    We joined them last year, and have done wonderful and helpful swimming classes. They've helped my kids with skills and water safety. The opening hours during Covid, and signing up for a short pool time 30-45 minute windows, and almost never having a spot available drove us nuts! Closing at 7:45 pm, too. Getting rushed to leave as well... But! We love their staff, and remained members. Visited the YMCA Chasco a few times, because they have an awesome indoor pool. But NorthWest 'upgraded' their outdoor pool with a cool slide, last Summer. And it's well loved, and worth mentioning. Also my kids love their playground and open field to run around, all part of the Northwest premises. I can't compare much with other locations, but we love ours!

    Probably the best YMCA in the Austin area. Everything is newly renovated and clean. The pool is large. Staff is wonderful. The area is clean. Even the outdoor area is peaceful and nice. The gym could have more equipment but I'm in the pool more so it's not a huge issue. Especially because there is the North Austin YMCA not too far from this location. Showers are also very nice too. The pool is heated and they have a hot tub as well!

    If you don't want people sitting on stands by your pool put them somewhere else. 15 years olds telling us where we can and can't sit. LOL

    Exercise was never this much fun. I find myself going more often because of the people I meet. They make new feel so comfortable.

    I've been a member at this location for two years, and what happened on Sunday, December 7th has…read moreconvinced me to cancel my membership. I started my morning as usual -- a workout followed by time in the steam room. While walking from the bathroom area, I accidentally placed my jacket on a chair without realizing it was near someone else's belongings. The individual began shouting profanity at me from across the pool/hot tub area. I immediately apologized multiple times, but the yelling only escalated. Thinking he might not have heard my apology clearly, I walked closer to make myself understood. Instead, he moved toward me with his hands up in a fighting stance, even though I was apologizing repeatedly. Feeling unsafe, I backed away to the locker room and called my wife so we could leave immediately. At the front desk, things escalated again. The same individual followed me, caused a loud scene, and then walked toward both me and my wife with his hands still raised as if preparing to fight while shouting at us. This was extremely frightening. The staff stepped up to the counter, but no one said anything or intervened, which made the situation feel completely uncontained. What concerns me most is that management has not contacted me at all about this incident, despite how serious and disturbing it was. Over the past year, I've also noticed an increasing number of individuals who appear to be using this facility as a place to linger rather than to work out. This location seems to be struggling with how to manage that, and it has led to multiple uncomfortable or unsafe encounters -- including this one. What makes this even more disappointing is that I had a very similar experience at another 24 Hour Fitness location in Austin last year. Between both incidents, it feels like member safety and conflict management are not being handled consistently across their facilities. Between this incident, the declining cleanliness (including mold upstairs), and the overall drop in atmosphere, it's disappointing to see how far this gym has gone downhill. This used to be a peaceful place for me to work out, pray, and meditate -- but I no longer feel safe returning.

    Best little gym in Austin, hands down!…read more If you're looking for personalized functional training at a small gym that feels like a second home, look no further than Focus Fitness. As a 'couch potato in remission' AKA someone who doesn't exactly enjoy going to the gym and sweating it up, I have found my perfect fit at this tucked away little place. Not only do Dave and Paymahn definitely know their stuff, they also know how to make training fun by keeping it interesting and keeping you challenged. I joined Focus a year ago with fitness goals in mind; I keep on going not only because I see real results, but because the team and the other clients have become dear friends I look forward to seeing and having fun with. Thank you for keeping me on the right track, Focus Fitness!

I was also trying to recover from an injury and Dave worked up a training plan to help me recover and get stronger. Flexible training was also great, never once did I leave the gym feeling worse than when I started. I was encouraged to push my self but never to a point of injury, some days Dave could see I needed to adjust the programing and I still got a great workout injury free. I have learned so much about weight training and gotten stronger than I thought I could be. Since starting at Focus Fitness I have had the chance to do other workouts, boot camps and CrossFit classes but it wasn't what I was looking for after experiencing training at Focus.

    The name of this place. Horrendous…read more... But pretty good gym for the price. The equipment selection is very vast. It's never insanely busy here even during lunch and after work hours. So you will always hone an area or machine freed up for you. My only complaints is that they blast booty rap really loud through the speakers. Like the loudest gym ever where you can barely hear the people at the front desk when speaking to them. Other times they will play butt rock which is just a tad more tolerable. Some may not survive without head phones. The men's bathroom is not the cleanest. Always smells. If you are a sauna user. It is also just mid. My other bigger complaint is that the heavy bags upstairs are unusable. They hung em on chains so high that they are pretty much unusable and they run into the ceiling frame. Kind of a safety issue on that part..... Other than that, better than most other gyms in this area of the price point

Don't even ask for trial passes and one week pass. Same price as the membership. This place is just trying to bleed you of money. They don't care about the gains like their name states. Day 1 when I tried signing up I arrived at 6am, stood at the front desk for nearly 20min with no one around. Turns out dude was in the restroom making TikTok's. Signed up, no tour, no info on the gym, no idea what he was even really doing. Day 15 I walked in to the gym, signed in. Walked past front desk, went to warm up and forgot my water bottle in my car. Went to grab it then came back in. While I was walking back in the front desk dude yelled with insane attitude "hey sign in" I replied I already did, maybe if you weren't on your phone looking down when I walked in the first time you would have known. I am all for understanding, but you raise your voice at me like that? Not my jam, but I kept it cool cause I just took some pre and figured I was just raging from the pre. But it pissed me off and ruined my lift for that day. Day 25 they don't seem to know which is a standard for their foam roles or straps. One person lent me the foam roles, another person required an item to check it out. I attended this gym for maybe 3 or 4 month and went right back to BigTex cause this gym sucked. They say 'Mecca' or whatever but this place is Mecca crap. Scummy management, save your money. Go to BigTex, MetroFlex or even Fitness Connect. Prices are similar. Loud music, and when I say loud you have noise canceling headphone on and you still hear their gyms music. Dirty! cleaning staff is there but somehow it's still nasty, dried sweat on the window for months on end. "Ohh it's busy" I drew an 8 on the door with my sweat and it stayed there for nearly a month. I'd rather be at metroflex with the weight outside in a barn basically. Restrooms never seem to be working properly, one of the showers is always running. Yet no one is in there. Haunted or busted water system? Final review it's a NEW gym but somehow feels like it's already 4 years old. Cool equipment, shitty staff, shitty management, shitty deals, shitty across the board. Yet they are EXPANDING and making ANOTHER gym? Focus on one make it awesome, then start another. Money grubbing at its finest

For best results, going in 3 or 4 times a week will sculpt your body and boost your mood. I've always been physically active my entire life. I practiced professional dance for 23 years, ran track and played basketball. Non of those physical activities were for my husband and I wanted to find a workout that we could do together that he liked as well. We didn't have to go to far as we found Lagree Fit 415 studio just around the corner from where we lived in SF and after taking the first class, we were hooked. It's now going on 3 years with a break in between cause of the pandemic, moved to Austin, picked up where we left off at TLS ATX and I'm down 8lbs. Again, I'm absolutely hooked and you will too as soon as you start seeing the results. Don't wait anymore cause you are missing out!
