The progression we've seen in such a short time is incredible. She's not always the best listener, but since starting, we've seen huge improvements at home and at school too. The instructors and owner are so patient, kind, and genuinely care about the kids. You can tell they truly love what they do and take joy in watching each child grow. We can't recommend Family Martial Arts enough--it's been such a positive experience for our whole family!

My children and I have been taking classes at FMAT for a little over 2 months. We have really…read moreenjoyed it! They offer a variety of classes for children, adults, or together as a family. My kids (ages 5 and 6 when they started) look forward to going and often want to practice at home. The children's curriculum is as much about following instructions and developing positive qualities as it is about learning martial arts moves. Similarly, the adult classes spend time on flexibility and mobility that not only improve your technique but overall fitness as well. The instructors are intentional about learning names and will take the time to give students additional help if needed. I came in as a total newbie in my late 30's, so that has been very much appreciated. Overall, highly recommended!

There are such a large multitude of classes that Yoga8 offers, that I feel like i can learn something new every time I decide to come. I now attend yoga about 4 times a week. The instructors are genius, especially Kim and Angela. Superb stuff. Truly my life has shifted this summer. I highly recommend giving it a try. There is something for everyone at any level. It is a warm, welcoming environment. So clean. Need I say more?

Each instructor I have had at the studio is kind, knowledgeable, and passionate. They take the time to ask how you're doing and adjust the practice as needed to meet your needs and breathe into your tight spaces. The owner is very personable and fun to be around. The community is diverse and is compiled of people from all walks of life. I am looking forward to being part of this community and practicing with these wonderful people in this special place.

Very nice and clean facility. Fairly large, so you can almost always find an open cage. Front desk…read morestaff is always extremely nice. Cons - bring your wallet. $40 for a thirty minute lesson seems extreme. Our last lesson was with the facility manager, and no joke, he was on his phone for the majority of my niece's lesson. We were there on time, but our lesson started five minutes late as he was out in the main area talking with people. During our 25 minute lesson, he took two phone calls and checked his texts 7-8 times. So basically every 3-4 minutes he was on his phone. For $40 you think he could give us full attention for 30 minutes. Twice he said "good job" to my niece when she completed the action she was practicing - when he was looking at his phone and not even watching what she was doing. We had another lesson with a different instructor and he was super good. Focused on my niece the entire time. Actually gave her 45 minutes as when our lesson was up, he said he didn't have any more for the day, so he gave her some extra attention. A-plus for that due. Great facility. Some really great and friendly staff. And some great instructors. But if you are going to charge $40 for a thirty minute lesson, you should give that student a full 30 minute lesson.

David Orr has been training with me for three years now. As a physician I am very aware of the…read moreimportance of proper body mechanics and safely pushing to new fitness levels. David is the most knowledgeable and consistent trainer I have ever worked with. He brings years of experience to his clients and is great at tailoring his training to all ages. David began by helping me set fitness and health goals and after achieving those goals he encouraged me as I set new ones. I can not recommend David enough if you are looking for the best and most experienced trainer in Waco. He recently moved and started training out of The Lab. Their equipment is new, the facility is clean and well maintained and it is a perfect setup to work with your trainer without the usual distractions at most gyms(noise, overcrowding, smell).

Like I said, it's a smaller gym, so it doesn't have hundreds of machines, but it has all of the basics you need to get a really good workout in (squat rack, leg press, smith machine, nice dumbbells, cardio equipment, etc.). Gym is clean and everything is in good condition! I typically only have to share the gym with one or two other regulars + their trainer. Everyone is so nice, polite, friendly and accommodating; they are happy to share equipment and make sure they're not in your way or hindering your session at all! I love working out here and will be sad to leave. If I weren't moving, I'd train here forever.
