I have been training at Austin Kickboxing Academy since may or June of 2025 and this gym has helped…read moreme in so many ways. I am in the best shape of my life from training hard and in a better place mentally. It's a very friendly environment and the classes are very intense, everyone is very encouraging and they push you to become stronger and work hard. All of the coaches here are very skilled and nice people, they personally assist you throughout the class to help you understand the correct form and it's really helpful. To anyone thinking about joining just come take the free trial class like I did and see if it's for you!

What a workout! I had my first HEAT total body - strength and stability workout with Billy and felt…read moregood and burned a number of calories to boot. I was a little apprehensive about boot camp workouts before coming here but I can see how effective they are as you keep moving during these workouts and get some cardio conditioning too. Good form is encouraged and the instructor goes from station to station to motivate and to help with modifications. Plus you get a killer playlist to listen to and people of all fitness levels to workout with. Looking forward to incorporate Heat into my exercise routine.

I loved the no nonsense workout routine at HEAT. It's a no frills focused bootcamp style workout…read more Both instructors I've experienced were superb at helping modify and focus on getting a good workout in rather than doing moves without efficacy. My Saturday session was quite full but Thursday was only 6 of us. The group varied in experience and intensity so you never felt left behind and always had someone to observe and feel inspired by.

I dropped in to train at The Void mid December and had a great experience from start to finish. One…read moreof the ladies training there (the amazing Lex) actually beat me at a jiu jitsu tournament. We hit it off while competing and became friends through that experience, which says a lot about the kind of supportive, women-forward culture that exists at The Void. When I shared that I was looking for a new school, she invited me to come try out. On my first day, Mars (the owner) gave me a full walkthrough of the facility. The school is located inside a larger facility that includes showers, a full workout gym, a sauna, and more. The fact that The Void members have access to all of these amenities honestly blew my mind. All of the perks, along with the schedule and membership details, are clearly laid out on their website. I also really appreciated that there is no contract and that pricing is very affordable, especially for downtown Austin. I tried MMA sparring, jiu jitsu, and kickboxing. Jiu jitsu is primarily no gi, but you can bring a gi if you want. Every coach I interacted with was knowledgeable, respectful, and patient. Any time I had concerns around safety or technique, they listened and offered modifications when needed. As a woman training in combat sports, this made me feel genuinely respected and well taken care of. On the MMA and kickboxing side, it's worth noting that they have heavy bags in house. The kickboxing classes (led by Christian) also had a strong women presence which I loved. There is no uniform requirement for any of the classes, so you have a lot of flexibility with what to wear. I recommend wearing comfortable clothing and bringing gloves and shin pads if it's your first time. They also have a in house videographer and photographer who captures amazing photos and videos. You can check out his work on Instagram at @donpablo.arw !! I live up north in the suburbs about 30 to 40 minutes away so if it were not for the distance, I would have signed up in a heartbeat. I made a lot of friends in the short time I spent at The Void, and that really speaks to the training environment and culture they have built. The location itself is great with plenty of parking. There is cold water available, a vending machine nearby, and very clean bathrooms. Mars was communicative, and since I tried out during a weird time with the holidays, I was especially grateful for their generosity in allowing me to train through the end of the month. The Void also hosts free community events, such as the upcoming Couple's Self Defense Date Night. All of their information can be found on their website or Instagram at @thevoidmartialarts. I highly recommend The Void to anyone interested in jiu jitsu or MMA in the downtown Austin area!

I wanted to start the year with a self-defense class, so I did some research and chose this place…read morebecause their website clearly outlined what to expect. Lu and Alex were fantastic instructors, making the 1.5-hour session fly by while ensuring I felt confident defending myself against close-range strikes. Working with partners was a great way to connect with others and practice techniques in a realistic setting. It was an excellent session and a valuable opportunity to learn self-defense, which differs from kickboxing since it doesn't require building up routines and steps over several classes. The only downside is that parking can be challenging due to the shared lot with other fitness businesses. So plan to go a little early to be on time and park along the street.

I have been going to F&F for 3 years now and it has been amazing. I got started by doing the 2 week…read moretrail pass and went to ever single class I could. My favorite classes have been the 6 ( a six week area focused strength class), heavy bag (cardio class with lots of kickboxing moves), and barbell (weight lifting). I had never touched a kettlebell, heavy bag, or barbell before and its shocking how much you pick up. The confidence boost from trying it to the first time to seeing your progress after a couple of weeks is crazy. The variety of classes was great but what really kept me coming back is the amazing community that Amelia and Amie have created. The gym is so welcoming to people of all fitness and knowledge levels and there is never any pressure to give more than you can. You truly feel welcomed here.

We've been working together individually now for several weeks. I sought out individual sessions to get back in shape. So far, I'm very impressed.

Josh makes sure to only let you do exercises you can handle while also making sure you stretch and don't get injured. He has also helped me with a meal plan to help speed up results. If you're intimidated about working out, don't be. Josh definitely makes you comfortable and does all the exercises with you :) One of the other things I like is the workouts are always different which keeps it interesting!

Fit Austin has been my find of the year. So if you live anywhere close you should absolutely try a…read morefree class! Once you do, assuming you're motivated to make a change in your life, you'll most definitely become hooked. The facility and equipment (free weights, treadmills, TRX, Infrared Sauna, bio-metrics reader etc.) are top-notch, the training staff is excellent, and the classes are great. For the classes, the staff certainly wants to help you see results, but you do train at your own pace. Which is a good thing because with like CrossFit (which I've done) workouts turn into competitions and competition lead to injury, Fit Austin is self paced. Ultimately, you're only competition is yourself and what you decide to put into it. Special shout out to Lane, who always brings the energy + excellent WODs to the table. Do yourself a favor, drop the gym membership that you rarely use and when you do you just got through the motions. Instead get into see the crew at Fit Austin where you might pay more but you'll absolutely get more out of it. Thanks Fit Austin!

Lateef and his team are the best! I've been coming here for just over a year and I'm not only…read morenotably stronger I look so much better naked ! The workouts are tough but the best thing is that they are ALWAYS different. It's never the same boring old routine. They recently got an infrared sauna too! Their class times align to people who work long hours in addition to people who don't work as you can attend the 6am or 7am classes ( that's where I'm at ) or the 12pm or 5:30pm classes. I enjoy this class so much more then I ever enjoyed Barre, Yoga or CrossFit. It's just a true combination of everything and that makes it so much more doable as it never gets boring. Random body parts are always sore. They also always provide alternatives if you have an injury. The class is super diverse. People of ALL ages and ALL weights. It's refreshing. You're not intimated but you're also motivated. Personal tip: If Lateef doesn't immediately respond to your email just email again. He's an actual owner hustler as he teaches so many of his classes and does a lot of personal training and he doesn't have an assistant so he juggles it all on his own. Fit Austin is totally worth it so don't get upset just send a follow up and he will respond. It's worth it!!!!

I've been severely out of shape since Covid because the gyms shut down, and I didn't feel safe going into a gym once they did open up. I was at my absolute heaviest weight I'd ever been, and getting back into shape seemed daunting. With Olivier's help, I am now building muscle, upping my cardio, and shedding weight. He focused on technique above power, which was really important to me because I came in knowing absolutely nothing and of course I don't want to get injured. Now if anyone were to put me in a threatening position, I know I can knee them in the head, teep them, and/or give them a nice punch to the liver. I feel more confident in my abilities, and I feel like I have a healthier, better body.
