I have been with Next Edge for the better part of a decade now. I can say a lot personally about the friendships that I have been blessed with being here but that would be a book of a review. The simple short of it; they are you. Moms, Dads, Sisters, Brothers, Nurses, Veterans, young, old, you name it. Respect, humility, laughter and amazing skill is what you'll find here. Be it grappling or striking, whether you want to have a new hobby or you want to be a top level competitor there is something for everyone. If you are curious, hesitant, or just plain nervous, I would say just take a breath, take that first step and give yourself a chance at something great. Every step through those doors has been someone's first.

Best martial arts gym around and probably the best value for any martial arts gym in the country. Bjj, Boxing, Muay Thai, and access to weights are included for the membership fee.Very clean. Meticulously clean as far as gyms go.They pressure test (roll live) in every bjj class. I have definitely improved in my skill since beginning lessons.I thought size was the most important factor in grappling, until at 200lbs a135lb blue belt tapped me 5 times in 2 minutes.If you're looking for a REAL WORLD martial art, THIS is the place.

I was there for a month, and from what I've saw in my travels as it always has been the fight game like any sport is dirty and if reviewed correctly we can all name moments where outcome were bought not legitimate. For a hobbiest the gym is nice, but for serious competing it's less then a joke. Just another scam gym that's way overpriced, and the owner when brought undeniable facts is quite unprofessional and will demean you and yell in front of his class to punctuate how immature a gym owner can act, so no class. Also will say he has all the credentials and behaviorally acts as he knows it all, but I don't see his name on a ufc title or ever won a world title in thailand where fighting is a way of life and in a career most thai have 150 or more pro fights before they retire, so the competition is much tougher there. Thank you have a great day but please don't let this average con man overcharge for monotone training that at most should be NO MORE then 60 dollars a month with the lack of attention given on progress.
