Great gym, super clean, machines run smooth and perfect, nice boxing section, ONLY THING which to Me personally is a major issue, is the temperature. Im getting down on the boxing bags putting in work, every minute rest between rounds, im drenched in sweat, you will get cold really quick, the ac is blasting in there, definitely below 70. It gets cold because the girl in the front desk is always wearing a sweater so harder to sweat thats my only complaint. Tried it out for the day but I think its also pretty pricey
Was told on the phone to come check out the gym. When I got there they said I needed to come back tomorrow. Apparently only certain employees can show you the gym. From what I could see it looked very nice. Kind of upset that I drove down for nothing.
World-class gym
$200 cancellation fee when I had to move.
Amazing workout experience. Outstanding trainers. Cleanliness and safety protocols all in place
Nice big gym with amenities.
Best place in town for serious boxing training!
This facility is awesome and the staff super friendly. We stopped by during a scavenger hunt (as one of the fitness challenges) and participated in a circuit workout. Left the place feeling good.
Great atmosphere and awesome trainers. Came in for a quick workout and left dripping sweat. Will definitely come back. The music they play is a plus!
State of the art facilities with accommodating and knowledgeable staff. This was my first time here, but I’ll definitely be back. A great local gym.
Awesome Gym love this place and the staff are like my friends now. I love how comfortable they make it for all of us its like being part of a family. Always clean, well maintained equipment, lots of space and the manager does a great job. Simply great!
Loved the gym while I went there. Great classes and decent workout equipment. The biggest downfall of the gym is the the cancelation process. I canceled my membership after being there for 2+ years and all was well until I started getting emails and phone calls from their billing department saying I owed my months dues. Come to find out that when I canceled my membership, they put my account on hold instead. I called their billing company and was told the account had been taken off of the temp hold and now I owed money and the only way to resolve this was to call Oathletik and talk to a manager. I called for 4 days straight asking to talk to a manager about the situation and was told I would receive a phone call back shortly. This never happened and I would have to call again the next day. Finally I told the front desk that I had heard the same line over and over again and it was getting old. After about a business weeks time, I had yet to hear from anyone. The only reason I think my membership has been canceled is because the app is asking me to log in. Outside of that, I haven’t received any sort of confirmation.Great gym but awful management. Would be nice to have a clean break from the gym but I have no idea if my membership is truly canceled as the manager is always too busy and will “get back to me.”
This gym has a lot of great equipment. The people were very helpful. The workout was nice and challenging.
O Athletik is a fantastic gym with great personal trainers and staff. There is one weed that ruins the flowers, we’ll call her Fit Diva, or just “M”. She’s a personal trainer that is loved by some and loathed by others. I’ve reached my limit with her. When her client was running with a sled he let us know he was coming. We didn’t see or hear him, so the 3 of us quickly moved aside. She said, “There’s no need to tell them you’re coming. They’ll move when they see you or get run over. They know what this area is for”. There’s something called “gym etiquette” and she needs to get some. I brought a friend here as a my guest, she also had her run-in with M in the restroom. She asked you a simple question about training at the gym, and you acted like she didn’t exist.M, you’re a personal trainer at O Athletik. That is your place of employment. Imagine if we walked into our offices with your same bad attitude. Learn gym etiquette, and keep the negative talking to a minimum.
I stopped in gym for a workout because I live in the Heights. The trainers are arrogant and rude. In addition, the resistance training equipment is minimal. They only cater to professional sports enthusiasts. Lifetime and 24hr Fitness are better than this place.
Ive only been here once, take this review with a grain of salt.This place has absolutely everything you need from a gym. It even has a 30ft hill, a boxing ring, an octagon, mat area for grappling, a sandbox, and various classes.Staff was courteous and very helpful. The only drawback to this gym is the price. I believe its $125/month which includes access to all the classes and equipment. Honestly, the price isnt that bad considering everything thats included.
By far the best gym in Houston. Perfectly designed for the up and coming athlete, the professional training for offseason, the former athlete or the average person looking for a full body reformation. As a former athlete I can honestly say Ive never seen a facility this comprehensive since my college days. The trainers are professional and well credentialed. Certainly a hidden gem in the city of Houston. Well done AP.
I stopped by to check it out because they were suppose to be part of a Houston challenge but opt out last minute. Very clean and nice employees. I stayed seeing I was already there and got a tour and a chase to work out. They have a lot of class options, indoor soccer, batting area and volleyball out back. It is very pricey... $200/per month, $150 with six month contract and $125 with yr contract.
** UPDATE as of 9/23/16 ** I emailed twice to try and cancel my membership and got no response, so I called the gym this afternoon to see how to cancel. I spoke with the manager, Ben, initially trying to avoid going into the specifics of my unhappiness and just cancel the membership. He asked for details and I went through the entire story, adding that I didnt find it worth my time to be a member of a gym thats not really much of a gym -- only 3 stair climbers, like 6 treadmills, terrible parking. He took offense and became combative, and tried to fight with me over the phone about the gym quality, claiming I was being offensive. A final nail in the coffin for that place, as far as Im concerned. I strongly urge you to consider joining a different gym before this place. Bad management, mediocre facilities unless you want to spend your time on an artificial soccer field, and an outrageous $200 cancellation fee despite a years worth of *documented* disappointments and shortcomings.Ive technically been a member of this gym for over a year. I signed up in 2015 and was told told over the course of several months that the gym was about to open -- obviously that wasnt the case. I personally signed up because I was looking for a more affordable option for barre classes; when the schedule was posted around opening, there were very few barre classes offered. I followed up on that and was told -- by an instructor, someone at the front desk, AND a manager -- that more would be added, and at working-friendly times rather than, for example, 9:30 am.I was medically unable to exercise for a couple months but now that Ive been cleared I went to register for barre classes again, but 1) you cant register for a class more than 5 days in advance which is problematic when Im trying to plan a week, and 2) the barre classes disappeared from the schedule. Ive been told theyll be added back but have no further information around their timing/days/etc.Overall Im at the point where I wish Id gone with my gut when I was told it was a year-long contract or nothing and never signed up because it has NOT been worth the time, money, or aggravation of being a member.
Been a member since they opened. Love the fact they have things to keep you interested, different type of classes etc. Valet parking is a nice touch. Highly recommend O!
Great gym & overall workout experience. Kitchen, coffee shop, yoga, sauna, pool, martial arts, sand box and 45° vertical hill as well as latest free weight machines. O athletik is a movement just happy to say I jumped on board early.
Been recently coming to this gym for a month, love the vibe of the whole gym and diversity it brings to how you could possibly work out there, price point is debatable, but seems fair with the amount of options this gym includes, over all other gyms in Houston.
Great gym! Love the turf. Awesome trainers.
Great stuff! Worked up a sweat! Orange you glad I didn’t say banana!
This is a great gym! it has everything you need and the staff is great. Its always clean and the equipment are quality.
Cancelled membership in December after fulfilling my one-year contract. O Athletik continues to charge me $113 each month. Whenever I call they acknowledge the mistake, but then claim the manager isnt around to help me. They claim to be working on it and claim to get back to me and this never happens. I have emailed their cancellation department and their manager directly and have not had a single response. This is either gross incompetence or fraud. I see from the other Google reviews that I am not the only one with this problem. Youve been warned.
Amazing place for company team building activities! Fantastic facility. So clean, everyone was so helpful and professional.
Really modern facility with state of the art equipment and a great staff. The Jiu Jitsu program is really top notch, Ive trained all over the country and this is one of the elite programs I have come across
Excellent gym! Great layout, classes and even better staff!
I stopped in gym for workout the day before quarantine. The trainers are arrogant and rude specially the instructor Dede. She has a dark heart and she is the devil.Please use 24 hr fitness instead. I can not tolerate this place.
We joined for a workout for the Houston Scavenger Hunt. The workout was awesome!!! Thank you for having us!
Amazing gym. Pretty much anything you could want. Come train Jiu Jitsu!
Nice friendly place where I dont have to worry about somebody dropping weights on my foot or a bunch of horn dogs. I was surprised after the first week they were opened when they said they were going to add more classes as they already have a ton - friendly boot camps, MMA, boxing, kickboxing, cross fit, etc.
Ive been working out here for a year and this place is awesome. Great facility, great people, great classes, and overall great experience.
The atmosphere is just AWESOME! I look forward to coming back...Had a Great workout with Peace.
This place is amazing. This is the best gym for MMA soccer working out and just overall conditioning.
For 3 months I have been attempting to cancel my membership. I have been calling since early January in which each time I called up until March 6th I was told by a staff member that there was nothing they could do that I would need to speak to a manager and that they would have the manager call me back. Not once did I receive a call back so on March 6th I called to speak with a manager because on that date I was informed I needed to fill out a cancellation form. This was the first time I had ever been informed by anyone about this form. I requested to speak to the manager as I was told that there was nothing I could do about my previous attempts. I then spoke to Bryan who then told me that I would be refunded for the recent charge of $113.66 within 3 days. He stated I would be only refunded for one month since the cancellation process is 30 days and due to my attempt in January not being held through and as well as no one on the staff knowing that a cancellation form was required. Fast forward to today March 14th and a refund has still not been given...also, I called again to speak with the manager and I find out that I still have not had my account cancelled. Again I was told that the manager, Bryan will call and speak with me again... Im still awaiting the call... I really enjoyed this gym when I was there but have a hard time recommending it as no one on staff that I have interacted with does what they have stated they will do.
Hill and sand volleyball court were the best parts (besides the free weight area.
Boxing program is legit with a well respected boxing coach, Coach Johnson. Boxing for fitness is a great way to break up your workout!
Such a great place to work out! Can not wait to come back again ☺️
Trainers are very friendly & knowledgeable top of the line equipment💪😉
It has everything one would look for all under one roof. Indoor soccer, hot yoga, beach volleyball, not to mention coffee and smoothie bar. Im a fan.
Intense variety of exercise classes that leave me sore every time. I also love the boxing, yoga, and volleyball league!
Not at all!!! Wish I could give no stars. Gym has been open for a couple of months (some areas showers, coffee/shake bar are still under construction) I happen to stop by the other day wo workout. There is an Asian or Pacific Islander that works there and immediately was a complete jerk. He advised I leave the gym becasue the gym was closed. Yes, he said the whole gym was closed. Mind you I asked there are clients (a friend working out at that moment) here as well and I have paid my fee. He advised that it wasnt true. He did not care and moved in closer to me as to intimidate me to remove myself from the place. Horrible, horrible, horrible! Once I find out his name I will gladly post it so the company and people who go there be aware of this little guy.
This gym feels intimidating at first, but the staff are welcoming and knowledgeable. My daughter has a wonderful coach that is enhancing her natural ability.
Best Gym Ever - Love the trainers, indoor soccer field, the hill, we moved and this is one of the places I miss the most.
The womens sauna has been broken for going on 3 MONTHS (4 months now - 11/20/17) Prior to that it was up for about two weeks after being down for another month and a half. Myself and others have complained about how unreasonable this is almost every time we visit the gym and every time we are told the guy is coming to fix it tomorrow. Apparently he is not. The purpose of paying a $100 plus membership is for the amenities. The amenities are not being provided, and without them the membership price is not worth it. 3 months is not an acceptable amount of time for the sauna to be down. If it continues to be unusable the price of a womens membership should be lowered, as we are not receiving the same amenities as other members. This is ridiculous and half your members are being taken advantage of.
Well build faculty, got some unique touches to the gym !! Friendly staff and excellent management and owner !!! Definitely a go
Great group workout and clean facility!
Great facility with nice equipment, however with the price of this gym being 4x as much as any other gym, I was hoping for trainers that were a bit more professional.
Amazing gym- its like a playground for grown-ups.
Excellent facility everyone should make this there choice of gym
Came in for a class trial and was assaulted by the General Manager who couldnt wait to tell me what his job title was because I was unaware of their new waiver form. First impressions matter so wont be going signing up here.
Ourstanding gym! James Cooper is one of the best there is!
March 2016. I joined O Athletik and began this week. I couldnt be happier. The current pricing is: $25 to join and then about $105 a month. Expensive for me, yes, as I have a lifetime fixed price 24 Hour Fitness membership for $100 per year. But the experience is night and day. O Athletik is like one of those all inclusive vacations. The focus here is on interesting classes to keep one motivated . And there are a number of classes each day. I have thoroughly enjoyed every one that I have taken and I now look forward to exercising again. But on the days that I dont want a class, they have an excellent selection of free weights and Free Motion machines, a brand that happens to be one of my favorites. So, although I am still in the honeymoon phase of my membership, I can give it a big thumbs up recommendation. Other pluses, the music is kept to a reasonable level so it doesnt hurt your ears or cause hearing damage; the facilities are immaculate/clean, which has not been my experience at other gyms; the members using the facilities seem to be really committed to cleaning up after themselves, that is, putting the weights back, etc. ; every staff member and teacher whom I have met is wonderful. Especially recommend the Gassed Cardio, the GRE Fit and the Triple A Fit, as well as the yoga classes. As a member, you go into the website, find the schedule for the week and register for the classes that you will be attending. Its really easy. And currently, I havent had any problems with getting into any class that I was interested in.Be wary of a negative review, here in Google for O Athletik.A person with the initials A.G.G. wrote an incredibly negative review of O Athletik. I checked and this person has only written two reviews. He made such comments as:Wish I could give no stars. Gym has been open for a couple of months (some areas showers, coffee/shake bar are still under construction) I happen to stop by the other day workout. There is an Asian or Pacific Islander that works there and immediately was a complete jerk. He advised I leave the gym because the gym was closed. Yes, he said the whole gym was closed. Mind you I asked there are clients (a friend working out at that moment) here as well and I have paid my fee. He advised that it wasnt true. He did not care and moved in closer to me as to intimidate me to remove myself from the place. Horrible, horrible, horrible! Once I find out his name I will gladly post it so the company and people who go there be aware of this little The problem is...A.G.G. has painted himself into a corner with a bogus review. BECAUSE, O Athletik was not even open yet. They were still in construction as of March 2016. So there is no way that the things that he states happened could have happened.
Very nice gym in Heights part of Houston.
Tough workout, great studio!
This place is like nothing Ive ever seen. It has everything and more.
Best place to train or workout
