Just started there yesterday. I do BJJ and I was looking for a solid Muay Thai class to add striking to my repertoire. I go in and it was EXACTLY what I was looking for. The class with D'Juan went into more than drill after drill. It went into the technique. It went into the strategy. It went into the theory of WHY you do certain combos, what they set you up for, where they are weak, where they are strong, everything (even why some moves will be better suited for sport vs. self-defense and vice versa). The man is hands down the best striking instructor I have found to date.
I then stuck around Cody's No Gi grappling class. Again, very tactical in each application. I am still green around the ears when it comes to BJJ, and what he taught really exposed some areas I haven't even thought about before.
Both these guys have impressive fighting records (which you can look up). Long story short - they know there stuff. Better yet, they know how to teach it.
The students there are very humble and welcoming. They had no qualms walking me through the more complex motions. Really looking forward to getting to know everybody there.
The facility is clean. Zero funky smell (until class starts, in which you can't blame people for sweating). Which, let me tell you, is really nice - the cleanliness; not the sweating :)
Seriously, do yourself a favor and check this gym out. These guys are the bomb.
