Wave Combat Sports is a solid 5/5 experience. As soon as I arrived from out of town, I was welcomed and treated immediately as an insider. Coach Micah B is a world class coach that works with all levels of strikers from beginners to professional fighters. This gym is very clean and has several amenities like several heavy bags, a ring, on-site Physical Therapy, Strength and conditioning equipment, showers, and much more. I really appreciated how much control and mutual respect was shown by Coach Micah and all his students. This gym is world class.

Top notch facilities combined with top notch instruction = one of the best gyms in the Greater Seattle / Tacoma area. Micah Brown is super knowledgeable, and is passionate about sharing his knowledge with people across all skill levels. Whether you are a beginner, or seasoned fighter Micah has something for you. The culture there is great as well, everyone from instructors, to students are friendly and welcoming. You truly feel like part of the family the moment you step on the mat.

Wave combat sports IS the spot to go if you want to get better as a striker! Coach Micah Browns' program cuts out all of the unnecessary elements of training, and focuses on fundamentals/technique and builds your skill base up from there. Every class I’ve been to feels like a paid seminar worth of knowledge, and you can tell everything being taught has been methodically thought out and thoroughly structured. It has also been a blessing to be able to pick Micah’s brain during class, he’s obsessed with the sport and his understanding of striking dynamics is world class. The gym facility is huge and has all the equipment you need to train as well as a boxing ring in a central location. It is also split with a weight lifting gym called The Training Pit (if you ever want to add muscle growth or extra conditioning to your program). The gym community has been awesome; everyone is very chill, down to earth, and welcoming. While I have not tried the BJJ program, the instructor Rudy is a great guy, with a wealth of knowledge and it seems like they are all having a blast over on the Jiu Jitsu side. If you’re ever in the Tacoma area and curious about the gym, come swing by and trial a class 🌊👍
