My youngest son who is seven years old has a membership at Fight Ready and I have to say that he and I are both so happy with our membership. The teachers/coaches are all serious fighters, which made me nervous at first...wondering how they would be with small kids, but they are all serious sweethearts. They are stern when the kids are out of line, but in a very quiet, never embarrassing way.
Heath is an amazing teacher. My son loves him especially. He loves when there are days when there aren't many kids to spar with his size and he gets Heath all to himself. It's so great to see these fighting men, play and laugh and really interact with the children.
I've taken Benny's kickboxing class and I'll just say "OMG." If I didn't have preexisting injuries I would be all over it. He's also such a sweet man and made me feel very comfortable in a situation I wasn't initially comfortable in. I won't be taking his class again, but I refer all my friends to him to take his class.
The schedule has changed in a way that makes more sense for the business, which is great. The kids' classes: JuiJitsu and Wrestling are now an hour each, before they were 45 minutes and rotated. Now they are both classes everyday. My son plays football also, so he cut down to just wrestling for now. He's still young and I like to let him decide how many activities he wants to do at a time. The wrestling coach, Frankie is so great with all the kids too. You can tell that they enjoy teaching the younger kids the sport that they love so much.
Paul is another great guy. I don't know how the owner accumulated such amazing coaches. He does the JuiJitsu class with Heath and then does the Wrestling class with Frankie and you can see on his face that he absolutely loves the kids.
I recommend this club to anyone looking for sports for their children or kickboxing. I know there are a lot of other services they offer, but these are the ones that I've been a part of.
Scott, keep up the great work. You've got a great team there. And thank you to Heath, Paul and Frankie for being so sweet and so strong with my little guy. He loves you guys and always wants to make you proud.
