Awesome staff, trainers and equipment. I used to be a gym guy and they have the best equipment. Now I do the classes and they’re my favorite. Admittedly not cheap but for what you get, a great value

As a professional athlete, I’ve never been to a gym that compares with my NFL training like Pharos. The range of classes, quality of equipment, knowledge of trainers and coaches are all elite level. There's a class for everyone designed to challenge and build everyone, no matter their fitness background or goals. The staff has a wealth of knowledge, but it's the hardworking, motivational, and kind atmosphere of the other members that make Pharos feel more like a second home than a gym.

I've loved my experience at Pharos! The community is genuinely welcoming and the coaches are outstanding -- they offer form corrections and always suggest modifications when I need them. The facility prioritizes function over flashiness, with everything you need for a great workout. It's refreshingly unpretentious compared to other gyms I've tried.

Pharos community is the vibe. Amanda’s core class is the best way to start the day. And alex train class is the best community work out. Can’t wait for the new bathrooms.

Pharos is the BEST! I’ve tried so many gyms over the years and I’ve never felt more welcome and encouraged than I have at Pharos. Huge shoutout to coaches Amanda, Alex, and Joe for their guidance and support. Pharos 4ever!!!

Have been going to Pharos for 9 months or so, it’s the best. Equipment is great, classes are plentiful, amazing people. Has a real community feel, and no pretentiousness, just a good vibe.Special shout outs to Amanda who takes Core, what a legend, and the boxing boys Graham and Aaron who are the greatest.

I have been going to Pharos Echo Park for about 6 months and have 0 complaints. The trainers are all really knowledgeable and so nice/approachable. The facility and equipment is always kept clean. The classes are amazing - my favorites are:Core with Amanda - challenging and humbling in the best way. I have never taken a class like this, and you will become addicted.Train with Alex - good vibes and energy, also super challenging but you'll be glad you did it.

This is hands down my favorite CrossFit gym in all of Los Angeles and I have tried a lot of them. I mostly go to CrossFit classes, but I also spend time in the open gym pretty often. The space is amazing. Bright, spacious, everything feels new and well taken care of. And the people here are truly great. Super friendly, welcoming, and always helpful. It just feels good to be here!!

I've been a member of Pharos for over 2 years. I love the space, coaches, classes, and community. Everyone is super welcoming and knowledgeable. I particularly appreciate Coach Alex and Coach Carlos who offer a number of conditioning and weight lifting classes and Coach Amanda who teaches amazing mat pilates classes. Pharos offers a great place to disconnect and enjoy a good sweat - as well as extensive hours, great equipment, friendly staff, and parking on site. Being a member of Pharos has only improved my wellbeing and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place to workout in the neighborhood.

Pharos Gym is an incredible place to train. The space is clean, well-equipped, and has a motivating energy the moment you walk in. The coaches are knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping you improve. Whether you’re just getting started or pushing to the next level, this gym makes you want to show up and put in the work. Highly recommend.

I tried a lot of gyms in the area before deciding on Pharos. This gym is huge! It is always clean and all the equipment is brand new. They have everything you can imagine. The staff here is amazing as well. They are all helpful, friendly, and educated. Have really enjoyed my time working out here and wish I could stay year round!

Joining Pharos has been one of the best decisions I've ever made, that's not an exaggeration! I've lived in LA for 8 years and have tried many gyms that I always wound up quitting for one reason or another. It feels like there's a real sense of community between the coaches and the other members, it's become a true third space for me. I love the quality of the classes and the variety they offer. On top of the classes I use the actual open gym multiple times a week which I think is what makes Pharos unique -- the classes are top tier but the gym itself is awesome and you actually enjoy being there.I love coach Amanda who teaches Core and makes what is arguably one of the most painful 50 minutes of my day equally my favorite. The core class is so challenging but it flies by because you're having fun during it and its genuinely changed my body for the better. Coach Alex is a true ray of sunshine and his Train/Build classes are some of the most fun I have ever. Another torturous hour that

Absolutely love working out here! I've been a member for nearly a year, and my fitness journey has transformed thanks to the amazing trainers. Amanda's Pilates core class is a standout, and Joe was great if you are looking for private training sessions. I appreciate how well-structured their classes are, fitting perfectly into my schedule. I take the early 6 AM classes with Alex and Joe, and they've helped me stay disciplined. The atmosphere is welcoming, and everyone is knowledgeable and supportive. Highly recommend this gym!
