Came in as a complete beginner with only a background in Taekwondo. I was immediately welcomed in by all coaches and people in the gym from the first day and began improving immediately. Outside of the culture, the best part of the gym is that if you put your head down and prove that you are there to grind and shed sweat and blood, you'll be taken in like a family member. Darren and Henry do an incredible job along with all other coaches - there are few better gyms out there that have perfected the balance of cultivating an environment of hard work/grit and genuine love/support. If you're looking to become a person trained in skilled violence or improve upon a solid base, there is no better gym than Recon.
Posted 9 months agoVery welcoming and all - inclusive gym for beginners and professionals alike. Great rates for the pro level of training provided. Everyone is super kind and helpful. 10/10
Posted 10 months agoRecon is more than just a gym, it's a family. Not only have I been pushed beyond my limits and out of my comfort zone, I have been welcomed with such warmth since day one. I love the wide variety of classes and the enthusiasm of every coach. I started at Recon to accelerate my postpartum journey and to my surprise it was one of the greatest transformations my body (and mind) has ever gone through. I'm now two months postpartum again and back at it. Whether you are a beginner or seasoned athlete, Recon is for you!
Posted 6 years agoRecon is unlike other gyms, and that’s what makes it such an amazing place. From the moment you walk in the door, you are treated like you belong, because to them, you do. Whether you are a COMPLETE beginner looking for someone to guide you through working out for the first time ever, are training professionally, or somewhere in between, Recon has a class for you. They even have a kids program! The coaches are some of the best in their field, and encourage everyone to push themselves while having fun. No two classes are the same, and you will walk out with a sense of accomplishment, some great technique and a lot of sweat. There is no other gym that can even compare to what you get here. Recon is more than a gym, they are a family, and when you walk through their doors, you become a part of that family. I cannot recommend them enough!
Posted 6 years agoRecon is unlike any other gym I have been to because it's the BEST gym! If you're like me at all - not the biggest fan of working out, hesitant on starting something out of your comfort zone, and overall self conscience but need to make that change for yourself - start with Recon. I have never felt so comfortable at a gym and I can honestly say that I look forward to going to the gym now... YUP! The trainers and coaches are super friendly/welcoming and genuinely care about you and your fitness journey. I started with the 8-week Beginners Bootcamp to learn the basic boxing techniques and I now have a monthly membership doing the weekly box-fit classes with Eric, and work with Mandy on the weekends doing personal training. You could say I'm addicted. JOIN RECON! You won't regret it.
