"I travel for work and in my travels I get to train at a lot of different gyms. Of all of the gyms that I have trained at this one has to be the best so far! So much talent, a great environment, and all around good people at this gym! I cannot say enough good about this gym. If you’re in the area make sure you go train with these great people!!!"
David Dilts.
"Awesome gym. Coach is at every class and is the best in the area. Classes are welcoming to everybody and the progression of skills is insanely fast. Highly recommend for beginners to the sport as well as people from other gyms to try it out, I’ll bet it’s better than one you’re at now."
Matt Yeow
"Did a drop in class here while visiting from out of town. The curriculum the class was working on happened to be in an area I struggle with and the instructor Chester and my training partners were patient and helpful which I appreciate. The gym was clean, the people were friendly and Chester was generous with his time despite the fact that I was passing through. Very cool place to train, with a slick aesthetic to boot. Thanks for letting me stop in!"
