Called Larry on the phone and was given a warm welcome to stop by and train. Stopped by for their 5:30pm adult BJJ class which was proceeded by their kids class. You know it's going to be amazing when you have a swarm of happy and excited kids. When Larry showed up, the kids gave swarmed him and gave him hugs and high fives. Clear and concise instructions by coach Larry, he was patient, funny and unpretentious. Down to earth and amazing happy vibes all around. Every academy should strive to be like this place. The members are warm, welcoming and patient with my newbie white belt self. No one was grinding for a submission, and just rolling to be better. I felt safe and learned a lot! Out of town travelers, Be aware the Florida humidity is rough. 90min will feel longer , this is why their members are all beast modes. Remember to hydrate! Highly recommended, and the hype is real! Don't cheat your self and give this place a shot!

I tried a few gyms in town over the years, and they were a lot of the same big egos , and hostile rolls turning me away from the sport. That is certainly not the case here. Coach Larry, Bill, Martin , Yvonne and the rest of the FOYA fam have been nothing but welcoming and have made me feel right at home after such a short time. If you're a lifelong practitioner , or new to the world FOYA is the place for you.

Ancient City Martial Arts and the Training Loft

On the day I drove by, there wasn't much in the way of signage on the building, so I missed it at first. When I walked in, I met Megan, who was kind enough to give me a rundown. Roughly half the building is dedicated to martial arts practice like Muay Thai and Hapkido. The other half is dedicated to your standard gym equipment - weights, kettlebells, bikes, and other machines. She even indulged me a few extra moments to check out their Peloton bike, which I had heard of but never seen. The training room was kept very clean, and the equipment appeared to be in good working order. They also have showers and a sauna on site. Megan explained that when you join, you do a start-up series of sessions, where you get a personalized assessment of where you are, and guidance on how to reach your goals. After that, you can sign up for sessions depending on how much personal attention you want, ranging from one-on-one, small groups (2-6), or a grab-and-go board session, where the trainer puts together a workout of the day for you. Obviously the more personal attention you want during your workout, the more money you'll spend. What I like about the Training Loft's gym concept is that it's actually NOT designed to draw in thousands of gym rats at a 24 hour, all-you-can-lift rate of $15/month. That's with no guidance whatsoever. Assuming you can even get a personal trainer, you're looking at $60/hour or more for individual attention. The packages at Training Loft actually come in at a very reasonable $35-$45/hour. In short, I enjoyed my brief visit to the Training Loft, and appreciated Megan's energy and willingness to share her passion.

Although I can only speak to the Fit Camp classes and the physical space, in the two months that I've been a member I've been super happy with the value I'm receiving for my monthly payment. It's a clean, well-organized, fully-stocked gym that allows members to utilize open gym time if they are unable to make Fit Camp class that day. You can find everything from battle ropes to pull-up rigs to squat racks to dumbbells to punching bags (and everything in between). The space is well thought-out and accommodates classes of 10-25 people on a regular basis. At this point, I've attended classes lead by all of the different coaches and every person has their own coaching style but are all ultimately helpful and energetic and attentive to individual needs and modifications during the programmed workouts. I also enjoy that I can track my progress using the Wodify app the gym utilizes for attendance and payment purposes. In sum, the gym is a great space with awesome staff and I've yet to meet another member I dislike. All-around good group and a great way to get (or stay) fit.

My daughter had a medical issue, and we provided all the necessary documentation that she wouldn't be able to continue. They told us verbally that the two-month notice requirement would be waived due to her health condition. However, they still charged us for two extra months and refused to refund the money, even though they had promised otherwise. In short, they care more about squeezing out every penny than being fair to their customers. I'm leaving this review to warn others: no matter what they promise you verbally, they may still take your money and ignore their own word. Be cautious before signing up here.
