Best martial arts gym I’ve ever been a part of. Excellent facilities, equipment, classes, and atmosphere; the best part of this gym, however, is the coaching staff. Their experience & knowledge combined with their attentiveness to the students is what makes this gym special.

If you want to start training jiu jitsu in a fun atmosphere this is your gym. You get out what you put in so whether you’re trying to build muscle, burn fat, or be the next polarizing black belt this is where you make that happen.

Coming from a traditional martial arts background, I was excited to hear Wu Tang blasting when I showed up!!! I came in for a trial session, a sparring night. Great mix of levels. Great muy thai teacher. Great vibe.

I came into this gym November 2018 and it's become a second home. I've never met such patient, motivating, and passionate coaches.A little background about me: I came from another gym I wont mention, where the atmosphere was very toxic and unwelcoming towards female. The type of mentality that unless you were doing cardio, get out of the way of the weight lifting gym bros.Coming from this background, I was super nervous to go to a new gym, especially one that focused on Combat. My very first visit, Mat, one of the Muay Thai instructors was very welcoming and extremely patient. I've been hooked ever since, and now take both the Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes. As a female, the instructors' number one priority is to make us feel welcomed and anything otherwise is never tolerated.Not only are the instructors amazing, but the members here are also awesome! They've become family to me. No male has ever made me uncomfortable in Muay Thai or Jiu Jitsu.Monday's Evening Women's Muay Thai class with Kru James is such an awesome, welcoming group, that really pushes me physically. I NEVER want to miss a class! Tuesdays 6:00-7:00 Muay Thai Fundamental class is great refresher of the basics and its always exciting to see new people attend.A new awesome addition is Sunday's Women Open Mat. As a female new to jiu jitsu, this has been an awesome class that pushes me and gets me more and more comfortable rolling around with other sweaty people. Another bonus is meeting some amazing, savage women that train from other gyms. Sunday and Mondays have become my women's gathering.The gym also offers a wide arrange of weight training equipment, cardio machines and classes are offered in the morning, afternoon and evenings, to fit every schedule.To put it simply: I LOVE THIS PLACE

Absolutely the best gym in Boston. You will be coming to the right place no matter what kind of training you are aiming for, be it competitive or just casual. Two years later, I have followed the competitors path and have been nurtured. The coaching staff is absolutely fantastic you will get world class training here, they pick up on your flaws promptly, and they make you feel welcome and at home very quickly. They are all extremely qualified having competed professionally at certain times in their lives. The people who come here are also spectacular, very helpful and kind, no malicious intent while sparring. Easily the best gym in Boston. On top of that, the gym is like a family, the environment fostered is very much a home. You can't go wrong here.

You cant go wrong coming to this gym, as it will leave a lasting impression on you. The atmosphere, teachers, and students are all great factors of this gym. There are people always willing to work with you and help you out, so there is never the feeling of being left out. You will learn a lot from the teachers who always go out their to help you perfect your technique, which can later be used in competitions or real world situations. Overall the sense of family is strong here, so if you got the time come and check this gym out.

This is a very good gym with excellent coaches and excellent classes. All of the instructors are very knowledgeable and helpful to beginners and more experienced competitors alike. The rates are very reasonable and they allow you to pay by the class if you want. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
