Is the fitness studio available at any time?
Our fitness studio is available to members and guests when classes are not in session. When classes are in session, and you must enter the studio, please be respectful and quick so as to not disturb the class. Our participants thank you!
Do I have to sign-up for studio classes online?
Reservations are required. Bookings open 24 hours before the class begins. Please note that guest passes cannot be used for advanced online sign ups. Online reservations are available to members and paying non-members only. Once you have completed your booking, please make sure that you receive a confirmation email. If you do not receive an email confirming your spot in the class, call the gym at 424-543-3820 to make sure your reservation has been received.
Why is your gym called the Cliffs of Id?
Our name is a nod to the book Los Angeles: The Architecture of Four Ecologies by Reyner Banham. Here, Banham breaks LA down into four categories based on how Angelenos relate to the local environment: Surfurbia, The Foothills, The Plains of Id, and Autopia. The Plains of Id refer to the flatland region between the beaches and Santa Monica, where Culver City is located. Thus our name, the Cliffs of Id.
(And “Cliffs” because, well, rock climbing!)
