    This is more than just a gym, this is a real family environment. Great facility and instructors…read more Hodi is world class! Highly recommend

    ROOTS COMBAT CLUB is simply incredible! From the moment my son and I walked in for the open mat…read moreclass, we were blown away. The facility is spotless and has such a cool, welcoming vibe. The owner, Alex, and the members were so friendly and made us feel right at home. They gave us a tour and explained everything they offer, from kids' classes to adults'. My son had the chance to try the open mat class, and he loved every second of it! We met several of the trainers, and each one was approachable and answered all of his questions with ease. This place treats you more like family than just another gym member, which made the experience that much more special. The best part? The first visit to ROOTS COMBAT CLUB was FREE! It allowed my son to get a feel for the environment before deciding to join, and now he can't wait to become part of the club. I'll even be taking a class while my son is in his, which is a huge bonus for working parents trying to fit in a workout. The cost of classes was very reasonable compared to most gyms in our area. If you're searching for a clean, welcoming, and family-friendly environment where both you and your child can learn self-defense and stay in shape, ROOTS COMBAT CLUB is where it's at. Highly recommend--this place is the real deal! You won't regret it!

    Birmingham Martial Arts was doing one hour sessions at Shain Park in Downtown Birmingham during the…read moresummer of 2020, so we checked it out. The manager came right over and introduced herself and our son joined the session. She was friendly and she informed us about the outdoor classes due to COVID-19 and we signed our son up on the spot. After about four sessions I noticed that our son was spending an accumulated forty-five minutes waiting in line to do the movements that the instructors were having him do. For $110 per month I was hoping for him to be much more active. The pillars listed on their website are self-esteem, discipline, focus, respect, & fitness. There wasn't enough activity for them to hit the pillar of fitness. So, we canceled the membership. They had too many kids and not enough instructors. They did other things like playing dodgeball and carrying punching bags to and from a marker, which were good activities, but I can't get over the lack of activity for most of the sixty-minute sessions. The owner had a group of teenagers and he was doing synchronized kicks and punches with them during these one hour sessions and that looked awesome. But, the kids in my son's group were getting the shaft. I understand the importance of teaching good technique, which the instructors were doing well, but if you have young kids who have trouble doing jumping jacks with good form then it is likely that they won't be able to do kicks and punches with good form. It would have been much better to have them do five-minute routines that included various movements like punches, kicks, squats, burpees, push-ups, lunges, etc. I gave three stars because the manager was kind and personable and the instruction was good and they refunded us the $110 for the next month after we had cancelled during the previous month. But, for my money I would rather have my son do something where he is almost constantly moving.

Tony is fantastic and very patient with the students. He makes the classes both fun and challenging. The class is also a great cardio work out for our active boys, and at the same time teaches respect and discipline. We highly recommend BMA!
