I started training with Christian Mesa about 4 months ago. Ive been on my fitness journey for a while now but I way ready to level up and that’s exactly what has happened. He keeps an eye on my form and previous injuries while still pushing me and motivating me to be my strongest self. Christian works with my crazy schedule and even comes on at 430am (which is saying a lot! Lol) Between the meal plan and training with Christian I am very pleased with my progress and exciting to keep going!

I don’t get to see many other people since I am there so early, but I’ve heard nothing but great things about the sense of community at this gym!

For the Culture Gym is without a doubt, my favorite gym in the valley!

The owners, Endria, Theron, and Jeremy, have created a very welcoming family feel environment. They ensure all members feel comfortable, regardless of their fitness level, while also providing motivation to help everyone achieve their best. They have made amazing upgrades and have truly maximized the space of the gym with the newly added glute room upstairs.

The trainers are highly knowledgeable in both fitness and nutrition. If you are serious about achieving true results, they are the best guides for your fitness journey!

I can’t say enough great things about For the Culture Gym! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and supported. The space is clean, well-organized, and has an awesome layout.

I’ve recently started working with Theron, and he’s truly one of the most skilled, knowledgeable, and motivating coaches I’ve ever met. He set me up on a complete coaching plan that includes both meal planning and a customized fitness plan, and the results have been coming fast! Of course, you have to be willing to put in the work—but if you do, you’ll see the difference quickly.

His wife Endria is also such a positive presence—she not only works there but trains alongside everyone, creating an environment that feels like a real community. Both of them are genuine, kind, and passionate about what they do.

If you’re serious about getting results and want to train in a supportive, professional, and uplifting atmosphere, For the Culture Gym is absolutely the place to be. 5 stars all the way! 💪🔥

I joined this gym about a month ago after it was recommended to me, and I’m so glad I did! I’m new to my fitness journey but feel super comfortable here. There’s such a great mix of people — all at different levels in their fitness journey — which makes the environment really welcoming and motivating.

Working with Trainer Victor has been amazing! His knowledge, dedication, and energy really come through during every session, and I’m already seeing results. 💪

I also love that it’s open 24 hours and that they’re constantly improving the space with great updates. Highly recommend this gym to anyone looking to get started or level up their fitness goals! 🙌

For The Culture is a cozy hidden gym. They have all the machines and free weights. Their trainers are the best and compliment the friendly atmosphere.

Best little gym in the Coachella valley. Great coaches and instructors that really know what they are doing. Followed the owners and my Trainer Christian Mesa from another gym over here and so glad I did. My body has transformed under their guidance and Christian has become a great friend on top of a great coach. From bodybuilding to just loosing weight and getting your health and body back under your own control this is the place to be.

Endria and Theron have created such a special space to work out. As someone who loves yoga, the gym used to feel a little intimidating, but I knew I needed it to strengthen my practice. From day one, everyone went out of their way to make me feel welcome. Now working out doesn’t feel like a chore or something I’m unsure about. With Endria, Theron, and the rest of the team’s guidance, you always have support to reach and even surpass your fitness goals. FTC is a clean, fun, drama-free community that truly welcomes everyone.

This gym is truly one of a kind! From the moment you walk in, you can feel the sense of community and genuine care from everyone. They don’t just see you as another membership, they see you as part of the family. The team goes above and beyond to make sure everyone feel valued.

It’s rare to find a place that cares more about people’s well-being and personal growth than the business side of things, but this gym does exactly that. Whether you’re new to fitness or experienced, you’ll feel welcomed, motivated, and at home here. I’m so grateful to be part of such a positive and uplifting environment!

Endria and Theron are the best trainers in the valley. No matter what phase of life I’m in, they have my back. Who would’ve thought the gym would’ve turned into my family! Love it here, especially since newly remodeled in 2025. Night and day difference!

For The Culture, For The Community

This gym isn’t just a place to train—it’s a movement. For The Culture is everything I’ve been searching for: intentional, empowering, and rooted in community. From the moment I walked in, I felt the energy shift. It’s more than clean equipment and smart programming (though they’ve got that too)—it’s a space that honors growth, grit, and grace.

Theron, Endria, and Jeremy have created something special. You can feel their vision in every detail—from the welcoming vibe to the way they show up for members. They lead with heart, and it shows. Whether you’re lifting, stretching, or just showing up to move through your day, this gym meets you where you are and helps you rise.

If you’re looking for a gym that feels like home, challenges you to level up, and celebrates culture, connection, and strength—this is it. I’m proud to be part of it.

Great compact gym, two floors for cardio, one floor for weights. Even though it is small, it has everything you need and more! Easy to drop-in using their app system if you’re visiting Palm Desert from out of town.

Fantastic gym in Palm Desert.
They offer monthly rates and drop in day rates. Very easy to use if you’re visiting from out of town.

Great variety of weights - dumbbells up to 130 and thousands of pounds of plates. Multiple machines to get a full body work out too. Couldn’t recommend this spot enough!

Great little 24/7 gym. Things are tight, but well appointed and highly organized. The only limitation would be that there’s not a ton of open space for body weight exercises, but there is some, and if you want machines, free weights, and cardio machines, it all seems to be there. I was able to accomplish everything on my workout plans with no need to modify. I was a daily drop-in, and that worked great and was very affordable. It was $10 to drop-in, and online payment, via website, as well as keyless access, via a 3rd party app, were both super slick. Parking was easy too. Every time I come back to town, this will be my gym.
