I've been looking for a place like this for my kids! I have a 10-year-old daughter and a…read more13-year-old boy who eagerly need more physical fitness in their life. I was looking for some type of martial arts besides karate so I tried this spot out. Right right away they gave me one week of Jujitsu and MMA classes for free. After the first day my children were hooked! I was surprised to see so many families and adults participating here because it is located in the Omni fitness gym. At first it was a little hard to find but as soon as I walked in the door I knew exactly where to go because of the boxing ring, octagon, stand up punching bags and matted floor that took half of the facility. The staff is amazing! The couple that are the main instructors are very good with children and they maintain a high level of discipline. They have other assistant instructors that help out and who look to be in very good shape and are in the amateur fighting business. They have boxing classes, kickboxing classes mixed martial arts, jujitsu and other classes for both kids and adults. Both of my children signed up for one month of MMA and jujitsu twice a week from 5-630 pm for $190. I thought this was an unbelievable deal and my kids are absolutely worn out and hungry at the end. I so glad I found this place.

My kids look forward to coming to MMA always! The Beaufort MMA Senseis' abilities to build children up with confidence has worked wonders on my middle son who went from shying away from every situation and being timid to a child filled enough with confidence in himself that he willing engages and participates in tasks with others in all aspects of his life. My two sons went from being bullied and unsure of people and situations to being confident in making good choices to stand up for themselves and others to deescalate situations in the least confrontational way.

Foundry Gymnastics Review - AVOID This Gym at All Costs! I…read morecannot stress this enough--do not send your child to Foundry Gymnastics. My experience with them was a complete disaster, and I want to save other parents from making the same mistake. Here's why you should stay as far away from this gym as possible: 1. Unqualified Coaches Before you even think about enrolling your child, take the time to watch the classes. The coaches at Foundry Gymnastics are incredibly inexperienced, often chosen from the parents sitting in the gym, rather than based on actual qualifications. When my daughter was on the pre-team, the coaching was inconsistent, unstructured, and clearly lacked knowledge. Instead of qualified professionals leading the kids, we saw teenage girls who were barely qualified to run a class. 2. Dangerous Gym Conditions The conditions at Foundry are downright appalling. The equipment is unsafe--the spring floors have rusty nails literally poking through them, and the mats are filthy. It's shocking that the gym hasn't taken any real steps to address these issues, especially considering the potential risks to the children's safety. 3. Misleading Promises of Coaching My daughter was on the pre-team for a year and was eventually promoted to the competition team. We were led to believe that she would get more one-on-one coaching from the head coach--but that couldn't have been further from the truth. The head coach was hardly ever there, and when she was, she barely offered any constructive coaching. Everything the girls learned in pre-team had to be re-taught, as the skills were not properly taught in the first place. 4. Toxic Coaching Environment The real nightmare came with the competition team. The head coach's behavior is appalling. Instead of nurturing the kids and providing constructive feedback, she resorts to yelling and belittling the gymnasts. The kids often ended up cryingand feeling worthless because of her harsh and abusive approach. She would scream at them, telling them they weren't good enough to compete and threaten to pull them from the team without offering any real coaching or guidance. It was emotionally damaging to the kids. 5. Poor Management & Lack of Accountability When I raised my concerns to the gym manager and the head coach, I was essentially told that the head coach didn't want to work with the level 3 girls because of parental issues--basically, she didn't want to be challenged by concerned parents. Instead of addressing the coaching problems, I was told to keep the parents off her back. The owner was also unprofessional about financial matters--I paid all the competition fees on time, and the gym owner held my check for over a month. When I requested a refund for the fees I'd paid, the owner only offered me credit towards another class at the gym, which was completely unacceptable given the situation. 6. High Turnover & Toxic Culture The competition team is tiny--and there's a reason for that. Most of the kids either leave or quit due to the lack of proper coaching and the toxic environment. The gym claims to have a "No Bully Zone," but that's a complete joke. The real bullying is coming from the head coach, who fosters a hostile, unhealthy environment where the kids feel worthless and unappreciated. Conclusion: Save Your Money & Time If you care about your child's well-being, DO NOT send them to Foundry Gymnastics. The dangerous gym conditions, incompetent coaching staff, and toxic environment are not worth the money or emotional toll. I've removed my daughter from this gym, and I regret ever enrolling her there. Please, do yourself and your child a favor--look for a gym that actually cares about its athletes and creates a positive, safe, and supportive environment. Foundry Gymnastics is anything but that.

I always bring a piece of paper to a wrestling match, just in case…read more.. The Rock is my opponent. I never want to have to take my daughter anywhere else for Wrestling/martial arts. Family owned and ran business and they are great people. Great customer service, quick response times and the coach is soooo knowledgeable. I bet he could come with a new move everyday of the week. What I want to know is how did they end up with nice students too? This is not Cobra Kai, the other students/attendees actually try to help new kids and people that know less technique than them to be better. If I have to move away to a new place to live I will need some of you to help me beat up the owner/coach and put him in my trunk to take with me. DONT JUDGE ME, just help me take him with me and just add that to your resume. Awesome school and I love bringing my daughter here.

Plus, we are all about raising strong, confident ladies, so what better way than to learn what strength you have and how to use it? I know nothing about wrestling. I usually come to watch my toddler and my husband wrestle it out. Coach (and his family) have been awesome in allowing our young one get comfortable on the mat to work on her confidence, and eventually some sense of technique follows. We just started Brazilian Jiu Jistu here as well. Coach's teenage daughter has been very patient and helpful in teaching my daughter various concepts and moves. My kid may not be mastering any moves just yet, but she always goes home with the knowledge of both wrestling and BJJ, explaining what Coach did or showed her, or what my husband practiced with her. This is a family run business by a very dedicated family. That alone is a win. All of them have a role at the studio, whether it's teaching a class, taking a class, or welcoming folks to the studio.

He's an awesome instructor and knows how to run a business. He supports the community from law enforcement to women's defense, to fund raisers supporting the military. As with any business that has a monthly membership, it's assumed you're attending unless you cancel your membership in person. Even Planet Fitness requires you to cancel in person. Instruction-wise, he's had a number of students go on to win first place at the many competitions he requires his students to attend before being promoted to a new belt. You don't have to compete at all of the competitions, but you do need to compete at one. I'm good with this because a competition is the only place a fighter can fight a total stranger, which is usually the main reason a person wants to get into a self defense class in the first place. He teaches legitimate self-defense. This isn't an after-school self esteem building school for your kid. Whether you're a child or an adult, you're going to be fighting each other and learning how to put knuckles on foreheads.

He showed me to the powerlifting room which had all kinds of bars, power bars, competition bench, Thompson fat pads, platforms, and rogue power racks (and chalk!). The gym was clean, had great machines selections (always excited to see a belt squat). Would 100% recommend this gym to anyone looking. Wish I had this gym near my own home town!
