I’ve only been to a few classes at Sanctuary Fitness, but I’m really enjoying it so far. The staff is very welcoming, and the studio is always clean. I appreciate the variety of workouts, and the instructions are clear and easy to follow. The class times are convenient, whether I go before work or in the evening, and the amenities are great. I’m excited to keep coming and be part of the community here!

Really great workout studio in a very central location in OT Pasadena. The instructors are a lot of fun to work out with and the community is awesome! Equipments are regularly restocked. Overall studio is very clean with lockers and shower. Parking is $1 in the parking lot next door or you can do street parking for free before 11am. Every day is truly a different workout so it’s never boring going to Sanctuary Fitness!

Sanctuary Fitness is the perfect workout studio for athletes of all levels, including those just starting out and those who have been involved in fitness for years. The workouts change daily, and are unique and challenging. No matter what mood you're in going into the studio, you'll quickly be energized by the staff, instructor, music and group. There's a wonderful community aspect and a growing number of events to bring together outside of the typical class schedule. I can't recommend Sanctuary Fitness enough!

I started going to Sanctuary at the beginning of 2024 and this is probably the most regularly I've worked out in a while! I've been working out on and off for the past few years, but Sanctuary makes it easy to work out regularly. Each day is something different; all you need to do is show up and work. I love how varied the classes are! The trainers also walk around and fix your form. You'll definitely walk out with a good sweat every time. The front desk staff are also so sweet and accommodating! Also, love how positive the Sanctuary community is too!

My favorite gym that I've been a part of for over a year in Pasadena! Each day is a new challenge working out a different body part and pushing yourself each time to be stronger. Each class ends with a "Sanctuary moment" where the trainer sends a message of positive affirmations while you wind down. All trainers are fun, professional and will motivate you to do your very best. Front staff are welcoming and friendly each time you come in. Best part is the community! You will meet fellow members that have similar fitness journeys without judgement and encouraging you to never give up. Highly recommend you try it out and sweat with us!

Sanctuary Fitness Pasadena is hands down the best gym experience I’ve ever had! The classes here are incredibly challenging, pushing you to your limits in the best way possible. What I love most is that they cater to all fitness levels, so whether you’re a seasoned athlete or just starting out, you’ll feel right at home.

A special shoutout to Sarah, who is absolutely the best! She has an incredible ability to motivate and guide you through the toughest workouts while making sure you’re doing everything safely and effectively. Her energy is contagious, and she truly cares about helping each person reach their goals. Sanctuary Fitness is more than just a gym—it’s a community, and Sarah is a huge part of what makes it so special. I can’t recommend this place enough!

My fav workout! The most consistent gym I've been able to keep up with.

The scheduling works really well with my personal schedule and I like that it's the same throughout the week. Staff is super friendly and helpful, the coaches are encouraging and play excellent music, and most of all the community inspires me to want to be stronger. I enjoy the little member perks like: bringing guests for free every month and special health & wellness events.

Huge plus are the showers and towel service which really help for a pre-work workout! So nice to not have to lug towels and products to the gym! There's also an InBody machine which gives you stats like weight and body fat percentage.

Just hit 100 classes - yay!

This is my second month as a member of Sanctuary, but I really appreciate the community-oriented vibe of the gym. I trust the trainers to correct my form if it needs adjusting, which is important as a nervous newbie lifting weights lol, and they do so in a supportive, encouraging way. They push you to keep going and go harder, but also aren't drilling you if you need to rest for a rep or two. I've really enjoyed Sanctuary so far and would encourage anyone who is interested in a dynamic, ever-changing workout to give it a try!
