The standard

QUALITY.
PASSION.
PROFESSIONALISM.

The three words the gym uses to describe how it is built. They are the filter for every class on the schedule.

01

Quality

Technique first. Coaching that holds a standard, whether you are in your first class or deep in a fight camp.

02

Passion

A room built by people who train and compete in the sports they teach, and who want you to get better at them.

03

Professionalism

A family-owned gym that takes the work seriously and treats locals and visitors the same.

The space

MATS. RING.
HEAVY BAGS.

The room is set up for stand-up, grappling and strength work: mats, a ring, heavy bags and strength equipment. It is a training gym, not a fitness club with a combat class bolted on.

Come see it before you commit. Visitors are welcome to drop by for a tour.

ANDY MURAD

5× Bellator veteran

Andy founded Switch Fitness and leads the MMA Fight Team. He competed five times in Bellator, and he brings that corner experience to the everyday coaching on the floor.

The Fight Team is open to people with no experience. Whether the goal is competition, fitness or self-defence, the standard is the same: show up, learn the technique and put in the rounds.
