It doesn't look like professional) *Clerk can't keep promises(signed up for free trial on Friday come back on Monday and tells me trial is over when we both agreed it was ending Wednesday) *Parents jumping into the mat and teaching the kids (This is a big one for me, I have never been to a martial art dojo were parents are teaching Jiujitsu moves or creating agility training. I'm not exaggerating, this instructor was explaining a move and the mom jumped to the mat to correct one of the kids, she wasn't even fit. Then this dad jumped in to make up drills for the kids lmao. Why would anyone pay for a nobody to teach me son when I can just wrestle with him and learn in YouTube) *Instructors(to be honest they looked like they hated their job, not engaging and monotonous tone of voice) I understand this a family businesses but you can't called yourself an MMA gym with the cons listed above

After two…read morekids and having moved to a new city I took the initiative to try a free trial class through Coach Amanda. Little did I know I would form a community of people all looking to be active but also friends outside of the sport. Coach Joe and Coach Amanda are the most patient, giving, and trustworthy of people. They run their gym very professionally and truly do care to see each student succeed at their own level. Thankful for my teammates and the good laughs. If you're anxious to try a new gym or sport out, come here! I promise you won't regret it.

Sifu is certified in various styles even with a 6th degree in jui jitsu and has judged in the UFC. Currently the schedule is not finalized but the draft for the schedule is in place. Circuit training will likely be on Fridays. There is good cardio work in his Muay Thai classes as well. He also has a kali class which is teaching stick fighting. Right now adult classes start at 5pm. Kids would be 4pm. There are morning classes scheduled for given days. Schedule may change seeing the school just opened and he will adjust it according to the students. Classes right now are $80/month for 3-4 classes a week. The classes are typically an hour long each. It's a really good deal. He teaches himself. He doesnt have an assistant teaching his classes which seems to be common for other schools in town...

Glutes, hamstrings, shoulders, and traps transformed going and training here, it transformed me like nothing else has in my life, if your on the fence or have never tried fighting in your life please just go, all the coaches are extremly friendly and understand excatly where to take you from a complete beginner, and nurture you into becoming a master, id like to say they have my upmost respect and praise as im doing very well in my life as of writing this, a complete 180 as to what i went through last year.

He is such a wealth of information when it comes to Muay Thai Kickboxing, Boxing, MMA, and the Martial Arts that he used to Coach Dan Henderson and Team Qwest. I truly appreciate the fact that ALL levels and Ages (12 and up) can take the same class and still grow together. I'm coming back from being overweight and injuries and my daughter has never trained before, so being able to spend time with her and learn the science of 8 limbs, the beauty of Boxing, and the Art of MMA.

I can't say enough good things about Heart and Pride Muay Thai. Joining this gym has been one of…read morethe best decisions I've ever made. I came from a background where I was never active. I never played sports because I didn't think I'd be good at any of them, and I never enjoyed working out. I originally joined because I simply wanted to be more active and find something fun to do. I never imagined I would completely fall in love with Muay Thai. Over the past year and a half, this gym has given me so much more than just a workout. I've made amazing friends, gained confidence, and found a community that genuinely feels like family. Everyone here is welcoming, respectful, and supportive, no matter your experience level. The Krus are incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging. They truly care about helping every student improve while creating a positive environment where everyone can succeed. A year and a half later, Heart and Pride has become my second home. It's a place I look forward to coming to every week, and I honestly can't imagine my life without it. If you're thinking about trying Muay Thai--even if you've never been athletic or played sports before--don't hesitate. This gym has completely changed my life, and I'm so grateful to be part of the Heart and Pride family.

It is a small gym, but that gives it more of a family vibe. As for my husband I wish I could get him to go all the time lol. When he was going daily he was in the best shape of his life. The classes range from beginner to advanced and are great for anyone looking to get in shape. The classes don't just incorporate Muay Thai but calisthenics and other fitness techniques. Kenny the owner and head trainer is very knowledgeable.
