Push Your Limits

I've really enjoyed my classes at the Combine, they change daily and depending on the day has different focuses, so each class feels very dynamic. Ashley is an amazing coach with great energy and motivation, and will push you in a challenging but achievable way. She's got great knowledge not just of the exercises but overall programming. She's def one of the best coaches I've taken.

The Combine has become my favorite way to start the day - 7 AM workouts for the win! The community my brother and I have found here is not only kind & supportive, but truly inspiring (smiles and laughter are infectious here). The knowledgeable staff (thank you Alex, Imani, Ash, John, Veronica, Tyrone, etc.) go above and beyond to make sure each of us are surpassing our workout goals and reaching our highest potential - all while playing the BEST beats (make sure to attend a Saturday morning workout with DJ Nikki LIVE!) Not to mention my body has been undergoing a MAJOR transformation since I started training here in January ‘24; the compliments have boosted my self-esteem tremendously. I recommend The Combine with all my heart; hope to see you at 7 AM soon! 😉💪

Love the dynamic workouts that keep your mind and body engaged each time. The class is a mix of ages and fitness levels that all show up in support of each other. Coaches create a fun atmosphere with positive energy, clear instructions, and great music choices.

I had the absolute best experience at The Combine in Oakland! I was visiting the area for 3 weeks and felt instantly at home, they have a great community vibe! The gym itself is well equipped, the workouts were consistently challenging and well-structured. Coaches Ashley and Alex are incredible: tough but motivating, and always ready to offer adjustments to help you push yourself safely. The energy, the people, and the music (seriously, the music!) made every session something to look forward to. I’m so grateful I could keep up my training while away from home, and I can’t wait to come back!

The Combine is the best gym in Oakland! No matter where you are on your fitness journey (total beginner - super fit athlete), Alex and team will help you improve your mobility, strength, balance, and endurance. Classes are quick but efficient and coaches are knowledgeable, welcoming, and fun! Alex has done an awesome job creating an inclusive environment for anyone to come and get a challenging and impactful workout in a safe and welcoming space. Music is on point as well. If you’ve been putting off getting back into the gym, this is a great place to start!

I absolutely love this place. Imani is one of the best fitness instructors I’ve ever had. She brings the upbeat energy and positivity while also providing direction on form. I’ve never experienced such an attentive instructor who is able to provide so much 1 on 1 coaching in a group setting. She is absolutely amazing. The classes themselves are also great, a good variety of exercises, equipment and challenge…and always room to modify where needed.

If you're looking for a group fitness studio in Oakland that pushes you and gets results, The Combine is definitely worth checking out. Here's what I love about The Combine: Variety: The Combine offers a variety of high-intensity training styles, so you can find something you enjoy, whether you're into agility cardio, full-body strength, or something else. Great Community: The instructors at The Combine are all motivating and knowledgeable, and they create a really positive and supportive atmosphere in the classes. "I love Monday's and Wednesday's!" Highly recommend!

The Combine never fails to amaze me with how consistently it raises the bar with its world-class programming. They're always pushing our community and keeping us on our toes! Joining this gym seriously propelled my fitness journey, especially after getting off track during the pandemic. The coaches bring fun and passion, teach proper form, and push us physically and mentally. The music is awesome too. I came for the workout but stayed for the community! It's super diverse and welcoming. I’ve always been intimidated by group fitness classes, but this gym has totally changed my perspective. I don’t see myself turning back! If you’re looking for a challenge and a shakeup in your fitness regimen, I highly recommend The Combine!

Absolutely come to The Combine. It’s an amazing work out with alternating strength and cardio focused days. They change up the moves so you never get bored. My fat % has gone down and muscle % up 💪💪💪 Alex got me fully ready for a Hyrox competition. Ashley worked so close with me and helped my knee recover through subtle modifications. The community is super supportive and positive, music is on point.

Let the record show- I am not a huge review leaver. I LOVED MY WORKOUT CLASS AT THE COMBINE. If you are looking for a gym where you can trust to get a killer workout don’t look further. I did a 7AM Wednesday class and left feeling fitter and stronger. The dopamine rush was insaneeee. Alex had an amazing playlist, great vibes, and kept me working hard and smiling through a challenging and rewarding workout. Would recommend for athletes and beginners alike.
