Our Approach to Fitness at our Culver City, California Location

Fitness at Evolution is not just a single class you take in isolation. We have classes that come after physical therapy, performance training classes, strength training, and one-on-ones that are custom to your unique goals and health. Our doctors of physical therapy have a diverse range of specializations, our techniques are industry-defining, and our classes are cutting-edge. Our focus is not just a workout for the sake of building muscle or getting stronger. We offer advanced training that focuses on the individual, whether that means slowly gaining mobility post-injury, raising fitness levels, learning a new skill, or simply just looking for a new challenge.

Our Fitness concept was created by expert physical therapists who are meticulous about proper form, movement and technique. You can see below how our knowledge has been used across our affiliates and partnerships.

We are proud to have been a Physical Therapy provider for:
