rachel rohrer
"I walked in with less than no experience and was hooked immediately. The gym is so friendly! Everyone just wants to see you improve. The women's only class is great and I've always felt welcome in the other classes too. Mike and the gym members have built something really special here. I'm so glad I gave it try."
Jorge Contreras
"Mike is an excellent teacher who has a welcoming and safe environment regardless of your experience level. He has helped me tremendously with my wrestling/standup. Any questions you have, he’s always happy to go over with you w/o any hesitation."
Dardan Gashi
"Truth is, trying something new can be very intimidating. Especially a combat sport or martial arts like Jiu Jitsu. Mike - the owner - has made it a point to make his gym a welcoming one and accommodating to those just getting started. If you’re looking to get in better shape while learning a skill that could seriously benefit you in the future. There’s no better gym in the area."
Jason Melnuk
