FIRE)Then comes Community. Ryan has built an incredible community at Órale. I was welcomed warmly on my first day, and everyone in the gym said hi & introduced themselves. They are friends in the gym and out of the gym. Everyone is really nice; encouraging during workouts and ready with high fives & fist bumps when it's all over! At the end of the day, if we're going to suffer through a workout, it may as well be with friends & a coach who make it fun, no matter how miserable the work is!The gym is clean & well equipped. I am a clean freak & it makes me happy knowing that the place is kept clean, that the brand new gear is kept clean & taken care of. Not many CrossFit gyms have the culture of wiping down sweaty gear when you're done & putting everything back in it's place - Órale does.I could go on & on (like how epic the Órale merch is) but hopefully what I wrote above is sufficient for you to make the decision to drop in & join us for a couple classes and see if you want to join our family! Don't let your perception of CrossFit or what you see online & hear via the grapevine deter you from stopping by, no matter you fitness level or age, you will be able to jump in, have fun & sweat!

Ryan is amazing. He is filled with passion and most importantly knowledge on the human body. He takes the time to get to know each individual and knows what is the appropriate scale or prescribed weight/move to reach your goals. He can watch you and point out your weaknesses and strengths. I have gone to other gyms where it's all about pushing your body to injury....NOT HERE! Here you will work on your strengths and weaknesses. Here you will surpass your goals.Ryan has not only the certificates to show his knowledge but he also has his masters. An athlete who understands how to push people but keep them safe. I have the most absolute love for this facility. Grateful that there is a coach that is dedicated to each individual who walks in the door. Thank you, Coach Ryan! I look forward to each class, each post because it is filled with knowledge bombs!!!!!If you are looking for a place to sweat, crush your goals, and meet amazing people. This is the pace for you. Filled with positive energy and genuine love and respect for one another. I am so proud to be a member of this gym and community.

Ryan is an amazing coach. He probably doesn't even remember the casual observations he's made to me over the years, which, when putting them into effect, has caused dramatic improvement in my movements and long term fitness goals. But that's just him to help without needing anything in return. He supports you without shame, makes the workouts fun with his sense of humor, his knowledge is legit and trustworthy, and the community he's built as an owner is truly inspiring, welcoming, and safe. A true professional in every way. I absolutely love coming here every day. I do supplemental work with his brother, Bryan, here as well, and ditto to all the above regarding Bryan. I need to buy their mama some flowers for raising such incredible humans!! I highly recommend taking the leap and trying it out; you won't regret it!!!

I always tell Ryan (the owner) I THOUGHT I knew how to work out before I started training at his new gym! Its been nothing but fun and a great learning experience training at Open Gym. From the classes to the Personal Programming I purchased with Ryan, hes there to make sure you hit you fitness goals and succeed.His knowledge on the lifts and movements he programs are evident by his verbal cues, demonstrations and the way hes able to tailor each work out to every ones physical limits. No ego, no pride, no bull you might experience at other places.If you're looking for a friendly environment to get fit, smash your goals and meets some great people along the way. THIS IS THE GYM FOR YOU!!!

I have trained at many different facilities and Crossfit Orale is by far the cream of the crop. The coaching staff is very knowledgeable and patient with their clientele, always going the extra mile to ensure concepts are understood and executed appropriately and safely. I started working with Coach Ryan about a year ago and I have seen every aspect of my fitness make leaps and bounds. The community within the gym is more family than friends. They are there to pick you up when you fall, but also to celebrate the milestones whether big or small. This facility offers the total package that is often talked about, but rarely found. I highly recommend this gym for anyone of any skill level! Best gym in Burbank!
