    This place isn't diverse, which is expected considering the area. The instructor made it a point to call me out during the session continuously and mispronounced my name wrong several times. Also, they are highly fat-phobic. The front desk staff gave insinuating and condescending glances (racist microaggressions seeing that I'm both black and plus-sized). If you're not “advanced” in your fitness journey, avoid this place like the plague. They go so fast that you'd risk an injury because you have no time to ensure your form is correct. ( I have a personal trainer, and I regularly weight train and the way they train you during the class is not at all best practice). Be wary of coming here, as they don't provide accommodations or modifications and operate from a place of shame and judgment.

    I absolutely love workouts here! The staff are all so sweet and friendly and instruction is top notch. It’s a super positive workout environment and always clean. Every day of the week is a different body area focus and scheduling classes is quick and easy. The locker rooms are luxurious and you get a cold towel after your workout ;)

    Love this location! I have been to almost every Barry's in the US and Paco and Nicole make this location special. They pushed me to prep for an easily done marathon and now I am a regular at this location.

    Amazing place to get your workout on! Staff is welcoming, trainers are motivating, and facilities are kept above standards. I highly recommend trying them out and adding classes to your weekly workout routine!

    Great staff onsite! Always welcoming and full of energy! They are ready to help and will keep you motivated the entire time! This is a great workout and it’s hard work but the time goes by so fast with how great the music is.

    Went for the first time. I felt the class was super unfriendly for beginners. I didn't know where the coach was the whole time when she was demonstrating the moves and she only showed them once. I had no idea what I was doing. I would not recommend coming here if you are just beginning your fitness journey. Also the treadmills are strange and I felt like I was slipping the whole time and I felt like I was going to fall.

    I love the high intensity workouts. The staff and all the instructors are lovely too. The bonus for me is the shake bar. Amazing protein shakes that are made ready for you at your request at the end of a workout.

    Whenever I’m in Houston I try to stop at Barry’s at least once. I’ve been to several Barry’s studios around the world and Houston does not disappoint, the workouts are great and the staff and instructors super friendly. If you’ve never been I strongly recommend that you try it out and if you’ve been to Barry’s somewhere else, go to the Houston studio, it’ll feel like home!

    I love Barry's! It's a great workout, the instructors are amazing and helpful, and the staff is super friendly. It's a really nice, clean gym. Definitely recommend!

    Absolutely LOVE this Barry's. Not only is a kickass workout with lots of variety, but the trainers and staff are incredibly nice and supportive, both in and out of the red room. James, Isaiah, and Megan are amazing!

    I typically fall for workout cults and this one has me in for now. I previously did OTF for years in NYC before the pandemic both gyms have similar structure but totally different goodbye rowers! It’s a bit boogie but I have slightly boogie tendencies so it works out for me. Give it a chance good workout. The treds are worth its weight in gold! Update…... Not only do I love this place I try to go every day, and I’m hooked! Took a trip recently to visit the sister (lives in a different state that has Barry’s) and we took a Barry’s class together, she now goes everyday. We compete on Apple fitness which I recommend weekly challenges with friends and family. Anyway Work out HARD and be nice

    Above and beyond! From Miami and am in town for work so I decided to sign up and give Houston Barry’s a try and wow!! The staff was so warm and welcoming and the thoughtfulness with the signage and then card on the bench.. Blew me away.. Barry’s Houston you really know how to welcome someone! Thanks so much, can’t wait to come back!😁

😠 This place is a disgrace. The two lat pull-down cables have been broken for over three weeks and they look at me like I’m crazy for thinking they should be repaired. Most of the other equipment is either broken or missing. Even at $15 per month, it’s too much.

👍👍 I have been coming to Fitness Connection since April and I'm glad to say that I lost 30 lbs. It's a really big and nice gym. The perk is that they have a sauna. This gym also have many machines and cool classes. The workers there are really nice and knowledgeable. This gym is a keeper.

😠 By far the worst maintained LA Fitness Gym I’ve ever been to. Most of the Leg workout machines been out of order for almost 3 months. They just stopped caring about fixing because the gym is always packed and they’re getting their monthly dues. Literally there’s just one machine for leg rise Workout...
