This gym is the best gym in the fox valley area! This is not an opinion it’s a fact I’ve visited and tried all the other gyms. Coach Andrew & coach David are some of the nicest people you’ll meet and are very knowledgeable when it comes to all aspects of mix martial arts. This place is great for hobbyist & competitors. They have a great group of hard working individuals including David & Andrew themselves they are always training with us. Unfortunately I am moving otherwise I’d never leave that gym! I’m happy to say I have an extended family in Appleton Wisconsin I’m sure you will too check them out!

If you’re looking for a gym that’s going to truly teach you, push you to work hard, and treat you like family then you’ve come to the right place! And if you want your kids trained by a skilled “big kid” you’ve brought them to the right place!The coaches here train to exacting standards and ensure true mastery of skills. They ensure those coming for workouts only use proper form for a maximum workout and safety, and they ensure those training for rank know their stuff before moving up. I appreciate that level of integrity.Equally importantly to me, the vibe is different than most other gyms. Everyone is welcoming and supports each other….a very family like atmosphere.

Resurgence MMA in Appleton is an awesome place! Our daughter has learned a lot about self confidence and discipline during the time shes been enrolled. In the world we are living in it is more important than ever to instill values of respect, discipline, hard work and overcoming adversity in our youth. Coach Spencer does a great job teaching the little ones those values coupled with self defense techniques. Our daughter thoroughly enjoyed learning in a fun, clean and structured environment. We were very lucky to have found Resurgence MMA, and cant thank Andrew (owner) and coach Spencer enough for their professionalism and wisdom! If youre looking for a great environment for your kiddos to learn valuable lessons in life and in self defense you need look no further than Resurgence!

Resurgence Kickboxing & Jiu Jitsu Academy is without a doubt the Fox Valley areas top MMA, Kickboxing and Jiu Jitsu academy! No matter what your experience level is, I can assure you this is the friendliest and most welcoming gym in the area. My son and I have been training here for several months now and we have nothing but incredible things to say about Resurgence and their instructors. If you are thinking about joining a gym for self-defense, fitness, weight loss, confidence this place will meet and exceed your expectations. If you need something to help your kids build confidence and leadership skills, there kids program is spectacular! I honestly cannot say enough positive things about the instructors and facility at Resurgence. Do yourself a favor and check it out, you will not regret it.

Any fight gym the coach draws a great group or not based on their dedication and personality and coaching. Andrew is an awesome coach, he has a great group around him and hes put together a fantastic facility. Train at Resurgence.I travel and get to train at many gyms. If youre in the Fox Valley area at least give this one a try.

Can’t recommend Resurgence enough!! As someone who was always interested in martial arts, but was anxious to join, I can happily say I have found a new home here. Coach Andrew, David, and assistant coach Spencer are some of the most helpful and friendly people you’ll ever meet. Their patience and knowledge of many different types of martial arts has skyrocketed me to my goals. Whether you just want a good workout or want to compete in MMA, jujitsu, or kickboxing, this is the place to be! Classes are filling up fast so don’t wait too long!

I was just in town for a day traveling and called them up to see if I could stop in for some mat time. Ive trained jiujitsu for a few years and have been to many gyms. This gym is excellent! Solid jiujitsu, knowledgeable coachs and a very friendly atmosphere. Youd be hard pressed to find a better place. I highly recommend this academy. Thanks for the rolls. Everyday on the mat is a blessing.

Didnt know what to expect when i walked into this gym. I knew i needed something to motivate me and keep me in shape and stop adding so fast. Not only was i shocked at how welcoming and friendly everyone is, but coach Andrew really knows how to teach someone brand new to combat sports. If youre nervous about jumping in, just do it. You wont be sorry.

Amazing facility and amazing people!!! The best gym in the fox valley area. Andrew does an amazing job at explaining techniques in anything he teaches, whether it’s wrestling, jiu jitsu or kickboxing. This gym brings in a family-like atmosphere that I haven’t felt anywhere else. They’re super helpful and kind while still pushing you to be the best person. Top level technique in a fun and friendly atmosphere. I would recommend this place for all levels.

My husband goes here and I can tell he absolutely loves this gym. Hes made many friends and learned many skills, hes taught me a few ways of self defense just in case. I can tell theres great coaches as hes always talking about them. Hell be out for a few months due to us preparing for our delivery but my I know hes definitely prepared to go back to the gym after!

Wow where do I start? As a person who is always traveling finding a place to train is essential to my mental, physical, and emotional health. I stumbled upon Resurgence via a google search and the rest is history. Andrew invited me into his gym with open arms. The gym was clean, the classes were organized, and the people were great. You can’t ask for a better experience when going into a gym. If I could give it 10 stars I would. Highly recommend anyone wanting to begin a journey in either jiu jitsu, kickboxing, or mma come here. These guys are the real deal 💪🏻💪🏻

A clean, professionally-run and engaging gym. I came as a total beginner, and with the help of owner Andrew I quickly learned Muay Thai and have enjoyed the tremendous health and exercise benefits that his classes have provided. Soon Ill be trying out the Jiu Jitsu classes they offer.Ive taken many personal, one-on-one classes as well as group classes. Ive found the one-on-ones to be really effective and fun, Andrew is a great teacher.Group classes are great as well and they are divided so that beginners dont feel like theyre in over their heads.Overall, awesome gym, awesome people and well worth the affordable pricing structure they extend.

Best gym in town for Kickboxing and Mixed Martial Arts. I can say that after spending numerous years are the top 2 HQ clubs in the valley. Andrew is patient, kind, and skilled.

My 14 year old son and I started attending the kickboxing class at Roufusport in Appleton about 6 months ago. Andrew has been a awesome coach, and the other students are all very friendly. I would highly recommend them for anyone in the Fox Valley looking for martial arts training, or a fitness program that is engaging and fun. Its a great gym and getting better all the time with new gear and more space. My son and I look forward to every class. There is also a kids class in the works for those under 14. Give them a call or stop in to try a few classes for free and I promise you will want to come back!

Great gym! The classes are amazing and there is a great variety of martial arts here. The coaches are great and the head coach Andrew is the best coach Ive ever had. He really works with you, hes honest but never too hard on you, and hell joke with everyone too making the class more enjoyable. One of the coolest people I know. If you live in the fox valley area and you want to train mixed martial arts or even any one martial art like BJJ or kickboxing, Roufusport Appleton is THE place to go I promise you. You will not regret it.

Long time MMA fan, always wanted to train. From the start, Andrew and the team have been nothing short of incredible. Its so much fun learning technique from not only professional MMA athletes but also from someone that trained with one of the best coaches in the world -- Duke Roufus.In addition to getting in shape and having a great time doing it, learning martial arts is great for building self-confidence. Confidence knowing you can defend yourself and your loved ones if anything were to happen. Theres no one better in the valley at teaching these techniques than Roufusport.And oh yeah they have an octagon, its sick.

Review №36

Regardless if youve never thrown a single punch or kick in your life or if youre an experienced fighter, this is a great gym to be at that caters to all. I joined this gym a little over a half year ago and learned a lot, had a great time, and was able to get great workouts. Andrew works hard, treats his students like family, and takes his time to provide you constructive criticism. Theres a positive and welcoming environment here Ill miss greatly due to relocating out of state, but Im glad to have spent the time I did here with the members here. If youre even considering about joining this gym I recommend you to stop thinking about it, try it out for free, and have a great experience!

Training at Roufusport Appleton you are not a member, you’re family. The coaching staff is second to none. The lessons aren’t confusing, the environment is always positive, and friendly.

This gym is a unique combination of intense and welcoming. Its always a great workout when you can learn functional techniques. Its great regardless of whether youre looking to get/stay in shape or train to compete. I just go to work out and have fun since theres no expectation or pressure to compete, but if thats what youre looking for, this is the place youll learn how to win.

I just started training here recently and I couldn’t be happier. Coach Andrew is an awesome instructor who knows how to cater to everyone from beginners to experienced.

Review №49

I have done some martial arts before and have had bad experiences with other gyms treating me poorly. Not so here. Andrew is attentive and makes you feel welcome and comfortable even though this can be an intimidating sport for women. Kickboxing is super fun because you dont do the same routine every time. Its learning real kickboxing so you are always drilling something new so it never gets old, and its fun to see the improvement toward the end of class. Its a fun way to burn a ton of calories and lose weight. Also as a coach Andrew always makes me feel he is paying attention to me even when the class is very full as he comes and corrects me or tells me when I am doing something right. I never have felt lost in the shuffle. If you want to get in shape while learning real life skills on how to defend yourself against a bigger person and have fun doing it, this is the place to be!

One of the fastest growing gyms Ive seen around the valley, very detailed training to better hone in on skills, the coach Andrew Kauzlaric prides himself to help others while maintaining his debuts and fights.

I was tired of the boring treadmills, stationary bikes, and other regular gyms cardio machines. So, I decided to find a fun way of doing cardio. Thats when I walked into the doors of Roufusport Appleton, a small gym with a big reputation in the area.These 5 months have been a life changer. Ive been able to do cardio with excitement while learning self defense under a world class martial arts curriculum. But thats not it. The environment is so pleasant that people become a family real quick. Im lucky to have so knowledgeable coaches and friends that push me to improve everyday and get out of my comfort zone (Yes, I was looking for just cardio.. Now Im looking at a fight in a future!).I do recommend this place. We have people from every level of skills, with different backgrounds and different goals; but with the same winning attitude!👊

I had no experience at all coming into the gym and I never once felt like people judged me or looked at me differently. They all helped me and gave me confidence that I could do it. I was not one for a group setting but this gym has completely changed my mind around and I am so happy to be a part of it. It’s more of a family than just a gym. Everyone is willing to help you and be there with you along the way. Coach Andrew is an amazing coach and is wonderful at what he does. His passion for teaching is astonishing and his love and knowledge for MMA, kickboxing and jiu jitsu is contagious and has inspired me to want to know more and have grown an interest in the sport. I have found something that has kept me motivated to stay active but have fun while doing it. Once you join the family you will never want to join another gym.

I like it Here a lot of people stereotype mma gyms as places full of martial artists with huge egos but I’ve met some of the humblest and funniest people in this gym it’s honestly one of the most welcoming experience I’ve had into a gym we got a 3 day free trail so stop on by we also got some free water so that’s pretty cool

I just recently started with Roufusport and from the first phone call i made to coach Andrew, he made it feel like ive been there, and new me for years.

I started training and working out at Roufusport Appleton in May of 2016 when they first opened. The gym is different in many aspects from higher quality instruction, better culture and atmosphere, and no cliques or egos. Beginners are welcome and treated like family from day 1 of stepping into the gym and that is something that myself, my fiance, and family loves about this place. The people who train here quickly became family and we all hang out outside of the gym. If you are looking to learn true self defense, real kickboxing, mma, brazilian jiu jitsu or just get into shape and lose weight... this is THE place to be in Appleton and the Fox Valley. We just had a baby and once she is older she will be in here training too!

Review №68

Best thing ive ever done was join this gym. My passion for martial arts and meeting so many news friends from so many walks of life. All coming together because we share one or two of the same interest. Not to mention being affliated with the main Roufusport headquarters down in Milwaukee and going down ther whenever we want and getting to see the legend Duke Roufus and all the UFC guys down there. Our professor Daniel Wanderley is so knowledgeable about bjj and makes learning so fun being the great funny guy he is. Get ahold of the owner Andrew Kauzlaric and get started changing your life for the better. A gym full of family and real friends.
