My family and I have been members of the 12 for over three years. It’ has a gym and HIT classes. It’s perfect for all fitness levels. The coaches are the best! Their enthusiasm motivates you to get the best work out! I have been to numerous gyms and by far this is one of the best.

I have been going to gyms my whole life and it only took one class for me to sign up for the unlimited month membership. I loved the small town vibe, the clean equipment, the members are very friendly and down to earth and the trainers really care about what they do. On top of all that it is a GREAT workout and I never find myself bored! you definitely should try a class!

The group training is a fun atmosphere to workout in. With all different types of workouts, fun and change is inevitable. Cleanliness is important to them along with the availability of personal coaching. The trainers are all personable and encouraging wherever you are at on your fitness journey. The equipment is in great condition and the classes are dynamic.

One thing I love about the 12 is how it keeps me accountable! We all know how going through the motions day after day can get boring and repetitive. At the 12 Ive never experienced that, the workouts are always cutting edge, new and innovative. The staff is always friendly and it makes me want to work out and better myself everyday. Hard to find that in a gym, the 12 really is the best gym in Orange County!

My husbands been a long time member here and was gifted a free month to invite a friend this past Christmas. Lucky me was the recipient and I couldnt be happier. Everyone was so welcoming. The HIIT classes are challenging and every day is different so I never get bored. The trainers show us proper form for each of the days exercises and will show us how to modify if needed. The trainers are eager to answer any questions regarding health and nutrition. The equipment is sanitized after each station, in between each class, and then a deep clean is done each evening. Im happy with the community, have met so many great people, and signed up for 3 months to start.

I joined the 12 during the beginning of the pandemic last year. I thought it would just be a temporary solution until my gym opened back up, however, I am so lucky to have stumbled across the 12 and this community. The trainers, the staff and just everyone there has your best interest at heart. This is not any regular gym. This is a family. A community. My home away from home and I am so lucky to be apart of it.

Love love love this place! Have been taking group classes here for about 4 month now. Staff and trainers are incredibly friendly, fun, and motivating. It definitely doesnt have the typical boring corporate gym feel. Facilities are cleaned between every class and patrons are very respectful of the guidelines ie cleaning equipment and area between every station.

Updated review here! Just finished the 6 week challenge and it was amazing! The resources offered, comradery of the members, and overall accountability was incredible. Also the trainers continue to be awesome! Been a member for going on 6 years I believe? I cant recommend this place enough!!

The 12 was just what the doctor ordered when everything else was at a point of uncertainty during 2020. I previously was a member at the Huntington Beach location but began to travel a bunch for work in 2019 so ultimately canceled my membership. When I saw that the 12 was doing everything they could for their members to stay open, I knew it was time to get back into it and get out of my apartment. I couldn’t be happier with my decision and the amazing support of the coaches. I can’t wait to see my results from the first 6 week challenge of 2021!

This post is LONG overdue! The trainers and the community at The 12 have been such a HUGE part of my health journey over the past couple of years. The first time I came to the 12 was with a friend whom had been going to classes and I took advantage of the free class pass. Ive been going 5-6 days a week ever since!The workouts are fire, the staff is SO knowledgeable, and the trainers really care about your success! Give it a try. YOURE WORTH IT!!

Highly recommend the 12 for anyone looking for a challenging, fun, and community based work out. The staff and trainers are super welcoming, and make you feel like you are part of a family. They work with you on any fitness/wellness/nutrition goals you have, and they are super helpful answering questions about the workouts, supplements, etc. They also offer Yoga on Sundays which is always a great time.

The most amazing gym with the best group classes I’ve ever been to! Struggling with weight issues often over the years, I would always feel intimidated going to the gym. This place is totally different! They make you feel at home no matter what your size and no matter how you look. So glad I found this place !!

Last October my friend asked me if I wanted to try out the 12 with her and mentioned they offered the first class free. That’s all it took to get me hooked. I’ve tried a lot of different bootcamp style gyms and this one is by far my favorite. They will always keep you on your toes with new workouts and you will never know what’s coming. I usually take the same class every day but every once in awhile I will switch it up with a new trainer and it’s mind blowing to me to have them come up to me and recognize that I’m new to their class and introduce themselves. I’ve never seen that before at any gym I’ve been to! What a great way to make your members feel special!

The 12 is so much more than a gym, and I am so happy to have found it! From the knowledgeable trainers and staff to best in class facilities, the 12 offers everything from a traditional gym, class workouts and even wellness support. The community is awesome and I am so happy to be a member.

Love this gym!! The trainers, the staff, the workout and the facilities are all amazing! Also the music is on point! That is huge for me! Music really gets me through my workout and they nail it! If you want a clean gym with friendly faces and a family feel this is the one of you! I struggled to find a workout that I loved after the gyms closed down. Then I found the 12 and couldn’t be happier! Highly recommend!

If it wasn’t for Dana and Brooke I wouldn’t bother writing a review, but the deserve recognition for their kindness. They are two amazing trainers with great spirit and customer experience. True gems who are extremely knowledgeable.I was recommended by a friend and given the reviews I gave the gym the benefit of the doubt.However the membership customer service and Covid approach could use help.I don’t normally write post but disappointed in the lack of effort.My husband and myself signed up together, his first class he’s wasn’t impressed with the service and didn’t feel comfortable to go back.Their membership team didn’t make effort to obtain us member or even see why we no longer went. We truly felt used for a quick dollar.As far as for Covid it didn’t seem like there was real effort to ensure social distancing, classes are to crowded!

This is a very personal review of The 12....It has been 5 years this month (since March 2016) to when I decided to change the direction of my health. I was 198 lbs and teetering towards the two century mark. For my height and age, it was nothing but all bad!In the timeframe that I have been going to The 12, Ive made personal gains that Im incredibly proud of....With the guidance of all my trainers: Nichole, Uli, Eunice, Brooke, Dana, & Jared, I have maintained a healthier weight and learned to eat better.I have also made some great friendships. Im normally someone whos fairly introverted, but its impossible to not engage with the positivity this gym creates. Egos are checked at the door and you never feel like youre being judged.I got introduced to this gym and the direction of my life has changed.Training is part a healthier you and The 12 fit that part of my life very well, THANK YOU!!

Review №30

There’s a traditional gym and also a hiit training room with classes throughout the day at this location. The workouts are well put together and incorporate resistance training and cardio, targeting specific muscles each day for a well rounded fitness routine. The trainers are very knowledgeable and responsive to questions regarding my nutrition and fitness goals. All of the equipment is kept sanitized throughout the day and a deep cleaning performed after closing each day. Exercise is YOU time and you should feel at home...The 12 provides this warm environment.

Review №31

I started going to The 12 because my boyfriend attended classes there. When he described the classes to me, they seemed intimidating because I was new to working out and didn’t have much confidence. If you are new to working out DO NOT LET THAT STOP YOU!!! Before class starts the trainers will go through each exercise and explain how to do them properly. It also helps that you are in groups of 2-5 people so you can just copy what they are doing! ALL of the trainers are awesome and really push you like it is a 1 on 1 session. The only advice I would give someone who is new to The 12 is show up early and pick an exercise to start on. I always thought you had to ask to be in someone’s group but you really are just picking the first exercise you want to do lol. I love going to class because everyone that goes is very welcoming and friendly. I highly suggest trying a few classes!

Review №32

Really great effort to stay open during COVID, the gym area is certainly safer than the class area but at the end of the day everyone knows the risks. Appreciate just been able to work out.I’d mark this place a lot higher but on three occasions I’ve had really bad customer service, from the same individual. Unfortunately that has really soured my taste and I won’t bee renewing after this month. It’s honestly just been straight rudeness which is so needless.Hopefully they can bring their service up to the level of their gyms, equipment and trainers.

Review №34

Great trainer, great class, not Covid-Safe.I tried a class here this weekend. I was excited to try it because Id heard good things about the classes and was glad to know they are currently open. I was psyched about the outside tent. The class was fun! And the trainer was good.All that said, I wont return until things improve on the Covid front.The class experience now was just too crowded. It was like they havent made any changes to their operations except for being outside. Sure, there is lots of cleaning product, but thats not helpful if the heavy breathing person next to you has Covid. Im not looking for a perfect 6 feet circle around me as a walk across an area, but this place is just too crowded for right now. I thought it was crowded during class and then the teacher said 9 people had not turned up. I cannot fathom how 9 more people would have fit safely. Also, the trainer wasnt wearing a mic. She had to talk louder, which meant she had to walk around the class and so sometimes she came close by, which was again uncomfortable, at least for me.For some context, I dont think Im super paranoid about Covid. I go out to eat. I have taken an airplane and Im all for moving forward with life. Im just looking for safer choices and dont think this is one of them.

I have been a member of the12 since it’s inception in 2013 - Well, I actually took my 1st class three months after it opened ... It’s been a pioneer in the HIIT training community - It’s a lot more than a place to workout and get your A$$ kicked - It’s a group of like minded, healthy individuals who are all working towards their Goals and overcoming life’s obstacles —- the Trainers are the best in the Industry. The12 takes such great care of its members and has always been very generous with giving back and community involvement. It’s a very clean facility, well kept, the best equipment, and innovative - There’s an exceptional support team who learn your name the first day you come to workout —- What I love most about the12 is the comradery and teamwork during classes - Let’s face it, it’s a freaking hard workout but when you have everyone supporting each other then it makes it a lot easier —- And, the owners of the12 are incredible - they’re completely hands-on, and work their tails off to provide the best environment —- The outdoor facility they built (in less than 24 hours during Covid) for its members, could’ve made it on the cover of Sports Illustrated, it was unreal and there was nothing like it. If you want to get into shape, work hard, have fun, feel good and meet great people then I highly recommend the12 —- So! What are you waiting for!? ... Get on it!

The 12 has amazing trainers, but their customer service is the complete opposite. I unfortunately tested positive for COVID so I sent The 12 my results stating that my doctor no longer recommends that I continue in group classes. The person I dealt through email with was not understanding or offered any options to cancel my membership moving forward. I did not request to cancel my membership mid month therefore there was no reason this could not be possible. There is a reason that this gym is far less than the other gyms in the neighborhood, because their customer service is like nothing Ive seen before. We all are aware that times are unfortunate right now, but refusing to close when the Governor advised all gyms to temporary close is very tasteless and not showing that their customers health is a top priority.

I can’t even begin to say enough about what a positive experience I’ve had working out with Dave at The 12 Movement. I was lucky enough to be selected for a 60 challenge back in September and have Dave as my trainer. After years of trying yo-yo diets and work out plans, where nothing really stuck,I finally found a trainer and work out community that kept me motivated and on track. I no longer dread working out, I look forward to it and I miss it when I’m not able to go. In addition to the great trainers they have here, they also have the most amazing workout class instructors! Sarah and Lindi have been absolutely great! They are so supportive and motivational. There’s no shaming in class and they are always willing to help modify to your workout to your capabilities. In addition to that the class are just pure fun & energy!!! I always leave feeling better than before I came. Again a huge thanks to Dave for helping me keep on track with my nutrition and fitness goals, and giving me the opportunity and exposure to this workout family! They are all amazing!!!

I can say nothing but great things about THE 12! My husband and I work out with our trainer Alan at the Costa Mesa location Monday through Friday at 5AM. The staff is always upbeat and the customers are friendly and respectful of each other! The equipment assortment is maintained top notch, if anything is ever broken they are quick on the repairs. I love my daily workouts here as It sets the tone for day in a very positive way!

Love this place. By far the best class based gym Ive been a part of due to both the level of intensity of the workouts and the skill of the trainers. If you enjoy HIIT in a team environment, this is absolutely the right spot. It would be hard not to get into amazing shape by joining.

Review №46

This place is OK. The Boot Camp fractional training class area is pretty cool and really big. You can definitely get a great workout in here. I mainly want to lift weights and use the gym. The gym has a lot to be desired. Nice staff and great people here but the weight room and cardio is pretty limited. If you are looking for Boot Camp style classes this is a great place to go. If you were looking for a gym you may want to have another gym as back up. EX...Curl Fitness....equinox...

Davids energy, dedication and sense of humor makes him a great personal trainer. He believes in his clients and pushes them past their perceived limits. He has given me tips that have made a big difference in my workouts. He also has lots of nutritional info and will even set up a nutritional program for you. Like he says, 80% is what you eat! I have added a couple supplements that he suggested to my workout routine. Now I consistently feel stronger and my energy lasts longer during my workouts. I am 57 years old and really just started working out regularly a couple years ago. My goal is to stay strong and active all through my second half of life. Davids support has really helped me with this goal. So worth the investment!

I joined The 12 training classes a month ago and I have had the best experience out of every gym or fitness class I have ever tried. The 12 is not just a workout class where you show up, do minimal work, talk to one or two people, and walk out never seeing them again. It is a tight-knit community of people excited about their health and fitness goals and ready to work hard. I have never been a morning person, but now I get up at 4:30 a.m. to go to The 12.All the trainers I have met are awesome: Matt, Jessica, and Miquelle. They know what theyre talking about and have a great mix of humor, energy, and work ethic. Im also very excited about a new trainer starting in the next month, Taylor. Highly recommend these specific trainers and The 12 Costa Mesa!! Two thumbs up and all my fingers and toes. =D

A good friend of mine started this gym a few years ago called the 12. It is much more than a gym if you talk to the members that train there. There are gyms scattered all over Orange County but some of the positive and unique attributes of the 12 are the people that train there along with the amazing staff. Yes its all top of the line equipment.. etc.. etc.. but the fun thing about this gym is the trainers and the friends you get to see at the gym when you go in to workout. Through a lot of work and effort they have really cultivated a top of the notch experience for their members. Thank you!!

Cant say enough about Dave as a personal trainer at the Costa Mesa location. He is incredibly knowledgeable about nutrition and fitness, and hes one of the most positive, encouraging persons Ive ever met. Even when hes kicking your butt, he somehow finds a way to make the experience a positive one. Always leave the gym feeling better (even if I cant walk the next day after leg day). Go to the 12. Ask for Dave. You wont be sorry!

My friend was looking for a good place to workout by her house in Newport. I found this place when visiting her and it was exactly what we were looking for... high intensity, strength and interval training.I then moved to CA from Chicago, missing my gym bad. So of course I went to the 12.Every single one of the staff is the best in their own ways - Austin, Matt, Jessica, and on. Drive, form, results, just enough silliness. You own the effort, they deliver the results. I drive 20 minutes to 12 Costa Mesa for 5AM classes - i think that says it all.

I have been coming to The 12 for over 2 years and LOVE working out here. I have been going to the group classes since I started out and recently started using the gym for weight lifting. Favian and David always help me out if I ever have any questions on how to use the machines or form. The group trainers Sarah, Alex, sarge and everyone are always so motivating and push you to work as hard as you can. I have brought so many friends to come work out with me and they all love it. It’s a really great community, especially for people that aren’t from here like myself, I have made so many friends and have pushed my health and fitness to the next level by joining this community.

The 12 has a vision for health and fitness and group training like I have never seen before. Every staff member, group trainer, and even gym members and class takers are the most supportive, encouraging, and hard working people!

The 12 reminds me how to have balance in life with long term goals, and that has changed my view of my own fitness and nutritional journey for the better.

I am coming here after finishing my contract with Equinox in Irvine. While this does not have the pampering aspects of that gym line, it more than makes up for that with the fitness equipment and staff. Its very clean and has a nice selection of equipment to use.

Ive been a member at this gym going on three years now, and the vibe of this place can almost replace my morning coffee each day...almost. I am one of the crazy people that works out at 5 am, and the staff and members always are so welcoming and friendly, its the best way to start each and every day. The group classes are awesome, everyone is always ready to give a high five during the work out, and when I do open gym, everyone is courteous to others with equipment. Judgement free zone for sure! I moved 30 miles away, and still cant find a local gym to replace it. Its worth the drive! Love this place!

The 12 offers great circuit training workouts with stellar, motivational trainers. It pushes me out of my comfort zone, and challenges me to do intense workouts effectively.

I work out at the gym every day but this group exercise class truly pushes you to do more. I’m working muscles I never used before! So happy with it so far.

The staff and trainers here are always so welcoming! Austin at the front desk memorized my name by my second class! Jessica is such a ball of fire! She may be small but her talent is big!

I just started personal training with Favian, and I really love it. I have never committed to a trainer in the past and he helps educate me and keep me motivated. I now have a diet plan, workout plan, and the confidence to lift on my own!

The friendliness, cleanliness and upkeep of the gym is amazing! I always leave there feeling great, even when I’m not energized to workout in the first place. I cancelled my membership with 24 HF of 15 years for this gym.

This place is more than a gym. More than just a room full of weights. The atmosphere, the staff, the trainers and all the members make it a home. All these people make this a place, for me, to escape to. I’ve been lifting for about four years ago and I started coming here a little over a year ago. I can honestly say this is the best gym in Orange County. All the front desk staff always have a smile on their face when you walk in and are always helpful. I’ve gotten to know a few of the group trainers and other personal trainers as well and they are always there to answer your questions and give you lifting advice which I’ve always appreciated. Favian Duenas, one of the personal trainers and front desk attendants, is a really awesome trainer and super knowledgeable about nutrition and supplements as well. He really encourages fitness as a lifestyle, not just a hobby and he has really influenced my love for the world of fitness. I will be a member here for the rest of my life!

You get out what you put in. Clean facility that is well staffed and has great trainers that go above and beyond what you have come to expect from other gyms. Not much more you can ask for.

Great training facility and faculty, smiles all around. Towel service is cool but not cooler than the water they got in the dispenser haha. Try the leg day circuit on tuesdays it’s pretty gnarly.

Just moved to the area and was looking for a gym to join. I looked into the 12 because it was less then 10 mins from my house. The people here are great and super supportive. Favian is great I walk in the door and he always greets me with a smile. I recommend this place to all my friends looking for a new gym. Check it out.
