Update: the fact that Abby shared my minor son's birthday on here (which is a public forum) in a response to my previous review, proves my point that this business has zero respect or concern for minors. That seems very exploitative to me. My son as of this writing, is still a minor. So now you know, they will share your and your kid's private details with the world, so be careful what you share with them and what you sign. They also tried to follow me on social media after this review, which is scary. I deleted the original review to delete her response which contained my son's birthday.

Reply: You did not have to share his name. Anyone can find it with my name and it IS the private information of a minor. Also he drove himself because at 16 kids can drive. This does not make them adults or able to sign legal agreements. The credit card was my husband's. They have the same name...that should have been obvious. Kids usually do not have credit cards to their name. I doubt my husband ever called. If he did, it should have been a further clue that we were not on board or aware of what you had our son sign.

Original review: My son was allowed to create a membership at 16 without my consent. He ask it be for only 2 months. He was charged for two more months after he stopped attending. No business should allow minors to sign memberships without parent permission. It is predatory on the young and...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I started training here with my son back in 2020 when he was 9 years old, and it’s been one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. From day one, this gym has felt like family.

Cameron Gutierrez was instrumental in helping my son come out of his shell, build confidence, and develop real boxing skills. Coach Muhammad, the head boxing coach, is incredibly knowledgeable and motivating — the kind of coach who pushes you past your limits in the best possible way.

Coach Marcus Bello is a world-class BJJ competitor and easily one of the best instructors you’ll ever find. He’s amazing with kids, expects nothing less than your full effort, and somehow makes everyone better every single class.

Coach G is an outstanding kickboxing coach — kind, attentive, and focused on developing skilled, disciplined athletes. And Coach Brelynn is hands down the best fitness coach around. Whether you’re a beginner or a pro fighter, he knows exactly how to help you reach your potential.

The owners, Abby and Reed, have built something truly special here. Their passion and leadership make this gym a place where everyone — kids, adults, beginners, and competitors — can grow and thrive.

If you’re looking for a place that combines world-class instruction, community, and real...

Once your kids get used to an instructor, such as the 2 Olympians and All American they had for nearly 2 years... They get rid of them like yesterday's newspaper. I was warned about this prior to joining. Now I am very sorry. In one year I never saw an owner come to any youth wrestling tournament. My son competed in a local expert NAGA and his Bjj instructor never showed for the kids tournament... Only his adults later in the day. Thank God his wrestling coach helped out, but he was let go. I have seen much better BJJ. Alliance for one... Just YouTube search GFT v Alliance. The youth BJJ at Paradigm has been been below average and can not compete at high levels. Simply check the local tournaments.... Either they don't compete or can't compete at a high level consistently. The youth BJJ is a very small group and has not been able to get top kids or even average kids on any regular basis. Battle for the Ages tournament, an invite only prestigious tournament, was not even attended by my son's bjj instructor. Only the wrestling coach cared enough to go. Then the owners make comments when you leave... Like... We are all glad you are gone. I kept a snapshot of that to remind me.... THERE ARE FAR BETTER PLACES TO TRAIN. I FEEL I WASTED TIME AND MONEY...
