Sweat

If you’re looking for a gym with a high vibe feel and community, this is it! I went for a drop in to the Emeryville location with my friend Nechelle and from start to finish my heart was so full. Josh is an excellent trainer who went over our movements in detail before we started. He brought great energy and kept the large class flowing without hiccups. The music was perfect, the workout kicked my butt (in the best way possible😜)and I had a blast. Looking forward to my next sweat experience💫

BEST GYM I'VE EVER BEEN TO! Ever. I'd give it 6 stars if I could. I would never push myself this hard unless there were friendly coaches and other cool folks doing the same circuit alongside me. It's my favorite thing to work out outside too--so much better than a loud, dark gym. I love the 5 or 6pm classes (depending on the time of year) because I can see the sunset and birds flying over. When I was considering moving from my house to a different one, distance from Sweat was actually one of my deciding factors ☺️.

I can’t express enough how great this place is!! I am 55 and started working out at the Sweat outdoor gym classes with a buddy about a year ago. The classes are super challenging, but with great instructors, easy to follow. My core strength has improved so much over this year and given me stamina I didn’t have before. I love breathing the fresh air while doing this workout as well. I highly recommend this class on San Pablo!! ❤️

SWEAT Family kills it! Been a big supporter of Sweat since the beginning. Cassie and the team she has built are amazing. The classes keep you on your toes and in tip top shape. Make it as hard as you need it or as light as needed for recovery.Of all the years Ive been going here, this is always consistent:Great Instructors, Great Community, Great Workouts, Great Gear…I think one of the fun things is when you do get one of those workouts with Cassie in your class (not as the instructor, but as a peer) and you pair up with her, good luck…she’ll push you! :)Keep it up Sweat Crew!

I love Sweat SO MUCH! I have been going to this gym since 2018 (back when I still went indoor at the Albany location), and still make it part of my weekly routine (and it is always a highlight!). The outdoor gym helped me so much during the pandemic to still get a great, intense workout in with the support of a coach and in the company of others, and, as a bonus, to get to spend some time outdoors! As I work inside all day, I still super enjoy getting to work out outside and breath that fresh air- whether it is freezing out or the sun in shining! But if you prefer, there is also an indoor location. Another thing I love about Sweat is how challenging, dynamic and diverse the classes are! All I have to do is get myself to class, and then I know I’m going to have a great workout. No class is ever the same as another, so you never get bored, but the workout is already set/provided, so you don’t have to worry about challenging yourself- that’s a given! The coaches are also there to show you how to do the moves correctly so you don’t injure yourself and also how to adapt the moves for your body to get the best results possible in a sustainable way! The coaches and the timer also create motivation to push to your max effort while also still keeping things fun and positive with bumping music and high fives! It’s just a great atmosphere :) 10/10 recommend

I love my Sweat workouts! Challenging, great instructors and I have gotten stronger through Sweat. I highly recommend giving Sweat a try no matter where you are in your fitness journey - we're a friendly, welcoming, inclusive community! Hope to see you there!

I love Sweat so much. I was diagnosed with cancer a few years ago and my doctor told me I should train for surgery like I’d train for a marathon, that would help my recovery. I started going to group classes at Sweat 2-3 times a week, and I was in the best shape of my life by the time I climbed onto that operating table. My recovery went great, and I’m eternally grateful. I’ve been cancer free for years and now I’m back at Sweat to stay healthy. Thanks to the whole team there!

I’ve been a sweat member for 2.5 years wahoo :) My partner and I love coming in because everyday is a new workout program. It’s extremely challenging and by the end of class you feel on top of the world because your peers and the music motivate you to give it your all! Most importantly the coaches look at your form and correct you if needed. I love that attention to detail because I need that supervision! Bonus: if you’re looking for a community, this is the place to go! you’ll see :)

I started going to Sweat in January 2021, and it was and continues to be a complete game-changer for my physical and mental health. I had previously had a regular fitness routine but my former gym moved to doing only Zoom classes - it just wasn’t the same, and I need that structure of group workouts led by instructors - so I stopped working out altogether. Unfortunately, we now know all to well the toll it takes when you’re isolated and stuck indoors without physical activity for a long period of time. I am so thankful I discovered Sweat, as they were offering in-person, outdoor classes during a time when it was very tough to find any in-person workouts in the Bay Area.Even now that gyms have reopened, I’ve stuck with the outdoor classes at Sweat - I just love getting my outdoor time and exercise all at once, and I find it much more enjoyable than working out indoors. I spend a large majority of my work week indoors and it’s so nice to change it up. There’s even a covered garage space for rainy days, so no excuses! (But they do have an indoor gym as well if that’s your jam!)I travel a lot and I love the flexibility of the class cards, which don’t expire, so I’m only paying for sessions in the times when I can actually use them. The workouts are designed so that you can go multiple times a week if you want without fatiguing yourself, because each day targets a different muscle group, but I’ve also missed several weeks due to travel and been able to jump right back in without feeling like I’m lagging.The workouts are excellent, efficient, and open to all levels while pushing and challenging you to grow and get stronger. In just 50 minutes of your day, you get an incredible work out that will leave you feeling great. The instructors and community are welcoming and encouraging. I always leave feeling better than when I walked in. Try out a class, you won’t regret it. Much gratitude to Sweat’s founder, Cassie, and the whole Sweat team!

In a blink, it has been 5 years since I joined Sweat. Day by day, it has become part of my life and a healthy, centering and motivating way to start each day.Pluses:our supportive community,our encouraging coaches,our creative and challenging routines - all of which add up to the joy of a natural high.Indoor or outdoors, Sweat is the best hour you can gift yourself!
