SPENGA Pasadena - Pasadena, California

I started coming to SPENGA in 2019 shortly after they opened. I’ve enjoyed the classes and the instructors are all great, but my experience today was pretty disappointing. When I showed up there were no iPads to check-in on and no front desk staff to manually check-in people. With no way to check-in there were no bike assignments and so we weren’t able to see our zones during the spin portion of the workout. Since there were no other staff present other than the instructor, this also meant there was no one to clean equipment after each portion of the class. In the end, some very nice members volunteered to help out our instructor, Joanna, by monitoring the front door after class had started to let-in any late-comers before locking the doors and also cleaning the equipment we used during the workout. It’s pretty shameful that this is the type of service and treatment that paying customers would receive.

I really appreciate Joanna for maintaining her composure and still leading us through our workout despite these circumstances. Joanna is an amazing instructor and she deserves all the kudos for everything she has done to make workouts at SPENGA truly rewarding. Joanna has given each of us so much support on our fitness journeys and it’s disappointing that she wasn’t given the support to do her job today as I know she is one of the reasons that has made SPENGA such a worthwhile experience for myself and others.

I never thought I would enjoy working out. Buuuut... this place is bomb diggity! With it being a little over a mile from where I live, I had to sign up when they opened up in early 2020. I love the variety, and how it's constantly changing and always challenging me. The workouts WERK my entire body every single time! Spin.Strength.Yoga. What more could you ask for? I always leave exhausted, drenched in sweat, but I feel stronger every time! I appreciate that the gym is immaculately clean and the staff is always super friendly. Two snaps, a twist and a kiss to the instructors! They notice when you're pushing yourself and constantly encouraging you to do you - your best! Such a great community here with people who want to build healthy lifestyles, which is super important to keep me coming back. Thank you, Spenga! You're the best! You complete me 🙂

I’ve been struggling to find a workout class that I enjoy and I’m so happy that I found SPENGA because I now can get a really good workout and stay consistent! The 20 minutes of spin, strength & then ending with Yoga is what intrigued me at first because I get to try 3 different classes in one and the workouts go by fast that you’re done before you know it. Within those 20 minutes you’re really put to work so don’t let the shorter increments fool you! The instructors are also what makes the classes enjoyable. They are fun, nice, energetic & guide you through your movements. I recommend for everyone to try SPENGA out if you’re looking for a good workout and some motivation!

I had done HIIT workouts for years. After experiencing a couple of injuries I had to seek out another kind of workout. So happy that I discovered SPENGA! 20 minutes of spin (easy on the knees)- 20 minutes of weight training and 20 minutes of yoga. I have to say that the yoga will likely take me longer to master
than the first two:-) Long story short - I love it! Look forward to going to each class. Staff is helpful. Great selection of class times to fit my schedule. Looking forward to getting stronger and more fit.

I was looking to join a new gym since the pandemic forced me to do home workouts on YouTube, ZOOM, etc., but after a month that got very old and I lost motivation. I tested three gyms in the area and was very impressed with my introductory classes at SPENGA Pasadena right away. I love the spinning and strength workouts, and really starting to enjoy yoga. Shantani and Shelby are amazing instructors full of energy, positivity and plays banging music--that goes great with the 60 minute workout! The staff is great and always greets members so kindly. I've seen them clean and sanitize the equipment after a class, and puts my mind at ease feeling safe during the outdoor workouts. I look forward to indoor workouts again. The Pasadena facility is just beautiful!

Going to SPENGA class is the best part of my day! After a long day, nothing is better than being able to take an hour to focus on myself and my well-being.
I love the structure of the class- 20 minutes of indoor spinning, strength training, and yoga! The workouts switch as soon as I start feeling restless or tired which makes it so enjoyable for me. I have a hard time maintaining workout routines in the past but I’ve been coming consistently for 2 months and eager to continue coming and getting stronger.

I was nervous about taking fitness classes after being sedentary for over a year but I have had nothing but positive experiences here and have never felt intimated. I tried working out at home but it was hard to do it alone and I knew I needed some sort of group fitness class. I have felt nothing but positivity and encouragement from the instructors and always feel so welcome by the friendly staff. I definitely feel like I am part of a community and smile every time one of my song requests make the daily playlist.

Plus I appreciate how clean and distanced everything is and how we have our own pods of weights and that I can see SPENGA staff cleaning up equipment after we are done using it during this pandemic.

I highly recommend!!

They make workout fun and you’ll love this place after you come here!
Cardio isn’t that bad if you just need to give it all for 29 mins, then strength training is great with different equipment, ending with 20 mins yoga is ?

If you're looking for a studio to get your groove back or level up your fitness routine, SPENGA is the place for you! Some of the most educated well rounded instructors in the biz where form is stressed and FUN is a must. Not just a safe space to explore new exercise methods and get your sweat on but a true community that supports and celebrates you and your accomplishments every step of the way!! LOVE YOU and THANK YOU for helping me become the very best version of myself! ?
