Best Gyms with Locker Rooms With Showers near Oakland, California

Great pool for kids so many fun experiences ballet karate or very nice classes very friendly desk I don't know why these people are saying the water is murky they put chlorine the water is very clean and people barely pee in the pool

The exercise equipment looks to be well cared for and in good working order. The pool and changing rooms are a little old and out dated. There are some cracks and dips in the pool floor. They could definitely use a face lift. The people there, staff and patrons are very friendly.

Awesome pool for little kids as there's a ramp entry that goes from ankle deep gradually to 4 ft. Fountains, curved shapes, not your typical lap pool. Water slide has been broken since I got here, so that was a bummer. Aside from being surrounded by encampments and stolen and stripped cars, the area within is gated and feels safe and clean. They have rec swim on weekends from 1-5, and the pool is indoor and heated.

What is the point of lifeguards. My child can't wear a floaty in the pool, huh! Why?They said, they are not allowed because they want to make sure the children are being watched by the parents. Why do other children have to be penalized for parents who neglect to watch their children? My kid had to be held the whole time. She is almost ready to swim on her own and wanted to practice with a floaty. What do the lifeguards get paid for. Back in the day the lifeguards would ask where are your parents. Nope didnt hear that. Just, "Don't sit on the wall." There were a lot of kids without their parents.

Great place, gym workouts not crowded: free weights, machines, dance, spin classes. Great swim options: lap, walking, kids, geriatric programs.

I love both locations of Left Coast! The staff and teachers are warm and friendly. The studio is an inspiring space and I alwayssss feel better, more alive and bright after a class. Thank you so much Left Coast for serving your community with the beauty & gift that yoga and movement truly is 💕

Left Coast is an absolutely amazing yoga studio! Most classes are warmed to around 82; initially I wasn’t sure if I’d enjoy this but I love it. Instructors are warm and friendly, giving clear cues on how to get into the poses with the right alignment, and without hurting yourself. My favorite teachers at this location are Deb and Malka - Deb teaches slower Alignment Flow and Flow + Restore classes and Malka teaches Power Yoga, which is more of an energetic vinyasa flow. Also love some of the newer teachers, like Zach and Malika. Definitely check it out! They have a great new student special - first month of unlimited classes for $75.

After years of inactivity and being a self-professed "unathletic person" I decided it was time to start moving my body more, and I feel so lucky to have found Left Coast! The power yoga classes are just challenging enough to push me out of my comfort zone without feeling like I'm punishing my body. There is so much variety among the different classes and instructors that I feel like I get something new out of every class, but always in a warm and welcoming environment. I've especially enjoyed classes with Patricia, Catherine, and Mike N, but have yet to work with an instructor who wasn't wonderful!

I’ve been going to Left coast for years - it is such an awesome studio! Among others, Jessie is a fantastic teacher. The space is comfortable and welcoming and a retreat I did a few years ago was great!

These days I don't practice much power flow yoga but I loved my month at Left Coast. I was very impressed with Malka's classes. Her ability to thread bhakti and philosophy into her sequencing was amazing. Deb is also a great instructor with a slower flow and more alignment cues. It is also hard not to feel loved by her joyous heart.

Venessa was awesome! It was my first time at BodyRok and she really made sure I understood the machine and gave me guidance and modifications throughout the workout. The studio itself was clean and the staff was super friendly and helpful as it was my 1st time at this studio. I will definitely be signing up as a member

I went in for a 40 mins class yesterday. The instructor was super nice and smiley, but the workout itself was super confusing. One minute we’re doing abs and then we switch up to legs. I usually go to RockSalt Pilates but since this is closer to my place, I decided to give it a try, but not going anywhere but Rock Salt !

This has become my happy place in Oakland. I have never been able to commit to a consistent workout routine until I discovered reformer pilates at BodyRok. The pace with the music and full body workout is everything. It's a moving meditation and SUPER INCLUSIVE. I started totally out of shape and could barely do a sit-up. never once did i feel like i didn't belong. People come of all ages, shapes and sizes and everyone has an amazing time. Highly recommend!! Especially Lauren, Anisa and Sonialena

I love taking classes with the instructor Sonialena. She is fantastic the most friendly and professional teacher .She explains each movement and she makes sure everyone is doing the exercises properly.

I was “nervous” going in for the first time because of some of the reviews, and definitely went early since it was my first time in the studio…..I loved the (Saturday) class and instructor. Instructor was super encouraging, and went through the steps clearly and in sequence of movements. Front desk person was cool too. Will be back.

I absolutely love this place. Every time I'm feeling low, I take any class and leave feeling centered and with purpose. All the instructors are amazing and help guide through each move.

I love yoga. And I was really excited to learn that there was a Free Week at a studio not too far from my house. Believe me when I tell you — it was an experience I will never forget. The people at this studio train like it’s the end of the world. Asking for recommendations for classes, they directed me to a unique format called Yoga Sculpt. I was perplexed when they recommended I bring the following: sturdy mat, towel, a bottle of water, 3-days of food rations, steel toe boots and at least 3 years of martial arts experience. When I entered the room they had emulated the Vietnam Jungle with 95 degrees, 40 percent humidity and a local improv group acting as “the aggressors” in the corner. When the class started, the instructor came in clad in patriotic leggings, and a headband that read “Only the Strongest Survive.” In class we did everything. Warrior 1. Warrior 2. Planks. Squats. Target range practice. Treaty writing. Topography. Sonya, if you’re reading this— thanks for the great sweat!

I’ve been a CP member since my Denver days. Proud to say I’m still a loyal member after many years. I recently did an 8AM class with Olga and I loved it. Olga is an experienced teacher and that offers growth in her teachings. I took home alot of growth and insight from her class!

I attended my first yoga class with Caitlyn as the teacher. She was awesome, gave great cues and was very encouraging to all of us. The studio is very neat and clean. I really enjoyed this experience!

I have never been to this location and they have now charged me $200 in two days for merchandise. Someone at this location appears to be stealing from me and it is unacceptable

Great workout, lovely studio, and I wish I had joined sooner! I must mention that the place is so clean, especially the locker room which is spotless & that is always a big win in my book.

I love the Bar Method! Both the instructors and clients at this studio on Lakeshore are so friendly, welcoming and chill. This is a serious exercise studio, but doesn’t have the pretense or uptight vibes of many I have frequented. I appreciate how approachable, supportive and down to earth everyone is. I have been a member for about 2 years and am truly addicted. I have never felt stronger. My chronic lower back pain has been eliminated by the research-backed, whole body workouts. I love the different formats and highly recommend this workout. Check it out if you’re new to exercise, bored with your routine, recovering from an injury or just wanting some cross training to improve your overall fitness.

Unfortunately I couldn’t take a class here because the owners refused to accommodate my disability. They are a no shoes studio but because of a foot disability I need to wear special orthotics. I brought clean shoes that I wear inside only and explained my disability to them but they refused to accommodate me and I had to leave since I cannot otherwise preform the activities without pain. I’m disappointed because I was excited to take a class here.

I had a lovely experience at this studio today! The instructor and front staff were warm and friendly and the studio was very clean. Went in for the cardio class and came out feeling rejuvenated. Thanks Bar Method Oakland!

I love this studio! I’ve been taking classes for 4+ years at this studio and love how their attention to form and safety has made it possible for me to confidently workout throughout my pregnancies, as well as postpartum. Bar Method is always a challenging, efficient workout and yet also able to accommodate so many different stages of life and ability levels.

I'm pretty new to yoga (have attended a few classes over the years, but never really "got into it"), and I have fallen in love with this studio! Rachel and the other instructors I've taken class with so far are wonderful - so welcoming to a beginner, giving good guidance on which classes could be the best fit and offering adjustments to poses that may be too challenging. The vibes here are excellent, all the other students are very friendly. They have a sister studio on Grand Avenue that is also lovely, if you get a monthly pass you can go to either location. Extra bonus - the cutest / sweetest dog at the Laurel Studio :-) This is a neighborhood gem, so if you live in the Laurel or nearby you should definitely check it out!

I attended a Power Yoga Foundations class here to start - My friend had started going and she gifted me a free class. I have never found a yoga studio I liked, as I am usually put off by the intensity of the yoga (like it's a competition for how flexible or strong you can be). However, this class was a breath of fresh air! The teacher was very quick with the different variations of moves, or how to use assistants to further your practice (blocks, straps, bolsters, etc). I never felt like it was a competition, and felt that that the teacher just wanted all of us to have a good practice. I loved it so much I proceeded to sign up for a monthly membership!

I love Left Coast! What a wonderful studio (both locations are), friendly, warm, inviting and they offer classes all day that are empowering. So far I’ve tried the yoga classes and pilates ~ love them all. Rachel the owner is inspiring and such a bright light of love. Thank you Left Coast!

I love this studio! I discovered them through ClassPass, and started taking Dana's alignment class, which is consistently one of the best classes I've taken in over 25 years of practicing yoga. I've since purchased classes, have taken classes with Zach, Heather, Kiko, Rachel, and Melissa, and I have not been disappointed. This is my favorite studio in the east Bay. In addition to great teachers, their communication is excellent, and they are continually growing and expanding their offerings. The community they have built is friendly, open and welcoming. Come check them out - you won't regret it!

I’ve been attending classes here regularly, and I’m so grateful for this studio! The teachers are insightful, skilled, and bring such a depth to each class. My children also take capoeira here, making it a wonderful extension of our school community. The owner, Rachel, is approachable and truly cares about creating a welcoming and supportive environment. I highly recommend this studio to anyone looking for quality classes and a great community connection!
