What Our Students Say

Madison McGhee
"I've been training at SBG for a few months now, and it’s been an amazing experience! As a 17 year old I was a little nervous at first, but everyone here welcomed me right away. The coaches are incredible and are so supportive. The training is amazing as well, whether it’s morning classes, noon classes, or night classes. The energy in the gym is always positive and motivating. One of the best parts has to be when we compete together, the team spirit and support makes it so much fun! I highly recommend, such an amazing team!"
Cayla Cates Huff
"If you are looking for an amazing gym experience that offers classes for ages 4 + teaching different types of skills and training that will help them in the future. My son has been a member of SBG for almost 3 years and he has learned so much and has learned discipline, leadership and lifelong skills that he is committed to the sport and I thank the amazing coaches who helped him get there and made it fun along the way! Coach Montana and coach Autumn for everything!"
Amber Walker
"Straight Blast Gym. The name fits the environment. When I started training at SBG I had zero experience with grappling. I was nervous in the beginning, but quickly fell in love with not only the sport but the people too. My improvement as an athlete is a testament to the hard work that my coaches and peers put forth every time they step on the mats. Now, I'm proud to say that after a year training here I've earned 3 gold medals competing in tournaments. I can't thank my team and my coaches enough for their dedication to helping me grow in this sport."
Ginny Walker
"I can't say enough great things about SBG!! I was looking for something new for me & my kids & found out about this gym through some friends. I decided to step waaay out of my comfort zone & signed us all up for Jiu Jitsu. We all LOVE it!! Coach Woo & Greg have been absolutely amazing & encouraging!! Everyone here has been so kind & helpful & there's no egos on the mats. This is huge for me! There's a true family vibe going on & I feel like everyone is there to lift each other up & help them succeed. I will be recommending SBG to everyone I know!!!"
