All of the coaches there from the jiu-jitsu coaches, boxing coach, Muay Thai coach they're all great and very helpful if you ask. I would highly recommend going here. It's $160 a month for unlimited classes. It's totally worth it in my opinion if you're a fan of mixed martial arts, gyms don't get much better than this. I really don't see what they could do much better than what they already have so John, good job, and I look forward to meeting you in the future.

I had a very disappointing experience with Ground Control. They increased the price unexpectedly…read moreand then charged me $179 for April even though I had already canceled my subscription on March 30. The training quality does not match the high fees they are charging. It feels unfair to bill students like this, especially when many of us are on tight budgets. Overall, this place feels like a trap -- easy to sign up, but very difficult to get out of without being charged extra. I would not recommend it to anyone looking for transparent pricing or quality training.
