Truve is doing the best job humanly possible during the Covid crisis. Classes have been held online since it started, and once they were allowed to have outdoor classes, those started immediately. Alison Roessler Campbell, the owner, does a fantastic job as a trainer and is incredibly supportive of all her members during this unusual time. So if you are looking for a fitness center that has found a way to keep people in great shape during the pandemic, this is the place to go!
If youre looking for a gym that makes you want to work out, where you gain strength and confidence, and if you love to laugh while during burpees, this is THE GYM for you. Alison has created a supportive and welcoming environment for people at every level of their fitness journey. Im so grateful to have a place for safe, outdoor workouts, and a trainer who continues to push me to do my best.
Ive been coming to Truve for 4 or 5 years and still havent gotten bored. Alison and the other instructors constantly challenge me and Truves outdoor classes during COVID have become the highlight of my week. They also offer virtual classes, and Alison often has fun challenges that you can opt in to. Highly recommend for people of any ability level. Huge thanks to Alison for being such an awesome business owner and leader in our community!
This place is awesome! Amazing classes, knowledgeable and fun instructors and killer workouts! Do yourself a favor and try them out.
A spectacular gym that can meet all your needs from personal training, Pilates, strength and physical therapy. The owner Allison is an incredible trainer, instructor and a beacon of the community. The people and classes are so motivating and I would highly recommend it to anyone.
I was looking for a personal trainer after realizing that I needed to get healthy & happy again. I gained about 40-45 pounds over 4-4.5 years. I reached out to a ton of Oakland trainers & only 3 actually got back to me & two were from Truve. I think this says a lot about the trainers who work there and return calls even if they may not be taking new clients. Luckily, Ive been able to train with Alison, the owner and Im very happy with the progress Ive made so far. Not only do I go to Truve for personal training, Truve is an amazing gym that has a ton of different classes and there is plenty of space. Im so happy to be a member of the Truve Family. Everyone who works or goes there is friendly and its a comfortable, motivating & supportive environment. The space is big and the gym is kept clean and tidy. Most important, Truve is a gym that truly cares about giving back to the community and making fitness available to everyone. They provide free community classes each week which is really awesome. Truve has designated parking spots (YES!!!) and great class times for someone working 9-5. Im so glad I found Truve & Alison!
I love Truve. Its all I have ever wanted in a gym. Great classes, great instructors, and class passes! I hate being stuck with a membership that I know that Im never going to utilize so the class pass gives me flexibility. Definitely check it out!
I go to TRUVE for the acupuncture. The gym is set up for 1 on 1 training and group aerobics and yoga. The Acupuncturist is named William and he is an amazing healer. Genuine, caring and skilled.
Im a newer member but Im stoked to be here, after weeks of looking at the schedule telling myself Id go I finally did it, signed up for a membership, and have started attending some classes. I felt very welcome even though Im a total out of shape beginner. Allison and the other instructors have made me feel like I belong here which helps me motivate myself to go. So enough about me, the classes are great! There is a ton of variety and you can really find anything you need here-yoga, Pilates, barre, boot camps, suspension, weights, cycle, and what I really like are the variety classes that you may do a 20 minute spin class, 20 min weights, 20 min core and stretching. The variety keeps me motivated and entertained right when I think I cant do that task for a moment longer it switches up. So cheers to your health, whether you are a newbie like me or an athlete Truve will meet you where you are and motivate you to do your best
Went here for personal training sessions with Alison. Make no mistake, she will make you work! That being said, she has great knowledge of anatomy, and a wide breadth of exercises to strengthen problem/injured areas (knees, elbows, shoulders, etc.). Highly recommend her to anyone looking to get in shape.
Morgan gave the best massage I ever had
Wonderful classes that challenge you. The staff are friendly and k owledgable. Full service locker rooms with all the amenities. PARKING!!!
Truve offers spin, boot camp, yoga, Pilates and many other classes in a really beautiful space, seven days a week. There is also individual training sessions available, for those looking to go it alone.They offer one week free trails, so there is no risk to trying it out yourself!
I took two great classes (TRX + Barre & World Beats) that left me sore the next day. The studio is much larger than I expected and has a variety of services from classes, pilates, spin, spa, gym equipment, etc. If I wasnt moving, Id definitely join this gym. Its conveniently located, great instructors, many amenities, clean and feels more welcoming than most other gyms.
Allison has built a special place for the community to find great affordable training.
Conveniently located training facility. I tried a TRX class that was a great workout (first time trying TRX...). The instructor was helpful and motivating.
Theres so much variety in the schedule and whenever I go I feel welcomed by the staff, almost like family.
Love this place! Very personal and inclusive.
I cannot say enough about this place. Ive worked out with a lot of trainers in a lot of gyms and taken A LOT of classes all over the bay area. From the moment I walked in I instantly felt comfortable. All the trainers and staff are professional and friendly. I dont ever feel like I should be a certain shape or size. Its all geared towards getting stronger and feeling comfortable in your own skin. Ive also never laughed more working out than here. I look forward to training here.The facilities are state of the art (pilates reformer, spin, studio classes, pilates mat, dance classes, every gym toy you will ever need) and the amenities are where its at. They provide everything from face wash to gum in the locker room. You can workout and head off to your destination without skipping a beat.Its a complete health & welleness center...estheticians (facials, waxing, lash extensions), massage therapists (thai massage, swedish, deep tissue), acupuncture, nutritionists and even spray tanning.What can I say? I might be slightly obsessed.
The Volt class is fantastic!
