Amazing facility overall. Plenty of space for movement and great bag variety. They also have an amazing octagon up front for sparring and strength and conditioning tools in the back. Home of Triple C and the amazing coach Eddie Cha!

Amazing gym, amazing coaches. Great, place to be in. It’s always fun to come to the gym and all the top level pro guys are super friendly and welcoming. Just a great environment to be in, whether you’re training to fight or just wanna get in shape.

Best fighters and top notch training. Kids program is fantastic as well. I despise crowds and the mats are big enough where you can find your own space. Work hard, reap the rewards. You will be challenged.

This place is amazing. The people are kind and professional. They have a family vibe and will work with you at your level. The athletes are hard working and motivating to be around. And it’s very clean! I highly recommend this place if you’re serious about fitness. It’a worth every dollar.

I love this place. Never hit a bag in my life or rolled and having been here 6 or so months I feel much better about not only my striking ability but my over all state of life is better, (just rolled for my first time tonight). Unintentionally got thinner / am attanining muscle and living a much more active lifestyle. Just to sell this place anyone on the boarder of thinking of joining, do it. Great coaches, building, environment, staff, and fellow patrons. Everytime I leave Im glad I put in a good work out. (The Thai pads could use better straps 😉)

Ramon and Colt are professional and courteous. Walked me and my wife through the process of joining. Let us enjoy a free class to try it out.We’ve trained at two other Gym and the past. Fight Ready AZ was the cleanest gym I’ve been to. Showers, sauna, lockers, ample mat space and great people.Everything you need in a training facility

My oldest son started wrestling in 7th grade, he’s now a Senior. What I wouldn’t give to go back and meet Angel and the staff at Fight Ready 6 years ago! They have connected with him in a way that no other coach has before. Angel pays attention to the small things that make a big difference. He teaches the kids to learn and improve. Great mindset environment. I now have another wrestler in the family and there is no where else I would go! They have a solid program and great staff.

Colt was very helpful when I toured fight ready. Other than the typical tour that a lot of gyms provided, he made it personal for me and wanted to understand why I am returning to fight ready. He was very flexible about pricing and made me feel welcomed back to Fight Ready.

Paris Stanford has been my BJJ coach for some time now and I cannot begin to express the level of respect and admiration I have for him. Paris is the epitome of what an instructor, coach, and leader should be, and it is a privilege to be his student. Paris continuously exceeds my expectations of what a coach should be. It is an absolute pleasure to be in his company and he is by far one of the most motivational communicators that I have ever met. Additionally, the guy is a straight up SAVAGE! Great facility and staff overall!!

We showed up today early, my daughter was excited to start training for wrestling. WE WAITED 1.5HRS and were told at the eleventh hour that my daughter is too big. Then I asked to speak to Angel. He sent one of his other employees to tell us after waiting 1.5 hours that theres nothing they can do for her here. This is complete nonsense! They could have said that to us the moment we walked in instead my daughter had to do a walk of shame. If YOU CANT ACCEPT EVERY WEIGHT CLASS DONT ADVERTISE THAT YOU CAN!

This place is awesome! We love the Muay Thai classes with coach Russell. Both his kids and adults classes are fun and a great workout! He has so many great techniques and a wealth of knowledge. This place is also clean! The bathrooms, sauna, and locker rooms are top notch. Other gyms we have gone to had gross bathrooms but Fight Ready pays attention to detail! We love it!

I love this family of amazing and wonderful people/athletes! Every experience level is served here-I know this first hand as a beginner, and the staff are amazing, and go out of their way to help and serve everyone who sets foot here!

Excellent. My kid 5yo, just started wrestling. Coach Adrian is amazing. Experienced, patient, great teacher, teaches each kid @ their individual level. I tried other wrestling clubs in the north valley, it was a couple dads trying to coach. It was terrible.Highly recommend to try a free trial with coach Adrian. The gym is a real true UFC GYM. Top coaches & fighters. Facility is very cool, clean, & well kept. I was very impressed. They also have a number of other kids class available

I love training here. I want to be a professional MMA fighter and this gym and the coaches are preparing me. The coaches are fighters so they really know what theyre teaching. Coach Roland trains some of the great fighters and really helps a lot even though Im just starting. Coach Benny is a fighter and is also a great trainer. Coach Heath trains the Brazilian Jiujitsu and is a great trainer too.

DONT GIVE THIS COMPANY YOUR CREDIT CARD NUMBER --If you plan on quitting they continue to bill you and we cant get them to stop--my son went for one month and hasnt attended a class in 6 months and theyre a STILL BILLING US!!!!!IF must give your money to these unethical people please pay cash to protect yourself. Its awful a company-- there werent enough kids to spar with and the coaches were always changing--seemed like management didnt have it together--- they claimed they were in transition because the main coaches stole all the kids and opened their own gym and almost all the kids followed--a few customers gave me the low down- --wish they would of explained all this to me before we signed up--so no credit cards, make sure theres enough kids to spar with and a constant coach who knows what they are doing --we didnt get any of this $600 later?????

Dropped in for a quick workout this afternoon. I had no idea what I was in for. This place is not just a gym, but a real training community filled with serious athletes who travel from all over the valley to train here. Despite being new, both the staff and the other students here were all really friendly and I never felt like I was being left behind or lost in the class. Il definitely be back.

Fight Ready checks all the boxes. World class instructors, world class facility, managed by professionals who treat you with respect and kindness, and the facility is just off the 101 so its easy to get to. I joined after checking out a few other places for bjj. Couldnt be happier with my decision after taking the beginner bjj class with Coach Paris Stanford. Everything was broken down for a total noob like me to understand, and the instructors were watching and helping me adjust my technique. The classmates were friendly and welcoming. Cant wait to keep learning here.Ive also boxed before, so having an in-house striking program is a plus in case I want to take some of those classes. For days I want to focus on strength and conditioning, they have a program for that as well. Man, this place has everything you could want and theres a real friendly attitude throughout the gym.Overall, great spot. Cant recommend highly enough.

Peter is the most amazing fantastic instructor I had. He worked with me from the very beginning. Started from zero experience , I become confident in my striking and now Im looking forward to a smoker.

‘Fight Ready MMA’ ReviewThe coaching staff at this place is absolutely next level.I’m writing an online review (which I never do) from a plane, because I’m headed home from a business trip and can’t wait to get back in the gym. Fight Ready MMA is helping me change my life.I came to this gym in September with a goal of getting “Fight Ready”. Out of shape and inactive for over a decade, I decided it was time to pursue a longtime dream of fighting some dude in a cage.I asked these guys to teach me and coach me to be a cage fighter, and their work so far is paying off. I’m a work in progress, but “progress” is good (hoping to be ready for a January/ February fight). Regardless of that fight, and how well I perform, I reccomend Fight Ready to anyone. They have classes for ALL ages and experience levels, and have the expertise to coach up even the most talented fighters in Arizona. Google some of the coaches and fighters, you’ll see.They are professional, compassionate, and tough as nails. They treat men, kids, and females with respect. Everyone in this gym works hard every time they are here, but they don’t take themselves too seriously. This is an honest place where you will become stronger and you will become humbled. I’ve lost nearly 25 lbs and significant body fat. I sleep better, I eat better, and I feel better. One day soon, I may even be a fighter.I have a long way to go and my journey is different from yours, but whatever your goals, this gym can help to get you there. Thanks to all the coaches! I appreciate all you do.

After extensive research of other gyms in Scottsdale I found Fight Ready. I was training at another national boxing gym locally and found the classes to be uninspiring and impersonal. Fight Ready is in a class all by themselves IMO. If youre looking for a workout where you learn practical skills then Fight Ready is the gym for you. You wont find this kind of workout doing run of the mill boxing/kickboxing routines at the fitness gym.I totally, 100%, disagree with a comment below about the staff. Ive found every coach extremely nice, patient and knowledgeable, same for the members. I think that is an unfair comment given my experience over the last 7 months.

Review №29

No one ever calls you back, the first person I spoke was very rude and very unprofessional. My son was lied to about what he was “trying”. He thought he had a trail and now they are saying he sign a contract! He knew he wouldn’t even be in town so why would he knowly sign up for that? He didn’t? They can’t even produce anything he signed. I am appalled at how dishonest and misleading they are and they don’t care! How are they still in business!

Review №31

I agree with the other 1 star review. Dont ever give this place your credit card number, as they are not up front about the terms of the contract in the beginning. I agreed to a 6 month membership and even though I stopped going after 4 months, I was willing to pay the whole 6 months because I did sign a contract, after all. However, I hadnt checked my cc statements and discovered they continued to charge me for another 6 months after that. Apparently you are automatically signed up for an automatic renewal in the beginning and I wont get my money back. Now Im out $600. I will never recommend this establishment to anyone and I only hope their shady business tactics put them out of business.*update*After going in to talk to Fight Readys new owner, Jay, he agreed to give me back $400 of the $600. What happened occurred before Jay took over as the new owner, so kudos for doing the right thing. I was also featured on channel 3 for this story.

Review №32

Its crystal clear that the new ownership knows what theyre doing. My 15 year old wanted to learn MMA and potentially participate in the UFC. I searched many gyms and there are a lot that just have cardio classes disguised as boxing training. Fight Ready is the real deal. The coaches are professional fighters themselves. Not only are the coaches great at what they do, they are also great mentors and role models and help bring out the best in the student. I highly recommend this gym if you want to be a amateur or professional fighter or even if you want you child to learn the values of hard work and character.

Ive never met a more professional group of people at a gym. My son goes there for wrestling and the wrestling is top notch so I decided to do a little bit of jujitsu and I am very new to it and they are very nice to me and break things down very well

Fight Ready is a great training facility but watch out for their billing! I would describe it as predatory and unprofessional. Customer service and dispute resolution with Cole was awful. Dont give them your credit card number!

There isnt one thing about the gym that I dont like! In a short amount of time I made a lot of progress which I whole heartedly attribute to the amazing coaching i recieve. Personally, Muay Thai has been the best fit for me along with my coach Russell Mckinney.

Review №42

Fight Ready gym is a great great facility no matter what you are looking for. I began taking my 8 year-old last summer as something to do after school. Over the last 9 months, I’ve watched his confidence and maturity grow in leaps and bounds - not just as an athlete, mind you, but more importantly, as a school student & individual.He has participated in Muay Tai classes (with coaches Russell & Paris), Jiu-jitsu (with Heath & Thiago), and Wresting (with Frankie). The coaches are wonderful with the kids and great at instilling No bullying ethics, respect, and discipline. Whats more, my son has begun to construct lasting bonds and forge strong friendships with other boys and girls who attend Fight Ready ... It would be an understatement to say that he enjoys going as often as he can.Additionally, my son also plays club sports, and as every parent knows - things can get a little competitive on the field/court. With that said, I’ve watched his confidence spill over onto the field of play, leaving him observably more engaged, and never reluctant to get in on the action - even in the presence of bigger, stronger kids.As for the adult classes, the Gym does a great job making sure there are plenty that coincide with the kids program. That way, youre making great use of your time, not stuck sitting in a chair watching for 2 hours.At first, I simply started using the weight room, but I have since joined the adult muay tai, as well as the Juijitsu. And just like they do with the kids, the coaches do an incredible job pairing each student with appropriate partners (so youre matched with someone who possesses a similar skill set).In short, Fight Ready gym is truly one-of-a-kind. The facility is spotless from the weight room to the mats & locker-room. Moreover, it should be said that I also have a membership at Lifetime fitness and there is simply no comparison. The locker rooms, showers, and bathrooms are absolutely immaculate. So, kudos to the new owners who took over around a year ago. Theyve done an outstanding job.
