I live between P4L gyms on Mission|Castro and FIDI. I like this one better because of coach Garrett. I change my schedule to make sure that I can attend his class. He is new coach but he goes extra mile to make sure that you perform exercise correctly. He also experiments with routine to find what will fit better for specific group. I definitely recommend P4L gyms to anyone who wants to stay fit and healthy.

It was my second time taking a group exercise class with Perform For Life, but my first time taking a Small Group Class at this location. I took the class with Coach Jon and it was definitely one of the sweatiest classes that I've been to. He went through all of the exercises clearly before we began each circuit. The exercises made my muscles burn-in a good way, and by the end of the class I was ready to just lie on the floor. Coach Jon is funny and engaging with the rest of the class and encourages each person to do their best. While I haven't taken many classes at P4L, it's clear that he wants us to know that everybody at P4L is a part of the family.

By far the best small group class I have taken in SF! I am always traveling so it is hard to find a gym with classes that run all day. The location is a nice size and has a nostalgic feel to it. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a personal training studio that feels like home.

I did group exercise classes for a few months here. The gym was too small for me. The size really limited the amount of different exercises one could do so you were doing pretty much the same workouts every week. The classes were also too crowded when they were full and often the classes you wanted would fill up before you could get a spot. The coaching was ok given their constraints though.

I have been working out at P4L for about a year,
first with Anthony Pitsch and currently with Taylor Kennon,
both excellent trainers and pleasures to work with.
I feel better and have more energy,
and I like to think I look better too.
I'm 76 years old, and I would recommend P4L training
to anyone, but especially to those of us getting older.
It's a pleasure with a lot of rewards,
and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

I've been attending small group fitness classes for 5 months and I am the strongest I've ever been. All the coaches are motivating and genuinely kind people. The weekday morning classes are a great mix of body weight, dumbbell, kettle bell, and TRX training - with some HIIT thrown in. The coaches are also always working to improve the gym - open to suggestions and critiques. Love P4L!

I have to say, this team is just awesome! Not only have they helped me lose 27 pounds, but they are constantly educating me on nutrition, various methods of exercise, etc. If you are looking for a boutique gym with a no nonsense approach, then you have found your new home here at P4L.

P4L is a family. There is an amazing relationship between customers, owners, and staff. I feel like my trainers listen and respect me. I feel they listen and adjust the planned routine (in real time) to any pain I feel. They also know when I am just whining or killing time. My trainer even bought me wedding gifts (a miniature foam roller and lacrosse ball to take on my honeymoon).

P4L is family. Their small group classes are fantastic, all the staff are knowledgeable and thoughtful in their approach and they remember your name. If you choose to have 1:1 training you won't be disappointed

Almost 4 years later this is my second home. With my continuous struggle of scoliosis I decided to enhance my life with adding one on one trainings at P4L. I avidly did the shared personal training sessions which was and still is exhilarating, effective, and powerful. My choice to get one to one personal training was to hone in on getting a better quality of life and really getting the help to find exercises to enhance my performance. Cheri has been my personal trainer for almost a year now and I am extremely fascinated by her technique and ability to scientifically find exercises that have really enhanced my life. She is extremely educated, present, & filled with knowledge. Every session I feel stronger, challenged, and supported. She is tactful and really takes the time to curate the best movements and techniques to make me stronger. Best decision I have made to take care of myself more.

My fiance and I have been doing the small group classes here for a few months and it is awesome! I used to do crossfit, but this is a much more sustainable approach to working out (and life). They focus a lot on the core, which is great for someone like me with lower back problems. Coach Charles is the man and coach Melissa will kick your butt! Enjoy!

Been doing small group classes and I love it. Very challenging in a great way. The coaches pay a lot of attention and adjust the exercise for your skill level (both easier and harder). I love that there are different workouts with different coaches to change it up as well! Everyone has been so nice. It definitely has more of a community feel that I haven't seen at most gyms. Would highly recommend P4L!

i LOVE this place! The owners are the best part because they created such an awesome environment to work out in..but it is more than just a gym it's a place to grow and learn what your body is capable of doing! My coach Charles is worth every penny and more! He has been gentle yet firm to push me to do the best i can! I highly recommend!
You will have no regrets except not having known about them sooner!

Coach Bryant is knowledgable and offers cutting edge routines for top tier world class athletes, as well as regular people just looking to be fit. I highly recommend this place

I have been working out with Coach Charles and Amber since March. I enjoy the diversity of the workout and their stylistic differences. They are both extremely knowledgeable and push me to achieve things I thought I could not do; however, if I am having a low day due to fatigue or stress they meet me where I am and provide encouragement to help me achieve my goals. The entire group at P4L is awesome and very accommodating!

The entire staff at P4L is so welcoming and awesome to work with! Small Group training is always challenging and fun!

I trained with Charles for three months to prep for my wedding and it was the best choice I could have made! Charles has a great way of pushing me to do things that I would never do working out on my own, while also helping to understand the mechanics and the reason why I am doing the exercises. Charles' laid back attitude and calming presence makes workouts fly by. He consistently listened to the exercises I enjoyed and helped to tailor my workouts to the things I enjoyed.

Most importantly, I can see a huge difference in my strength and body composition since starting to work with Charles. I had particular areas that I wanted to target for my wedding dress - Charles not only improved those areas but also improved my entire body. He paid attention to my body composition and my strengths and weaknesses and worked to improve those.

I love everything about the P4L community. These days the title personal trainer does not mean too much, however the trainers at Perform for Life are indeed Movement Specialists. They take a personal approach by listening to your goals, doing an assessment, and help get you moving in the right direction. Plus, their community events are a blast. While P4L is not my primary gym, I still look to their faculties for my training and health approach. Appreciate you guys!

I've been doing the group training classes for about a month now at P4L and I wish I had started earlier! I already feel and look way more fit and I've noticed I'm more energetic and focused throughout the day.

I've had group training classes with Charles, Nathan, Amber, and Anthony so far. They all are very welcoming and they bring their own individual personality and fitness background to their classes. The group sessions offer a HIIT interval training style with a combination of body weight exercises, free weights, and stretching.

If you're looking for a fun and rewarding way to jump-start your physical activity level, I highly recommend trying this place out!
