No Group Technique Class in this room runs past six people, and every one of them gets filmed.

This is the studio’s small group mobility class in Austin: lifting mechanics, squat and walking position, general mobility work, taught to six people at a time with a coach who can actually see everyone’s feet.

Who this is not for. A movement class is not physical therapy and it will not replace one. Anyone with an active injury, an uncontrolled cardiac condition, or a pregnancy complication their doctor has flagged is asked to wait and is not placed on the mat count. If your knee locked up last week, come back when it doesn’t. Every client, including returning ones, starts with a Movement Assessment before their first Group Technique Class.

What the class is built from.

A Group Technique Class runs forty minutes on a mat, with sliders, light kettlebells and a foam block set out before anyone walks in. The coach spends the first several minutes on position, not repetitions — a squat depth that matches what showed up in your assessment, a step-down that keeps the knee tracking over the foot, a hinge pattern that does not round the low back under load. Reps come after the position is set, not before.

Six is the hard ceiling, not a target. A Tuesday evening slot with four names on it stays a four-person class; it does not absorb a fifth walk-in to fill the room. That is the whole reason the price sits where it does: a coach watching four to six people closely costs more per head than a coach watching twenty loosely, and Totex is not trying to be the second one.

Every session is filmed on the same tripod camera used in every other program. Coach Reyes, or whichever coach ran that day’s class, reviews the footage before the next session and brings two or three specific frames to show you — not a highlight reel, a short clip of the rep where your form actually changed. That review happens whether the class had four people or six.

What separates it from a normal group fitness class.

Most group fitness rooms are built to fill, and a coach calling out cues to twenty people cannot watch anyone’s foot placement closely. This room is built the other way: attendance is capped below what one coach can genuinely track, cameras record every session for review, and clients are turned away at intake if they are not cleared to be there. The tradeoff is real — fewer slots per week, a higher price per class than a big-box studio — and Totex is not trying to disguise that.

What this class will not do: it will not diagnose a movement problem, it will not write you a home exercise program, and it will not promise a change in pain or range of motion. Those are outcomes a doctor or a licensed physical therapist speaks to, not a technique coach. If a client needs that kind of care, the coach says so and the class does not continue as a substitute for it.

The schedule shape and how a card works.

Group Technique Classes run in weekday morning and evening slots, plus a smaller Saturday morning block, four or five slots a week depending on coach availability. A card covers four classes and does not expire on a fixed calendar date, but it is priced assuming those four classes happen inside roughly a month — treat it as a month of classes, not a lifetime pass.

There is no single-class drop-in rate. That is deliberate: a studio that sells one-off visits fills seats with people who are not coming back for review, and the filmed-review method only works if the same coach sees the same client across multiple sessions. Buying a card is buying into that continuity, not just a slot on a mat.

A card costs $224 to $268 depending on which coach and time slot it is booked against, working out to $56 to $67 a class. That range, not a single number, is what shows in the price estimator and it is a band, not a quote — your coach confirms the exact card price at your Movement Assessment.
