Growing Gorillas (kids class) at Straight Blast Gym (SBG)
RJ M.

Straight Blast Gym has been a life changing decision for not only myself but my family. My son has been training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for a little over 2 years now. The confidence he has developed from being a member of the SBG Tribe has shown in all facets of life; inside and outside of the gym. As a parent, you want to see character building take place in your child. It starts with the Head Coach/Founder, Phillipe Gentry and the staff he has cultivated. From when you first walk into the facility to beginning your class/training and upon exiting, the SBG staff are welcoming and positive! Classes are structured to help students develop confidence, discipline, teamwork, etc. Everyone is a member of the Tribe! In addition to the great atmosphere, they have a fully developed complimentary app that allows you to see your account, view the upcoming class schedule, check into classes or seminars, track your attendance, look at past purchases, etc. Its value added and helpful for parents and athletes. I strongly encourage you to checkout Straight Blast Gym!

My 8 year old daughter joined their Brazilian Jiu Jitsu class about a month ago and has loved every single minute of this class. From the amazing instructions provided by Coach Sean is a miracle worker as he teaches kids of all ages the fundamentals of the sport, as well as keeps all the kids engaged and wanting to be there. From the moment we walked into the facility to the time we leave (after class), the kids (especially mine) is so pumped up and can't wait until her next session. She gets home after her classes and practices her moves, so that she can get better. The mindset that the gym has is also unusual. Like most martial arts places, they charge you for your child to 'belt up'. Here, the kids earn their belts, and there is no additional charges accessed to the parents for these ceremonies. They also recognize kids who do well in their personal lives, such as their achievements in school, and even feature them up on their 'spot light boards'. The staff has a very good mindset and caring for all those who walk through that door. they go out of their way to be helpful, and every staff member is knowledable with the trade as well as the business. They have an amazing rewards program which can lead to awards for the kids, such as refreshments up to new Gi's, all the way up to cruises!) Overall, Jim and Phillipe have made this gym amazing, and by hiring Coach Sean, we are beyond pleased with the way that they are helping to shape our daughter. On a side note. Another great thing I love about this gym is that you need to "Earn" your belt. it is not awarded through time, but through skill. Something you don't really see very often anymore. As it is said "One Tribe, One Vibe".

Prior to SBG, I had never done CrossFit before, so I came with no foundation. The coaches and CrossFit community at SBG take you as you are and accept every member regardless of ability level. I appreciate the fact that all WODS can be scaled or modified for each member to experience success and see progress. SBG coaches are well versed in form and assist in teaching form to ensure that injuries are prevented. SBG is the place to be to do CrossFit right!!!

Does any one the price for drop in or consultation?

There's no price to go in and see the gym.. The gym membership fees vary based upon which programs you sign up for, etc.

Anyone know the membership price ? do they have like a family membership like LAfitness?

Don't know how la fitness works, however they have discounts for additional family members. 1st full price, 2nd 25%off, 3rd 50% off and 4th is free

A great and fun place to learn Taekwondo.. The whole staff is great.. Master Miron, Master Barjon,…read moreand the black belts make learning the martial art a fun experience, all the while maintaining and instilling discipline, responsibility in the kids. Been coming here for a year now and the popularity of this place shows as the number of kids in the classes have also increased.

STAY AWAY. MY BIGGEST MISTAKE YET. Easy to sign up but IMPOSSIBLE TO QUIT. Think Planet Fitness but…read moreon steroids and you might have to sacrifice your first born to get them to stop charging you. Oh and change your bank account and cancel your credit card too. They scarred my 3 year old by chasing him while slapping the ground to make loud claps to try and get him to go faster. He was the slowest in the class because he was the YOUNGEST AND SMALLEST. He literally immediately stopped in his tracks and from that moment on hated every second and cried anytime "karate" was mentioned. Every time I would bring him it felt like I was torturing him because he had legit fear and I could see it in his eyes. When I said I was canceling his they said they understood and it was fine but then continued to charge me. Master Miron said he would reimburse and make sure it was canceled but never did. Then my oldest wanted to stop because his brother wasn't doing it with him and I wasn't about to force a 4 year old to do something he truly didn't want to do. When I told them I wanted to cancel both o was suddenly told "oh, you actually signed the 12 month agreement and are obligated to pay for the whole year." EXCUSE ME?! they have my signature on a piece of paper that I was falsely informed of while they took advantage of me having an 18 month old with me as well, always busy and never able to sit and talk about any contract. Never in a million years would I sign a 3 and 4 year old up for a 12 month contracted class. THEY ARE THE WORST. ONLY SEND YOUR ENEMIES HERE.
