Jared Lozupone
"I can not say enough good things about Ironguard. Sensei Tom and his family are amazing. My entire family has signed up, me my wife and son. We’re all loving the experience. In fact we’re enjoying BJJ so much we’ve signed up for our first tournament. We’re making life long friends here and can’t wait to get back on the mats for training."
Matthew Harper
"This is an amazing gym!!! I have been training for a little over a year now and I was upstate for the summer and was looking for a gym to train at for a July and August. I found this gym and it has been nothing short of perfect. The staff are super friendly and helpful and professor Tom is amazing it felt like every class there was some new insight into a technique that I hadn’t fully understood before. To summarise, this a great place to train whether your just starting out or have been trading for a while. I Highly recommend checking this gym out."
Brandon Rubik
"My son (7yo) and I (33yo) have been training at Iron Guard for a few months now and I can’t speak highly enough about this place. I have experience in boxing, BJJ and mixed martial arts. It’s been a little over 8 years since I last stepped on the mats but Sensei Tom and the team of coaches at Iron Guard welcomed me and my family with open arms. My son has loved the kids class and the family environment that it fosters. Toni, Amanda and AJ are great, they keep the class fun but disciplined while Sensei Tom brings high level BJJ concepts to a level the kids can understand. My son has come so far in a short time. The adult class is challenging but inviting. Everyone treats each other with respect and works together to improve their games. Cathy runs a great back office and is incredibly supportive. Having spent time in multiple gyms I can tell you that Iron Guard is second to none. In my time at iron guard my BJJ game has substantially improved, I have lost over 30 pounds and renewed my drive to exercise and get healthy. Training with my son has brought us closer together and allowed for a lot more quality time together. I would recommend Iron Guard for anyone at any level but especially for families looking for an exceptional environment filled with supportive individuals."
Todd Irwin
"This gym is awesome. If your looking for a family oriented yet professional gym this is it. Sensei Tom is a seasoned veteran who is incredible both as a person and training partner. Other gym mates are always welcoming new comers with open arms and positivity. Really a class act gym with people who really love and enjoy the things that they do."
