Functional Patterns Santa Monica - Santa Monica, California

Finally, a Workout That Restores Balance!

I’ve been working out my entire life in some form, but after years of frustration and pain, I had quit almost everything except strength training because every workout felt like a setback with a new injury.

Then I discovered Functional Patterns and trainer Adam.

Let’s start with Adam, he is exceptional! He has a deep understanding of the method, a great personality, and is truly dedicated to his craft. He’s not just another personal trainer dude—he actually gives a sh*t and makes sure you are making pain-free progress.

Now for the method (and believe me I have tried them all) Functional Patterns has been a game-changer for me because:
1. Restores Balance – After years of yoga and ballet, I developed too much mobility in my joints, especially my hips. This is the first workout that actually feels like it’s bringing my body back into alignment rather than making things worse.
2. Pain-Free Progress – Instead of leaving workouts feeling beat up, I feel stronger and more stable. Not to say they are not challenging, because they are! I sweat my a$$ off!

The facility is very chill and welcoming, so no need to feel intimidated going in. If you’ve struggled with workouts that don’t feel right for your body, this is the place to go!

I have done traditional lifting majority of my life and would always get minor back injuries. I was introduced to Alex at functional patterns. I have been attending sessions twice a week for 6 months and feel unbelievably better. Would highly recommend if you are looking to enhance your body movements for long term health.

I’ve been training for 30 years, but I had a lot of imbalances and had hit a plateau in my progress. I only did five sessions at Functional Patterns Santa Monica because I was moving out of the country, but even in that short time, the results were mind-blowing.

Adam is an incredible coach, extremely professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely nice. He immediately identified my imbalances, and we worked on them with precision. After just a few sessions, my posture transformed, my neck pain disappeared, my shoulder mobility improved dramatically, and even my running form completely changed. I feel free in my body again!

This is a total game-changer in training. I can’t recommend Functional Patterns enough, it will transform your body and your life!

I can’t recommend Functional Patterns enough! I first came here seeking relief from back pain, and later returned after ankle surgery to address all the imbalances that came from being off my foot for months. I trained with Adam Klecheski, and his depth of knowledge about the body is incredible.

The concepts behind Functional Patterns can be complex, but Adam broke everything down in a way that made sense. I didn’t just go through the motions—I actually understood why we were doing each exercise and how they were helping me move and feel better. The attention to detail, the personalized approach, and the results I’ve seen make this place truly stand out. If you’re serious about long-term health and performance, this is the place to go!

I discovered Functional Patters on instagram and thought it was very interesting but as a person who loves to learn I was open to trying this out. I worked with Alex at FP Santa Monica and honestly it changed me from day 1. He was so knowledgeable and real about the issues that I was facing with traditional work out methods. There is still a long way to go but I have changed the way I see how workouts are supposed to be done. I appreciate him and the whole team there as they have so much energy and enthusiasm into helping prove to others it works!

I have been working with Adam Klecheski at FP Santa Monica for almost 4 months and it’s changed so much about how I understand movement and I feel so much more empowered in my body. Adam is an excellent facilitator and he holds a warm and nonjudgmental space for our sessions. His understanding of the body is top notch and his ability to listen to what I’m saying and adapt our sessions to what my body needs live time is so refreshing and a testament to his skill. There is no cookie cutter approach happening here, it feels very individualized to my body. The space is also welcoming, clean, and friendly. Highly recommend checking it out.

Joe Grecco, is the consummate professional , and practitioner. He has resolved my back and knee pain, and unhesitatingly my first referral for anyone needing an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan for back pain . Cannot thank him enough

I first came in with neck pain, sciatica, and tight pecs.

2 years later, I'm stronger, fitter, and more pain-free than ever thanks to Alex at FP Santa Monica.

Highly professional, very knowledgeable, and genuinely care about clients' well being.

No other system heals, strengthens, and makes you fit all together how FP does.

Other fitness systems don't compare to Functional Patterns.
Do FP. You'll be blown away.
