I have been to many gyms, but not like this one. The gym is the perfect size for someone who wants to be able to use the machinery, ask questions if they are unsure about machines or classes and who is wanting a more comfortable/clean environment to work out in. The staff knows every face that walks in the door and is well versed in all levels of fitness.  The classes they offer are great and the instructors are always making the work out fun no matter how daunting the exercises may seem. From bootcamp to running on the treadmill, at Kentfield fitness you are not just a client, but a friend.

I searched far and wide for a good gym in Marin County. I tried all of the usual overcrowded and dirty mega-gyms with their long- term contracts and broken equipment.I almost gave up when I found, by accident, the perfect gym. I have worked out in dozens of gyms in several states and I enjoy the time I spend at Kentfield Fitness. It is the cleanest and most professionally staffed and maintained gym I could find. A hidden gem in Central Marin County.

…I am having the best workouts, and as I told Christine (Hallinan) today, since I began my workouts at KF and along with some dieting, I have lost 12 lbs during the first three months, and I have gained more flexibility and energy. And the gym’s vibe is so friendly and easy going, although the sessions at times can be intense.

I found my way through the doors of Kentfield Fitness by accident. I was meeting a personal trainer, who I hired to work with my fiance’ as a birthday gift. I had driven by numerous time throughout the years, never giving a second glance as I had my membership at McGym down the street. Upon looking around, I found the set up to be like no other gym I had seen. The atmosphere is more like a home than a gym, with a relaxed feel you just can’t replicate in a larger setting. The layout of the gym allows ample space to find your niche and stay focused. In addition, they have the latest in fitness gear, so I am never bored and have access to try new things to keep my fitness routine fresh. On the subject of freshness, you won’t find a cleaner gym in the Bay Area, which has allowed for greater peace of mind in sharing the equipment. The staff at Kentfield Fitness is attentive, friendly and eager to help you meet your fitness goals. I had the privilege of also working with Jerson, one of many personal trainers you will find at Kentifield Fitness. What I appreciate about the training atmosphere, is the camaraderie between the staff, the trainers and other gym members. I have had personal experience with other trainers approaching me to show me new exercises or correct my form, even though it was not their obligation to do so, rather their passion for what they do. If you are looking to break away from the chain gym scene, or just want to add some variety to your workouts, I highly recommend giving Kentfield Fitness a try.

For many years I resisted joining a gym because I felt most were dark, loud crowded places that catered to bodybuilder and aerobics fanatics. Thankfully Kentfield Fitness is the antithesis of that. Kentfield Fitness’  bright and airy space is filled with the major equipment and amenities one would expect without any of the waiting or pressure associated with other gyms.The large windows let in plenty of natural light while providing views of the passersby on one side and Mt. Tam on the other which make make my time on the cardio machines go more quickly. The   friendly staff is equally welcoming to all members which range in age from teenagers to senior citizens. It is motivating for me to workout alongside people of various fitness levels.Kentfield Fitness’ casual and supportive environment is what attracted me 18 months ago and it is what keeps me coming back 5 days a week.
