This is all round the best environment I have had the opportunity to train in, from the professionalism, adhering to covid regulations, challenging my fitness, and all round friendly and focused staff.I am blessed enough to get to train with Frans and I am so thankful for the time spent training and the results.My fitness levels have been significantly improved, I am learning so many new things that my body is capable of and my mental well-being is positively impacted.Thank you Frans and Fight Sports Centre for all you have done and continue to do!!!

A welcoming environment for newcomers. Ive been training with Dan for a month now and the results are already showing. Dan is an excellent trainer who is incredibly motivational and supportive and has helped me build my strength not only physically but mentally in a very short space of time & getting stronger and more focused every week! I would highly recommend Brendon, Dan and the entire FSC team to help you achieve your mental and physical fitness goals.

Great gym, with a phenomenal coach. Training focuses on the physical and mental aspects, so all round experience. Great atmosphere conducive to learning and the other members are awesome, helping along the way. Got a ring and cage, good space to work out in. If you are looking to get fit or train MMA this is definitely your choice.

It was bloody brilliant. I was pushed to my absolute limit. I see myself going nowhere up upwards under the guidance of Brendon and Dan. It’s not just a physical challenge but a mental one as well. And rest assured you’ve got a great team to help push you. I’m already looking forward to the next session. As hard as the sessions are and as hammered as you can be it will always leave you wanting more!

Great Gym with excellent facilities - instruction on point with very patient teachers who want to see you succeed.Atmosphere is very friendly with a “check your ego at the door” feel.Group classes are intermit enough to feel like a one on one session with the added value of being able to develop and train with a great group of people.Would highly recommend!

One of the best experiences I have had doing exercise. The trainers are extremely attentive and help you go at your own pace, will help you up your game. The atmosphere is something you would want when working out! This is workout like no other.

I started training with Dan (general Zohan) in November 2019. When I scheduled my first session with Dan I actually cancelled it due to my lack of confidence after having my baby boy. Dan was extremely supportive and spurred me on to reschedule. I did reschedule and have never looked back since!Dan is a fantastic trainer, very motivation and supportive. He has helped me progress with both my physical and mental well-being.After only joining in November and struggling with my first couple of sessions, I am now about to increase my sessions to twice a week as I enjoy it so much and can really see great improvements. I can’t thank him enough!I would recommend dan to anyone 100%!!🙌🏼🙌🏼

What an incredible experience! I joined FSC about 6 months ago without any knowledge on boxing. thanks to the FSC team and specifically coach Dan, I am now a regular that appreciates the effort the team puts in! you can feel how much these guys love this sport when you come training and it immediately transfers to their clients. Dan will make sure that your boxing skills are progressing being integrative of individual concerns/goals. the schedules are very flexible to match clients need. I highly recommend this gym!

Head boxing coach Dan, loves the art of boxing. You can see it when he trains you, making sure and taking time that you grasp every movment he teaches. He makes sure you are sparring equally skilled teammates and knows when to adjust for each individuals level. Whether you are looking for fitness or boxing skill . The coach makes sure he tailors to the individual. Love coming to FSC!

World-Class. Experience with Gavin (Judo), Brendon (Owner / Legend) and class-mates has been refreshingly professional & genuinely warm-hearted. Its the opposite to what one might expect from an MMA gym. Try it - and you will realise the only thing youll end up regretting - is not having done it earlier.

You guys have shown me just how humble, accepting, friendly and kind a bunch a badass, serious and passionate martial artists can be. You and the trainers in your gym have so little ego, and that is such a refreshing thing to find. Very welcoming to a newbie like me 😊 all the best with everything to come

I have been training at FSC for 2 years, I appreciate the amount of effort and drive the team put into every individual. Dan is truly passionate about fitness and ensures that you get the ultimate all round body training. Dan is highly knowledgable in the boxing ring, whether you are looking for technical or a fitness experience he will guide you from a beginner level right through to professional. His energy and motivating spirit will keep you coming back for more! After family comes work and in between these comes FSC, it helps balance and put everything together!Elwyn Sykes 👌🏻

Training with Brendon at Fight Sports Centre has been such an incredible journey for me so far! 4 months in and I learn something new every session. What makes this gym special is that everyone wants to learn more no matter their level of advancement- egos are left at the door. We are not taught to brawl, we are taught to use technique to skillfully outwit our opponent. When you join FSC you are joining a family that is built on mutual respect with an incredible leader!

Review №35

Fight Sports Centre is the real deal and the full package. Im certain that joining was the best decision Ive made in a long time.I have found, coming in as an absolute beginner, that the high quality standing and ground fighting training was pitched at the perfect level for me to grasp, from which the progression has been very natural. One of best parts about the training is that even in a group session the coaching is done in such a way that I feel as though I am getting a private class. In addition to the great coaching, the atmosphere in the gym is amazing, every single person, regardless of skill level, is eager to learn and help one another out.Fight Sports Centre also provides fitness sessions run by very knowledgeable trainers who pushpush you safely to your limits. Attending them regularly has seen my strength and endurance grow much more than Ive ever experienced in a normal gym exercise routine.Since starting at the gym, aside from the physical skills I have learnt, I have noticed that in my day to day life I feel much more confident, have more energy and in general feel a lot better about myself.I highly recommend Fight Sports Centre to anyone looking for a great place to learn MMA or by far the best way to get fit and strong.

Brandon is a professional as much as hes a gentleman, a truly wise trainer who doesnt use a blanket approach to training. Apart from his fantastic approach to teaching the art and the game of boxing, his attention to your individual needs is something to be noted.

I only started training at FSC about 4 months ago & was not sure MMA was for me but nevertheless I decided to give it one try and that is all it took for me to become fully entrenched in the world of MMA. The training, fighting, but most of all the community and the team you join. This is largely attributed to Brendon Katz, he is an unbelievable coach who teaches great technical skills, and who provides each of his students with great wisdom and insight. I am so proud to be apart of the FSC gym and the FSC team, but most of all I am so grateful to Brendon for opening my mind to this amazing sport.

Fight Sports Centre is not just a gym, its a gym that has produced champions and will continue to produce champions in the future. Under the coaching of Brendon Katz the gym is in the best hands possible ! FSC is next level training. Whether youre looking for self defense, training to be a professional or just want to get into shape, FSC is the place to be! The environment in the gym is incredible. Nobody gets picked on and everybody feels welcome ! This is a gym of champions! Brendon is at the gym everyday from 6am till after 7 in the evening ! His dedication is unbelievable and it shows with the champions he has produced as well as the champions he will produce ! Whether youre a beginner or not, youll feel welcome and love the training! FSC is the place to be! Big things to come from the FSC familia!
