I brought my son in to build confidence. September will be his 2 years in the program and has improved significantly. Coach Chase has built this kid to be a phenomenal athlete. Coach Eric, Coach Sam, and Coach Frank and everyone that helps this program succeed are phenomenal mentors and really take the time to teach the proper techniques the kids need. This program for kids is highly recommended to build your child confidence and build their self esteem. I encourage my daughter to join the program, now she enjoys it so much she wants to be here early.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Started training here 3 months ago and got hooked very quick - I go to 6-10 classes a week and spend many hours training

Sam, Erik, Clay, and chase are all amazing coaches who you will see regularly, along with Austin on occasion

There is more casual lessons, and the coaches will pick it up a notch for regulars or folks taking it more serious. Highly recommend stopping by for a free class if you are interested in training

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Came in with no experience and did kickboxing and boxing. Did it for about 6 months, only stopped because of work. Would recommend them they have good pricing and different programs to try. And i came out feeling so confident in my abilities to defend my self, better myself, challeng myself, ect. Eric and Clayton are gentlemen

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been attending this gym for almost 2 years and I love the coaches. Eric is funny and supportive, Chase is very supportive, especially when I was doing a tournament. Clayton is a small king who will try his hardest to teach you boxing. The teammates are great once you get to know them. You'll get fit pretty quickly. The schedules change sometimes, but it's still worth going to.
