Attentive, knowledgeable, and patient trainers. Healthy mix of gender, age, color, and fitness levels in the member community. Excellent fitness programming; very variable movements. I could attend every class in a week and never repeat movements. There always seems to be a program focus in place e.g. 4-week bench press focus, 6-week running focus, etc. Each program starts and ends with a test to assess progress over time. The programming motivates regular class attendance. The gym also nurtures member community with regular/monthly events like bowling, trivia, rock climbing, pot lucks, etc. It's fun to connect with other gym members outside of the gym given we see each other so regularly in the gym. I've just completed month 8 with the gym, and I'm in the best shape of my life. Hitting the ground running in 2022. Big thanks to the FW Strong staff and member community.

After attending group classes fairly regularly, I've gotten much stronger overall. The coaches play a huge part in not only motivating you but making sure you're doing the lifts correctly and safely. I highly recommend FWStrong to anyone who wants to get strong, have fun and be a part of a great community.

Two more accomplished male black belts. Many advanced level coaches as well, plenty of adult training partners, and a small army of Genesis kids! Very reasonable pricing, no contracts, tons of class times, and great people. All levels, from beginners to black belts, train here. The environment is very welcoming. Competition is encouraged but not required, and there are many very successful competitors here in different age ranges, weight classes, and belt levels. Focusing on the kid's side for this review: Started about 3 years ago with my 4 year old daughter. We came for a trial class and enjoyed it, so decided to keep training. Another big factor was the female ownership and strong female membership. I wanted my daughter to have those examples to look up to. We have never done any martial arts or wrestling before, so I wasn't sure how either of us would fair. My daughter loves her coaches and they really do a great job of keeping things fun yet disciplined and engaging. They all genuinely care about their students. They make sure everyone is safe and working together in a controlled way. Coach Jen and Coach Kat started her off with Wee Warriors and the basic skills. She has been able to move up and promote into the more advanced classes with Coach Kari and Coach Eli. She also loves helping with the younger kids whenever she can with Coach (and owner) Karen, Coach Eli, or Coach Jen. It's nice that all of the coaches generally work together and help eachother, and there are many other coaches that I am sure I am neglecting to mention who have contributed to my daughter's progress. The lessons are consistent no matter who is leading the class, and generally build on the previous lessons or review skills already taught. Plenty of private and small group lessons available as well for extra training if desired. The more my daughter participates and engages with her coaches, friends, training partners, and other competitors, the more she enjoys being at Genesis Jiu Jitsu. She genuinely looks forward to it and misses it when she can't go. Come on in and join the Genesis family!

Was ready to get back to cardio and strength. My nutrition is on point, so I don't need that, but they do offer help with that here if you need it. They also have an in-house massage therapist. The owner, Nico, is great. Very thorough on everything from what the workouts are to the membership options. He was the coach for my first class. He's high energy and pays attention to every detail. Want to go some where you're not just a face, but on a first name basis with everyone? This is it. Really good energy, excellent workout. The first half of the workout is circuit training strength, offering no weights/light weights/heavy weight options at every station. Second half is on the floor length and tear drop bags. Was pretty gassed by 3/4 of the way through. Looking forward to making this my fitness home for a while.

Stoic Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has been an absolute game-changer for our family. Both of my daughters…read morehave trained here for years, and the growth we've seen in them extends far beyond self-defense. The coaches at Stoic don't just teach Jiu-Jitsu--they instill confidence, discipline, and resilience in every student. From day one, the environment has been welcoming, supportive, and structured to help students of all skill levels succeed. My daughters have gained invaluable skills in focus, perseverance, and respect--qualities that translate into their daily lives at school and beyond. The instructors genuinely care about their students, pushing them to be their best while ensuring they feel safe and encouraged. If you're looking for a place that teaches more than just technique--where your child will build character, strength, and self-confidence--Stoic BJJ is the place to be. I can't recommend them highly enough!
