EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is my favorite gym!!! Highly recommend!!!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am not a fan of working out, but I am a HUGE fan of STLA! I knew when I hit 70 I needed to do something to re-build my strength and stamina to keep up with 4 grandchildren. Working out with Jonathan has allowed me to exceed my expectations! I am able to lift heavy grocery bags, get in and out of my car at record speed and carry two kids at a time all while keeping my balance. I convinced a few gal pals to join me and we have been committed to 3 days a week for more than a year. Cheers to staying strong!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been coming here and working out with Jonathan for 6 years. He is a really nice guy and cares about your success more than any trainer i have known. I am grateful to have found him. He is extremely knowledgeable with anything that has to do with the body. I have had many injuries he has helped me rehabilitate. Got a current injury? You don’t have to wait to work out. Book a time with him and explain the injury he will take it slow and help you fix it. When I started with him I had a severe rotator cuff injury that he helped me fully recover. I didn’t think it was going to be possible to work out but he always finds a way. I’ve also seen him take people with serious chronic injuries and get them in shape. I could not do a single push up and now I can do 30. He’s helped me fully recover from issues related to tennis elbow, back spasms, IT band, plantar fasciitis, groin. Some of these injuries I thought I would have all my life, but the body is a miraculous thing if you know how to work with it. What he has explained to me is when you build muscle up you also need to spend time loosening it up and breaking it back down through deep massage and stretching that you can do on your own. If you want to get in great shape and you want to work towards being injury free or learn how to work around your injuries, I’d highly recommend coming here.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I started training with Jonathon during an extended trip to LA and I’d highly recommend STLA. I hadn’t done personal training before and I appreciated that he took time to initially understand my goals (strength training and balance) and then he curated the workout accordingly. As a former NFL player, he has a wealth of expertise in training and nutrition. STLA has a lot of resources to build a sustainable routine. There’s an app with daily workout plans and options to do virtual personal training — all of this is helpful if you’re traveling and want to maintain a consistent fitness regimen. I’d also recommend this gym for the opportunity to support a local business and entrepreneur. Jonathon’s top priority is to create a community feeling in his gym and it always feels like a welcoming environment. He makes a point of introducing any new people at the gym - especially during the boxing classes.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It’s very rare that you will have an owner of a gym that’s as hands on as Jonathon. He knows exactly how to help you achieve your fitness goals as long as you stick with the plan he maps out for you. Whether you’re a mother of 2 or a student-athlete, he WILL help you get better, faster, stronger - whatever your fitness goals may be, he’ll help you achieve. Couldn’t recommend STLA gym enough.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been working out with trainer Jonathan Amaya for around 3 years now. He is truly the BEST! He works with me and my shortcomings ( 2 knee replacements and one ankle replacement) and we manage to train effectively and I’ve gained a lot of confidence in my abilities that I never thought I could overcome. He’s a true motivator and I find myself trying to accomplish what he sets as our goals! I highly recommend him!!!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Jonathon as a personal trainer. I started with STLA three years ago and have continued virtual workouts since moving away. Jonathon creates a welcoming community at STLA where we all encourage each other. His workouts push me physically AND mentally - I’ve been able to tackle many of life’s challenges with Jonathon’s guidance.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been working out with Jonathan for 5 years now. When I first met him, I weighed 200 lbs, could not do a single push-up, and had a bad rotator cuff injury. I thought I was going to need surgery but he worked with me consistently to fully recover my shoulder. He’s also helped me overcome a bad tennis elbow injury. I can now do over 30 push-ups and at 48 years old I am proud to say I’m in the best shape of my life. His understanding of the body and exercise is something very special. Any pain or tightness I have he works with me to find the source of the problem. Often tight muscles can be the cause pain elsewhere in the body, and his understanding of where to look and how to fix them has opened my eyes to the interrelatedness of the body. There have been times going into the gym, where I was so tight he shut the whole workout down and pulled out the massage gun and the massage table. It may sound nice but trust me you’d rather be working out. Releasing a tight muscle can be painful, but once he finds and fixes it, you’re off to the races again, instantly sometimes. His workouts are whole body workouts. They are not negatively impactful to your body but that does not mean they are easy. He will push you to where you want to be. Since he is passionate about his own workouts he continuously incorporates his findings into your workouts. You will not be doing the same workout twice. Ever. I do think Jonathan is the best personal trainer in LA. My wife has been an exercise instructor for 20 years and she agrees. You simply won’t find someone with this passion for exercise, knowledge of the body, and attention to detail all in one package. On top of that, he’s a great guy that cares about people. I left LA 2 years ago, and have still been doing workouts 2 days a week via FaceTime. If you want results definitely workout here, you won’t be wasting your time.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best gym in LA! Every time I visit LA I make sure I get in a workout at STLA! Jonathan is an amazing trainer, definitely recommend!
