“I’ve been training at Significant Strikes for a few months, and it’s hands down one of the best decisions I’ve made. Whether you’re a beginner or advanced, the training is tailored to help you grow. The classes are great for building cardio and strength, but they also boost confidence, discipline, and mindset! The coaches are genuine and invested, and the community is super welcoming!

“Great coaches and great culture. I highly recommend SS whether you are looking to learn, improve, compete or just get a killer workout. I've done the boxing and kick boxing classes and highly recommend them. Coach Chris, Zach and Allison have built something very special here. More experienced fighters like Drake always bend over backwards to help those who are less experienced. Clean, well-maintained facility with a dedicated, passionate leadership that pushes their students to reach higher. FIVE STARS!”

“During vacationing in traverse city, I messaged the closest jiu jitsu gym about a drop in. Significant Strikes responded quickly, welcoming me to come in. The next class was a Friday 6 AM open mat. Came in early to fill out a waiver and get warmed up. I was greeted by a student, Roger, who gave me a tour of the gym and explanation of the morning class. After the class was over, i got invited to come back to the comp class later in the evening, in which I did return. Overall the atmosphere of the environment and hospitality of everyone i encountered was superb. Highly recommend this MMA facility for anyone in the area, visiting or just looking to get into martial arts.”
