The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and do an amazing job working with all skill levels -- whether you're a complete beginner or experienced in martial arts.

Our family has become obsessed with this place! Between the family like atmosphere, knowledgeable,…read morepatient and experienced coaches as well as the immaculate facility, we never want to leave! We started our 3.5 year old son here and he's doing great already with the basics of BJJ while also learning team building skills, respect, and engaging in a great form of exercise. My husband and I are also members. We both say after every class how challenging it is mentally and physically but always feel so accomplished at the end of the class! It's somewhere for all ages, shapes, sizes and fitness levels. The biggest perk about Revive is that not only do they offer the best Brazilian Jiu Jitsu training around, but you can also take a variety of other classes with your membership. Between Yoga, Muay-Thai, Cardio Kickboxing and Kettlebell Training, this place really has everything you need. Check it out!

I called this gym to ask if they offered a free trial. The owner confirmed I could come in and…read morestart a 7-day trial immediately. When I arrived, an employee had me fill out paperwork and provide my card information. I trained that day and returned once more, but the experience was disappointing -- no coaching, no feedback, and overcrowded classes where you could barely move. I'm new to boxing and received zero instruction from any of the coaches during either visit. I decided to cancel before the end of the 7-day trial. When I called the owner, he instantly became defensive and claimed I'd signed a 12-month contract. When I reminded him he promised a trial, he said he was "on a roof" and hung up on me. He later admitted that his employee shouldn't have signed me up for a membership and said he would refund me. I provided my name as he requested, but he never issued the refund and stopped responding to my messages. As for the facility itself, it was unclean and overcrowded. The floors were covered in sweat, shoes and clothes were piled in the hallway, and the air was stifling. Safety seemed like an afterthought -- I even had to buy used hand wraps from an employee because no one had a key to the new ones. In the end, I was charged for a "free trial" that offered no training, no professionalism, and no respect. I've had to dispute the charge with my bank. I would strongly recommend finding another gym that values honesty, cleanliness, and actual instruction.
