Area 502 mma is the best gym that I have ever stepped into. For one the experience and knowledge that’s in area 502 is really unmatched. Head coach Phillip Perkins who is a black belt knows just about everything you can when it comes to marital arts. And he has trained more fighters then probably anyone else in the state a lot of those fighters now coaching as well. So to sum it up if you want to learn marital arts there isn’t a better place to learn then area 502. But what really sets it off to me is the gym is really like a family. The staff the coaches so many diff students of all types come together to achieve similar goals together. Everyone wants to see you achieve what you set out to do and when you do are genuinely happy for you or if you fail there there to pick you up and go after it again. Best coaching best team great youth program great boxing program great prices as well

I used to train with the owner back when he was a kid with a dream in the back of a discount gym with a red tabby group of guys. He sure has come along way. The gym is great, and clean. The people are skilled, yet friendly. Kids are around so it’s family friendly. There’s an entire boxing ring! You have to get here!

This is a great place, especially for kids it seems, out experience has been good so far. Even with the most beginner level stuff they are helpful and patient. Going to try out some of the adult classes soon, great way to stay or get into shape, and learn some things along the way.
