Truve Fit

• Alison

Fresh: Just wanted to reiterate how amazing Truve and the community Alison has built is. Alison and the folks at Truve make you feel like next door neighbors, they want to get to know you and welcome you in to their community! If you're interested in strengthing your fitness journey, start here!! Original: I had so much fun at the class with Alexis, I have been describing my experience with friends as pain free yoga. I look forward to making this part of my weekly routine. Alexis helped me feel comfortable and educated on the movements, correcting me in areas that I am aware of unbalances. For my first pilates experience I am thankful to have come to Truve!

This isn’t really a review about a gym. Truve is not just one of the most unique fitness studios I’ve ever belonged to. It is a community of people dedicated to their own wellness, as well as the wellbeing of one another. My husband and I moved here at the beginning of the summer. I’d had a complicated couple of years with my health. I knew I needed to do something different. I needed to get strong. Pilates Strength Training with Allison has been a complete game changer for me. My body is healing. I’m doing things I didn’t know I was capable of. And, I’m making new friends. The kind that remember your dog’s name, or ask about that thing you casually mentioned in passing last week. The kind of good people that check in on each other outside of the gym. The Truve community has made me feel like Oakland truly is my new home.

Truve is an amazing gym and fitness community. The facility is super spacious with multiple floors, and offers a variety of classes 7 days a week. Classes include bootcamp, TRX, cycling, yoga, Pilates and more. I look forward to taking group classes there every week.

I won an auction for 3 Pilates reformer classes last year and I haven’t stopped going! I knew I had to start building strength for my health, but was having trouble motivating myself to go to the gym. Alison’s classes are fun and challenging. I can tell I’m so much stronger than I used to be.

TRUVE is more than just a fitness studio. It’s a community dedicated to helping people become stronger, healthier, and more confident. Allison has built an incredible team of knowledgeable trainers who genuinely care about their clients and are committed to helping them succeed. One of the things I love most about TRUVE is the variety of classes offered. Whether you’re interested in Pilates, HIIT, TRX, strength training, or other fitness formats, there’s truly something for everyone, regardless of your fitness level or goals. The trainers do an excellent job of meeting people where they are while still challenging them to grow. The schedule is flexible, making it easy to find classes that fit into a busy lifestyle. What keeps me coming back is that no two classes feel exactly the same. The workouts are thoughtfully designed and constantly evolving, so there’s always something new to look forward to. The variety keeps things interesting, prevents boredom, and helps you stay motivated. If you’re looking for a studio that offers expert instruction, a welcoming environment, diverse class options, and workouts that deliver results, I highly recommend TRUVE. Allison and her team have created something truly special.

Truve is hands down one of the best gyms I’ve ever trained at. The studio spans three stories and is filled with all of the equipment you could want for any discipline, from strength training to yoga and pilates. You never feel like you’re fighting for space or machines, and everything is clean, thoughtfully organized, and well maintained. The trainers here are definitely the best part. I've been training with Nando for a long time, and he's been instrumental in helping me stay consistent, improve my form, and continue making progress without getting injured. Alison, the owner, is not only a great coach herself, but she's also built a team that’s highly knowledgeable and genuinely supportive. Whether you’re just getting back into a routine, trying to stay in shape, or looking to break through a plateau, this is a place that will motivate and challenge you throughout your journey. I recommend Truve to anyone serious about their health and fitness.

Truve is a community treasure offering every element to help you achieve and maintain fitness. Yes, the gym/building is gorgeous, outfitted with an incredible variety of equipment (all clean and functional!) and yes, the breadth of classes offered is more than adequate to serve the fitness needs of every and any body. But the best part is that Alison (the owner) & co. are truly attentive to the specific needs of each and every student/client who comes through the Truve door. I am at the higher, older end of the workout/gym rat demographic and have experienced many, many gyms, trainers and Pilates studios in the Bay Area throughout the years so I have a large sample from which to compare Truve. No comparison! Truve has it all, hands down. Doesn’t get better than this

Truve is seriously the best spot for finding a personalized fitness path. Even the group classes really accommodate the needs and levels of each individual. I've taken HIIT classes and large group pilates classes elsewhere and the quality of instruction at Truve is on a completely different level. Before starting there, I had been feeling held back by injuries that were brought on by age and an imbalanced workout routine. Working with Alison in particular has helped me overcome that. There's also such a warm, welcoming, fun, community vibe there.

Truve is an amazing space and offers a diverse offerings of fitness classes and personal training. I take the strength Pilates class with Alison and love it. She keeps the class fun, challenging, and really listened to her clients. Plus, she has the intuition to know when to push you just a little harder and when your body might need a more gentle approach. Highly recommend checking Truve out!

The Pilates classes at Truve are fantastic. All the instructors are excellent and class sizes are small so there's a lot of individual attention and guidance with emphasis on good technique and safety. The level of difficulty can be tweaked to your needs so there's really something for everybody. The owner Alison is super friendly and makes it a point to really get to know all of her clients. I'd highly recommend it!
