I've never been much of a gym person but after loosing my love for running (I was that actual…read moreperson who ran one marathon and went "yeah this is really terrible") I knew I needed to find a new form of exercise for both my physical health as well as my mental health. Living in the energy corridor I had a lot of different options but I did not want a cookie cutter gym, I wanted somewhere that I could belong, somewhere that I felt the staff would get to know me and not judge me if- and when- I did something wrong. Plus I wanted classes- I LOVE group exercise classes cause I have no idea what to do on my own. So I took my then boyfriend and we went to MAC. We really found it to be a welcoming place. It is not the cheapest around but one thing I have learned is that I would always rather have quality in the things that affect my overall well being. I have made friends at this gym, I have been through Harvey and road construction with this gym and I always felt valued as a member. I've been kept in the loop- they do a fantastic job of hosting different types of events and keeping their social media up to date. And now through what is proving to be one of the most interesting events to happen they continue to show their dedication to members by offering youtube classes and free virtual classes. Every day they are posting and making sure there is something to do and a way to get a workout in even at home. This is far more than a gym but truly also a community and a family.

I absolutely love Memorial Athletic Club! The atmosphere is so welcoming and everyone is super…read morefriendly. I go almost every day for Training for Warriors with Jeff, he's an exceptional coach who really motivates you (and Lex). Yoga with Guillermina is always calming and inspiring, and Zumba with Julia, Edie, Kevin is full of fun and energy. Felipe is super supportive, and honestly all the coaches are amazing. It's truly my favorite place to work out, push myself, and feel great

After several years away from home, The Perfect Workout persisted in notifying me that I had some unused workout sessions left. They are super flexible and allowed me to renew my expired sessions. I went to the Memorial location for the first time (I used to go to the River Oaks location), and Alex was my trainer. Since it had been several years, she carved out extra time to walk me through the method again, and to ensure I had the proper weight on the machines. She was positive, motivating, and a delight to work with. Very glad that I get to come back to this 20 minute workout designed to build and maintain muscular health!

My mother & grandmother both have/had osteoporosis and I needed to prevent it from happening to me. Read about PW in a newspaper advertisement one Sunday. I called, went the next week for free session, signed up for three months and the rest is history. I have lost 20 pounds (need to lose a few more) and dropped several inches and firmed up my body. The trainers are excellent, capable, well-trained & professional and you know that any trainer at any facility can do the job. I happen to be very pleased with my current trainer, Thomas, who has been an inspiration and talks me through the burning muscles and "muscle success". We have fun but are very serious about the workouts. Look forward to every new week. Highly recommend the Perfect Workout for all ages!!! Thanks,

I hesitated to go back to jiujitsu because most schools throw inexperienced people in a room and say "go at it"! This leads to a ton of injuries. NOT at GJJ Houston!!! I came to a free seminar at this Gracie Certified Training Center in Houston run by Professor Jackson Fortunato. This gym runs a very structured and very safe school that is backed with an amazing curriculum created by Gracie University. They believe everyone can learn jiujitsu and not have to worry about the "only the strong belong" mentality. Everyone is super nice and welcoming. They have classes for every age and everyone in the family! Come out and try a free 10 day trial at an awesome place to train!
