...IS FOR O ATHLETIK
Houstonians’ dream of a one-stop shop fitness facility with everything and
anything you can imagine is finally coming true. O ATHLETIK is a 35,000sf
facility with a variety of fitness disciplines ranging from cardio, weight lifting, martial arts, ladder drills, multipurpose fields, hot vinyasa flow yoga,
sand volleyball, crossfit and more. “Our programming is what sets us
apart,” says co-founder/president James Cooper. “We consider ourselves
innovative to orchestrate various disciplines with over 100 classes available such as running and cross-training classes to classes that focus on the
upper body and lower body.” Involved in the fitness industry for over 20
years, Cooper noticed that fitness activities are secluded. “There’s always

something missing. All the workouts are sports- or fitness-based. There was
never a gym that has everything.” O Athletik focuses on building a tightknit community to educate people on fitness and how to apply different
disciplines such as martial arts and weights into their daily workout. Oh,
and did we mention there’s a juice bar and cloud spa too?
O Athletik opens January 31.
