I've been a member of Rip Current Athletics since Jan 2022 and I absolutely love what Rip Current Athletics has done for me both physically and mentally. When I joined the gym, I was over weight and my self care habits needed improvement. Coach Art has been instrumental in keeping me focused on my weight loss goals as well as my strength and mass gains. His training experience and positive attitude towards helping his clients has truly helped me lose the body fat I desired as well as gain confidence in my ability to work hard to train and take care of myself to a higher level. The facility is always comfortable, clean and well organized and the members are welcoming and supportive always!

Great facility, atmosphere, and owner! This veteran owned and operated gym is the place to go whether you’re a drop in or looking for a supportive place to work out. Art will make you feel right at home, keep you motivated, and encourage you every step of the way. Definitely one of the best!

Coach-guided fitness classes offered 5x per day. I have been a member for 8 months. I attend 5 days a week and have lost 30 lbs. Supportive Coach and members. I feel so much better. Much more than just a gym. Coach doesn't tolerate the drama that exists at other places. Nutrition guidance and regular measurements of progress.

The gym is clean, fun, and extremely well equipped. Art, the owner/trainer and decorated Marine Drill Instructor, is a great guy. He makes working out fun and effective. I highly recommend him, his fitness classes and his gym.

I have worked out on my own for most of my adult life, however, when we moved to South TX, I felt like I needed a change so decided to check out Rip Current upon the recommendation of a friend. It was just the boost I needed! Art is an excellent coach! He knows how to motivate and keep us on task and also pays attention to make sure our form is correct. He suggests alternative moves if you have pain or injuries. Even though he is a former Marine Drill Sargent, he is friendly and fun -not stern, like I expected, but still serious about helping us get to our full potential.I can tell my stamina and muscle tone has increased since joining. He has a variety of workouts and I am never bored -they are super fun and challenging. He just added ropes for climbing - made me feel like a kid again! The camaraderie among my fellow members is great too! Art is very helpful with information on health and nutrition as well.I highly recommend Art and Rip Current Athletics!

I dropped in and the process was extremely smooth, Art was awesome in greeting me and explaining the WOD, and the equipment and facility is one of the nicest I've ever seen. Good people, good workouts! HIGHLY recommend Rip Current.

The family and I spent the week in Port Isabel / SPI for spring break. I found Rip Current online and decided to drop in for the week. The whole process was great. It was easy to sign up and a fantastic place to workout. The owner and members are great folks that made me feel right at home. Whether you’re looking to work out for a day, a week or long term I highly recommend Rip Current! Check them out! You’ll only regret not going ???

Started coming to this gym in November of 2022. I haven’t stopped coming since. Classes are geared to what you think you can do. But you end up doing way more then you think you can handle. Art is an amazing coach. He takes his time to explain and demonstrate each exercise.Classes are for all ages. I am in my 60s, if I can do it, so can you!!

Want a good work out - go here! Want a clean gym - go here! Coach Art does an excellent job at explaining each exercise thoroughly and spots and helps each member through the class. Exercises can be modified to each individual’s ability without having to leave the group. This gym also counts with a variety and enough equipment for all. Members are all polite and friendly, this gym definitely has the feel good vibes as well.

I was in town for work for a month looking to workout and came across Rip Current Athletics. Art and the whole gym welcomed me immediately with great attitudes. Art takes his time to explain all the workouts and answer any questions, as well as make sure you perform the exercise correctly to ensure you get the best workout experience possible. Overall this is a great gym with great people, can’t wait to visit again!
