I first started at AO when they opened ten years ago and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. I found community, life long friends, and a welcoming atmosphere for anyone looking to improve their overall health. Their second location is opening soon in Mueller! If you’re looking for a place to workout that is inviting to all, AO is your spot. Austin is lucky to have them!

Best gym in Austin! The entire team is greatly supportive and so encouraging! If you’re looking for a place to chase your goals with amazing accountability partners and a really cool community — you’re looking for AO. See you at work!

I can’t say enough good things about AO! The classes are well structured with thoughtful programming, and are fun! All of the trainers are friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and foster a great and inclusive space. The classes are welcoming for all levels and other gym members are friendly as well. The space is always clean. I also appreciate being able to get into classes without the stress of having to book them weeks in advance (looking at you solidcore). I used to come to AO classes via ClassPass but recently joined a full membership and wish I did it sooner! I love coming here and can already feel I’m getting stronger and more fit by coming more consistently. I appreciate how supportive everyone is at AO. Looking forward to the new location in Mueller, I know it’ll be just as amazing as the one on east riverside! I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for functional fitness in Austin. Especially great that they are a locally-owned Austin business. The owners, Brittaney and Pat, have created such a special gym and community here in Austin!

AO is much more than a gym—it's a community of people who are committed to working hard, training with purpose, and showing up with a positive attitude. Whether you're just beginning your fitness journey or looking to build on an established routine, AO welcomes everyone with open arms. From day one, you'll find friendly faces, unwavering support, and a true sense of belonging.
Brittaney and Pat have created an exceptional environment led by highly knowledgeable coaches with extensive expertise in movement and performance. Their focus extends beyond proper technique—they are committed to helping every member become stronger, faster, and more capable through thoughtful, progressive training. Each coach brings not only their professional expertise but also their unique personality, creating an atmosphere filled with encouragement, laughter, and genuine camaraderie.
What truly sets AO apart is the way they support their members through every stage of life. Throughout my entire pregnancy, the coaches helped me continue training safely and confidently, adapting workouts to my changing needs while empowering me to maintain a sense of normalcy and strength. Their understanding, encouragement, and expertise made an incredible difference during that chapter of my life.
I am incredibly grateful for this community and for everything Brittaney and Pat have built. AO is a place where people are genuinely invested in your success, both inside and outside the gym. Five stars simply aren't enough to reflect how exceptional this gym and its community truly are.

I joined AO about a month and a half ago, and it's been exactly what I needed! From meeting new people to the structured classes and personal training, it's been the best form of self-care. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and know how to push you throughout every workout while keeping it motivating. I couldn't recommend it more!

This studio rocks. It's open, bright, spacious, and lively. Good parking lot. The coaches are AMAZING! Kylie is such a great coach, always providing feedback and modifications, but also pushing us to go heavier (and every time we do, we crush it!) So glad I found this place for strength training!
