I have been coming here for a while and love all of the instructors and classes. This review, however, is a shoutout to Victoria who works the desk. I had a very minor issue with my bike and I simply wanted to let the studio know, only so they can fix it for the next person. I let Victoria know on my way out of class and she immediately asked my name and without hesitation let me know that she would take care of it and credited my account with a class. She was nothing short of professional, caring, and friendly. Shoutout to Victoria for amazing customer service! It’s because of people like her that we come back!

Kaitlin’s class is amazing. Definitely not for the faint of heart but if you really want to push yourself and see what you are capable of this class is it. Every class I get into the best workout high with her awesome playlist and just pedaling along. Highly recommend if you are trying to get your cardio and endurance up. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a lovely spin studio for an out-of-towner to drop into. The staff were extremely welcoming and accommodating. The class was difficult and pushed me appropriately for sure. The studio is adorable!

Thank you for the class Grit Cycle! I look forward to dropping in if I make it back to Costa Mesa.

As an avid cycler in New York City on business in the area, I dropped into a grit cycle class, and I must say I had the most amazing experience. The instructor energy, the energy in the room, the music – highly recommend!

This studio is the best!! Clean spaces, wonderful instructors and great energy Every. Single. Time. Taken quite a few of the instructors and I keep coming back to Charmaine and Kaitlin. Both kick my ass in the best way and they are the anchors to my week. 10/10 would recommend Grit to anyone getting in to cardio or long time cardio lovers. The best!!

My newfound health addiction! I started coming here in January and got hooked from the first class. Now I’m there twice a week, rain or shine! Everything about this place is 5 stars! The center is clean, modern, and intimate. The equipment is new, and always feels very well maintained. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Huge plus that they call you by your first name. I rode with a few instructors, and they’re all great in their own way. But I must say my all time favorite is Charmaine. She’s caring, she’s encouraging, her music rocks, and SHE rocks! I can’t wait to get to her class every week and feel incredible at the end of them. She has been the starting point of my health journey and has positively affected me more than I can ever put into words. I highly recommend both this center and this instructor. Love love love them!

Kelli is such an amazing instructor.

Knocked off stars because the room can get so stifling hot and stuffy (and sometimes very stinky) that it can be almost counter productive to the workout.

Also, the front desk customer service is good, but not amaaazing. .

Really disappointed in a lot of aspects of this place unfortunately. The classes themselves were fun and challenging enough, but my overall experience will keep me away. I was yelled at for adjusting my medical device in class. Thank God I’m confident and secure in my disability, otherwise being called out like that unnecessarily could have really sent someone to a bad place. I usually try to talk to a new instructor before class starts to inform them of my medical stuff, but I couldn’t get the attention of the instructors to save my life. In all other studios I’ve been to, they really talk to you to make sure you feel welcome and comfortable on the bike, etc. Not here.

I have zero respect for teachers who aren’t on the bike at least 75% of the time. If you can’t do what you’re telling others to, it’s a bad look in my opinion. Every staff member I ran into was the exact opposite of welcoming. After both of the classes I took, I tried to chat with the instructors after. I’ve been cycling for 5 years and have been asked to teach. I always love to get to chat with other instructors, but the instructors here were beyond rude to me. I was sticking around to talk to one, when she finally turned around and snapped “thanks for coming” and went back to chatting with friends. Definitely not welcoming. I won’t be back. If you aren’t experienced in cycling, you’ll feel like trash coming here.

I am not typically a fan of public workouts so I was hesitant to join my friends, but I figured I would try it out since the first ride is FREE. I am so glad I did! The playlists are great and I appreciate the motivation and positive energy. Feels like a daytime rave, and the darkness/neon lights are just a bonus. All of the instructors are wonderful at pushing you in the best way, but I admit we have a particularly soft spot in our hearts for Charmaine. Try it out!

P.s. the chilled Eucalyptus towels they give at the end of class are life-changing.

GritCycle is more than just a spin class. You can feel a sense of community when you come here. The classes are challenging, but fun. The towels are a nice touch too. One to wipe away the sweat, and another cold eucalyptus towel to cool down.

Love this place! Wish they still had their Anaheim Hills location open.

I used to go here a lot back in 2014! It is a good workout but I almost fell over in the dark room today, so I used my phone light to help me so I wouldn't hurt myself. The girl leading me in was not very nice about it - which is the second or third time I've encountered staff that were rude or dismissive toward me. I don't think she needed to be unkind, I can understand she was in a hurry to get me set up but she walks around in that room more than I do and she had an iPad which gave her light to guide her! I thought it was a little inconsiderate. Another reason I will not go anymore is the music uses profane language and one song was about "staying with the devil and getting paid for it" - I'm sorry but I find that really offensive and unpleasant to work out to :(
I will continue looking for a spin place that is more wholesome and family friendly.

It's a great work out. Period. Seems like about 90% women or more? So, the vibe reflects that. As a 50+ male I have a few peers there. But, mostly, I really like the work out. And I have a few favorite instructors:. Lisa, Charmaine, Kelli at the very top, for me.
The social vibe is good, but lost momentum in the pandemic. But anyway, you wanna cardio blast, Get Gritty!

I can’t recommend this place enough: the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The facility itself has all the fixings and is very clean. The studio has a killer atmosphere with coaches that bring out your best!

If you need a recommendation for a coach, you have to ride with Andrew. His energy fills up the room and he takes you on a dynamic journey of joy, work, and sweat.

I’ll be back!

I would recommend this business as is. An indoor cycling class with good music. But that brings the issue. We live almost a block away and hear the base rattle the entire building. (The air-conditioning on their roof vibrates with every beat) I don't want to know how awful the people that live right next to it must feel. The music starts blasting in the early morning around (5.30am) and it's just absolutely not ok. Our friends moved because of the grit cycle.

I get that it pumps you up during your exercise and it's the whole point. I love spinning classes. But you need to do something about the music being heard outside the building. (And I am not talking as a swift sound... no, it's a club right on Cabrillo)

Wow this place really blew me out of the water! I am new to cycling but with the amazing friendly atmosphere, the disco feel to the inside, and the amazing music I will be coming back much more often! They make cycling fun and offer everything you need to be comfortable including ear plugs if you think the music is too loud and a eucalyptus towel at the end. This place really goes above and beyond and the atmosphere is more than amazing!

I love this place! The instructors make great playlists and such fun workouts. I think it’s the best spin studio in Orange County. It’s a much more welcoming vibe than SoulCycle and the music is a lot more modern and fun to listen to. I’ve gone to about 6 workouts here, and I think I’ve found the studio I want to commit to in OC. Give it a try!!

Feb 2017 "My home for spinning. The instructors are excellent and the facility is for spinning only. It's a little expensive comparatively but it's consistently a great workout. The spin room is tightly filled with bikes on theater seating levels. Some bikes are a little to close but most have sufficient room. They keep the room warm and don't turn the fans on much which is a little stuffy but appreciated once the sweat starts rolling. I have been to many spin facilities in Orange County and I always come back."
Feb 2018 "This place has literally turned into my 2nd home. The staff is amazing, from a friendly welcome to fetching a water or towel if needed. The instructors love what they do and it shows. Spinning to the beat is life changing. Plenty of payment options along with regular flash sales help. I have found that paying a flat monthly fee is best for my massive spin addiction. Give it a try."

Great workout, fun energy. This is a popular spin studio so the classes are usually at least half full. There is a water station to refill your water bottle and they provide a workout towel. They also have a shower on-site.

Best spin studio in Orange County. Studio is clean, staff is friendly, instructors are upbeat and the vibe is great. You can hang out after class on the deck and enjoy cool towels and fresh fruit. Feels like a New York Spin Studio. You have to try it to believe it.
