My daughter was going to this gym for awhile and he was extremely unprofessional with her, she’s only 19 and Josh is 30something . You are a creep and it is NOT okay to treat women like objects and that you can do or say whatever you want! If you are a young girl especially, I do not recommend training with this creep. High prices and very poor quality!

Their curriculum is amazing and their training program is amazing. I had to quit going because I couldn’t really afford the $200 a month and the time it was taking away from my family. The main coach Josh was super understanding we had a bit of trouble with the cancellation but he helped me through the process no questions asked.

I brought my 5 year old (BLACK) son to josh to help him build his confidence and learn how to protect himself. I have the most reserved and introverted kid there is and he has absolutely blossomed!!! He’s working so hard and him being there is changing him in so many ways. I love the environment !!! It truly is a great place

I had called so many places trying to find more personal training with conditioning and self defense. I am so happy I came across Savage MMA. This is exactly what I wanted. Josh Hillman is absolutely the most outstanding trainer. He makes sure Im working myself up to harder workouts and walks me through form and breathing. He always explains everything thoroughly. I have been going for 5 weeks and my family, friends, and coworkers have noticed a difference. I always look forward to coming here!

Very open and understanding owner. I wasnt there for very long, but the training was intense. Great place to go if you want to become a fighter, or if you want to see results within 2 weeks.

The negative reviews on here are unwarranted. The classes arent your Planet Fitness/hand holding, stress free, treadmill classes. Its a mixed martial arts gym and the owner is a fighter, not Dr. Phil or some personal trainer who motivates you for a paycheck. Josh wants his students to engage, learn, grow and succeed. Hes not there to tell you how many push-ups to do or say cmon you can do one more cmon. More of a rhetorical Why arent you doing more? That being said, you get out what you put into the classes.If you only want to workout, the conditioning classes are frequent and you cannot beat the price for what you get.If you want to train, great place.

Just left a self defense class with my 13 yr old daughter and her 13 yr old friend. Josh Hillman taught these 2 girls how to protect themselves way better than I expected! Just watching him and listening you can feel his passion. I am so happy I brought them and will be returning for more classes!

I started savage June of 2014. It was a difficult time for myself. I was constantly using my inhaler and my weight became a real problem after having two girls. As soon as I walked in, I was welcomed with a smile from the owner. He took the time to sit with me, and discuss my goals and aspirations. I started at savage with only the intent to loose weight. Since then, I have ran in two warrior dashes, started training with the mma class, gained muscle, lost weight, had skin removal surgery, competed, and maintained my asthma. EVERYONE is a blessing and has been the greatest support. The coaches are top notch and know what they are doing. Savage MMA is going places and Im proud to be part of this establishment.

Absolutely love this place. The owner and others who woekout and train here are some of the most supportive, encouraging, and motivating people Ive ever met. My children attend classes here as well and they work hard and enjoy the classes.

Review №16

I would agree with the very low reviews I wasn’t even able to get into the gym, just a telephone call with one of their people, (Joshua Hillman founder) was enough to let me know that they were rude, obtrusive arrogant, ignorant, evasive, had the Audacity to tell me that my questions, on class structure were pointless, and Upon my asking if I could simply come in and observe what they did how they did it how they interact with students the level of instruction, he became indignant statingthat he might not even be willing to except me as a student anyway!When my whole point was to decide whether I even want to bother with him, or the school For that matter. I didn’t even get to ask how do you get any high-level training out of one hour three times a week that’s not elite training!One hour conditioning one hour actual training that in itself gave me second thoughts. Oh OK in an hour on Saturday as well. Smh!I told him I’d rather train in my backyard With rabid raccoons Fresh out of the dumpsterThan so much is give the time of day to someone who didn’t have the basic business sense/common courtesy, and decency in dealing with potential students, and or business development!I would say don’t even bother calling! Let alone joining/going!

The owner, Joshua Hillman, is one of the most disrespectful and ill-mannered human beings I have ever encountered. The training is a waste of time and money, and is equivalent, if not worse, than going on YouTube and taking notes on two middle schoolers throwing hands. If you aspire to be someone who will always get looked down on, can’t fend for themselves, completely disrespected and treated like a sweaty gym sock then Savage MMA is the place for you! So withdraw your life saving, put on your spandex, grab your Socker Boppers and give the place a call...you’ll be ready to fight helpless women, the elderly and even small children in no time at all! #savagelife

Extremely High ego with no REAL accomplishments, rude to new potential customers. Uncomfortable for a nonwhite individual. Too rude to even discuss price per month for a membership. Highly recommend to get a membership elsewhere.
