This is an incredible space for martial arts training in Pittsburgh's Strip District. The instructors are all professional fighters and trainers and the environment is welcoming. I walked into my first jiu jitsu class alone and while it was intimidating, I felt fully supported and couldn't wait to go back again.

I was fortunate enough to be Pittsburgh and able to train at Stout PGH! I was visiting from the Renzo Gracie Academy in NYC. The staff and students welcomed me like I've been training there for years. The vibe of the academy was very upbeat and energetic. The instruction Logan Stout was spot on. It was very detailed focusing on the important points of the move/ series.

Professor Warren Stout was present and even rolled a few rounds with me. If you are passing through Pittsburgh or if you live in Pittsburgh I highly recommend you check out Stout PGH!

This gym has become a second home to me, and the friends I've made there have become a second family. If you want to challenge yourself with expert coaches and amazing teammates in a welcoming, healthy environment then look no further. There's nothing quite like Stout Training.

My home gym is in Canada, but I often find myself in Pittsburgh for business. Not wanting to skip my Muay Thai training while I was away, I contacted Stout to see if they would let me join in on a few classes while I was in town.

They did, and I'm super pleased I got the chance.

The trainers were super nice, and knowledgeable, they have tonnes of classes, and their facility is one of the nicest I've ever been in.

I will keep going back as long as they'll let me. Pittsburgh is lucky to have this gym.

Awesome gym. I was home visiting from San Francisco and wanted to keep up my training while there. Vince was very welcoming and didn't even charge me any drop-in fees for the classes I took. What gets more Pittsburgh than that? I can now consider this place home away from home gym from now on. Thanks guys.

New to BJJ, visited the gym while in Pittsburgh for the week. Great place, everyone is really friendly and very welcoming. Top notch instructors.
Thank you Logan Stout for the very thorough and detailed instruction, I already feel much improved after your classes

I came in from Texas for a wedding. I looked up some places to go for open mat. Renzo Gracie schools are always super repectable. I showed up for open mat. Warren Stout was very welcoming. No mat fee and super hospitable. Highly reccomend you train with these guys or just stop by if you are in Pittsburgh.

After talking to the guys running the place and getting a chance to participate in more advanced classes I have to say that it's not a bad place to train. The open mat sessions I participated in were full of tough opponents in many different shapes ,sizes and skill levels. Multiple classes a day and open seven days a week. I'm looking forward to getting back to it when I'm healed.

I stopped at their no-gi open mat, and got to roll with a ton of monsters. Everyone was awesome and super friendly. Great school, wish I had more time down there to train with them.

Spacious gym. Polite staff. Some members geared towards professional MMA bouts, and other competitions.

I like the place but for one thing. I've been practicing jiujitsu off and on for close to twenty years. I've gotten quite proficient in the art when I trained seriously. That takes time on the mat. Lot's of time. Time however seems to be something of mine being wasted because of a rule about three stripes on a belt before being allowed to participate in open mat sessions. For the money they want an hour a day of which most isn't serious training is unacceptable. I may be attending my last class tomorrow if they aren't willing to change this.

Stout Training Pittsburgh is a great place to learn Muay Thai. The instructors are very knowledgeable and experienced. I would highly recommend Stout to anyone interested in learning one of the best striking martial arts in the world.

I travel all over the US for work and this is one of the best gyms I've been to. Very good instruction and excellent group of grapplers.

I did Muay Thai here for close to a year while living in Pittsburgh. The head instructor, Kru Reese, is extremely knowledgable about the craft; you can tell he's been doing it his entire life. The other instructors, like Will M., are also very good. The classes are maintained at a solid pace - you'll never leave class feeling like you didn't get a workout.

To be honest, I did karate for a couple years before this in college, and couldn't throw an honest punch. Two months of Muay Thai made me more equipped to fight than 2 years of Karate.

On a personal note, 2017 - 2018 was a rough stretch for me, and coming here to train each week was something that I could look forward to every day. If not for this gym, I'd probably have become depressed. Really can't say enough about how Muay Thai can be life-changing and how good this crew is.

Thanks everyone

Great place to drop in and train. Good group of guys to roll with. Went to the fundamentals class, worked on some good habits and drilling.

From the effective, safe, and friendly instruction to the warm camaraderie atmosphere to the clean training environment, Stout offers a high quality and life changing opportunity to step outside of your comfort zone and learn new skills.

I have trained bjj at numerous gyms throughout the country, and this is my favorite place to train. The atmosphere is very different from a typical MMA gym. The first time I visited the gym I was greeted with smiles from the students and the head instructor Warren Stout. Their instructors have a talent in explaining techniques in a way I could easily understand and convey concepts with detail. These are traits few instructors have. The curriculum is highly structured and is different for each level. The training center is very clean and they have the best training partners that are not only friendly but are also the top in the area. I would highly recommend this gym.

Dropped into town for a friends wedding. I stopped by the gym and was met by Warren Stout and his one of his staff. I was totally impressed from the start. Great well equipped and clean facility. I did the Friday night open roll and was greeted warmly by everyone. I had some great rolls with people and also received some great instruction from some of the higher belts. A great bunch of people. I will definitely recommend this place to others and hope I can make it back soon to roll again!!

I trained here when I was in town for work. They were super friendly while yet being mat savages. The instructors were very knowledgeable. The rolls were hard and the caliber of students was up there. I trained three nights and they made me feel like I was a long time student. Thanks for the great training.

The academy is operated by world class instructors. The facility is very clean. The locker room is clean with two showers (in the men's room). The classes start on time, are well structured, and include lots of great training partners. The staff is welcoming and professional. I visit everytime I'm in town. If I lived in Pittsburgh, I'd be here every day.

Amazing facility with dedicated and professional instructors. I can't say enough good things about the gym, the instructors, its members, and all the individuals that dedicate their time to making it an empowering community. Stout Training is literally my favorite place in Pittsburgh and has made my experience and quality of life in this city exponentially better. I've never met, seen, or heard of someone having a poor experience in any of the classes and spending time in one class will make it blatantly obvious as to why this is the case. Overall, its not just a typical gym but an empowering community of individuals from all walks of life constantly working to better themselves and each other.

Beautiful academy, large space, great instruction shows in the strong students. Ample class schedule. Very welcoming to visitors for drop-ins. Real lovers of BJJ and the martial arts broadly.
Super friendly reception, helped me to get orientes quickly, made real effort to make me feel welcome and to make sure I had a good experience - which I very much did!
Definately will return, and really advocate for this excelent academy. Check it out!
