I've been to just about every MMA/Boxing gym within a two mile radius of Center City and Fight Firm is hands-down the best MMA training facility in Philadelphia. It is the real thing. I have been a member for two months now. My favorite class is boxing fundamentals class with Alby (sp?). It is a workout AND a learning experience. Devon, who is actually an accomplished MMA fighter, teaches Muay Thai and he makes training in a violent sport FUN. I like that it is a beginner-friendly gym. At first I was hesitant that I would have to fight someone the first week but I was quickly put at ease. I never have to actually fight someone but if I am confident that I will can kick someone's a$$ if I ever needed to defend myself.
If you are looking for a nice polished gym like LA Fitness, then Fight Firm probably isn't going to be the place for you. They are not a "commercial" gym and do not pretend to be. I strongly recommend Fight Firm for anyone serious about getting in shape, learning how to fight, or both.
Joining Fight Firm as a novice to the sport of MMA, I did not know what to expect. Immediately, I was treated with respect and given straight forward advice. I signed up for both 1 on 1 training sessions as well as the group classes- not only did I learn a tremendous amount in a short period of time, I also did so while having the best workouts of my life! Devon and Al-B are great instructors who truly care about their students and are vested in their success. They do a great job of integrating different talent levels during the class so that everyone is put in a position to improve.
Whether you're a pro fighter, starting out, or trying to get back in shape- I highly recommend Fight Firm
The instruction at FF is excellent. Classes are technical and the workouts are great. Devon is an excellent resource for striking and jiujitsu. Highly recommended!
Tried this place out last winter. I thought this was a really good gym and I felt a spirit of camaraderie in the air which was really nice. I got the impression this gym holds a great community of men and women. I just felt unconformable with the coach/teacher in the session during my trial; felt somewhat judged the entire time so didn't really come back. Despite this, I would definitely still recommend! Just not for me
The greatest gym you will ever step foot in. I literally never rate or review anything but this is far more than worth it. Words cant do it justice. Come in and see what I'm talking about. Fun environment, serious workouts! It doesn't get any better. Fight firm is a Home away from home.
This gym allows you to develop as a fighter by exposing you to various forms of martial arts. Should definitely check it out, especially if you want to compete.
Have been training here for about a year and a half. The gym isn't too crowded so the instruction is more personal. Great atmosphere with great coaches.
Fight Firm is the best gym in Philly to learn how to actually fight. Coaches who really care and support you even if you're just there for a workout! There is a real community atmosphere. Hard to find a place better than this if you're a girl trying to train!
