We moved to TX from CO and let me tell you there is nothing like the Warrior Playground. We have tried other gyms in TX and nothing compares to the level of training the athletes get at Warrior Playground. The coaching is top notch, the equipment and obstacle options are plentiful. Sam has put together an amazing and irreplaceable gym.

My whole family started going to the Warrior Playground during the pandemic, and I can't say enough good things about this place. The trainers/coaches are super knowledgeable about fitness and alignment and so passionate about what they do. It's been life-changing for me and my husband after having young kids and falling out of our routines, and it's given our kids a ton of confidence in their bodies. Highly recommend!!!
