Very nice route setting as a bouldering gym. Great aerial classes including silks and lyra. Nice yoga classes in a cozy yoga room. Slacklining and gym facilities available. Located close to the ocean. I wish I live nearby then I will go there more often.

Lots of problems that change weekly. There's a top-out boulder, slab, cave, overhang...all good, and a nice workout area too. Lots of room and a well kept facility.

Small but fun climbing gym. The routes tend to be a bit more dynamic and the grading is a grade more difficult than places like Hangar 18. This place is very small, but the quality of the gym is high, and the atmosphere was great. There were also plenty of classes available, including an aerial class which was cool to see. A day pass came out to $22, which is the most expensive out of their SoCal locations. Parking was plentiful as there was a small parking lot and plenty of street parking.

Not the best climbing gym I’ve been to. Compared to others there’s not a lot of variety in the setup along the walls. Great if you just want to visit two or three times but not worth a membership.

I’m obsessed! Jennifer is the best yoga teacher there is! Each class is dynamic. She has a great sense of awareness as far as what the class needs and changes up her flow so it’s not the same, allowing for growth in all areas of the body. Her class is the perfect balance of bringing the heat to make you sweat, stretching the body to bring relief, and full of joy to make you smile. Anyone can walk in no matter what level in their practice and feel comfortable and accepted, bound to grow and get strong. Don’t miss out!

I went to Vital today for the first time and it was “CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC” as a sign posted to the front door read. A member told me that he was able to get in but the public could not because of a staff party. I didn’t see any staff party going on inside.

My 2 boys have been climbing here for several months, they do love the climbing, which is why I am not leaving 1 star. I am spending $400 a month for the two class/memberships. I have sent several emails about various thing over the last …
