moreCoach Mac has an encouraging coaching style. He's a true student of the game and a passionate martial artist. If you're a combat sports dork, you'll appreciate the unique mix of Dutch Kickboxing, Chinese Sanda, and Tae Kwon Do he teaches.
Love this place. Whether you have zero experience or fight competitively, you'll learn so much from Coach Mac. All of the instructors are passionate and patient, helping each student pick up new techniques, perfect their form, and grow as an athlete and individual. The smaller class size makes one-on-one attention and adjustments in class the norm, and Coach is amazing at modifying workouts for folks with injuries or limitations. I started from essentially zero and have learned so much and always feel safe and supported with the coaches, fellow students and my sparring partners. Bonus: your first class is free!
Excellent. Had a great time even with just first session. Been boxing for a couple years and coach Mac helped me refine and improve. I’m not perfect, far from it but coach mac is super patient, educated and passionate. Am looking forward to more lessons and teachings in the near future.
