Fantastic experience: Love this gym! From yoga and cold plunge to weight lifting and Booty Camp, there's a class for you. I joined this gym because of the yoga and open air vibes***. I stayed for the small class sizes and personal attention with nutrition support just an email away. ***I prefer no A/C for a workout space, even in the summer :)

Fantastic experience: The gym from the outside does not look like anything special. Just a warehouse but once inside Holy Crap what a Shangri-La of facilities. Everything needed with great coaches. The rehab room or recovery room with cold lounge is awesome. If you have not cold plunged before it is the perfect addition after a workout. East Austin Athletic club staff was perfect and very helpful.

Thank you Francis! It was great having you at the club on Saturday!

Fantastic experience: Been going to the EEAC for about a year and half now and It’s been one of the best decisions I have made. The trainers here are just all around great people, talented, and kind. The friends I have made here feel like family. No matter where you are in your fitness journey, you will feel at home here. Everyone is free from judgement and super supportive. I can’t recommend this gym enough!

Fantastic experience: I love coming here! I needed to get back into shape after having a baby, and this gym has been a savior! The class times are super convenient and there’s a good variety of strength training and conditioning in every workout. I have a personal training session once a week with Meg who is awesome, and the rest of the week I attend the classes. It’s so much fun, everyone is so nice and welcoming, the coaches are great, and it’s a really great gym set up too! Plenty of equipment and space. You’ll love it!

Fantastic experience: Class with Jed is awesome! Knowledgeable, encouraging and knows when to provide a push/progression/modification to personalize your workout. Really enjoying classes with him.

East Austin Athletic Club

Thank you for the love and support Sarah! We LOVE having you as a member!

Mason Chan 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym with great coaches. The classes are group style and they tell you what to do so you don't really have to think. Every week seems like a different workout so my body never feels used to the stimulus. Definitely worth a try if you are curious.

East Austin Athletic Club

Thank you for the love and support Mason! We LOVE having you as a member of our community!

Rachel Graham 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: The coaches at EAAC are so great. If you don't quite understand a movement, you can always ask without a worry, they will explain it. They are passionate about fitness and take teaching the classes seriously. There are a bunch of options to choose from class wise too - whether you want more of a HIIT workout, or focusing more on traditional lifts. I've been coming to this gym for about 9 months now, and the way I've been able to gain muscle, loose weight and lift more has been incredible! Whether you are new to lifting, never have lifted, or are experienced... the vibe is encouraging and you'll fit in just fine. So, just come if you are on the fence and you'll be hooked!

East Austin Athletic Club

Youre the best Rachel! We LOVE having you as a member! You're always brightening everyones day!

Fantastic experience: Great gym and staff!

Tom Barr 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I love the group workout setting lead by an instructor. The instructors are motivating and working with peers pushes me to workout harder, and not skip workouts! The instructors are also very helpful with your form, and are accommodating with physical limitations. It's like having a personal trainer each session without the high cost.

Erica Pocs 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: EAAC is the best! Been getting a great workout here since November 2022. I like the consistency of scheduled classes which always start the morning right. Very good value $ wise. Easy to get to, and of course - the coaches, who always bring the **best energy**. Joey is one of the newer coaches and he's so great! Always remembers everyone's name and keeps up with my personal tennis goals too. Shelby rules as well. We love the Ascend classes. Cool, chill crowd. Pretty good tunes. Couldn't imagine living without this excellent east side institution. Xoxo.

Jenna Luu 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend this place enough! Been going here since December 2021 and have loved it ever since. All the coaches here are great and the classes are challenging enough for you to get a good sweat in and feel good. ❤️‍

Andy Eliscu 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Came for the workout and stayed for the community. Lots of great options for workouts and top notch coaches all around. Also plenty of fun events and a welcoming atmosphere. Coach Chris made a huge impact for me. He’s a great teacher and it’s obvious he cares a lot about his clients.

Samantha Monson 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I've been working out with Shelby for the last 5 months and have loved every class. Not only am I gaining muscle, losing weight and feeling healthier, I'm having fun doing it! I highly recommend trying the gym out if you're looking for a community to support you on your health journey.

Meredith Pounds 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym, I recommend. Coach Shelby Hart - best ever. Do it.

Valeria Rodriguez 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Joining the EAAC community has been one of the most rewarding decisions i’ve made! I joined after coach Shelby learned more about my fitness goals and being so new in this space I have felt nothing but comfort and welcome!

Casey Richard 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Coach Shelby is the GOAT!!! If you work out with Shelby, you can expect a coach who motivates, empowers, and challenges you - all while keeping the energy HIGH and FUN! She places emphasis on showing up for yourself and in return, she is your #1 supporter. I truly look forward to every workout with Coach Shelby and always leave EAAC ready to take on the rest of the day!

Suzanne Carroll 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I was drawn into EAAC by Coach Shelby. She created a personalized training program for me to meet my goals of increasing strength and avoiding injury of my bad back and knees. Over the past six months we train twice a week and I've gained significant strength and no injuries. On top of that, we have the best time each session - chatting about life and joking around while getting in a great workout every time. The gym itself is fantastic, I love the open layout, high energy classes, and everyone working out there. When the weather is nice, I bring my dog and she loves the fenced in dog area out back. Tons of members give her pets and she just loves the attention. My pup and I look forward to every workout. I can genuinely say Coach Shelby and EAAC have improved my fitness and weekday morning.

Sophie Rae Levy 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Coach Shelby is the best- I had never been to a weight lifting gym before this and Shelby made me feel totally comfortable and taught me all the basics in order to feel confident. She is not judgmental and is great with both super competitive AND non-competitive people alike, making her the ideal coach for a small group setting!!! She keeps you safe in exercises but isn’t super dogmatic about form- as long as we’re safe, she doesn’t pressure us to do it a “right” way. Overall makes working out so much fun and accessible. I also love this gym because they offer cold towels complimentary and have free yoga every month!!

Sam Levin 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Short Story: The gym facilities, coaches, and community are all excellent! EAAC has been an integral part of my time in Austin and recommend it to everyone! Long Story: After an injury, my PT said I need to incorporate more strength training. I didn’t have any strength training experience, but the coaches at EAAC were helpful, patient, and knowledgeable. Since joining, I've 100% recovered from my injury, gained >10lbs of muscle (according to some recent scans), and made great friends - all thanks to EAAC and the coaches. I love that they have a variety of classes from recovery yoga to intense CrossFit. I've also used their personal training sessions too which have helped me with specific goals outside of the classes. Their app helps me schedule classes and keeps me accountable, and if all that is not enough they also host member socials which are a lot of fun! Lastly, a special shoutouts to the coaches: Megan who helped onboard me and runs some of the best classes, Jessie who has helped perfect my form to prevent injury, Kaya and Shelby who run my go-to classes and always have fantastic energy, and Chris who continuously pushes me in his class.

Dani Mourtada 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Love this gym and the community so much! Been going here for 2 years and plan to for many more. Between the coaches and community and workouts you’re not only coming to just workout but also meet great people who share the same passion. Coach Mars is great for breaking down boxing/kickboxing for all levels and makes it fun for everyone while getting an incredible workout. There aren’t any other gyms like this in ATX!

Stephen Tortora 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: When I moved to Austin I started training at Equinox and then CrossFit Central and I can say EAAC is hands down the best programming I’ve experienced. They’ve got an awesome facility and incredible coaches! Shout out to coach Meg who always brings the energy in class and took the time to walk me through a personal nutrition plan!

East Austin Athletic Club

Thank you, Stephen! We are so glad you have been enjoying the programming and the coaches!

Delaney Sullivan 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Always been a gym hopper but no more! Been at EAAC for 1.5years now. The community and the different style of classes keeps me engaged. I love all the classes but shout out to Coach Chris and his Lift Hungry small group. Its been 6 weeks and I've already improved my form, athleticism and strength.

East Austin Athletic Club

Thank you, Delaney! We are so happy to have you as part of our community and are glad you have been enjoying Chris' barbell club.

Matthew Mahan 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: If your looking for the best boxing coach in Austin hit up Mars Hall… He will bring the best out of you.

East Austin Athletic Club

Thank you, Matthew! We appreciate your positive feedback and agree that Mars is incredible!

Abbie Bergan 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve only been a member at EAAC for about 2 months now, but I can’t imagine ever wanting to join another gym in Austin! They are huge on building community and making everyone feel welcome and comfortable- regardless of your skill level. The coaches are extremely motivating and passionate about what they do. I’ve been taking classes consistently with Brendon, Shelby, Jesse and Kaya - I can’t say enough good things about all of them. In the past I usually viewed working out as a chore and something I just needed to get done, but now I am genuinely excited for class because I truly enjoy the workout and all the amazing people I’ve gotten to know! If you are hesitant about trying out EAAC, don’t be! You won’t regret it!

East Austin Athletic Club

Hi Abbie! Thank you so much for your kind words, we are glad you are part of our community!

Rachel Rubin 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I've been a member at East Austin Athletic Club for almost two years and I plan to be there for many years to come. The magic of this gym is the community, which is cultivated by having awesome coaches and really great members. Everyone is welcoming and kind, and this has always been consistent. I also really enjoy the variety of programming - you can align your class choices to fit your personal fitness goals or just how you're feeling that day, or both! And there are plenty of options across mornings and afternoons to accommodate your schedule. Let's talk about coaches...I love all of them! :) Some shout-outs: Coach Shelby: Master of class organization and timing, with deep knowledge of every movement. She always brings a smile and fun stories about the latest Netflix show or pop culture current events. She makes it a point to talk to all of us during class and it makes the class go by so fast! Coach Joey: Even though Joey is newer to the gym, he made sure to immediately learn all of our names and he makes it very clear how much he cares about all of us as he leads us through the workout. Coach Chris: Chris was my first coach at EAAC and he's incredibly knowledgeable about power lifting. He writes really balanced (and challenging) programming for the Ascend classes. My favorite thing about Chris is that he knows what you're capable of and he'll challenge you to push yourself. Coach Jesse: Jesse is fun to be around and always has me laughing. He has a ton of experience with functional movement and mobility, so his stretch sessions before and after class are my favorite. Coach Megan: Don't skip Saturday community workouts with Coach Meg! She is an expert at commanding the room and always describes each movement in a way that makes it easy to understand and safe to execute. Coach Kaya: Kaya is so nice and compassionate. She'll always check in on you during the workout to make sure you feel comfortable with the movement and that you're getting what you need out of your workout. Coach Brendon: Brendon is both a coach and part of the EAAC leadership team and he does a great job balancing both. His Armageddon classes are challenging but super effective (insert flex emoji here). Yoga instructors: Jenna and Andrea are both awesome. I always feel like I am treating myself when I have the chance to do recovery yoga with either of them. If you've made it to the bottom of this novel, congratulations! As you can see, I highly recommend EAAC to any and everyone!

East Austin Athletic Club

Gabrielle Bazemore 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I recently moved to Austin and was looking for a gym to settle into. After my first class at EAAC I knew it was the perfect fit! The variety in classes & exercises performed each day keeps going to the gym entertaining. Coach Meg in particular has taught me so much about form and lifting in general. I'd highly recommend EAAC to anyone who is new to the gym or even highly experienced! 10/10

East Austin Athletic Club

Thank you, Gabrielle! We are glad you found us and are enjoying your time here! Completely agreed, Meg is fantastic!

Trent Warner 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Was looking for a great gym and ended up finding an incredible community! There's certainly closer gyms to me, but I'd gladly travel from South Austin to be a part of this awesome community. I've made gains, great friends, and have a renewed appreciation around fitness. If you're on the fence about joining -- go to a community event, sign up for one of the free classes, meet the coaches. Just go for it. You won't be disappointed.

East Austin Athletic Club

Hi Trent! Thank you for the positive feedback. We are so glad we are worth the drive! We agree, the community events are the way to go!

Savannah Yarish 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I tried probably over 25 different gyms when I moved here to Austin, EACC being one of them…and it’s the one I stuck with after all of those gyms…and that says so much in itself. The workouts are great and so are the coaches!

East Austin Athletic Club

Thank you, Savannah! We are so glad we made the cut and appreciate your positive feedback!

Caitlin Sullivan 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I've been a EAAC member for 3 years and they've built a great and welcoming community. There's not a lot of gyms in East ATX, especially with a large selection of class times and all types of classes (HIIT, lift8ng, yoga, kickboxing) so there is something for everyone! There's no central ac or heating though, so peak summer and winter weather can be tough.

East Austin Athletic Club

Thank you, Caitlin! We are glad you enjoy the community, we definitely think it is the best!

Kacie Duffy 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Thank you EAAC for getting my butt back into shape!! I joined a few months ago and loving how many different types of classes they offer. They have something for every strength level (my fav is Ignite) and the gym is super spacious and clean. I always leave each class dripping in sweat and energized for the day! I love all of the instructors but some of my favs have to be Shelby, Joey and Kaya. I also love their community workouts on Saturdays because I get to bring my husband (for free!) and hang with my fav workout buddy Leonard (see pic). Highly recommend EAAC.

East Austin Athletic Club

Hi Kacie! Thank you so much for your kind review! Ignite is definitely THE way to get sweaty and energized for the day. Leonard is basically our official mascot now!

Paige Warmus 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I LOVE EAAC!! The coaches are incredible, classes are challenging and constantly changing to keep you interested, and the people are super kind.

East Austin Athletic Club

Hi Paige, thank you so much for your feedback! We are so glad you are enjoying the classes and community!

East Austin Athletic Club

Thank you, Molly! We are so glad you are enjoying our programming and coaches!

Madison Cottingham 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: As a long-time member at a nearby "big-brand" fitness center. I've spent a lot of time working out in East Austin over the years. When my favorite coach decided to shift gears and begin operating and programming EAAC and take on personal training clients I hopped right over. Brendon Fellows is THAT GUY that motivates you to be your best self, work hard, focus on long-term goals and seek continuous improvement, which is exactly what he's done at EAAC. For nearly 3 years I had weekly personal training with Brendon and got to see how much the EAAC facility and community has grown week-by-week. Fitness is a cornerstone of the "Daily Life as an Austinite" with a competitive market for the healthy living consumer. What sets EAAC apart is the consistency in their member experience (someone WILL say hello to you, and more than likely they even know your name), the programming (classes are diverse, challenging, but NOT intimidating because there is a solid emphasis on proper form and knowing your body) and an incredible value for the staff and range of equipment. After doing the 1:1 thing for a few years I've spent the past 4 months as part of a small group training program at EAAC which makes me love the gym even more - I get to spend 3 mornings a week with hardworking people at a place that cares about me. Thank you Brendon and EAAC!

Meg Trollan McEachern 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This review has been a long time coming…. I began coming to EAAC shortly after moving to Austin 2 years ago, and I can’t begin to express how big of an impact this gym has made on my life here. This gym is the perfect balance between being a gritty gym with hard workouts and a community of people who are honest and have integrity. Their trainers are welcoming, fun, and care a lot about form and recovery- something that in my experience is not always the case in weightlifting gyms. I had to take FMLA for a mental health break during the months of April & May this year and I can honestly say that the trainers and the community at EAAC helped to save my life. Every class I have attended I have been met with a smiling face (particularly my favorite coaches are Jesse and Shelby!) and during that hard time I could count on their consistent kindness to help pull me through to the other side. All the mushiness aside….join this gym!! I have never seen a gym rat here and the prices are unbeatable. love EAAC!!!

East Austin Athletic Club

Hi Meg! Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review. We are so glad we have been able to make a difference and that you are part of our community. We love you too!!

Ricky Thompson 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Love my gym! Jesse and Shelby are amazing teachers and encouragers even on days when I am embarrassingly slow. As a runner I used to be super intimidated by weight lifting but these people have made me feel welcome to it and I am happy every time I leave a class.

Hi Ricky! Thank you for the positive feedback! We are so glad you are enjoying your training here.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member for over a year now. The staff and other members are welcoming and friendly. The workouts aren’t boring (even during de-load weeks). The gym holds regular events to connect with the greater community. The variety of classes offered has something for everyone, often multiple somethings.

East Austin Athletic Club

Govanna Mata 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member at EAAC for two years now and I cannot imagine ever leaving it. The community is friendly, respectful, and accommodating. Whether you want to show up to make workout buddies or just get a killer workout in, EAAC has got you covered. Strike club(boxing/kickboxing)is currently my favorite. Coach Mars knows how to modify the classes for all levels. With his coaching, you’ll catch on pretty quickly. Aside from a variety workouts, this gym hosts lots of fitness/community events. I love knowing I can count on them to not only challenge my fitness goals but also introduce me to the newest and latest. Check out all the events and classes on their Instagram. 10/10 highly recommended.

Nick Arroyo 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Moved to Austin a few months ago and EAAC has single handedly become my favorite part of the city. Such a welcoming and fun community, the classes are challenging but allow you to go at your own pace if needed. Regardless of your fitness level, you’ll feel welcomed and encouraged at this gym. I was never a morning gym person until I started working out here. 6:30 gang!

Hi Nick! We are so glad you are enjoying your time at EAAC. We are proudly transforming everyone into morning people!

Andrea Blanco 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love EAAC!! from the minute i joined everyone at the gym was so warm and welcoming - not just coaches and staff but other clients too! I was interested in taking some small group training and the front desk staff directed me to Shelby! I joined her 8 week small group training and absolutely loved it. I loved the support and motivation that Shelby gave us every training session even though it was 6am! I saw really great results from the 8 weeks not just in my increased strength but also with her nutrition support outside of the gym. You can tell she really cares about her clients progress by consistently checking on how we’re feeling. I hope to join her next cycle because I loved it so much :) All the other coaches i’ve had for physique classes have also been absolutely amazing: Brendon, Jesse and Kaya. I’m very new to training and I’ve never felt so at home and non-intimidated at a gym before!

East Austin Athletic Club

Hi Andrea! We are so glad you have been enjoying our classes as well as Shelby's small group. Thank you so much for your kind feedback!

On top of all of that, they do a better job at community than i have seen at almost any gym. Great work EACC!! proud to be part of this community

Clayton Cromer 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Best combo of gym, classes and community in Austin. After wasting a lot of time and money trying out other gyms in town (LifeTime, Equinox) I found EEAC. If you’re looking for a gym with a great variety of classes (Strength, HIIT, Olympic) at a ton of available times throughout the day, EEAC has it. Best part is you are free to use the gym even if you’re not taking a class and they have all the equipment you need (i.e. tons of squat racks, plates and dumbbells up to 100+). Coaches and other member are awesome and easy to talk to. They also host regular community events at local bars, Austin FC games and other places around town so great way to socialize and make friends, especially if you’re new to Austin. I’ve been a member for 8 months now and loved every minute.

East Austin Athletic Club

Thank you, Clayton! We are so glad you have enjoyed your time at EAAC as well as our member social events. Thank you for being part of our EAAC community!

Fantastic experience: i was able to cultivate such a warm and living community at this gym while in Austin. Not only do they have crossfit like classes, but they also offer an amazing boxing and kickboxing area for all levels. I was able to gain a new skill that I really enjoy. Specifically, Coach Jacob really molded me into a very skilled kickboxer! My new coaches in Florida are very impressed with my skills and I owe it to Jacob! Go check out the gym <3

East Austin Athletic Club

Thank you for your incredible feedback Athenia! WE MISS YOU!!

Jazel Sampang 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I love EAAC! I just started going and joined the Strike Club. I know Coach Mars from other gyms and he’s the reason I started going here. I love that EAAC has a beautiful facility and the cold eucalyptus towels. One thing I love about the Strike club here is that they have the mitts/pads to do work with partner drills. I haven’t gotten that at many other gyms! Partner drills really help my technique improve. Mars is one of my favorite coaches of all time. When I started boxing, I was pretty unsure and insecure about my stamina and technique. Mars was so reassuring and encouraging and it helped me show up for myself more. I’ve seen a lot of change in my technique, mindset, body, and aerobic endurance.

East Austin Athletic Club

Hi Jazel! We are so glad you have been enjoying your time here at EAAC with Mars. Thank you for your kind feedback!

Drew Kyler 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Over the past year, East Austin Athletic Club has been an integral part of my life, and to describe it as merely ‘extraordinary’ would not do it justice. The first thing that truly stands out when you step into EAAC is the impeccably curated classes. The programming feels like a masterclass in fitness. These workouts don’t just challenge the body—they also engage the mind, ensuring that every member is equipped with the knowledge and skills to sustain a long-term fitness journey. It’s not just about the intensity; it’s about the sustainability and the growth mindset that they instill in each of us. Now, let’s talk about the real stars of the show - the coaches. Their dedication, expertise, and genuine care for every individual are unparalleled. They are not just trainers; they are mentors, cheerleaders, and sometimes, the friend you didn’t know you needed. Their knack for pushing boundaries while ensuring that everyone feels safe and supported is truly commendable. With their guidance, I’ve discovered strengths I never knew I possessed. Beyond the top-notch training and incredible coaches, what truly elevates the experience at EAAC is the thriving community. Here, fitness goes beyond the physical. The camaraderie, the shared challenges, the collective triumphs—it all contributes to a profound sense of belonging. Each day brings with it the promise of not just a great workout but also moments of connection, encouragement, and fun. To anyone considering a fitness journey, I’d say look no further than EAAC. But be prepared—it’s not just a gym. It’s a community, a mentorship program, a place of self-discovery, and most importantly, it’s a second home. If you are ready to embark on a transformative journey where every step is guided, celebrated, and shared, then the East Austin Athletic Club awaits you with open arms.

Fantastic experience: I have been attending classes at EAAC for over a year. Challenging workouts, uplifting coaching, diverse community, and fun events made have kept my fitness journey exciting and has kept me motivated. Their classes cater to all levels and there's a variety of workout style options and times to attend the classes. I appreciate all the knowledge and kindness shared by the coaches and other clients; I'll keep coming back to this gym! Also there's lots of cute dogs.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of the Club for a few months. I joined the small group class after trying out one of the big classes. The coach immediately connected me to the in-house nutritionist. They tailored a diet that perfectly complements my workout plan and caters to my individual requirements. The sense of community here is fantastic, and I can't say enough about Coach B, whose unwavering support and extensive knowledge have been invaluable on my fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: This is an amazing community with outstanding coaches. This place is changing the fitness game! The coaches are friendly, knowledgeable and genuinely care about the members. I’m so happy I found this place! If you are looking for a gym, then no need to look any further, come stop by and give the free week a try. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!! And the best part of all is that its dog friendly!! They even have a gated grass area covered with a huge oak tree! It’s perfect for the summer, tons of shade and grass for the puppers to lay on!

Gracie Hartman 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to EAAC for about 6 months and absolutely love it! I did CrossFit for a few years but wanted a change of pace. EAAC offers some CrossFit-adjacent classes called Ascend which are awesome but I’ve also loved the Boxing and Physique classes. All of the coaches are so wonderful, enthusiastic and encouraging. So happy to have found such a cool gym! Also, this is definitely one of the best priced gyms in Austin considering the level of coaching, quality of equipment and size of gym. Highly recommend.

Michael Q 3 years ago

Ana Kawas 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I never thought I would join a gym and then a friend took me as her plus one to East Austin Athletic Club. I was extremely shy since I had never lifted weights. All the trainers welcomed me! They took their time in helping me with my form and motivate me to get better and better each workout. I love that they offer a variety of different classes from strength training to boxing and yoga! Another thing I love about this gym is the community. All the members are extremely nice and friendly! If you're looking for a gym, I'd definitely recommend checking them out!

Tracy Hennessy 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Joined back in March because I wanted a gym that was more personal than the other big box gyms, and with more focus on strength than I was getting at orange theory. The coaches and owners at the club are great, and they make sure to give you tips on how to do things correctly to not be injured, but also help push you harder than you might if on your own. It’s a welcoming environment for a variety of levels and they have quarterly events to get to know other members. They also have a surprisingly large amount of equipment and lots of great variety in the classes they offer, and are constantly making improvements and updates! Definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: One of the best CF gyms I’ve been to in over 11 years. Beautiful, spacious facility. Warm and welcoming staff. Super professional. Most importantly great programming and coaching. Can’t recommend these guys enough.

John Voll 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I personally need a class setting in order to keep me motivated to work out. In the last 10 years I have been a member of 5 "Crossfit style" gyms, but I have only been able to call two of them home. Yeah, their programming is thought out, and I still have growing pains from getting stronger after 10 years, but you can find that anywhere. I enjoy the comradery of pushing through a workout trying to beat the guy that beat me twice already this week then going to get a beer after. The owners do a great job creating a community of inclusion with happy hours, holiday parties, and hangouts. I am happy to call EAAC my gym home in Austin.

Taylor Stephens 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great environment to work out in. Came by to see a friend and get a workout in while on a work trip. Fun and tough workout!
