Gym and Front Desk Staff are awesome! This place is the cleanest gym I have ever experienced. Full weight room, long field sized turf section for Sled Work, a full size boxing ring, full size MMA Ring, and a sand volleyball court. Literally everything you could need to work out like a pro athlete. The trainers here are super cool too, after a couple weeks they become like friends and its good to see them around :) Good community for sure! The Best Gym in Houston!

As a college student living in College Station, I came to Houston for the summer to visit my family & wanted to find a gym I could attend. Needless to say, I found O’athletik and attended their boxing classes with coach Alex. I had an amazing experience, and every class was a challenge and it gave me the push I needed to reach my fitness goals. The staff & management were also very helpful with any questions I had! Now moving back to College Station, I wish there was another facility located there so I could attend while I’m going to school. If you’re looking for a welcoming safe space to train, I would 100% recommend O’athletik!

My friends and I come here every Sunday. We don’t have memberships, so we just purchase day passes, which, by the way, are so reasonably prices. Just $15. There’s no reception, so that made it confusing. But, I came to learn that the staff behind the café counter are also impromptu receptionists.
The layout of the gym is sectioned like Tetris blocks. Right before the entrance is a door into their group classes. Then, when you walk in, the indoor field is to the right. On the left is a large squared section divided into halves with equipment on one side and BJJ mats, punching bags, a large ring, and an octagon on the other. It’s really aesthetically organized.
There’s always plenty of equipment available every time I’ve gone. Which makes sense because there’s no formal reception for membership services.
The thing I love most though is the cleanliness. Every area is constantly being sanitized. It smells fresh, and I’ve never been able to say that about any gym.

I remember when they first opened, it looked a little too fancy or expensive for me.
I found out they offer brazilian juijitsu in the morning as part of the normal package, so i decided to check them out. Turns out the Professor is a world class champion & coach. Professor Washington is a multi stripe (3or 4) Blackbelt who really cares for his students. The class size is perfect in that it is small enough for Prof to keep a close eye on how people are doing (and what specifically each person can do to improve) , but big enough to keep rolls interesting.
On top of this, for the Joe Rogan fans, you can hit up the sauna & then take a cold shower (mini plunge) afterwards.
Couple that with mobility, yoga, and cardio classes, not to mention weights, (all included), & you can be the best you.
This review is more bjj focused, so if you are thinking to yourself, ‘bjj is not for me’, I would still encourage you to stop by for a trial.
The employees have great attitudes & are ever so welcoming - they always stop what they are doing to say good morning & goodbye w/ a smile (perhaps this sounds cheesy to mention, as the skeptic in me/you may think the gesture is artificial…. Everyone has ups & downs, so taking a weighted avg, my vote is that it is genuine). Lastly, management is attentive & fair. Evidence of this can be seen in many ways. A few examples: always have lots of clean towels (for shower & workouts). Water fountains work. Equipment is top notch & in good repair. Outdoor hill astroturf replaced with even better quality, safer version. Sand volley ball pit still clean & appealing as ever. Boxing ring, octagon, & bjj mats all regularly cleaned - never heard of anyone getting ringworm,etc.
This place is just a great place to go.
