Martial Arts

Love Reaction MMA. Great coaching. Great environment. Too much fun. Always something to learn. Always a challenge. Check it out. I travel a bit. When I travel, I train at other gyms which also gives me a means for comparison. I'm convinced that Reaction MMA is the best overall that I have seen. I'm fortunate that this is my home gym. The training is excellent. Taught from a self defense perspective as opposed to a tournament perspective. Sound. Methodical. Professor Rob systematically teaches the art, rotating through the basics in a year. He will tailor the classes to the level of the students present. He coaches important details. And, he preaches the importance of repetition to perfect the techniques. Professor Rob even created specific classes that are short sessions available for strict drilling of the most fundamental techniques. Making sure that we have the opportunity to get the reps that we need for sound development. Additionally, Professor Rob is almost always available and open for questions. It is rare that he isn't at the gym. And side coaching is a regular thing from the upper level belts as well as Rob. Reaction MMA is a very welcoming environment. Professor Rob works to know everyone and coach everyone on an individual basis. It is a family friendly environment. I even have several children that are regularly taking classes. The whole team works together to be better. Bad attitudes aren't tolerated. You can't have students that are so focused on themselves that they are willing to sacrifice their teammates. Over-aggressive behavior is addressed quickly. While money is important to any business, it is not the focus of Professor Rob. You won't get a better value. You don't get nickel and dimed for everything. No required patch or gi purchases. No payments for belt promotions. Special pricing is available for the first month to help the individual determine if they want to make a longer term commitment. Professor Rob wants to make sure that the right people are choosing the right gym culture for the right reasons. And this is a martial art that requires a significant commitment for mastery. Special pricing is also available for families. This gym is not a belt factory. Progression is an individual journey established between coach and participant. There is no list of check boxes. If you are looking for a gym that will move you along to progressive belts along a specified path as long as you pay, this gym won't work for you. The belt factory format works well for gyms that care more about dangling the next belt to keep their students paying to progress. Advancement is an individual journey for everyone. Attendance of and payment for seminars is not a requirement for advancement. Seminars addressing specific techniques are occasionally offered by Professor Rob or visiting Professors. While not required, these seminars are helpful for advancement because the individual can get direct coaching and significant repetitions . Rob's pricing for his seminars seems to be much less than others. Winning or participation in tournaments also is not a requirement for advancement. Participation in tournaments does offer significant experience for the individual which may contribute to advancement. Not every gym is the same. And I'm sure that we all have our own preferences. But Reaction MMA is truly a great place for my family and me.

Started at the first of the year and haven’t regretted a single moment spent here. Outstanding staff and very welcoming environment.

There is not there

Bagua is a very powerful martial art and Shifu Greg Hatza is really good at teaching it
