Ive been training at Rogue for about 6 months now and have nothing but positive experiences with both the students and coaches. The community at Rogue is very welcoming, and everyone there is dedicated to bettering themselves and others both inside and outside of the gym. If your considering taking classes for self defense, fitness, or to just to find a community to be a part of I would highly recommend you check out this gym!

I’ve been training with Rogue combat for almost a year and a half, and the training has been top notch since day one. From wrestling and BJJ to Muay Thai every coach is an experienced and knowledgeable one, who actively competes I. Their respective styles. There’s a welcoming culture throughout the gym, with staff that really care about bettering people’s lives. Check it out I promise it won’t disappoint.

There’s no way to describe how awesome Rogue actually is. I’ve been training for a year with this incredible tribe and can’t live without - seriously. Coaches are awesome, classes are top notch, and you actually learn the art of MT. Positivity flows from this place. You will not regret going to a class. This is family.

Incredible gym!!! Coach Johnny is very caring about his members.He wants to see you succeed ON & OFF the mat….even if that means providing some tough love.I also think it’s cool that he gives everyone the option to train as they desire! (Very welcoming and accommodating to everyone’s mask preference.)

I started at the club a few weeks ago, I already feel like part of the family. The coaches are so helpful and genuinely want you to be the best you can be. The other members are very welcoming and patient while you get more comfortable. If you are thinking about joining a club in Asheville, you have to go with Rogue. I am so happy I joined. I only wish I had done it sooner!

Ive been at Rogue Combat only for a couple weeks and I easily fell in love. Im very much a beginner so one of the biggest things I was looking for was communication in the Muay Thai classes. The classes arent that big, and there is a good balance of the instructors giving personal one on one tips, as well as making sure the class is staying accountable and breaking a sweat. The first couple of classes were a little nerve racking, but now it feels like a big family all learning skills together. Everyone is so friendly and you can tell the compassion is contagious just based on peoples attitudes. If youre looking for a beginner, advanced, or anywhere in between combat club, Rogue is right for you.

Rogue Combat is an awesome gym. The staff is great, very knowledgeable and good at motivating you for your workout. The facilities are great. Nicest people to ever choke me out.

If you’ve never taken a single class like I had and are reluctant to start, just know that they make you feel so comfortable and treat you like family. It’s not a combat club, it’s a big family combat club. All the trainers are so down to earth and highly skilled in their respective mma styles and I absolutely love it here. If you’re still deciding on it, trust me this is the best decision you’ll make!

Fantastic place to train, and extremely welcoming. Johnny, Zach, Deuce, and Phil are all excellent coaches who care about their students’ development. I’d highly recommend Rogue to anyone looking to train in the Asheville area.

Rogue has a really welcoming environment and a team that will keep you motivated inside and outside the gym! Being new to marital arts, helpful and friendly instructors and training partners have made so much of a difference. If youre curious about Rogue, go ahead and make that call! Youll be glad you did.

I have been training BJJ at Rogue Combat Club for three weeks now, and I feel more powerful every week! The instructors are knowledgeable, and work hard to make sure you are working hard. Not only am I more confident in my self defense after only three weeks, but also more confident with who I am. Rogue pushes you to be the best you can be, and they make sure you have fun doing it!

As a complete newcomer to the MMA scene I really didnt know where to begin. Im glad I made the decision to step into Rogue Combat! Everyone here has been super welcoming from day one whether theyre a coach or fellow student. The knowledge these coaches have is incredible and they do a great job of passing down what they know to all of their students no matter their experience level. If you want to meet great people, train in a great environment, stay motivated and stay in shape, Rogue Combat should be your first choice!

This place is amazing and top notch. The coaches are knowledgable and personable. They will push you to be better, but respect your limitations. Ive been attending classes for a week and already feel like Im a part of a new family. The workout and knowledge you get with each class is phenomenal. I only regret not having joined The Tribe sooner. 10/10

I’ve been training at Rouge for almost a year and I’ve grown immensely in my skills and confidence as a fighter. There is still so much for me to learn and I know the coaches at Rouge wants me to succeed as much as I do. No frills, just straight up good coaching. If you are serious about getting better at Muay Thai or jiu jitsu and willing to work hard, this is the place for you.

Rogue Combat Club is the first place I have trained in BJJ. Coaches Zach, Mike, and Johnny are very knowledgeable and the classes are beginner friendly. I would absolutely recommend Rogue to anyone who is looking to learn self defense skills, increase strength, lose weight, and/or improve discipline.

I’m so grateful that I found Rogue! When I moved to the area, I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to find a gym that I enjoyed as much as my previous gym. I’m happy to say that I was wrong and was pleasantly surprised once I started training at Rogue! First, I love the sense of community (on and offline). There’s no clique or ego issues here, which is hard to come by (especially as a shy and introverted 5’ female)! The member app is a great tool and their class schedule can fit anyone’s needs. I also really appreciate the structured curriculum and how intentional coaches are with training and presenting information (they emphasize the importance of having fun and proper technique while practicing in a safe manner). I love that the coaches are all up to date on their education and are all active competitors. I look forward to many more years of training here!

This place has been nothing but amazing, I have learned a lot. Instructors are the best around, not only do they have the knowledge to teach you all you want but they have a great sense of humor and know how to make you feel at home.

Review №23

I have been in and out of a bunch of gyms dating back to my competitive days from childhood through my early 20s, and I can really appreciate the way Rogue is run. They do care about the folks training here and make it as easy on you as possible to get started. The office work is taken care of really smoothly and the member app seems to be working well for them. I never got serious about grappling and Im excited to climb that mountain, while keeping my striking sharp with the muay thai folks. If you are thinking about it, just give them a call or walk through the door - that is always the hardest part of joining a new gym. You will find that the people here are kind and wish for your success. New or experienced to martial arts youll find good training partners here.

There are a lot of good people at this gym. However, the owner and all of the coaching staff are anti-vax and anti-mask, and condescending to people who are concerned about Covid precautions. Consider yourself warned.

Love this place, the team Johnny has put together is exceptional. Special shout outs to Coach Brian, the way he teaches allows me to actually get these concepts, so much respect for him. JD, for keeping the energy up and I probably never would have signed up if not for his excellent sales skills and I really appreciated the way he made my son feel welcomed as part of the tribe . And I cant leave out Jen, the trusted confidant, she can intuitively understand where people are and listen without judging, pure feminine power. Jen, you have more of an affect on us than you realize.

Rogue Combat Club is an awesome gym, with great coaches, serious training environment, and a fun, family like culture. There are a variety of classes for striking and grappling all the way from the morning throughout the evening. The diversity of classes allows for beginner to advanced students to be able to continue to work on skill development. All coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and are always mindful of individuals skill level, body type, strength, and knowledge base, and coaches make adjustments and modifications to teaching styles to help meet each individuals particular needs. Rogue has given me the opportunity to continue to work on growing mentally and physically, expand my martial arts practice, form new friendships, and overall just have fun.

I want to start out by saying that I am new to this gym. So far I have worked with 5 staff members of the staff. Every single member was more than helpful and knowledgeable. They have worked with me even with my previous injuries and limitations. I have lower back injuries from being in the Army, along with a damaged left arm from a severe motorcycle accident. They are very encouraging. They will push you to your max. They are very professional. I watched them with the children classes and it is awesome how they can adjust from dealing with adults to children so easily. They have classes for everyone; men, women, old, young, fat, fit, professional, amateur and everything in between. THE BEST PART OF THIS GYM IS IT IS FUN AND IT WORKS!!!!!

I called Johnny up. Told him that I wanted to get in better shape and learn a new skill. Informed him of my concerns with my schedule and my health. No questions asked and never once discouraged me. He told me to come in when I could and see what I thought. I joined up and this is my second week training. Johnny and Amanda are great coaches. I havent been treated stupid or belittled for lack of knowledge of the sport. They push me to do use proper techniques. They add a lot of personal training during each session. Ive watched them with kids too. They are very patient and dont loose their cool. They dont yell and keep things light and fun. Johnny is great for students that wrestle in school. I dont know what rates are for similar places, but for the experience that I am receiving I feel my money is being spent very well and definitely very reasonable. I highly recommend Rogue and hope to see anyone reading this that wants the experience there.

On my recent visit to Asheville, I had the opportunity to train with the members of Rogue Combat Club. During both the BJJ class and couple of open mats I attended, I felt extremely welcomed by the instructors and students at Rogue, and had an absolute blast learning from everyone there. In addition to learning a lot during the Saturday morning class, everyone was super friendly and really fun to roll with. I had a great time visiting, and will definitely be returning the next time I’m in Asheville. I highly recommend checking out Rogue Combat Club if you’re visiting or live in Asheville!

Review №74

A gym that cares as much about community as it does about muay thai, wrestling, and jiu jitsu. The coaches pull from their vast backgrounds in combat sports, and bring to the table an easy-to-learn curriculum that will help you reach your goals. Whether you want to lose weight, connect with like-minded people, compete at the highest levels, or anything in between, the staff at Rogue cares as much about your individual success as you do. My 2019 New Year resolution was to take up jiu jitsu. I didnt really have any goals beyond that. But after training for just a short time, my coaches and training partners helped me to find new goals that they continue to help me work toward. If youre serious about training, or even if youre not and you just want to surround yourself with good people, you cant go wrong by stepping on the mats Rogue Combat Club.

For someone who has never tried any type of martial arts, I felt extremely comfortable and welcomed my first jiu jitsu class. It was a bit daunting knowing I had no experience, but Johnny and Brian take the time to answer and demonstrate any questions and concerns. I have been going to Rogue for a month now and cant praise Johnny, Brian, and the rest of the team at Rogue. It has become almost an addiction, and I dont see myself leaving anytime soon. The only regret I have is not joining sooner. If you have even the slightest urge to try a class, call and schedule a trial class out. You are doing yourself a favor that you wont regret.

Ive been going to Rouge a little over 3 months now and am absolutely loving it! I have made Muay Thai and Jiu Jitsu my main focus in my athletic life and have put my other sports on the back burner because Ive become so enthusiastic on learning these new skills and arts. It really is addicting and fun! The instructors are all very knowledgeable and also super cool people in general. They all compete (and often win) so they know what they are talking about. The culture here is very encouraging and friendly and never once have I been put down or discouraged. The gains I have made here both physically and mentally are also amazing. I have put on 10 pounds of muscle(I was very skinny), become more flexible, and have mentally gained more confidence in everyday life.if you are looking to learn new badass skills, make new friends, and get in the best shape of your life look no further than Rogue Combat Club.

What a great combination of training modalities. I love the fact that you can get a great wrestling base for ground work and then proper boxing for standup.

JIu Jitsu changed my life, and I have Rogue Combat Club and its amazing coaches and community to thank for that! If you want fun and empowering exercise, Rogue is the place to be. Ive been here for over a year now, and I am constantly trying to drag more people in. As a small woman, not to mention a single mom, Rogue has never been anything but welcoming and I cannot imagine making it through a week without hitting the mats there. BJJ is intimidating to get into, especially for women, and the fact that RCC has taken the extra mile to provide a once a month FREE women only seminar (taught by women too!), speaks volumes to the fact that the coaches want this amazing sport and art to truly be available to everyone.

Ever since Georges Boxing Gym shut down, I have yet to find a contact sport gym that has clicked. A couple months ago, I finally decided to check out Rogue Combat Club. I was initially intimidated with Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, since my younger years were spent boxing. That quickly changed when I met Johnny Buck and Brian Asheland. Their methodical and patient approach helped me become comfortable on the mat. I had zero wrestling experience prior. Its also convenient that I can fulfill my cardio needs with high level fitness kickboxing with Alex. They even ofter Yoga and Running throughout the week. This gym really has something for everyone. If you are slightly considering bjj, muay thai, or kickboxing, this place is it. Do yourself a favor and take advantage of their first free class, you wont regret it.

Couldnt ask for a more experienced staff and knowledgeable coaches. Johnny Buck, Amanda Ballew are the best around. Come see us at Rogue Combat Club for the only experience in WNC that will leave you coming back for more. Wrestling, BJJ, Kick Boxing, MMA, for everybody from beginners to competitive level. From kids to teens and adults.
