East Austin Athletic Club

"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!!"

"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."

"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."
