What started out as an impulse GroupOn purchase in 2014 to try something new for a couple of weeks turned out to be a lifestyle change. I have been training at Evolve collectively for a couple of years now and I can truly say it is an …

I love Evolve! Even though the physical space is closed during this COVID 19 period, our coaches are still doing classes via Zoom! I’ve been doing the kettle bell classes and my weak knees and shoulders are so much stronger! I’ve had 4 knees surgeries so it’s weakened my body. This program is excellent! Love the gym members who are super supportive! My coaches are awesome and caring people that are also knowledgeable and makes sure your safety comes first! ❤️❤️❤️

I had just moved into the area at the end of last year and was looking for a gym to call home. One of my very good friends suggested I check out Evolve since he had been a member for many years. I signed up for their trial period right before the Christmas holiday and Evolve would be closed for about a week. They were very nice and said that I would be able to continue the trial period after the break since I would be losing some days due to the closure. I really appreciated that because it gave me the opportunity to try majority of the different classes offered at Evolve before I made the decision to become a member. One thing that really stands out about this gym is that all members and coaches are very welcoming which makes coming to classes fun and enjoyable!

Highly recommend one of the most respect gyms in the Bay Area. Coaches from my previous gym recommended I take my training here (we moved to the Peninsula from the East Bay) and I have enjoyed every moment I am there.Coming off of a significant back injury, the Evolve coaching staff understood how to work me back into training, which was very important to me. With the high level talent of both the coaching and the training partners, it was everything I could ask for.Through COVID-19 the staff has remained engaged, added Zoom classes to the daily curriculum and hosted weekly check-ins with their students.

Joining Evolve Training Center has been one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life. I've been doing Muay Thai at this gym for a year now (& counting) and what a year it's been. Right off the bat, you'll feel welcomed. No egos at all here. The staff (coaches & front desk) & the members embody the definition of family. Words can't describe the how much I appreciate the Coaching staff here. Definitely made an impact on my life inside and outside the mats. Nothing but love for this gym!
