NEVER COMING HERE AGAIN…read more One star because when I came in I stood in line as this was my first time being there after 5 minutes of standing the guy whose line I was in told me the ladies further down could help, irritated because they could have told me that because the two yt ladieswere not doing anything from the time I came in till the time I walked to them. I told the lady (striped shirt)helping me that the kids with me were mine another lady next to her tried to help her(blonde) told me because of my age the kids need a guardian as if I didn't just say they were my kids when it came to having to sign the paper for my guest they didn't give me a pen when I asked for one the blonde one set the pen next to striped shirt and I asked again for the pen. Striped shirt picked the pen up and slammed it on the counter at this point I was ready to leave. I walked to vatamy whatever her name is to ask where the pool was because the two yt girls upfront obviously don't know what they are doing and of course vatamy had an attitude while mean mugging me as if she doesn't work there and me coming to ask a question was such an inconvenience what a surprise I pay for a membership at YMCA and here I am being treated like I don't waste my hard earned money here so unprofessional I WILL NOT BE COMING HERE AGAIN SO LONG AS I BREATHE.

But I don't really mind being on the receiving end of some punches. Group was friendly and welcoming. Coach though was behaving strange and impatient to say the least. He got upset when I continued a fight on the ground instead of trying to stand up. Like people can read his mind. Very unreasonable and kept on repeating how he trained so many champions (check their website too for more big stories). He reminded me of people I met in office that were about the have a burn-out. Really disliked his attitude. I must have pressed his ego-button or something, pretty sure he did not like me either. Never had issues at 3 previous gyms, where I have trained for 28 years in total. Will look for another gym.

This is a great Crossfit Box. It is located in convenient are in the Houston heights, and the…read morecoaches and crossfitters are very friendly. This was my first time participating in Crossfit at this gym, and the attention to detail the coaches give in the areas of safety and form is much appreciated. The coaches are more concerned with newbies getting practice their first time versus completing all the reps for time. I thought my first time was going to be very competitive because this is what I was used to from other Crossfit gyms I have gone to in California. I felt as thought the lack of competition for newbies made the workout and whole atmosphere feel more welcoming. This is definitely a great way to keep people happy and coming back, and remove the whole aspect of Crossfit intimidation. I even felt a little intimidated driving there my first time but this was completely gone after I stepped foot into the gym and Clark Hibbs welcomed me like we had been long lost friends. He went out of his way to introduce me to the other crossfitters even though it was a couple minutes passed the start of the workout. I did snatches for the first time today (7/26/2016), and I was very concerned about having good form because I did not want an injury. Clark Hibbs broke the snatch movement down into 4 different movements we practiced individually a number of times. After we all mastered these individual moves we put them all together in one quick motion while he watched each of us. If any of us needed an adjustment to the snatch he came over after we put the bar down to show us how to make an adjustment. Other typical coaches might talk you through it but showing is one of the best ways to improve form immediately. Clark is very encouraging for newbies, and experienced crossfitters. I think he understands there is always room for improvement no matter how long a person had been doing Crossfit. He uses different forms of motivation - soft encouragement, and suggestive techniques - which work very effectively to get people to push to their max. He asked if I could just get that last rep, and I felt so motivated to make it happen. They charge $185 per month for a membership, but after your first time you will understand why this amount is worth all every penny. I would try Clark Hibbs workouts your firs time. I am going to start dropping in once a week for $20 per session. You can see how this would add up to almost 3x the $185 membership fee per month. At $185 / 12 class per month if you only go three times a week this comes out to around $15 per one hour class. I think this is very reasonable for the knowledge and practice you receive from very experienced Crossfit coaches. Robert

Had my first Cadillac Pilates class here with fellow yelper Lyn and it was fun! We started out…read morewith stretches, picked up some weights and balls for balance, and moved on to using the springs, handles, and bars of the machine. Our instructor, Hailey, was energetic and friendly, demonstrating moves and checking on us as needed. There was a very low-pressure environment even for newbies, which made it fun :) The room looked pretty cramped when I walked in but once I was on the mats / machines, it didn't feel claustrophobic at all. (Although don't get the spot near the wall, because my right arm didn't have enough space to extend out during certain stretches, but not a deal breaker!) The person using the machine before me didn't wipe down very thoroughly so there was a big oily spot that was a little yucky to work out on. I didn't know there was a spray bottle to use below the machine until we were done and asked to wipe down. Having the instructors or staff do a quick visual on each machine to ensure it is (or at least looks) clean might be nice. Other classes like mat Pilates and hot sculpt / hot lift Pilates are available too ($33-44 per class). Parking is free in the lot but it fills up so you might have to sit and wait for spots. Trying Cadillac was fun-- I'm planning to return and try another class when I feel like splurging!

Not to mention for one class is $44 , and to be a member is $220-300+ each month! which does not seem reasonable... The heat in the room is what makes you sweat, and the formations seem like something I can do from home. If you want a challenging pilates studio, I would not recommend. The only thing great about the studio are the instructors motivations during workouts. * There is a woman / staff in the heights location who is extremely rude. I asked about the studio because I was interested, and she seemed like she did not want to help me at all. Not only that, when I got in she did not welcome me. The studio does not feel inviting or welcoming by the staff in the front desk. Majority of the front desk give you mean girl and seem like that are not happy to work there.
