Yoga Athletex — Local services in Houston

Plain and simple, this gym is in the top 5 best things to happen to me in my life. If you're looking for a place that is absolutely NO JUDGEMENT, will work with you and help you regardless of how "in shape" you are, have previous injuries, or are just looking for a support system this place has it all! If you're trying to get in shape and shed a couple pounds I can guarantee that if you commit to this program, it will absolutely work for you! Within about 5-6 months I lost over 20 pounds and counting! The best news about that, is I did it the right way, with no quick fads, so it was safe and healthy for my body and I'm more likely to keep it off. If you're already convinced then read no further; however, if you still need a little bit more persuading let me go into a bit more detail.

I was a former collegiate athlete with previous injuries, so I hurt all the time, from the moment I stepped out of bed until I finally crawled back into bed. Therefore, I quit working out because the only way I knew how to work out was lift heavy and put a lot of strain on my body, and therefore I gained quite a bit of weight. I was unhappy, unhealthy, and ultimately was in grief for losing the first love of my life, soccer. Yoga Athletex could not have come into my life at a better time! I started going once a week and then twice a week and now I'm there about 4 days a week. After much convincing and persuading the girls at Yoga Athletes convinced me to try yoga. I went in there very reluctantly, and came out wishing I had been practicing yoga my entire life. I haven't felt this great in years! After months of practicing I'm able to touch my toes! This may not seem like a great victory for some of you, but I've never been able to touch my toes in my entire life. Now I'm telling every single one of my friends they need to do yoga, whether they need help emotionally, mentally, or physically. By the way I was "that athlete" that thought yoga lame and pointless, talk about making me eat my own words. These women have helped pushed me to be my best and supported me in some of my most difficult times. Yoga Athletex isn't just a gym, it's a family! If you're a former athlete and feeling like a part of you is missing, or wanting to get into shape and need someone to push you, or feeling like you need a support system then go check out Yoga Athletex, because I promise you WILL NOT be...

As a high school runner who had to hang up her spikes due to an injury, I am extremely mindful of training for prolonged performance. I found YAX when my middle school child was complaining of back pain while playing volleyball. I spoke to several trainers and coaches and heard explanations from bad form to weak muscles to lack of ability to continue in the sport. When I brought her to YAX, after a 45 minute functional movement screening, they found her issue was tight hamstrings. The only thing she needed to do was consistent stretching to resolve the issue. We were spared hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars in medical bills as well as time and pain.

After watching my daughter's rapid progress, I decided to join and bring my entire family because every class offered is thoughtfully designed. Every trainer/ instructor is an expert in what they do. Breathwork, nutrition, strength and conditioning, jump training, yoga recovery--anything that an athlete could want to incorporate into her training regimen is offered. Every trainer shows consideration and care for every person in the class.

Owned and operated by two former athletes, I love that my daughters have the opportunity to train in a facility that is focused on training female athletes. The classes are accessible to athletes and non-athletes alike. Every person at the front desk, on the gym floor, and in the yoga studio is friendly, mindful and encouraging. It is the BEST place for a safe, fun and effective training program for development of the...

My daughter started her training with Yoga Athletex as part of her team training for her club volleyball team, Skyline last season. She totally fell in love with it and wanted more!
