This Gym has everything for your fitness needs. They keep the place immaculately clean, the staff is friendly & helpful. The Manager runs a tight ship staying on top of any problems. I’ve been to many gyms in my life, love this one!
Great staff and ownership! They know what they are doing when it comes to fitness.. Gym is clean.. Everyone is friendly and encouraging! Great programming for you to hit your goals!!
Ryan is an amazing coach. He probably doesnt even remember the casual observations hes made to me over the years, which, when putting them into effect, has caused dramatic improvement in my movements and long term fitness goals. But thats just him to help without needing anything in return. He supports you without shame, makes the workouts fun with his sense of humor, his knowledge is legit and trustworthy, and the community hes built as an owner is truly inspiring, welcoming, and safe. A true professional in every way. I absolutely love coming here every day. I do supplemental work with his brother, Bryan, here as well, and ditto to all the above regarding Bryan. I need to buy their mama some flowers for raising such incredible humans!! I highly recommend taking the leap and trying it out; you wont regret it!!!
Ryan is amazing. He is filled with passion and most importantly knowledge on the human body. He takes the time to get to know each individual and knows what is the appropriate scale or prescribed weight/move to reach your goals. He can watch you and point out your weaknesses and strengths. I have gone to other gyms where its all about pushing your body to injury....NOT HERE! Here you will work on your strengths and weaknesses. Here you will surpass your goals.Ryan has not only the certificates to show his knowledge but he also has his masters. An athlete who understands how to push people but keep them safe. I have the most absolute love for this facility. Grateful that there is a coach that is dedicated to each individual who walks in the door. Thank you, Coach Ryan! I look forward to each class, each post because it is filled with knowledge bombs!!!!!If you are looking for a place to sweat, crush your goals, and meet amazing people. This is the pace for you. Filled with positive energy and genuine love and respect for one another. I am so proud to be a member of this gym and community.
Ryan is amazing! He has taken the time to really get to know what my specific needs are and work with me on them. I have a shoulder injury and that was no problem. I am a little older and that was no problem. His personal attention to every single client is a testament to his professionalism and work ethic. Highly, highly recommend him and his fitness techniques to anyone!!!!
I have been the fat kid my entire life, i never felt that i fit in at any of the gyms i tried going to and it seemed to always turn into a fat shaming event or being stared at and laughed at while i tried my hardest to lose the weight, when i started at this gym i was 300lbs and extremely depressed, a friend referred me to coach Ryan (The owner) and it took me several months to gather up the courage to actually step through the door, i can say honestly going here has been a life changing event for me, in under 8 weeks with coach ryans guidance i have lost over 20lbs, i have gained friends and found confidence i never knew i had and i am thankful every day i get to come here. Coach Ryan is incredibly knowledgeable and he looks out for you to make sure you are doing things right so you dont hurt yourself, he really makes it a point to not only educate you on form but takes the time to watch and help you along the way, if you are looking for a new gym you owe it to yourself to come here.
I always tell Ryan (the owner) I THOUGHT I knew how to work out before I started training at his new gym! Its been nothing but fun and a great learning experience training at Open Gym. From the classes to the Personal Programming I purchased with Ryan, hes there to make sure you hit you fitness goals and succeed.His knowledge on the lifts and movements he programs are evident by his verbal cues, demonstrations and the way hes able to tailor each work out to every ones physical limits. No ego, no pride, no bull you might experience at other places.If youre looking for a friendly environment to get fit, smash your goals and meets some great people along the way. THIS IS THE GYM FOR YOU!!!
A phone thats answered regularly could really help business. Dont drop the ball on professionalism.
Freaking great. Love this gym. It’s got everything you need and everyone there is there to work plus the coaches are smart about pre/rehab which is super important to me.
I have trained at many different facilities and Crossfit Orale is by far the cream of the crop. The coaching staff is very knowledgeable and patient with their clientele, always going the extra mile to ensure concepts are understood and executed appropriately and safely. I started working with Coach Ryan about a year ago and I have seen every aspect of my fitness make leaps and bounds. The community within the gym is more family than friends. They are there to pick you up when you fall, but also to celebrate the milestones whether big or small. This facility offers the total package that is often talked about, but rarely found. I highly recommend this gym for anyone of any skill level! Best gym in Burbank!
Since starting my CrossFit journey 4 years ago Ive learned the importance of community and what it means when people find their CrossFit Family. The moment I walked in the door at Open Gym my heart filled with a since of belonging and I knew immediately without a shadow of a doubt, this was my new crossfit home. Ryan and Bryan are not only amazing coaches but have a plethora of knowledge that they arent afraid to share whether youre taking class or, like me, in open gym doing individual programming. Its my home away from home where I spend 2-3 hrs a day. I love this place!
Ryan is amazing at teaching technique to make sure you are in good form, that you understand the movements, and are safe. He is good at scaling things to your skill level and based on issues you may have, while still challenging you to keep working for more, but safely. I am new to the gym environment and was nervous to go based on hearing things about various gyms, this is not one of those gyms. Crossfit Orale is a positive place to reach your fitness goals and meet people who are encouraging and judgment free. I am happy to say I am working through my fears of weight lifting and have made some great friends. I look forward to every day I am able to go. I would recommend this gym, it truly is a place that you can make your fitness goals happen and enjoy the experience!
I started Crossfit about 3 months ago and one of my friend recommended me this gym. To this day no matter how tired I get after the workout,I am always excited to go back again the next day and I would thank Ryan(the owner) who has been an amazing coach.Ryan pays close attention to your techniques and training with him has been fun. I always feared lifting weights but he has helped me overcome that fear in a slow and controlled manner. He takes time to know each individual and thus he is aware of your strenghts and weakness. Above everything else,the atmosphere at this place is really nice and people are super friendly. In short, a great place to burn some calories and make good friends.
Ive been doing CrossFit for just over a year & joined Órale at the beginning of June. I live two blocks from another gym but make the drive to Burbank for many reasons, but the two Cs are top of the list. Coaching & Community.Coach Ryan is a master of his craft. His book knowledge matches his coaching knowledge & experience. He explains and demonstrates the movements and workouts, goes through scaling options (I am currently injured & have still been able to participate in every class) and his attention during the class is unmatched. He gives verbal & non-verbal cues which make a huge difference every time. His programming is rock solid & every workout ends with me feeling like I worked hard & made progress towards my goals. (Oh, and the playlists during workouts are FIRE)Then comes Community. Ryan has built an incredible community at Órale. I was welcomed warmly on my first day, and everyone in the gym said hi & introduced themselves. They are friends in the gym and out of the gym. Everyone is really nice; encouraging during workouts and ready with high fives & fist bumps when its all over! At the end of the day, if were going to suffer through a workout, it may as well be with friends & a coach who make it fun, no matter how miserable the work is!The gym is clean & well equipped. I am a clean freak & it makes me happy knowing that the place is kept clean, that the brand new gear is kept clean & taken care of. Not many CrossFit gyms have the culture of wiping down sweaty gear when youre done & putting everything back in its place - Órale does.I could go on & on (like how epic the Órale merch is) but hopefully what I wrote above is sufficient for you to make the decision to drop in & join us for a couple classes and see if you want to join our family! Dont let your perception of CrossFit or what you see online & hear via the grapevine deter you from stopping by, no matter you fitness level or age, you will be able to jump in, have fun & sweat!
Gives me the best workouts ever. The trainers there are fantastic
I have trained with Ryan for years, first at a CrossFit gym and more recently at his own facility, Open Gym. He listens and adapts intelligently to his different clients and classes and runs a great hidden gem of a facility with high end gear. He has multiple CrossFit and weightlifting certs, and years of experience coaching and strength training both girls and boys high school teams, CrossFit classes, and personal training and custom programming. He also has a Masters in Exercise Science which you wont find in most personal trainers. In other words, he knows what hes doing but hes always striving for more information. Hes built me from an invalid with a bad back to stronger and more fit than Ive been in over 20 years. I highly recommend this facility.
Great box, great Crossfit family, love the environment and energy, coaches are awesome. Perfect place to workout.
The trainers will make you grind and this place will help you get big 💪🏼
This probably hands down the best gym I’ve ever been to. 💪🏽
This is the box all other boxes should aspire to be. Why?The Staff: Ryan, the owner of Crossfit Órale genuinely cares for each and every member. He is very welcoming, encouraging, and has a unique ability in understanding each members needs, strengths, and limitations to better assist them in reaching not only their fitness goals but also their personal goals in life.His an owner who is dedicated to character and values beyond the fitness side of things.Technique and safety are important here. Truly! Proper form will not be overlooked.The instructors precision on accomplishing any exercise, is outstanding. Every single class will emphasize how a proper lift should be done. Demonstrations and scaling options will be shown in every class.Ryan and Bryan (coaches of Crossfit Órale) knowledge and positive energy permeates the group sessions.The Community: Here at Órale you will be welcomed with open arms . Everyone greets one another as they walk into the gym and says their bye as they walk out. Everyone supports, cheers, and encourages one another to improve themselves not only during a workout but also outside of the gym. The members at this facility are simply AWESOME.Family Friendly: Both me and my husband are members and it has been helpful for us to come with our daughters, as there’s a playroom for children (woo hoo!! :D) My oldest is always happy to come with me due to cheerful hello’s from all the staff and members and the friends she’s made with the other kiddos that come. And my youngest, well she’s not even 1. But I must say as a mom who is less than a year postpartum I have learned to trust the process and that came only with the help of the well-trained, intuitive coaching I have received here at Órale. (Can’t state enough the excellence in coaching I’ve witnessed and experienced.)I can go on and on but just come check out Crossfit Órale yourself. You won’t be disappointed!(Also a shoutout to Andrea, Ryan’s wife. She is the sweetest and encourages all of us there when we’re sweating it out.)
Great coach and programming!
Friendly staff. Clean facility. I came from SJ and they didnt have LA fitness here .
