Fighting Fit Kickboxing & Jiu Jitsu

First a quick review: Best gym in Austin, not only do you get a great workout and become a better fighter, but you also have a very supporting community that helps each other grow and enjoy the pain, like family! Now my story: As a Bruce Lee fan, I joined the gym without knowing what to expect since I never did any martial arts, but hoped to learn and experience a bit of what Bruce Lee taught and loved. What did I get? Heck of a lot more than I could ever hope. Coach Forrest’s Elite program has been fulfilling my desire to learn and grow as a martial artist with all the knowledge he possesses (which btw comes from a VERY close source to Bruce Lee himself), while Coach Corey has awakened the fighter in me I never knew I had and I now love fighting and competing. The best aspect of this gym however, is not just the coaches, but the community they have managed to build and maintain. Every single person in the gym is unique and awesome, we’re more than training partners, we’re friends, and dare I say it even feels like family. Be it training, working out, or making friends, whatever the reason, this is the gym to join!

My dad went here when I was just a little kid and it was still a boot camp, and after growing up and boxing for a few years my dad had recommended to make the switch now that it’s more of an mma gym. Still run by the same coach Forrest that was here when my dad was, along with coach Corey, the place has been great and I have no regrets. The private lessons with coach Forrest follow a strong curriculum that covers all fields of striking, from clinch work to long range kicks, in a manageable and clever progression that uses limited sparring to focus on specific techniques and parts of the curriculum and has really helped me improve to be more than a boxer and I’m sure will continue to. The regular classes taught by coach Corey are just as good and provide great drills, the coaches are very knowledgeable and very helpful about learning any part of combat they go over. The gym has a homey environment and everyone is so nice which makes the sparring here great, I’m sure especially for people just beginning to learn and start to spar. Overall great gym with great people that focus on all sorts of technique and encourage creativity with your way of fighting.
