Super fun place to train and lift. The pump classes are high energy and the powerlifting classes are supportive and informative. Really community oriented and they even have a non profit to provide free coaching to Oakland youth. Coach Jason and Pela and all the other trainers are knowledgeable and awesome to work with. Definitely recommend!

I've been training at Get Bent on and off for 4 years, and I can't say enough good things about this gym. The classes are so much fun! Pela and Jason are both incredibly motivating with their clients and have helped me with my own strength goals but also overcoming personal barriers. After a bad bike accident they were there for me and helped regain my confidence to keep moving my body while knowing its limits. I just adore them both and am so happy for their ongoing success, growing community of friends and neighbors, having events, and just being rad people. Thank you!!

Coach Jason and Pela really understand what having a gym is about. Community, knowledge and results. Between the both of them you can have all the positives of a small gym without any of the drama or bs. As much as I don't want my gym to be crowded, I have to recommend this place so others can experience this as well. Highly recommend

Best Gym in Oakland. They have a big space with lots of room for weight lifting and group workout classes. And they have all the best weight lifting equipment. The trainers/coaches, there are very knowledgeable, kind, create killer workouts, and play dope music. The owners are the Best! They're super friendly, know their s**** and they have created a friendly, inclusive, fun environment. If you value overall wellness, justice, community, equity, and having fun, they do too! They have classes every day of the week, come check it out. Co-owned by Women of Color! Queer friendly!

Great trainers, great people, great workouts. What more could you ask for? Fitness in a judgement free environment and a group of motivators to keep you aligned with your goals. Highly recommended!

An excellent gym with excellent trainers. Rarely do you see a gym like this, that is so heavily invested in their local community. Skills, outreach and education to empower members both physically and mentally.

Get Bent is AWESOME!! Coach Jason and Coach Peliala are both some of the very best trainers that I've worked with. They are super knowledgeable about training, the human body, and nutrition. They can also adjust your training to support other supports/movement you are passionate about (for me, that's dance). They are welcoming and inclusive. And they are fun, compassionate humans. They have classes as well as personal training. They host community events as well as powerlifting events. And during the pandemic they've been doing even more work to support local black youth athletes. It's dope.

The best of the best. Got me back into a routine after years of not taking my fitness and nutrition seriously. They are motivators, experts in their field. And they actually CARE. Jason, Pela and their staff are undoubtedly here for the community. They show their dedication through their actions. Call them ASAP to get your fitness and health in order!!!

Get Bent is run by cool folks that are not only super knowledgeable trainers, but genuinely good people. They host the dopest, friendliest, most inclusive lifting competitions around. They even have a gender-nonconforming category. Neat! Its a cool place to train and make friends. J and P are also both super committed to inclusiveness and diversity in their gym and do a lot for the community at large. Love this spot. Check them out if you like to lift heavy stuff with cool people!
