There is always so much anxiety when you have to choose a place or person to tend to your child. It…read moreis a task I never like to do as a parent but when it was time to decide on a new after school program for our two boys--Guardian made the decision easy. I sent an email through their site just to ask some general questions and received a reply super fast. Then I decided to call and realized it was during a class time so I hung up without leaving a message. I was so surprised to still get a return call to see if my needs were met. Every time I had a question that I sent by email, I received a response. Finally decided I needed to see it for myself and during my initial visit one of the children came right up to me and told me, "I think you will like this place." That child was right! My boys have been attending now for about a month and they can't stop talking about it. They are 10 years old and 6 years old. They are learning respect and discipline without experiencing a military style boot camp. They get so much physical activity but yet time to just be a kid. I feel bad that I made them endure in another program (ESP) for the last year instead of finding Guardian sooner. It is like having a new little family. The kids quickly made friends and are learning the expectations of the classes. The Professors, Coaches and staff are super engaging and helpful. When my kids are happy and safe, it makes me feel secure that have chosen well. Thanks Guardian for all you do!

When I moved here, I tried different Muay Thai gyms but they were lacking. One training partner…read moretold me about a place with authentic Muay Thai, taught by a fantastic instructor. I tried Chonburi Muay Thai and that was nearly five years ago; I have been with Bruce since! Bruce is from Thailand, raised amongst the true Muay Thai culture and he remains loyal to those roots. Class is fun, challenging, and supportive. Students are proficient at varying levels and this helps all of us to both learn and teach, simultaneously. Additionally, this fosters a cohesion with the students and the atmosphere is more familial in feel. As a female, I have always found Muay Thai to be empowering and my skills have been much improved since training with Bruce. This has fostered a confidence that is priceless. I really urge you to try out Chonburi. The first class is free so there is absolutely nothing to lose!

As someone who's been around gyms in Middle TN for over 6 years now this is the best and MOST…read moreauthentic Muay Thai gym in Nashville let alone all of TN. Very friendly environment and a big facility to learn in. I recommend training with Kru Bruce to any adults and children wanting to learn, from beginners to advanced practitioners! My first time there I was immediately impressed with the gym and Bruces methods of teaching a beginner like myself. Kids classes are usually held in the front half of the gym. I highly recommend bringing your little ones to learn Muay Thai, as it's not only proven to help with physical health but improves psychological well being in young children as well. Learning to have confidence and to be independent in decision making but also learning team work along the way. 10/10 will not be training anywhere else as long as CMT is here!

I'd like to preface this review with the fact that the gym has moved from the Broad St location to…read more1400B West College St, but I digress. There are a couple things about this gym that makes this unique compared to the other BJJ gyms in the area. We take a no nonsense approach to BJJ in the fact that we really put an emphasis on BJJ that works in self defense. Many of the schools around the area train for competition, but when it comes to competition, our gym's characteristics really manifest itself in competition. But the biggest reason why I'd give this gym 5 out of 5 is due to the fact that coach really cares for each of the students. He takes the time to make sure that we get each technique before moving on. Because of his coaching style, a mini community developed within the gym that really welcomes new practitioners and veterans alike. So if you're looking for a gym that provides a sense of community give us a try!
