Len and his coaching staff are the best. It’s a great atmosphere for all levels of kickboxing. And all of the members work to help each other grow and excel. I highly recommend this facility.

Awesome gym and staff. A variety of classes are offered for adults and can be modified to fit any person’s needs. Also grateful for the kids classes. There’s not many options in the area for kids extracurricular activities. Even if there were, we’d still be here. Coach Len and Coach Tina do so well with the kids.

My daughter has been training here for 6 months, after training at another martial arts school for 5 years. Len is an amazing trainer, who really knows his Martial arts. Hes also a hands on coach, which is a major plus for us. Champion is by far the best school in the tri-city area.

I love training at Champion. I was completely new to all types of martial arts when I started and Len has been so helpful and patient and has never once made me feel like I didnt belong there because I was such a newbie. Five stars for sure.

Len and his wife are absolutely great people! We are visiting from California and needed a place to train while on vacation. This gym was the perfect atmosphere! I have a great gym back home at Alliance in San Diego CA and this gym made me not miss a workout!! Awesome set up, amazing weight selection, great classes and amazing feedback! Love that it’s a family owned business too!

Very friendly and family oriented environment. Champion striking and fitness has helped with both my mental and physical health. I started with no experience and was very nervous but both the owner and his wife are encouraging, helpful and care about your success. They offer classes for all levels with classmates that are supportive and kind. I have had an exceptional experience here and I know you will too.

I cant say enough about Champion Striking and Fitness. I walked in with zero experience and immediately felt welcome and comfortable. I have been a member since May/June 2019 and absolutely love it. There is no better workout than kickboxing. Whether you are training for a fight or just looking to get into better shape and lose weight. Come check them out!

Coach Len is an awesome coach. My daughter loves learning kickboxing from him. The kids love him. He takes time with each child to teach them at their own pace. He teaches them to work together as a team. Coach Len is one of the best in my opinion

Len is a great guy and amazing teacher. The gym is a welcoming environment where anyone can get a great workout. With the help of the gym and dieting tips from Len I was able to lose 75lbs! Changed my life.

I cant say enough good things about this place and Coach Len! He mixes fun, discipline, encouragement, and high expectations really well. All of class time is spent with every student actively engaged with a variety of techniques and agility games - no standing in line and waiting for a bunch of other kids to take turns with too few coaches like we have seen at other places.

Review №16

I have wanted to do classes such as these for a long time. I was always hesitant because I was afraid I will feel out of place. My experience here has been amazing!!!! Everyone has been welcoming and eager to help me learn. I can honestly say this is the best and most fun workouts Ive ever had! Definitely a game changer for me and my fitness goals.

Review №18

Len is very knowledgeable, very patient and a great teacher/coach. When he is working one on one with my 4 year old, Len shocks me with all the different ways he gets him engaged and learning without my son even realizing it. It’s a great environment, great people, and a family atmosphere.

I’ve been going here for nearly 2 years receiving personal training, taking classes and working on strength training. It’s a comfortable and encouraging environment where you feel free to learn, work hard and improve yourself.

I can not say enough great things about this gym, Len cook is a great coach and works with all ages. The gym is very clean and he has all types of equipment to work with if you dont want to do the classes. I would totally recommend this gym to everyone ,the best Ive ever been to.

I couldnt say enough great things about Len and the Champion Striking team. Len has helped me grow as a fighter and made me a better athlete. His understanding of martial arts from a competition stand point makes a huge difference when applying techniques to an mma fight or in a self defense situation. To become a good fighter you have to have a good coach to help you develop good habits and get rid of the bad ones, you cannot do it all on your own. I can tell you that no matter if its fitness or mma Len is 100 percent dedicated to your success, and will go the extra mile to help you meet your goal. You also cannot buy experience, and there is a lot to be said about someone who has done martial arts since being a little kid and has 20 fights to their name. Come try Champion Striking and fitness out, you wont regret it!

Review №27

Contact sports are intimidating for spectators who want to be part of the game; especially mixed martial art type of sports. This is where Champion Striking and Fitness, with Len Cook as coach, break the norm. Yes, there are students there who are amateur MMA fighters training to fight the next bought. But, the majority of Len’s students are there for cross fitness training, mixed with learning a new skill – Muay Thai, better known as kickboxing. What is awesome about these classes, in this gym, is that you will get a workout at a pace that is tailored for you, without judgement or intimidation, even from the amateur fighters who are also great to work with and learn from. Len has setup an environment where your entire family can exercise, train, and become stronger together with the added camaraderie of the fellow students. My only regret to joining Champion Striking and Fitness is that my children and I didn’t join sooner.

Hands down best place to train! Coach Len is a great instructor, mentor, and friend.He has been training Martial Arts since he was 5 and has 10+ years experience with MMA/Kickboxing and Crossfit Training. He has over 7 years worth of coaching experience both at other local MMA and Crossfit facilities before opening Champion Striking and Fitness. He is a Professional Athlete and Fighter along with being a certified Crossfit and USAW Olympic Weightlifting Sports Performance Coach. He has the most experience in the cage then any other coach in this area. If you are looking to get in shape, compete, learn self defense, or to just get a good workout Champion Striking and Fitness is the place for you and He is definitely the man to go to!
