Charleston Fit & Martial Arts is a great facility with very knowledgeable instructors who welcome you into their classes and run a very good program. A must for anyone looking for a good gym to start or continue their martial art or workout journeys. Highly recommend!!

I always have a fantastic experience at CMMA. I originally attended last year when the owners were kind enough to lend their space to my wrestling coach and our wrestling club. Since that time, even though I left for quite a while before my recent return, its always felt like home to me. The coaches are patient and dedicated to making sure you are 100% ready for whatever style you decide to train in, and even beyond sports will help you with things as simple as just getting in shape as they also offer a fitness class. I look forward to every class and look to start my amateur careers in boxing and MMA with Charleston Fit and MMA.

Everyone from the instructor to the students made it super easy to learn. I spent far too long thinking about joining a boxing class, don't make the same mistake. Dabble or immerse yourself in all the different fighting styles they have to offer. Nate, the boxing instructor, is knowledgeable and patient. Definitely helpful for anyone like me who has zero fighting or boxing experience.
