And honestly? We wouldn’t be here without YOU—our incredible clients and supporters who inspire us every day. We’re building this together! 👥

“On any given day in Oakland’s buzzing Hive courtyard, a space known for its creative energy and local culture, you’ll find people lifting, laughing, and pushing through personal boundaries at Nu Fitness.

This people-first approach has earned Nu Fitness a loyal following, a thriving fitness family, and most recently, the title of Winner in the 2025 Best of Oakland Reader’s Choice Awards for Best Personal Trainers.
