Training at Rigoro Gym has been incredible. Ricky is a great coach who cares about form and technique. Iāve taken various levels of kickboxing classes at many gyms but Rigoro is truly unique and not even in the same league as any other kickboxing class in the area. For starters, Ricky is a champion kickboxer and prides himself in producing fighters of excellence. As a non-professional in this sport Iām in awe of the results he achieves with his fighting team.

Ā Ā Ā Read moreIāve been training with the Gojani brothers who run the Jiu Jitsu program since 2016. They are of the highest level as practitioners/ competitors and as coaches. The word āprofessorā gets thrown around a lot in this art by people who are never present, who have their upper belts hold class and who show their students a collection of random moves whenever they happen to show up.

They pay close and individual attention to everyone in the room and want to raise everyones level. Their students crowd the podiums in every tournament they enter. Their white belts smash blue belts and their blue belts are terrors. No matter your goalā¦competition, self defense or just having a healthy hobby they will make your Jiu jitsu razor sharp. Go to a free trial class and see their quality...
