Very welcoming atmosphere and everyone was exceptionally kind while I was visiting. Harrison made it a breeze to confirm the class I would attend when I called initially. I even received waivers to sign digitally and a confirmation email. This school is huge and has really great facilities. Everything you could want is under one roof here. Professor Ron showed techniques that have real world application. It was a friendly and skilled group.

Great place. Love the atmosphere, great coaches. All skill levels are welcome, there's something for everyone. If you just wanna burn some calories 2-3 times a week, totally cool. If you wanna go hard spar, take multiple classes a day, that's cool too. All for the same price. People are welcoming and its always easy to find a partner. No judgment zone!

There are no better kids coaches than Jeff and Matt. I've been to other gyms and have been around mma gyms in and out of state. Coach Caveman and Flores are special people, if your looking for a martial arts gym for your kids try it out here you will not be disappointed.

I trained here for the following month prior to shipping out for the military. I've trained in dozens of gyms and have never gotten the experience I got here. The trainers are respectful, kind, and experienced. The equipment is heavy duty and have variety. Everyone in the gym is kind and respectful. A special thanks to Corey for having me this past month. If I'm ever in town I will be coming back here. Remember, check your ego at the door.
