Getting in shape as a parent is hard. Getting your family involved makes it stick. AE Fitness is a locally-owned community gym, not a big chain, and family involvement is at the core of how we coach.
Kids & teens: real coaching, age-appropriate
Our Youth Fitness program teaches kids and teens how to move well, squat, hinge, push, pull, sprint, jump, in a safe, coach-led environment. It builds athletic ability for sports and lifelong movement literacy for everyone else.
Parent-friendly schedule
Early morning classes at 5:00 AM, 6:00 AM, and 8:30 AM, a noon class, and weekday evening classes are built around school drop-off, work, and pickup. Saturday classes are at 8:30 AM and 9:30 AM, while both Sunday sessions at those times are dedicated to HYROX training.
Do it together
- Saturday morning family workouts, bring the kids, we'll set up a parallel session.
- Family Beach to Bay teams in May.
- Bayfront Sunday walks, informal, no coach needed.
- Backyard bodyweight circuits, we'll write you a free plan.
Nutrition for the whole household
You can't out-train a bad pantry. Our Nutrition Coaching gives families realistic meals, grocery lists, and habits that work for busy schedules, Coastal Bend fresh seafood, HEB-friendly, kid-friendly.
Why locally-owned matters for families
At a chain gym, your family is a membership number. At AE Fitness, Alain and the coaching team know your kids' names, know when you missed a session because a kid was sick, and check in when they haven't seen you. That's the difference between a gym and a community.
