The Ultimate Gym is unlike anything else in Charlotte. The building is an old turn of the last century textile factory in the NoDa neighborhood, with all brick walls, extremely high ceilings and 12x12 wooden posts that stopped being made decades ago. All this provides a hardcore atmosphere for the serious trainer or the person just wanting to learn a little self defense or lose a few pounds.
The atmosphere is further improved by the attitudes of the people at the Gym. When walking in you will most likely meet the owner, Doug Bradford or his son Kevin. Both very laid back and welcoming.
Since the Gym has numerous programs to pick from Doug will ask a few questions to help you identify the program that might be best for you. He also has some options that allow you to try out numerous programs, at a reasonable price, to help you find what works best for you. The same friendly, helpful manner can be found for each of the martial and physical training programs.
I am partial to Systema, Russian Martial Art (www.charlotte-systema.com) program but the Gym offers instruction in many other arts as well. I think 10 or 12, all by qualified instructors.
Hope to see you there.
