    But, I dont think anyone can train for competition, unless you go personal, which is alot more money. Their main focus is just fitness, which happens to be using boxing techniques. There's a boxing class for 1 hour, but all they teach you is 1 2's, and it's run in a bootcamp style. So its 30 seconds of high knees, running in 1 place, etc. then maybe another 30 seconds of 1 '2 s, mixed in with combos.

    I dont think they do group sparring sessions, or pad work. I could be wrong, but it's not their focus. It's more of a fitness gym, and theres about 20 of them here in San Diego with the same setup. You can learn MMA here very easily though, gracie gyms everywhere.


    Here's a pic of a lower end place, their other facilities are alot more luxurious, its crazy. But its more of just a gym than learning a skill.


    D*mn, that's considered a "low-end MMA gym"?! If that's the case, then wtf does a high-end MMA gym look like.

    I've been a member of a high-end gym before. But, never a high-end MMA gym.

      actually, they looks more like a high end gym to me...most the gyms i've been to consist of a big room with mats under it, mirrors on the wall for shadowboxing, and maybe a rack of 8-10 heavebags with shelves full of pads and ****.

      unless in Cali that's what all the low end gyms look like...****, if that's the case i really wanna see a high end gym too haha
