The level of instruction…read morefrom both Professor and assistant instructor Garrett has been absolutely wonderful for me as a complete beginner. Learning a martial art was something that I really wanted to do, but was extremely intimidated to start. I chose Soma because of the excellent Google and Facebook reviews. After attending my first class and experiencing the extremely welcoming and friendly environment, I knew that I had chosen the right school. I signed up for a membership on my second day. I'm still very new to the school and to jiu jitsu, but I have definitely found a place where I belong. If you are looking to start jiu jitsu, looking for a new school, or looking for a place to train while traveling - I would definitely recommend Soma!

However, I changed my mind when some of the girls I worked with expressed interest in training. This was the closest place. I did call at first and didn't receive a call back like a previous review.

I looked at the time... saw it was class time and sent an email to the gym. I did receive an email back! Chris asked me if I ever trained. I told him yes but I'm probably going to only do no-gi because I didn't plan to train while I was here initially and didn't bring my stuff. He said told me it was no problem and he had a bunch of loaner gis that I was welcome to use. Chris is really down to earth and welcoming as well as all his students! The vibe is great at this gym. I've been training for over 9 years and I really appreciate when a gym welcomes guests as their own and has that family feel right when you come in! Come try them out if you are in town!

I was here short term for military training and education but had a great time training with the team here. Everyone was welcoming and encouraging.

I was coached and welcomed as one of the team without a second thought. It is clear the culture they have here is intentional and supportive. I recommend anyone in the area train here.

My sons and I have been training at S&G for well over a year now. The kids classes are a great way…read moreto keep your child from sitting in front of the TV all night eating Cheesy Dibbles. The kids coaches are high energy and start each class with a variety of warm-ups, games and drills that help the kids become coordinated and learn important body movements while having fun. They move on to the lesson of the day, and are constantly supervised by the coach for safety and to make sure they are doing the technique correctly. They get great exercise and learn to defend themselves and respect each other. I am constantly amazed when I see one of my boys do a new move like they had been doing it forever! The professor and coaches are top notch black-belts and have trained many champions and MMA fighters. It doesn't matter how old you are or what your experience level, these guys will quickly help you improve your game. If you need to get in shape, this will beat going to a gym any day. One of the best things about S&G is the people that go there. Everyone is friendly and welcoming, always willing to offer pointers and help anyone out.

OVERPRICED, UNFINISHED AND ALWAYS "UNDER CONSTRUCTION" FACILITY, AND SPORTS TRAINING CLASSES ARE…read moreTREATED AS AN AFTERTHOUGHT This gym is a one trick pony. They do the cycling classes well. But that seems to be where they devote most of their energy, funding, and promotion. Sports training class attendance seems to be dwindling and attendance is far below the levels achieved when the sports training program was located at the far superior (but unfortunately closed) Zero Gravity. The facility is cramped, and the sports training areas are STILL under construction more than a year after they absorbed Zero Gravity. The gaudy and cramped front lobby has seen more construction attention than the actual training areas, being stuffed full of fancy lights, TV screens, bikes, and bike related merchandise that no one seems to buy. That tells you a lot about the priorities of this gym. It's fluff. Bunch of junk for sale. Fancy soap in the showers. Aromatic wash rags after you cycle that you can use to wipe your face. But failure to complete the training areas that members are actually paying to use. Sports training classes that are removed from the schedule for lack of interest. And the amazing thing is Logik raised the prices from Zero Gravity levels, expecting members to pay a premium price for cramped, unfinished facilities and poorly promoted sports training programs. There are numerous options in this area that are far superior to and much cheaper than this gym. I would not spend my money here.
