The mat chats with Sensei Alex at Victory MMA are everything! He is a cool dude and understands what is truly important in life. As a parent, it is so powerful for my son to hear these messages from Sensei. My son carries this joy and focus with him to school and into our home. We have been attending MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) for a year in the 4 to 7 year old class. I love being on the bleachers in the dojo to watch the class and hear the mat chat. This helps us reinforce the message at home and also practice the moves of the month. It is very easy to get acclimated to class. Sensei Alex is kind and has a genuine passion. There are also a number of "Sensei Dads" that take the adult class and help out with the kids class. They are all such lovely people! Everyone has a smile and is excited to be in the dojo training. The energy is contagious and the kids have a lot of fun while also learning discipline, confidence and focus. We are so grateful to be part of the Victory family!

My son has been a student at Victory MMA for about 3 years (back when there were only about 4 kids…read morein the class). My hopes honestly were just to get him introduced to the mat in preparation for his future wrestling career in a way that wouldn't get him burned out like so many kids I know that get forced to wrestle at such a young age. This has turned out to be so much more than that for him. He learns more about respect and honor and making good habits than he does anything else. I've seen my son grow not just as a martial artist, but as person; inside and outside of the dojo. Sensei Alex Krotiak is absolutely amazing and it is no wonder that the class has gotten so popular that he had to add another youth class due to the overwhelming demand by parents to get their kids in his program. I absolutely love this place and all they do, I can't say enough good things about it. I would recommend Victory MMA without hesitation to anyone looking lead their children down a fulfilling journey of respect, discipline and of course, self defense.

For the first 40 years of my life, I thought exercise wasn't for me. I didn't know the first thing…read moreabout it and I had the body to prove it. I was delighted to find a local trainer here in Arlington Heights who was not only willing but eager to help me learn how to make fitness a regular part of my life. I've loved working with Eric for the past year. He focuses on functional fitness and helps me train across different exercises and disciplines. This includes traditional weight training, but also kettlebell, cardio, combined strength exercises, and even yoga. Eric has even helped me get my diet under control, reviewing my eating habits and helping me find healthier alternatives. I am in better shape than ever before, but thanks to Eric I've made fitness a regular part of my life. I went from someone who could be winded by two flights of stairs to running my first-ever half-marathon, something that would have seemed crazy to the old me. Throughout it all, Eric has been a kind and patient guide. I'm grateful to have found him.

I am a 78 year old woman. I have always been physically active, but after a diagnosis of ""severe"…read moreosteoporosis, I decided to seek out a personal trainer who could give me a more systematic exercise program. My goal is to see if resistance and weight training will improve bone density going forward. Eric lives nearby and seemed like the perfect solution. He's knowledgeable, accommodating, and easy to talk to. We've only been at this for six weeks, but I'm very happy with the program so far.

I have attended two of the Saturday morning cardio kick boxing classes here and they were awesome!…read more I would not expect any less from Justin though - he is focused on each client by explaining each move, correcting their form to avoid any injury (especially when kicking the bag) and attentive to each clients individual needs. This is not the first time that I have worked with Justin - when he was in the "chain style" gyms training clients that is where my journey began. It's been over a year since I have seen him but think it is important to let you all know the following. I was severely overweight and when he was my trainer he taught me not only different workout styles like tabatta, boxing, cardio, strength but he also taught me about the heart rate monitor that I would wear during my workouts. How important it would be to stay in certain zones to target fat burn. I had lost just under 100 lbs under his care and have continued to lose since. He would point out another gym member and say you will get there... his encouragement felt honest and sincere just like it does today when I'm back there working out. I'm glad he reached back out to me so I have the pleasure of being around the trainer that started me on my journey! You won't be disappointed at all and the other clients taking the class are friendly as well, which helps a lot! If I am able to share my before/after photo I will but I can't in this post. The photos he has shared I know are true because I have seen some of these clients transform as well around the gym and then at this training facility.

I am so glad that I found Ultimate Fitness. I have been working with Michael since November,…read moredropped 5% body fat and lost 13lbs. Michael is very patient and knowledgeable, he is always there to help and push you forward. Everyone is very friendly at the gym, the trainers actually care about you and your results, instead of always trying to sell you services like at other gyms. This is the best money I have spent and invested on myself.

I cannot say enough good things about Infinite Fitness. When I started going here, I lived only 10…read moreminutes away...now that I moved 45 minutes away, I am still coming here for personal training twice a week. You will not find a better trainer anywhere in the Chicago area! Even if you were just looking for a new gym without personal training in mind, I encourage you to check it out anyway. Seriously. If you never do any other personal training in your life, come here for a few months. They offer 2 free sessions I think. Take advantage of them. You will see. I have been going to Infinite Fitness for about a year and a half. (I had looked into it before then because of the reviews, but didn't go initially because I wasn't really looking for personal training - I should have just tried it anyway!) My boss recommended I make an appointment with Kevin when I was having some low back pain/sciatica, and it was probably the best advice she ever gave me. I had been trying to deal with the pain for over a year, and Kevin was the first person (not doctors, not physical therapists) who actually identified my movement pattern problems and we started correcting them together. I have improved to such an amazing degree that looking back, even I can hardly believe it! If only I had started going to one of the trainers here when I first saw the Yelp reviews, I might have corrected the problems sooner and never had to deal with any back pain at all. The trainers here can personalize your workout perfectly no matter what your fitness level and needs. If you train here, you WILL get stronger, you will move better, you will feel better. I know a lot of people will do personal training because they need motivation in order to work out effectively, but this is so much more than that. You will use what you learn here to keep healthy for your whole life.

For whatever reason, I always had a gym phobia. But last summer I decided to give Infinite Fitness…read morea try and schedule a personal training session with Charlotte. The gym is an independently owned gym with really nice owners. They have some exercise machines, weight lifting machines, free weights and other gym equipment for your workout. The gym is very clean. I have been seeing Charlotte for over a year now. She is great and almost like my personal therapist too! My confidence is so much better. And I no longer fear the gym or dread working out. It is a mixture of people and I feel comfortable. You should check it out.

I'm a blue belt. Dropped in for a Gi class while on a business trip and had a great experience…read more Actually, I did two classes fundamentals and advanced one. And the latter, I felt a bit like a newbie with only me and another white belt. The rest were purple and up. However, my brown belt partner was very supportive. The gym was clean, well-organized, and welcoming to visitors. The coach ran a structured class with solid technical details. Training partners were respectful, skilled, and supportive--perfect mix of intensity and safety. Definitely a spot I'd return to if I'm back in the area.

Classes are typically run by 2-3 black belts, though it's not uncommon to have additional visiting instructors. Typical class attendance is 10-20 students of various levels. Classes are structured well, instruction is scaffolded so that you're usually building off techniques introduced the previous classes. Come ready for a workout--from warm-ups all the way through sparring at the end, expect to be challenged physically. I've experienced nothing but positivity and support from instructors and senior members, many of whom take special care to provide additional instruction to make me a more effective grappler. There is strong camaraderie among members and a strong team atmosphere. I'm proud to be a member of the team.
