SBG is awesome! I came in with no experience, a little nervous of what to expect. Muay Thai classes has been addicting. Michael and Jesse are awesome coaches. It has been an awesome experience and has helped build a passion for martial arts. Thanks SBG Idaho.

A very great place to train. The trainers are very helpful and hospitable and I learned a lot in each lesson. They have a straightforward and easy to understand method of teaching and everyone wants everyone else to get better. Definitely recommend!

Top notch instruction and great training partners at the fundamental and advanced competitor level.My background is in boxing, but personal schedule only allowed for morning. So I did 7AM Jiujitsu, and Monday PM Judo. Absolutely loved it. And days I feel like boxing, I'd treat myself to the 8:00 AM class with legit boxing trainers.Train for competition, just some sparring, or to meet personal fitness goals: Combat Fitness is a friendly, welcoming environment for all to learn, grow and improve physically and mentally. Great for kids too.Sadly, I took a job requiring relocation to a larger city - yet had no SBG academy, and absolutely NO acceptable substitutes.Privelage to train here, and most importantly outstanding people, both staff and members alike. Definitely will stop by for training sessions and to see friends when I visit Boise.

I had the opportunity to train today at combat fitness SBG and the coaches and students are amazing. They have people at all levels and are extremely welcoming to people dropping in. If you are new and looking for a place to start they have instructors and classes for all levels. The class was well taught and structured. At the end of class there's an opportunity to roll live. Looking forward to coming back. Thanks again to everyone there..Chrismagicphotography

Great professional martial arts training facility. I trained here for over a year and my experience was exceptional. I could easily see my skill level increasing every week by the nature of their training method. I read some negative reviews towards Jesse but for sure those are fake accounts. Jesse did my consultation too and the first person I met at combat fitness and he was truly down to earth guy. Although I never trained with him but he still said hello every time I saw him. Nobody in the gym, the trainers or the people who come to practice are rude. Fees can be slightly expensive but I guess that goes for all martial arts gyms around here. Highly recommend.

The staff and facility at Combat Fitness Boise are great! I am new to the world of MMA and Matt was very helpful and informative as he took me through my free one on one session. I signed up for the basic package and have been doing the Fight Fit classes and Brazilian Ju Jitsu.Both Jesse and Brad have been super encouraging and helpful as this is all new for me. Fight Fit is a fun new way to get in a killer workout.Great place with great people!

I began training at CF in August of 2015. Coming in I had no wrestling or martial arts background, I was a gym rat that trained at the big name gyms in town. I was finally sick of seeing the fashion show and egos that come with those places. Walking into CF for the first time was a bit intimidating, I had checked out other MMA\BJJ gyms in town and didn’t feel like I fit in at those places. CF was different, I recognized people from different places I hung out and was immediately greeted and everyone made sure I knew where to go and who to talk to. I had an interest in Jiu-Jitsu and took my first class with Coach Jesse. I’m a bigger and slower guy so I didn’t know how this was going to workout. The group classes are a broad lesson of techniques, but as you work through the drills, the coaches adjusted techniques for my body type and fight style. I was immediately hooked. After a while I added Striking with Coach Mike Ransom and More BJJ with Coach Brad. Everything about this gym is great, especially the coaches, but the best part is No Egos. Everyone supports each other and wants to see progression. Combat Fitness is top notch.

I have been looking for a good gym to train different fighting styles in for a while now and have recently found Combat Fitness. The first time I came in I was skeptical, just like every other gym I've checked out. Once I watched some classes and got to know some of the people who attend and work there, I was feeling more and more confident that combat fitness was the place I wanted to train.

I'm in Boise traveling and I rolled into Combat Fitness. Easily accessible by you Travelers in Tech choosing the downtown corridor. This place is in a great spot off Americana Ave (great coincidence???) Anyways, a fighter in training quickly stopped by the entrance and greated me with a great attitude considering this walk-in wanderer just parked the bike and popped in. Brad and Matt did a great job in my one-one session we scheduled before signing/paying for anything. They wanted a feel for my BJJ level, even loaned me a Gi and showed up first thing Monday morning to walk me through the process. I'm signed up and training and addicted again...

From the first visit I could tell that the staff was highly knowledgeable in their fields of expertise. I was greeted by Brad (jiu-jitsu coach), he was very friendly, and gave my daughter and I a quick, but fun training session. The coaches seem very patient with their students. I cannot wait to continue my training.
