It didn’t take long for me to feel the energy in this Austin location, but I have to say I left a bit disappointed after my last visit. The gym equipment is generally in good shape, and I appreciate the variety available, but I wish they would extend the hours back to 11 pm like they used to. Sometimes my schedule just doesn’t line up with earlier hours, you know? Overall, it's a solid place to improve my fitness when I can find the time.

When I first walked into the facility, I was excited about the swimming lessons, especially for my kids. They were eager to learn, and I thought enrolling them would be a fun experience. However, my enthusiasm quickly faded due to the communication issues surrounding the swim lesson schedules. I found myself often confused about the timings, which seemed to change frequently without notice. It felt like I had to chase down information to keep everything straight. Additionally, during one of my inquiries, the staff member I spoke to was rather rude, which was not what I expected. I understand that everyone has tough days, but a little patience and kindness go a long way, especially in a community-oriented place. On a brighter note, the jacuzzi was a soothing escape after my frustrations, and it was nice to unwind there, but it didn’t quite make up for the challenging experience. I really think they need to enhance their communication about swim lesson schedules for parents like me who want to make the best choices for our kids' activities.

I’ve always loved fitness classes, but this place truly exceeded my expectations! I started attending their group fitness sessions weekly, and I can't express how much they've helped me improve my overall fitness. The variety of classes means I always have something new to look forward to, from energizing cardio to strength training that I can customize to my level. Each instructor brings their own flair, making it fun and engaging every time. I particularly appreciate how friendly and supportive the staff are—they really make you feel like part of a community. If you're looking to hit your fitness goals in a welcoming environment, this is definitely the spot!
