If you want to get in shape...this is your place…read more I am legitimately terrified of the classes here, but I know with every fiber of my being that if I want to lose weight, feel great, and kick some ass, this is where to go. You can lose upwards of 500 calories a class and sometimes people tell me that and I look at them all skeptical...but there is no doubt here...at all. I can barely walk the three days afterwards. Just bought some pink gloves and wraps so I can go here on the regular! I'm getting in shape, y'all!

I am visiting from out of town this week and I needed a place to work out....b/c all I do is eat when I'm in Memphis. I just happened to find UFK online via martial arts search and I'm glad that I did. They just moved to a new location and the facility is very nice. I've been taking the kickboxing classes every day this week and...YES!! I'M SORE! The lactic acid buildup is fabulous. The bags that they use are muay thai bags - so they're VERY solid/hard....great for conditioning the shins (if you plan on using them as lethal weapons). Every class I've taken this week has been different - Tony and John shake things up, keep it interesting, keep you moving....and if you're not soaked by the end of class, you're slacking. They also do personal training and other martial arts. Highly recommended.

This will be a short review - primarily for the owner, Brooke…read more I live in Fort Lauderdale and was in search of a boxing gym. I was going to be in Memphis over the Christmas holidays and sent an email. Received a response from Brooke the same day encouraging me to drop in. Wanted to ensure that I created the proper approach, so I asked about the cost to attend a few drop-in classes while in town. She provided information on Bot's Boxing which operates from the same building at Memphis Judo. Brooke was very welcoming and instead of payment, asked for a review of their facility, instructors and the environment. My 5 Star rating speaks for itself, and i look forward to returning to the business when I'm in Memphis again.

It's a great price for several classes offered each week, plus you can attend classes at any of the 3 locations! I've attended the East and Bartlett locations, and both have been incredibly positive and motivating experiences. You are guaranteed to leave worn out but simultaneously energized! I used to say punching the bag was my favorite but overall it's the mindset behind pushing yourself past your 100% to reach new levels in physical and mental health! Get in here! Try it out!

Chad Chilcutt may be a decent Martial Artists, but his behavior towards women is severely lacking…read more He needs to understand that his treatment of women MAJORLY impacts the views towards his practice. We had our son enrolled for a short time but decided to end it due to (1) the teaching schedule not being consistent and (2) the instructors having zero knowledge on how to handle an Autistic child. I, the mother, made the call to terminate our contract. He wouldn't hear of it, kept dismissing everything I said with "let me talk to the man of the house and see what he says." Disgusting.

The techniques are not dependent on size, strength, or special physical ability - Krav Maga can be utilized by men and women of all ages. It is the most practical, fastest-growing self-defense system in the United States, used by hundreds of U.S. law enforcement agencies and military units, and practiced by thousands of adults across the country.
