Kaia FIT Carlsbad
2801 Roosevelt St Suite B, Carlsbad, CA 92008, United States
I've been working out my whole adult life and I've never belonged to a community like Kaia FIT. Women of all ages that inspire and support you. Become your friends. Many different class options from cycling to cross training to barre and more. No judgment just positive reinforcement for whatever your goals are. And the instructors are all so amazing. It's really like personal training in a group atmosphere. Also includes meal planning and nutritional education. Can't recommend Kaia enough to anyone looking to work out in a safe and supportive environment.

24 Hour Fitness
1265 Laurel Tree Ln Suite 100, Carlsbad, CA 92011, United States
24 hour fitness is probably the worst gym that I have been in. Customer service is horrible. I pick this address because it is the billing center. I canceled my membership in February and they are still billing me. I live in Miami and I cannot get any assistance.

24 Hour Fitness
2501 El Camino Real, Carlsbad, CA 92008, United States
If you have children and are looking for a gym.... DON’T JOIN THIS GYM! I have only been a member for two weeks and have had to wait to put my kids in their childcare EVERY SINGLE TIME sometime for over an hour... up to TWO hours! It doesn’t matter if you come before the child care center opens.... other parents are there already waiting. They are ALWAYS understaffed in the childcare room. There are plenty of other staff members standing around but none to help in the kids room. It’s awful. We pay twice as much as LA Fitness charges... and half the time you won’t get to workout. I am going to leave this gym and go back LA Fitness—I NEVER had to wait there.

Planet Fitness
2502 El Camino Real, Carlsbad, CA 92008, United States
My husband and I have been members with planet fitness for years now. Weve used several locations in southern California, however the Carlsbad locationis the WORST by far.A little about myself, I am fully disabled due to multiple back and neck injuries and cannot stand very long or maneuver in small spaces very well, which is why it is so critical that I have access to a handicap shower and changing room after my pt and workout.The locker room/ shower area is always filthy, with standing water and no non-slip mats. On more than several occasions, there are homeless people sleeping, charging cell phones or just camping out in the changing stalls/ showers. When they actually do use the facilities, there is no regard for other people, or the mess they make.On one occasion a homeless woman was dying her hair, in the changing stall, flinging red dye everywhere, when asked to leave by staff, she refused and continued to wait for her hair to develop. The smell of the chemicals were too much, and I left.TODAY- there was a homeless woman in the handicapped shower stall- with her dog, camping out, not showering. When staff was notified, he laughed.Next, God forbid you want a hot shower, before 5:30 in the morning- Thats when the water heater timer will kick on. When staff was asked about this, they lie and say the water heater is broken and theres nothing they can do. However, in the past, a staff member has gone into the womens locker room to reset the water heater.Lastly, the staff spends more time behind the counter on their phones, instead of ensuring a clean and safe environment for EVERYONE.Ive tried speaking with the manager, Ive left my contact info many times, left messages, he is either not available or does not return phone calls. With all that being said, maybe I will get some kind of response/remedy after leaving a review here..

YoFiT Yoga & Functional Training Carlsbad Gym
3239 Camino De Los Coches #100, Carlsbad, CA 92009, United States
YoFit is a fantastic fitness center that stands out as a small business rather than a corporate chain. The trainers are incredibly attentive, always ready to provide modifications to suit individual physical limitations. The yoga classes are thoughtfully scheduled alongside strength training and circuit weight training classes, making it a perfect fit for our family. Owners Calvin and Stacie go above and beyond to foster a supportive community. The cold plunge has played a crucial role in aiding recovery from strength-building workouts and shedding the post-Covid weight gain.

Breathe Degrees
6965 El Camino Real #107, Carlsbad, CA 92011, United States
I have been to Breathe Degrees in Carlsbad on a number of occasions to take the breathwork class and then cold plunge. The first time I went it was challenging and when I walked out my endorphins had kicked in and I felt amazing. Ever since I have taken many friends with me to try it out. Its a super fun bonding experience and you always leave in the best mind set.In the middle of the breathwork class it hits me that I am doing something soooo good for my body, mind and soul. Being focused on my breathing in a guided meditative state is truly unique. The beat of the music, the voice of the instructor, the camphor on the neck, and the over all atmosphere is connective and inspiring! Participating in the cold plunge after is a transition from one mental space to another. Both are physical and mental challenges, but the cold plunge takes it to the next level. The first time is a bit of a shock, but once you know what you are in for, its totally do-able.My biggest recommendation is TRY THIS! Dont be afraid to put yourself into a new and uncomfortable situation. What you will take away from this experience will change your mindset and give you an unexpected boost. And then once you try it once, if you are iffy, go at least one more time. My second visit is what sealed the deal for me. It truly is a restorative and invigorating experience.Thank you Breathe Degrees!

24 Hour Fitness
3409 Via Montebello, Carlsbad, CA 92009, United States
Don't get me wrong, the gym is very nice and sanitary; with that said, the weights are very rarely where they should be.The facility itself is state of the art: All the machines are very nice, the dumbbells/plates are all new, and there are so many variations of every machine. The locker rooms/bathrooms are also very well kept. In fact, I have never seen the bathrooms look dirty regardless of the hours. A sauna would really make this gym special, but that's neither here nor there. If you are into cardio machines, classes, or weight lifting this gym pretty much has it all.With all that said, the free weight organization is an absolute dumpster fire. I understand there is a high school literally down the street and from 3pm-9pm is basically 100 teenagers running around and leaving their weights all over the gym; but, the staff doesn't seem to do anything about it. It is so frustrating trying to find the weight you need when it's either tucked in a dark corner of the gym, or there is a group of boys with 30 dumbbell's surrounding them. I watch kids deliberately place weights in the wrong spot and move on like it's no issue. Every squat rack or bench rack doesn't have the weight organizers labeled so there are 4 different plates on each rung. Also if you need a 5lb plate GOOD LUCK! You will scour the whole gym and find there are maybe six 5lb plates in the entire gym.I do like this gym a lot! I really don't think it wouldn't take much from the staff to reinforce the rules and keep the weights organized. Unfortunately, I find myself leaving here really hot with the slight urge yell at kids who have awful gym etiquette.Update: Added a photo on a very slow Friday afternoon to show an accurate representation of the weight rack. To make things worse, I watched one of the personal trainers purposely put his weights in the wrong spot due to lack of organization. The best part is, he did it as I was reorganizing the dumbbells and did not bat an eye. I think it would take me about 1 hour to fix the underlying issues with the dumbbell's to avoid this problem entirely. Regardless, the $7 monthly membership increase could have been used to hire someone who can clean up the weights in their downtime.

Pure Barre
6965 El Camino Real UNIT 205, Carlsbad, CA 92009, United States
4 months ago I started taking Pure Barre classes as a fat, out of shape, 57 year old. Though I've been working diligently on my nutrition for a few years now, it was my fitness that had given me challenge. With a neck injury, a distain for physical fitness, and a rather natural ability towards poor athletic prowess, I have struggled with mid life weigh gain and frankly a long streak of self confidence issues.Today I would like to thank each of you for your consistent, structured tutorage, your soft firm, encouragement and your beautiful smiles that keep me coming back, (dispute the pain ?) to build my strength and improve my form.Thank you, thank you for helping me find joy and strength. Thank you for helping me find some self confidence again. Thank you mostly for helping me find a home in fitness that has set me on the path to success. You are a fantastic team!

Nakoa Fitness and Physical Therapy
6068 Corte Del Cedro, Carlsbad, CA 92011, United States
I am thrilled to share my remarkable journey of healing and transformation with Nakoa Fitness & Physical Therapy. 18 months ago, I found myself struggling with a severe L5-S1 disc injury; immobilized, in immense pain, and a toll taken on my overall quality of life. I could not sleep through the night, pick up my children, or tie my own shoes on some days. I was resigned that surgical intervention was my only option. Little did I know that this setback would lead me to an incredible path of healing, strength, and personal growth, all thanks to the exceptional team at Nakoa.When I first walked through their doors, I was met with warmth and understanding. The Nakoa team took the time to truly listen to my story and understand my unique challenges. From day one, they made it clear that my journey to recovery was their priority, and they were willing to change their approach based upon feedback from my body.What sets Nakoa apart is their holistic approach that encompasses both the mind and body. They recognized that true healing comes from within, and they guided me through a personalized program that not only targeted my physical limitations but also nurtured my mental well-being. The emphasis on mind-body awareness was a revelation; I learned how to connect with my body on a deeper level, fostering a newfound harmony that I had never experienced before.One of the most remarkable aspects of my journey was Nakoas dedication to teaching clients like me how to engage and strengthen the often overlooked muscles that play a critical role in our overall health. The focus on recruiting the deep core muscles, such as the transverse abdominis (TVA) and pelvic floor, was transformative. I felt a gradual but steady improvement in my core stability, which in turn alleviated my pain, unlocked my stuck muscles, trained my breathing, and gave me the strength to take on lifes challenges once more.Today, at 42, I stand stronger and healthier than I have been since my early 20s. Nakoas expert physical therapists and personal trainers have not only guided me through a remarkable physical transformation but have also empowered me with the knowledge and tools to maintain my progress independently. The supportive environment at Nakoa has not just been about recovery; its been about achieving a level of vitality and strength that I thought was beyond my reach. None of it was easy, but I would not change any step of the journey based on the outcomes I now experience.If youre seeking a place that goes above and beyond, a place where healing and growth are nurtured hand in hand, then I wholeheartedly recommend Nakoa. Their commitment to holistic well-being, their expertise in mind-body connection, and their personalized approach make them a true gem in the world of physical therapy and personal training. Thank you, Nakoa, for giving me back my life and showing me the incredible power that comes from within.
