Deciding to join Pure Performance Fitness Center & do personal training with Jeremy Ferry has been…read moreone of the best, and most rewarding decisions I have ever made! Seriously...LIFE CHANGING! Jeremy Ferry isn't your standard trainer. He's the type of trainer you go to when you want results and you're ready to put the work in. He listens to your concerns, questions, and goals. He will challenge you, encourage you, support you, and most important, hold you accountable. To put it simply, he does everything he can to empower you to make your goals a reality! The personal training groups are small... usually no more than 6 people during a busy time, and on average about 2-3 people. It's not a cookie cutter workout where everyone does the same thing. He has each person doing their own unique workout, but in a group setting. The workouts are definitely challenging, but you will have fun doing them. The environment is positive and uplifting, and I always leave feeling better than when I came in. The people you work out with become friends. Everyone is incredibly friendly and helpful. We want to see each other succeed! We cheer each other on, celebrate the good times, and support each other during the rough days. This is the first gym I've found where it really does feel like a family. For those who are just looking for a membership at a gym, don't let the size of Pure Performance fool you, it is a clean facility, well maintained, safe, and you're helping support a local business! The doors stay locked, there are cameras in and out of the gym, and the parking lot is lit... so even if there alone I feel completely safe! The space has everything you need to get a complete, full body workout done whether you are wanting to do strength training, cardio, body weight, or mat exercises.

Paladin Combatives in Springfield, IL is not much to look at from the outside and is not real fancy…read moreinside, but it is a first-rate location to train and practice martial arts sports (MMA and/or BJJ) and for skill in martial arts for self-defense, i.e., what one could expect to in a verbal or actual physical confrontation out on " the street." I have trained in martial sports and martial arts for over 50 years, much of it with some excellent instructors. Those years of training allow me to judge martial arts instructors very critically with a low tolerance for McDojos and self-promoting phonies. On the basis of my experience, for those wanting to learn true "real-life" self-defense (and/or for those interested in "cage fighting" I highly recommend Nick Renfro of Paladin Combatives. Nick is a very good instructor who teaches and coaches martial sports such as BJJ and MMA and police instructor who teaches self-defense tactics for law enforcement personnel and civilians looking for ways to avoid confrontations when possible and handle when necessary to do so. Because of his wide range of knowledge and skill in martial sports and martial arts and the passion, patience, and pride in teaching he brings to the mat, I highly recommend Paladin Combatives as a place to learn, train, and practice all facets martial arts.
