    This is the rating for boxing, which is of really mediocre quality. Only around 3 classes a week, overcrowded, and very slow progression (you must spend at least 8 weeks on the bags. what’s the point of not doing technical exercises - not sparring, exercises)? Anyway, besides that the staff is very friendly, and the BJJ lessons are numerous and look good But if you’re looking for boxing, it’s not great

    Went here for a free trial a few months ago with a friend. The teens were laughing at us and giving us nasty looks. I heard one of the coaches go up to the one that coached me say: "How is it" and laughed (clearly because we are new) literally right in front of us. Felt so uncomfortable and wanted to leave the whole time. Been at a new muay thai gym for 8 months now (Opensparring- its so good!)

    Pretty pricey, but I'm having a lot of fun and feel like I'm learning a lot. Lessons are fluid and booking classes and attendance is very flexible, plus, the teachers are incredibly skilled at teaching and the arts themselves. I would recommend if you would like to get into martial arts, go pro, or just get into shape.

    VT1’s coaches bring the rare combination of high-level skillsets and experience, combined with empathy and compassion meeting me where I am. The gym’s environment is super friendly (also women-friendly), supportive and fun. My boy has also been going for a few years in the kids' class and loves it – the class has the perfect balance of coaching the techniques and cool games – most of the time he’s learning the techniques through the cool games! The gym certainly has a soul over just being a money-making machine. If you are a woman or a parent reading this review, give VT1 a go, I can’t recommend it highly enough.

    that I've had the privilege of training at for the past 11 years. The instructors' expertise and dedication are evident in every class, fostering a positive and motivating environment. The variety of disciplines offered, from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to Muay Thai, ensures a well-rounded experience. The camaraderie among fellow students adds to the supportive atmosphere, making it an ideal place for both beginners and experienced practitioners. My time at VT1 has been transformative, improving my skills and boosting my confidence.

    Love this gym. I started as a complete beginner and was afraid to join a class, but as soon as I stepped into the gym I felt at home straight away. The friendly coaches, receptionists and members make you feel so welcomed and comfortable. I also told my friend's kids to join their kids classes and they have been enjoying the classes a lot! Highly recommend this place, it really doesn't matter if you are just looking to get fit, find a new hobby or compete, they cater to all goals very well!
