I've been going to topnotch for over 2 years and it is hands down the best group workout class I've ever done. It started out as trying 1 class with my brother, and now it's my favorite workout. Every trainer there is personable, knowledgeable, and energetic. One thing I love is that every trainer pushes you, while also making sure you are using correct form and are performing exercises safely.
The owners are very kind and coach a majority of the classes themselves which I love! They are always willing to answer any questions and take note of any injuries or concerns, and follow

One of the best decisions I have ever made was joining Top Notch. Mehdi and Sepi treat their customers like family. They are dedicated to your fitness success. The workouts are always high energy and every fitness level can benefit. Not only do I feel myself getting stronger day by day, but I have also learned so much about proper nutrition through their nutrition challenge. Highly recommend!

When I moved from LA to OC last year, I wanted to find a gym that not only delivered a great workout, but where I could build a community as well. TopNotch is seriously a game-changer! All of the instructors are so motivating and energetic, and are attentive to every class member making sure they know how to perform each exercise correctly. Everyone in class is also really welcoming and supportive of one another!
Classes are never boring or repetitive, and can be tailored to your individual fitness level. Since joining TopNotch, I've learned how to (properly) lift heavier weights than I was

A couple of months ago, I was looking for a new gym, and my girlfriend suggested Top Notch. Usually, I am not a fan of group classes, but I thought I would try it. Right when I walked in, the trainer introduced herself and chatted about how their classes worked. I instantly felt at ease. Throughout the class, she demonstrated the exercises when I had forgotten what was next and corrected my form when needed.
The instructors are so helpful and motivating. They are always in a great mood and pump you up throughout your workout.

Top Notch has changed my life in so many ways. I used to live in LA and have tried hundreds of fitness studios and TN is by far the BEST. The workouts are challenging but fun and my body has become stronger and leaner. The owners, Sepi and Medhi, make everyone feel welcomed - they have formed a community that feels like a family. I have recommended the studio to several of my friends and after one class, they're hooked!

I am new to the area and was looking for more than just a traditional gym. I was looking for a lifestyle change. This is definitely the place I was looking for! I joined the 4 week challenge and I feel better than ever. They are so encouraging and helpful! They make you feel like family. I love this gym and will continue my journey here!

AMAZING RESULTS!!!
After a year long break from gym workouts I chose TNF to get my pre covid body and healthy mindset back. A hidden gem, privately owned and operated which mean no corporate vibe. This gym offers something for all fitness levels and age groups. Even when classes are full it never feels crowded. The space is well organized with many exercise options. After a recent challenge I dropped 7% body fat. I simply attended 5 workouts per week and followed food recommendations fueling my body with more protein and water. Never have I ever had these type of results with eating more and

In the beginning of 2021 i was looking to join a fitness gym since i enjoyed doing HIIT workout back in college. I was trying out a few other gyms and Top Notch Fitness was on my list. I tried out my first day (push/pull) and I loved the energy of the gym and also the variety of exercise that the owners curated. I was still a bit skeptical so I just bought Class Pass of 30 and went in about 3 times a week or so. Over time I find myself loving this gym more and more and so when I was on my last class pass, i decided to join their membership!

Top Notch literally has changed my life!
I’ve been coming here religiously five days a week for almost two years now and I’m so grateful for my Top Notch Family! The owners, Mehdi & Sepi literally treat their members like family and they combine their expertise with a fun atmosphere for working out! You never feel like you’re doing the same workouts and they are very good at helping all different levels! Before Top Notch I didn’t have a strong desire to workout consistently and didn’t like where my physique was at.
Everyone who’s ever come to this gym truly loves it and my friends

I got lucky to start TopNotch group classes over the extended stay that I had in california this summer. I attended their classes for 3 months and enjoyed every single class. At the start I was a true beginner in not knowing the right form for moves like dead lift. TNF great coaches walked me through the detailed steps of each move and helped me find my confidence in hard core exercise that they offer. After a week I got addicted to their classes in a way that it was hard for me to start my mornings without attending their 6 am classes. The class vibe is very positive and energetic and the community

Top Notch is by far the best group training gym I have ever attended. Top Notch lives up to its name because of the fantastic staff and environment. The equipment is very well taken care of and clean. Each instructor livens up the class every time. Whether you have never worked out or work out all the time, this is the place for you. Although it is group training, the trainers are very attentive to every individual in the room. The whole staff makes you feel welcomed and comfortable. Their nutrition challenges are one of the best additions to how unique Top Notch Fitness is. They get the best results

Equipments need to be sanitized after every use. You guys don’t sanitize you have the members sanitize on their own and the majority don't clean after themselves. Its like going to a restaurant and me having to clean my own table if i want my table cleaned. As a business, owner should care about costumer service and the well being of people knowing how contagious things are now. And if you want to know why? It is because I got covid from here and still recovering. I was not going anywhere but here and home. Its also not good to post pictures like people are wearing masks and when you get there

My number one problem in life was not liking to workout. Hated gym, and having a personal trainer for a while could get very expensive.
This place solved that problem for good. I am working out with a trainer in a group of people I so look forward to seeing.
I literally get excited about running to the gym and work out with a group that feels like family.
My body has been transformed. So did my mind!
Thanks to Sepideh and Mehdi for their amazing leadership, knowledge and attitude.
Thanks to all the other girls as well who make it a fun place to work out, laugh, and grow, everyday.

Sepi and Medhi are amazing trainers. Their classes are always high energy, tough but encouraging, and they really care about how each of their members are doing.
They've helped me keep a consistent workout routine through recovering from injuries with personalized modifications, through video classes during the pandemic shut down, and are always available for any fitness advice.
They have several group classes each day, focused on different areas of the body. Each class has a different mix of high-pace exercises where the trainer shows you the correct form and modifications for each exercise

About 9 months ago I moved and was in desperate need of a new gym and BOY did I make the best decision coming into Top Notch. The gym is one of the cleanest gyms I've ever been in and is SO atheistically pleasing! Not only that but the owners and coaches are the BEST. I'm greeted every single time with huge smiles and I never feel uncomfortable during a workout because they are always willing to provide the best advice or even simpler moves for the ones I can't do. The clients and community who come to class have all been coming for years and have become such great friends. I&apos

TopNotch is the place where you'll find the best results for your money. As a mother of three kids with a full time job, I was struggling to find the time and motivation to workout and stay in shape. I have found a large family at TopNotch that motivates me to do better each day. It only takes 1 hour of my day and the results are so worth it. I'm 46 years old and I feel better and stronger than ever before. The instructors are not only very professional, but they're very enthusiastic and will push you to do your best.

After completing a personal training session with Mehdi, I really found my spark back into working out and focusing on my health. Not only was he professional and a wealth of knowledge, he knew exactly how to push you to meet and exceed your goals. I'm personally grateful I had him help me get back on track with my fitness journey and find my drive in working out again. I also have taken a few of the HIIT and mobility classes which were always inventive, challenging and FUN! I highly recommend Top Notch Fitness as an addition to your regular gym routine. I have seen much improvement in my health

Everyone is always so positive and the workouts will leave you feeling so much better about yourself. It’s even better that the coaches will push you to your limits and boost your confidence.

I can not say enough wonderful things about Mehdi and Sepi and TopNotch Fitness. Their enthusiasm is so infectious that you actually look forward to your workouts. Their classes will make you sweat, but are very easy to follow along at any level or age. I recently turned 50 and these classes have helped me keep toned. I have never been a workout queen and am very surprised that I have not lost interest in coming here, which is a testimony to both Mehdi and Sepi. You feel like your working out with your friends, while listening to great music and encouraging each other. It's a wonderful

I’ve been a member of a couple gyms in the past but there’s nothing quite comparable to finding a gym that you get to call home…I found that at topnotch. Almost a year later and the gym just keeps getting better, the workouts are challenging, fun and completely customized every week. If you are looking for knowledgeable caring trainers that take personal interest in each and every one of their clients, fun and challenging workouts, a motivating class atmosphere and a great group of people then you’ve come to the right place. I highly recommend this gym and have nothing but great things

If you are looking for a clean, motivating, friendly, and upbeat gym environment, well you have found the best place! I could not be happier to have found this gym. This gym, the trainers, and the other clients have became my second home and family. Everyone is so motivating, friendly, and welcoming. The trainers are very patient to teach you new workouts if it is your first time attempting a new workout routine. All of the trainers learn to know your individual capacity and know exactly when they are supposed to motivate and push you which I absolutely love because who does not love a good a push

I don't think I'll be able to put into words how much I love this gym! I started coming here in December of 2019 after I had my daughter. I love taking classes and I love having a gym community . This place is not only both of those things but Mehdi and Sepi push you to do your best, make sure you are doing each workout correctly and the people I have met here have quickly become friends. I started with the 3 class Groupon and knew after the first class I'd be signing up and coming several times a week.
Now I come 3-4 times and week at night and am in probably the best shape mentally
