SMALL GROUP TRAINING IN IRVINE.
Don’t let the name fool you. This isn’t a crowded fitness class where you get lost in the back. This is personal training shared by up to 4 people. Same private garage gym, and I still coach every rep. You just have a team around you.
THE FORMAT
FOUR PEOPLE. ONE COACH.
For adults training with a partner or friends, and youth athletes training with teammates. Every session has four spots, and I coach all of them.
- 01
- 02

- 1:4 COACHING RATIO
Never more than four people. I see every rep and correct it in the moment.
- STRUCTURED STRENGTH
Everyone follows a plan built for their tier. Same hour, your own numbers.
- BUILT-IN ACCOUNTABILITY
Your group expects you there. That’s the part a solo program can’t give you.

FOUR BLOCKS.
Every session runs the same four blocks, in the same order, so you get stronger without getting hurt.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY
Venya knows exactly when and how to push each person. We like that he does not use a cookie-cutter approach and pushes me and my husband differently based on our goals.
Venya is a fantastic personal trainer. His garage gym has everything you need, and he makes every session feel personal and motivating. I’m losing weight, getting stronger and actually enjoying working out. Highly recommended!
I’ve been training with Venya for 8 years now. His passion for fitness is obvious in every session, and he brings an immense amount of knowledge.
Excellent coach. He designed specific workouts to help my child recover from a volleyball ankle injury and improve speed and strength. Highly recommend!
Venya is very dedicated, patient, friendly and knowledgeable. My son is really enjoying every training with him. Venya makes sure each exercise properly targets the intended muscles.
Is this a class like F45 or Orangetheory?
No. Those are “classes” where everyone does the same thing at the same time. This is small group personal training. You share the hour with up to 3 other people, but you might be doing a completely different workout than them based on your injury history and goals.
What if I can’t keep up with the others?
You don’t have to. In my gym, you are not competing against the person next to you. You are training with them. I adjust the weights and intensity for you. If you need to slow down or modify an exercise, we do it immediately. No pressure.
Do I have to come at the same time every day?
No. You can mix and match your slot times. If you usually come at 6 AM but have a meeting, you can switch to 5 PM (if there is space). We coordinate everything via text message so you have flexibility.
Why is this cheaper than 1-on-1?
Because you are sharing the cost of my time. You get the same facility, the same programming, and the same coaching expertise, but splitting the hour allows me to offer it at a much lower rate ($42.50–55 a session vs $72.50–85 for private).
