    I am all about giving experiences as gifts, and the gift of Muay Thai with Coach Aaron right in the…read moregrit of South Philly for my husband's birthday did not disappoint. The training sesh was the perfect introductory class to hook anyone. We got right down & dirty really did some work. To surprise my husband, I simply called Aaron, and we set up a time to meet early in the am before his regularly scheduled classes. It was simple. I highly recommend a private before jumping right in. It gave us an overview of the craft & what life is life on any given day at the gym. The gym is rather large but kind of hidden in a back street. It's insanely clean (Aaron was actually cleaning as we walked in), and you, of course, just leave your shoes in the entrance areas, never on the mats. Aaron is super sweet, patient, & thorough. He answered all of my zillions of questions & taught us all about Muay Thai's history, the difference between that and MMA, & about his yearly pilgrimages to Thailand, which look insane!! It was great to be able to pick his brain as we learned. Aaron didn't take it easy on us, we certainly got right to it. I never once felt intimidated or unable. He's super respectful, & we left feeling pretty knowledgeable about the craft, & certainly like badasses. We definitely want to take more classes together! I love that this is something we can do as a couple!! Aaron told us people of all levels, even children, train. He has weekly & drop-ins. They're all pretty reasonably priced. I grew up watching Pay Per View fighting with my dad late at night. He always wanted me to be a kickboxer because of my solid dancer legs. I felt like I was living out some long-lost dream here with Aaron & it was truly excellent!! It's definitely a confidence builder and certainly makes you want to learn even more for next time. Fighting is my favorite sport & hubs & I watch it regularly. It was nice to not just talk about but be about it!! Boom!! We recently finished watching 'Kingdom,' an insane incredible show about MMA, so this goes hand in hand. I highly suggest, if you're watching & intrigued, taking a class with Aaron OR if you're taking lessons with Aaron to watch! It really makes you want to train & learn the actual technicalities of fighting. Aaron is super educated & just deconstructed what exactly went wrong during the big McGregor fight on his Insta. I suggest a follow if you're into fighting. He often (especially during quarantine posts at home spars)! We couldn't have loved or recommend this experience more for any lover of fighting. Honestly, it was perfect. Perfect lesson, perfect space, perfect teacher, perfect gift. Oh, and I love that old school vintage fights are shown on the TV in the background on repeat the entire time. It really gets you in the mood!! Such a super incredible time & gym!

    Avoid at all costs and sign nothing that comes from EFC. My kid didn't go here, but to Joe's…read moreprevious location. Once he's outed as a fraud and grifter, he packs up, changes business name, and moves. My story with this clown began normal enough. I had a special needs kid that showed an interest. Everything was cool for a few weeks. It went from Joe being there in person to being "on vacation" for weeks at a time. The instructors were a mix of people who were skilled and competent to men I don't really want around my kid. And eventually there was one instructor for almost 20 kids. My kid was yelled at multiple times because he wasn't doing what he was supposed to. However, he didn't receive ANY instruction. He was just being berated because Joe can't bothered to staff his supposed gym. Then comes the separation issue. We withdrew our kid because he wasn't literally not receiving instruction. I kept time on my phone. The final day it was 37 minutes without any direction. I tried contacting Joe multiple times about how unsatisfied I was with the unprofessional behavior. After notifying Joe we were done he threatened us with breach of contract. That's right. As soon as the money starts drying up he's Mr. Responsive. He even threatened my credit score. I received tons of emails from EFC, his hatchetman, to pay up or face consequences. Well, turns out Joe can't keep records, like most absentee business owners. He couldn't produce a signed contract, because I didn't sign one despite his insistence. He constantly needed more time to find it. And kept initiating charges on my credit card until I reported it as fraud. He eventually produced a document signed by someone other than me hoping to bully me into paying. I reported EFC as fraud to my credit card and my lawyer had to send Joe a strongly worded email to cut his fraud act out. He backed off eventually, and moved shortly thereafter. If I didn't have access to a lawyer, I would've been on the hook for hundreds of dollars, if not more. To Joe: you're a fraud. You prey upon people to sustain your lifestyle. You provide no real service or value. I think the term for that is parasite. I still have screenshots of all your texts where you threatened me with financial harm. Before you reply, my lawyer hates...what was it that he called people like you..."scum bags." Yea, scum bags. And he's up for another run at you and EFC. Get a real job. You're both a has been. You're a never were.

    The quality of the classes is good, but I docked serious stars for the lack of clarity about…read morepricing. The classes are more than the earlier review that said it was $129, and they are not unlimited at that price point, anymore. The price listed in the contract omits at least $150 in mandatory exam fees-you even get charged to find out what material is covered by these exams. These hidden fees left me with a bad feeling and I asked to be released from the contract within the cancellation period listed on the contract. The owner was extremely belligerent and threatening. He outright refused to honor the terms of his own contract. Despite the lack of professionalism, the quality of the instruction is good. So, my advice is to ask about the exam fees, registration, class fees, required gear, and the costs of exam materials.. Take a good look at the schedule (there is only one class per discipline per day).
