Keresea Otts
"I have been in and out of gyms my whole life. This gym has been life changing. I have never been in better shape. The trainers are caring and encouraging. The other members are welcoming and friendly. It was a bit intimidating walking into an MMA gym but this place has become my second home and the people have become family. They have classes for adults and children. Many members bring their whole family. I definitely recommend checking them out!"
Destyn Perry
"Awesome gym with great facilities, knowledgeable instructors, and a welcoming and encouraging culture. I wasn't a very "active" person when i joined, but I've been a member for around 4 months and its been a huge positive for me. I've actually stuck to working out for once in my life! I couldn't recommend any gym more highly."
Charles Garcia
"This place has become my second home. I love the training environment here and the care and passion of all of the instructors. Professor Chris is one of the most positive people you will ever meet and his staff, coach BJ, coach Andrew, Coach Mark, and Coach Crystal are all great and knowledgeable. This is a place you can come be a part of a team. They make you feel like family from day one!"
Phillip Garza
"The trainers and members here really promote a family friendly environment. If you're looking for something different, really try their free class to see what your getting into. Unfortunately their class availability didn't work with my schedule. If they ever offer more classes that fit my schedule I would definitely sign up."
