| - I don't normally go out of my way to write Yelp reviews but the UFC Gym in Scottsdale definitely deserves it because they truly go the extra mile for me. Where to begin? Think I'll break it up between Customer Service, Schedule, Atmosphere, Price, Knowledge, Facility and Results.
Customer Service is impeccable here. This isn't the type of gym where they herd you in like cattle and then forget about you once they have your money. They clearly value their members and want to keep them. They're totally passionate about what they do and it shows. Little things like remembering your name or making sure your informed about any schedule changes make a huge difference.
Schedule is super convenient. They've got classes going on from 5am-9pm so there's always an opportunity to make up a class if you're trying to get in there at least 3x a week. They've also got private sessions available in case you want to improve your technique or just have a busy week.
Atmosphere is super friendly and well maintained. I've spoken with a few locals that are intimidated about joining this gym because they think it's going to be a bunch of gnarly dudes trying to bludgeon each other up. Needless to say, those people spend to much time at home watching TV than taking care of their health. Everyone that attends these classes (men and women) are on different levels and you're able to modify your workout until you're ready to advance. I think they also have earlier classes for kids when they get out of school.
Price is way affordable. I've been to other boxing gyms where they make you sign a year contract and work you into paying outrageous rates and fees or they charge you per session. Honestly, they could charge a lot more for the value you're getting at UFC Gym. They also have different pricing plans so you're able to select the one that you're most comfortable with.
Knowledge is key and these guys have it. You get that one-on-one attention you need to improve your technique and push yourself to the next level. They don't just focus on the person who's struggling through the entire class and allow you to continue using bad form. I tried a private session and learned so much about how to think more like a fighter and improve both my offense and defense skills.
The Facility is brand new and well maintained. It always smells good in there, the bags are all wiped down and the floor is always vacuumed . Oh yeah, there are 30-40 bags and all of the weights, treadmills, and other exercise equipment you could possibly need. Great sound system in there also cranking out tunes to keep you motivated.
Finally, most importantly...RESULTS! I came to this gym suffering from severe chronic back pain. I've seen every type of back pain specialist you can think of and tried every local gym from Cross Fit to swimming. After a month of going to UFC Gym I can say with much gratitude that, through a combination of core strength training, range of motion practices and stretching, my back pain is almost completely gone. That my friends is worth its weight in gold. Speaking of weight, I've been shedding some serious lbs and am starting to see my body totally transform.
Overall, this gym deserves a shot. This is a lifestyle change where you're not only getting in shape but you're also learning how to protect yourself by doing something that's mentally and physically stimulating.
UFC Gym deserves to be staple of our neighborhood for a very long time to come.
