My son and I took our first ever kickboxing class here. We had a great time at Unit 2. It was a great space and everyone was very welcoming.
Posted 1 year agoLove this class, I started it for self defense but Kickboxing is such a wonderful workout and is now my favourite activity of the week! I love instructor Ryan and have taken most of his classes but they are all really motivating and sweet!
Posted 1 year agoThe BJJ classes are structured well, with a good mix of technique drilling and live sparring. The instructors really know their stuff and are dedicated to helping each student improve. They provide personalized feedback and are patient with beginners. I appreciate how each class builds on the previous one, gradually increasing in complexity. The atmosphere is very supportive; everyone encourages each other, which makes it less intimidating for newcomers. The kickboxing workouts are high-energy and engaging, and I find myself pushing harder every session. The instructors are passionate and motivate us to give our best each class session.
Posted 1 year agoGreat place to workout, very friendly, can find me hitting the bags 4 days a week
Unit 2 Fitness has been my home for almost 3 years and I am so grateful to Professor Jeff for creating a safe and comfortable space to learn, grow, and train hard. I noticed immediately (that he remembers everyone’s names from the first time he hears it and) the family culture of the gym. Professor Jeff is a great coach- From keeping the space immaculately clean to pairing everyone up with intention to pushing people to get better, to using different coaching styles purposefully and easing newer folks into it, I highly recommend him and this gym. Although I may train other places, this will always be my home gym.
I've waited almost a year to write this review because I wanted it to be based on real world experiences. I'm a BJJ Blackbelt under Rafael "Gordinho" Lima with 20+ years of training. While I'm entirely a hobbyist, due to life and work relocations I've trained at quite a few gyms throughout the years with some very big names in the sport. In early 2024 I signed up at Unit 2 Jiu Jitsu because it's very close to my new home in Atlanta. I'm glad I did. Unit 2 Fitness is a hidden gem in the Atlanta Jiu Jitsu scene and Jeffery Boudreaux is without a doubt one of the best Jiu Jitsu coaches I have ever trained with. His personalized and passionate approach reminds me very much of my own professor. He is an absolute wealth of Jiu Jitsu knowledge and is on the mats with his students every day. The latter is a trait that is becoming exceedingly rare for Jiu Jitsu school owners as the demands of scaling a business often outpace their ability to train. Not so at Unit 2. Training always comes first with the understanding that the training experience on the mat _IS_ the product. In this day and age of social media saturation and "content creation" it can be exceedingly hard to find a school that simply lets its jiu jitsu do the talking. Unit 2 is that school in Atlanta. The coaches care and are passionate about each student's individual game and development. The focus is entirely on no-nonsense competition proven Jiu Jitsu. It is an environment where it is easy to belong. You show up, you train, you're part of the team. I highly recommend Unit 2 to anyone in the Atlanta area that is looking for a school offering world class Jiu Jitsu instruction where you don't have to worry about tripping over selfie sticks, or being bombarded with non-stop e-mail campaigns trying to upsell you on random nonsense. Come train, you'll be glad you did!
Unit 2 Fitness is a fantastic place to elevate your fitness journey. The atmosphere is welcoming and motivating, making it easy to feel at home while pushing your limits. Coaches Jeff and Ryan are exceptional—they bring a wealth of knowledge, energy, and personalized attention to every session. Jeff has an incredible ability to inspire and challenge you, tailoring workouts to meet individual goals while keeping things fun. Ryan is equally impressive, focusing on technique and ensuring that everyone understands the fundamentals. Together, they create a supportive environment where every member can thrive. If you’re looking for a fitness community that fosters growth and camaraderie, Unit 2 Fitness is the perfect choice. Highly recommend!
Jeff and the U2F crew are solid humans and the space is awesome and well kept. Keep up the good work.
Really affordable kickboxing fitness class! And very caring staff!!! Not to mention great workout!
This isn't some run of the mill fitness joint. Unit 2 Fitness is a treasure. It enhances the city and community of Decatur. My family has been participating in youth BJJ and kickboxing for well over a year, and it's made such a difference in our lives. Discipline, physical strength, mental clarity, skill mastery, social interaction, improved sleep, and motivation are just some of the benefits that come to mind. The instruction is excellent. Coaches are more than qualified and have different styles which complement each other well. They're great with kids! The kids who compete can and do win medals with what they learn. You don't have to have prior experience to start any of the classes. Warm-ups are thoughtful so that injuries are effectively prevented. Your goal could be getting into better shape generally or getting into the ring. Either way, the amount and degree of technique you choose to level up is really up to you, as the mastery of the coaches is so insanely high that you will always have something new to learn. Shout out to Coach Jeff, Coach Ryne, and all of the amazing coaches for the awesome BJJ & kickboxing instruction over the years! Thanks, guys!
I was in town for few days and attending the BJJ class was an incredible experience, thanks to Coach Jeff. His expertise, patience, and passion for teaching made every session both challenging and enjoyable. Jeff's ability to break down complex techniques and his dedication to each student's progress truly sets him apart as a great instructor. His positive energy and encouragement create a welcoming environment that inspires everyone to do their best.
Jeff & the staff are terrific. Whether it’s for your little one in the kids programs or with the adult classes. The coaching and care is exceptional. A family friendly environment with exceptional facilities. The best in Alt!
They are very hospitable and patient. Great staff and community environment, regardless of your skill level.
Unit 2 Fitness has been a wonderful experience so far. The entire staff was very friendly and attentive. From the first website inquiry to the text messages to greeting me in person for my first class, it has been a positive experience. Coach Ryne is a great instructor. He has been extremely patient with me as I am new to BJJ and how everything works, and it takes me a while for something to sink in. He is also encouraging and makes the class fun and exciting. I look forward to more classes with Coach Ryne and continuing my journey down the BJJ road.
Love this place. Everyone has been amazing & very supportive
I really love the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Kickboxing classes at Unit 2! I was searching for a new gym after moving up to Atlanta and was nervous about getting back into BJJ after 3 years off. I was immediately welcomed in and quickly realized I had nothing to be nervous about! The coaches are fun & motivating - Joining has been the best decision I’ve made all year! I highly recommend coming in and trying a class!
I’m a returning member and searched for Unit2. I am more pleased than the first time I was there. The location is easy to get, the facility is very spacious and my work out never fails me. This cannot happen without the Unit2 Team who are amazing!! Cherylyn Griffin
I'm a senior training Muay Thai. I'm impressed with Unit 2's facility, operating staff, and coaching. Even starting with no Muay Thai experience, I was welcomed and flowed right into training. All very comfortable. Facility is modern and cleaned after every class. The classes are very well run by top teaching talent. Stop in and try a class!
The staff was amazing. The class was even better. As I write this I'm pretty beat up and sore but I'll be going back as soon as I'm ready. Marshall is a great kickboxing/Muay Thai teacher.
Tried a kickboxing class today and it was super fun. I do not consider myself an athletic person but I was able to keep up and felt challenged. The energy of the place is inviting and not pretentious. Our coach, Ryan, was helpful and fun. Im excited to return.
Started working out at Unit 2 in the old days when it first opened on Ponce, stayed with it until a move out of town in 2018. Drove back in to work out with them during the pandemic. Still look forward to getting back in for a workout despite the distance. These folks are top quality. Couldn't recommend more highly.
Wish I had found this place sooner. Great value and I haven't had the feeling of every muscle in my body getting a workout for along time like this. Highly recommended.
I love Unit 2!! Coaches are fabulous and it’s a family affair! I go; my kids go! It’s my favorite hour of the day! I’m so much stronger thanks to Jeff and Ryne are such great motivators!
Great place with excellent instruction. Highly recommend checking it out.
Top notch bjj gym. Definitely pay it a visit if you appreciate the art! Great gym for women to train bjj!
A very welcoming environment, the BJJ team is awesome and the coaches always make sure you push yourself. Highly recommend.
My child has received Jiu Jitsu instruction with Unit 2 Fitness for several years. Our son has tried many sport activities since he was 5 years old, but this sport has the best value.I have watched my son develop skills, gain confidence, and have a sense of fulfillment; he loves it.The coaches are what makes this place special. If my son didn't feel a connection, he wouldn't stay, so it speaks volumes that he continues year round -twice a week.The owner-operator is very involved, and I have confidence that he cares about each student. He informs us on the tournaments we should enter, and he and the other coaches are present to help our kids in the matches. I highly recommend!
My wife and I really enjoy there programs and would recommend any new comer or experienced mixed martial artist to choose here. Ryne P. is our coach and he is a very caring and professional coach we appreciate
My experience here was great. The coaches and teammates really care about you and the instructors are extremely experienced and detailed. Only left because I moved far away. Would advise anyone to join!
Amazing instructors & fantastic program! Takes your fitness to a whole other level!
Instructors are great, space is clean and welcoming - love this place!
I have been training at Unit 2 Fitness for nearly 6 years now, and I can't recommend this place enough. Small business level attention-to-detail and customer service, with expert level instruction. Most importantly a focus on a family-friendly environment and member relationships, rather than the churn & burn model that a lot of new gyms offer. Come try a class and see for yourself!
This is absolutely the BEST gym! The boxing and jujitsu classes are amazing! Not only do you get a FABULOUS workout, but you will meet a ton of GREAT people. Jeff, the owner, hosts a lot of community events for the members, such as cook outs and pot lucks-with fun for the whole family (including the kids)! Ryan works alongside Jeff, and is nothing short of AWESOME! They are both great teachers (encouraging, patient, and helpful) and make you feel right at home! The gym itself is huge and it consists of a matted boxing area, a matted jujitsu area, and even a small gym with weights and work out equipment. If you are looking for some great workouts, making some new friends, or even an extra-curricular activity for yourself and/or your kids after school, I would definitely check out this place! 10/10!
The Fitness Kickboxing classes are a great workout, and there are plenty of classes at different times to choose from. You can go whenever it fits your schedule.
Great coaches, nice people, clean environment, good practice spirit
Excellent place with excellent people and excellent instructors. If you want to REALLY get into shape and/or learn self-defense techniques that actually work, join this gym.
It’s been a wonderful experience going to Unit 2. It’s very family friendly and accepting of everyone. I learn a lot in my classes and feel right at home each day.
Unit 2 Fitness is awesome! I am currently taking the kickboxing classes and I love it! Not only do I get an excellent workout in a short amount of time, I am having so much fun. So glad I discovered Unit 2 Fitness.
I've had a great experience with a Unit 2 in the kickboxing classes. The instructors are the best and look for everyone no matter what your experience is. After each class I feel like a new man. My daughter also take Jujitsu and they love it. It teaches them defense skills and respect for one another.
Amazing instruction, great people, and a fantastic atmosphere. Unit 2 is the place to train if you want to start jiu-jitsu in a friendly environment that will give you lifelong skills or get your BJJ to the next level! The kids’ program is well-structured and available for all ages. The head coach is a super detailed world-class black belt competitor (Army vet) that knows very well what is talking about.
My daughter started taking jiujitsu classes at Unit 2 around 8-9 years ago. She's now 16, and just reached the highest youth rank in youth jiujitsu, green belt. Along the way, she's won many (we lost count) tournaments, placed 2nd at Junior Nationals twice, and grown physically, emotionally, and socially - thanks in large part to jiujitsu. She started taking kickboxing classes this year, and also started helping out as an assistant teacher in the kid's BJJ program. To say she loves Unit 2 is an understatement: she's there five days a week, 2-3 hours a day. Ryne has been an important positive influence in her life, and Jeff has been a rock-solid leader at Unit 2 for the entire time we've been there. If anyone knows about Unit 2, we do: we've seen their consistency day after day, month after month, year after year. This is an authentic gym, through and through.
I love the Unit 2 family! Friendly and warm staff, and the kickboxing classes are awesome workouts and great stress relief. I always feel empowered and re-set when I leave. Highly recommend!
Great Fitness Center even though it small classes it feels like one-on-one training. I have noticed a big difference in my energy and my fitness level. I joined a little over a year ago and I will say after every class it still feels like the first time.
Unit 2 is a fun place to get kickboxing classes. I’m older and enjoy them. Music is good, too! The front desk staff and instructors are nice, patient, and energetic!
Jeff and Ryne are excellent! Give this place a try, you won't regret it!
I've been a member since March of this year. I've thoroughly enjoyed my experience with Unit 2. I just got back into kickboxing and Ryne's classes are an amazing workout in a fun and supportive environment. Go!
Unit 2 is a great, family friendly gym with instructors that really care about their students! Can’t recommend this place enough!
Best place to work out!!! The instructors are as cool as the day is long, taking the time to show the proper form in order to reach your goals. I absolutely love this place because it is exactly the therapy I need!!!
Great place to train with knowledgeable coaches.
Great instructive tough kickboxing classes
Absolutely love my work outs here. They’re a great stress reliever and I felt stronger and more in shape quickly. The atmosphere is laid back, nonjudgmental, and super motivational. Highly recommend it.
I just started but have been really happy here so far. The space is large, lots of windows and sunlight, and probably the cleanest gym I’ve ever visited. I have never done kickboxing before and walking into a new gym can feel intimidating but I have felt really welcomed and comfortable here. The classes are challenging but amazing instructor Ryne makes everything easy to follow and is right there if you need extra help. I love it and am so glad I signed up!
Definitely should check this place out if you want to give your fitness journey an extra boost
I love my gym!!! Class today was extraordinarily awesome. The owner, Jeff, is a great coach. He pushes us to keep going and give more into our workout. Ryne and Craig are awesome coaches too! There's plenty of class times to chose from for kickboxing and it's pretty clean for a gym. Overall, I'd recommend at least trying it for yourself...you'll probably love it too!!
I walked in here about 2.5 years ago on a whim and it changed my life. I really can't say enough good things about this place, the instructor, and the jiu jitsu community here. Jiu jitsu was a catalyst for being healthier in my life; mentally, physically, and spiritually. The coach, Jeffery Boudreaux, is a good man (sometimes hard to find in a profession predicated on violence), and dare I say... a friend. What can this jiu jitsu gym offer that no other gym can? Top notch instruction from a legit, tournament-winning black belt, who teaches every class. A great training environment for people of all body types and skill levels, and a small but enthusiastic and successful competition team if that is what you want to do. And most importantly, training partners that are warm and welcoming and will treat you like family.
The instruction I have received so far, exceeds all expectations! Knowledgeable and passionate instructors make learning Muay Thai fun! It's intense, but that's what I wanted and needed ! The support staff is courteous and professional ! The environment and facilities are conducive to reaching your physical fitness goals ! Thumbs up to Unit 2 Fitness!
I have been with Unit 2 Fitness for 6 years, I followed them from their previous location to their new location in Decatur. The staff is always friendly and communicative and the classes are a great workout, there's definitely a sense of community and getting stronger together!
I have always been intimidated by gyms but I don't feel that way at Unit 2 Fitness. Everyone is encouraging, welcoming and pushes me to want to do my best. I truly appreciate the environment and the workout is AWESOME!!!
Started training BJJ at the end of January and instantly became addicted. The atmosphere is unlike any other fitness gym I’ve been apart of in the best way possible. Coach Ryne helped me knock out my BJJ 101 classes easily by using his gift of being able to explain techniques to beginners in a way that is extremely understandable. I highly advise anyone who’s on the fence about learning BJJ or just wanting to get in shape to come in and try the free class they offer. It could change your life like it’s changed mine.
I first joined 8 years ago and was pretty consistent going a few times a week until work and then relocation got in the way. Excited they are now in Decatur. The space is GREAT! Airy, bright and modern (not that I had issues with the old place). I love how much I get out of just one kickboxing class, full body workout and mental therapy. I also like seeing the same staff from when I first joined. It was nice how even after a prolonged absence I was remembered. Looking forward to many more years!
Unit 2 fitness was my first experience trying kickboxing and they made me love it! Everything about this gym, from the atmosphere to the entire staff/trainers is professional but friendly. They make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in the door while also training you to know exactly what you need to do to get the results you want! I am so bummed I moved, otherwise they would be my go to gym forever. Highly highly recommend checking them out!
I did CrossFit at Unit2Fitness for five years when they were located at the Midtown location. I absolutely loved the coaching, community, and personal attention as I started my fitness journey. I was someone who couldn't do a pull up when I started and can now do muscle ups. The results were amazing. Jeff is an extremely passionate and dedicated fitness professional and always willing to work with clients to help them achieve their goals. They are no longer continuing with CrossFit in the new location but wish them all the best!
I’ve been a unit 2 member for over a year now and it was one of the best things that happened to me in 2020. Kickboxing helped transformed my body and confidence and I was in the best shape I’ve ever been. If you want personalized attention and good quality equipment this is the place for you. Jeff and Ryan are the best trainers out there and will do wonders with your body and confidence. Rahul
I have been training at Unit2Fitness since 2016 with its striking program (Muay Thai, kickboxing). I have learned a lot since then and greatly improved my martial art technique, and physique. It has been a great experience and healthy routine for me to come to Unit2 several times a week. Jeff and Ryne are great people, passionate and professional. Jeff has been paying great attention to the experience at the gym and constantly striving to let people make the most of the gym. Especially during the COVID, he has implemented several social-distancing and cleaning routines that helps keeping the gym safe. Ryne has awesome personalities and his kickboxing classes are super enjoyable and rewarding. It is going to be even better with the gym relocating to Decatur, which has natural sunlight and bigger space. I wound recommend it to my friends and in fact I have already done so with two of my friends.
Great gym! Friendly atmosphere and family oriented. Very clean, 10/10!
Rewarding and uplifting training BJJ at Unit 2. The coaches and community are welcoming, they have a good time while training hard and being attentive. Respect and love to the BJJ community here.
The community here is seriously incredible. The staff is down to earth and always wants to help you improve. The BJJ classes are some of the most fulfilling experiences I've ever had and the instructors are fantastic. They know when to give you detailed instruction and when stay back and let you figure out your own way. This is a place to train, make friends and gain new skills. If you like no-BS approaches to training and genuinely friendly people this is the place for you. I have nothing but respect for the folks I've met here. Go learn BJJ!
I’ve been a member of Unit 2 for at least six years. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a real MMA gym staffed with great, knowledgeable instructors. I’ve trained in the cardio kickboxing classes and BJJ classes. Both are challenging but rewarding.
Unit 2 is a fitness community of kind, passionate, unique individuals. You will be greeted with openness and consideration when you show up for their kickboxing, cross-fit, or BJJ classes. The staff maintains cleanliness and safety procedures during these times which allows for a healthy experience. I cannot recommend this place enough, for they have supported me and all their other members beyond any other gym I’ve been to. They cultivate an environment where you can ask for help, discuss your goals, and celebrate your accomplishments. Try their free week but expect to stay because it truly is a lovely place.
Outstanding owner, instructors and staff. Given the situation we are all in, they have gone, and continue to go above and beyond to provide not only an environment in which you feel safe, but also an outstanding workout.
Amazing place to train. I train BJJ and lift weights and there is no better environment than Unit 2
The best gym I’ve ever trained at. Best jiujitsu training in Atlanta.
Great training facility great coaches one of the best Jui Jitsu coaches in the world. Muay Thai crossfit boxing and great training equipment.
I’ve been going here for about 4 months for kickboxing class. Wesley, the coach, is very knowledgeable, and makes the class challenging and fun. Definitely recommend it!
Excellent Service, it's a little small but it has everything I'll ever need. It is also a fantastic location, kind of in the middle of everything. If you're thirsty after your workout there is Torched Hop right across the street to rehydrate with.
Unit2 is a gym that is small, but mighty. I've been a member since 2016 and have taken kickboxing but mainly sick to lifting weights and Crossfit. The coaches and trainers here are top notch - I'm over 40 and find that they are able to make sure I am training hard but not going to injure myself, the coaches are very good at scaling and teaching good form - weather for beginners or masters athletes and everyone in between. I wanted to mention cancelations as it seems some reviewers had issues- My daughter did have a membership and I needed to cancel it. The cancelation process was really easy and not a hassle whatsoever. I just had to email the gym with a 30 day notice and they stopped the billing at the end of the 30 days. Unit2 is a great gym for anyone who wants to get fit in a no-frills atmosphere.
I go to kickboxing class at Unit 2. The location is walkable from Tech, and the instructors are always really encouraging and kind. They learn your name and everyone at the gym is super friendly. It's always a pleasure going!
Top notch facilities. Top notch trainers and staff. Two thumbs up.
Love this gym! The people that work there are always nice and very helpful. I do kickboxing and jiu jitsu and all the instructors are awesome. I was a little intimidated getting started but I was welcomed with open arms. Highly recommend.
You must try out this gym if you are serious about training! The instructors here are amazing and second to none. I train here for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and I work hard every time I step on the mat! Whether it is regular class or tournament training I am never disappointed and my skill level increases every time I train here! This gym has everything you need, I recommend this to everyone who wants to push themselves and get better.
Great Trainers and People, A Real gym if your serious Give them a Chance, you won't regret the choice.
The best instructors ever !! Roberto traven awesome instructor
I've been at Unit 2 since the end of 2011, and I've been happy with the place. I came here for the jiu-jitsu. If you don't know, Roberto Traven is the BJJ instructor here. His team is a competition team that does quite well in tournaments. Many of Traven's BJJ students win or place in the major tournaments. I saw that someone else left a bad review saying they were sent to collections when they tried to suspend their membership. I've heard that a lot of gyms are notorious for not letting their members cancel or freeze their memberships, but Unit 2 has always accommodated me when I wanted to freeze my membership.
I will give it to you straight. Unit 2 is not cheap nor is it pretty. But you know what? When fitness is your priority those things should not matter. And Unit 2 is pretty awesome for that. You are not paying to walk on the treadmill for 3 hours. Nor are you paying for tons of mirrors to take selfies. Nor are you paying for folks to flex around the machines to talk about how hard they train. You are paying to work out with top notch trainers who train you to be as fit as they are. You are paying to work out with trainers who have a mixed martial arts mentality. That is NOT a LA fitness mentality. Its a way of life and they are serious. They help you, but they don't pat you on the shoulder and accept your excuses. And the gym is not pretty. Its not fancy machines or lockers rooms with saunas. Its a gym with a boxing ring, with heavy weights, barbells, kettlebells and a kickboxing ring with heavy bags. The back has mats for the MMA stuff which I dont venture into because I am not closely qualified for that stuff. There is kickboxing and crossfit for us normal folks. They offer: Kickboxing Crossfit Jiu-Jitsu Muay Thai Yea the serious stuff. And other serious stuff. I recommend Unit 2 for some serious training. They focus on things like form, nutrition and getting healthy as a way of life. I remember once a trainer said to me regardless of what you do in the gym, if you cannot move your own body weight in a life saving situation, you are in trouble. I been hooked ever since. Oh and they have kids classes too. No, not a kids rooms, kids classes. Yesterday they were punching it out in the ring while I was kicking a bag. I can appreciate kids getting some real activity in their lives.
Been going here for years. Great gym, great instructors. Not your cookie cutter LA Fitness type experience, this is a place to push yourself, get sweaty, and get fit.
Have really enjoyed the crossfit classes. Instructors are great, I like the facility and the comraderie. Very fair prices.
Best gym in Atlanta, fair price, top notch instructors, so many classes to choose from!
Small, but great gym. I had boxed in college and was looking for a boxing gym upon moving to Atlanta. Found this place in Midtown, went through the free week trial, and finally decided to sign up. The instructors are fabulous and the desk staff is nice. For the price of kickboxing ONLY, it is not bad, however the other classes are a bit pricey and the contract has a lot of limitations and rules. Due to my busy work schedule, I unfortunately am not able to make some of the classes on a consistent basis, so I wish there were more options regarding class times. The parking lot is also very limited and fills up quickly, so I recommend getting to class early.
Great gym! Staff are way chill compared to the competition. I would give 5 Stars if they could just fix the parking lot and get some more space for the kickboxing classes.
Good gym. Took a trial class there and couldn't walk for a week was so sore. Be sure to warm up prior to the class and at least watch a youtube video on how to kick correctly. Being a newbie I didn't know and hurt my ankle. The coach was good but the routines are a bit of advanced if you have never taken a boxing or kickboxing class before.
It was a cool experience and nice building overall. When it comes to working with you when things come up they really don't want to.Ive paused my contract and they still charged me and insisted on giving me a credit and some big shpeel about their system instead of just refunding me.The kickboxing was fun but too intense for my body so I've chosen to go with Tai Chi and cancel but they haven't returned my email which to me isn't professional.
The gym experience is amazing. Great classes. But once you sign the contract, it's a done deal. Not very friendly at all in terms to things coming up besides the 3 month freeze. I would rather pay per class than sign for a contract. Read it well.
I am a former student at Unit 2,I was there for 3 weeks but I left because I was told I was their karate was not my style but thanks to them I found Atlanta Kick and became even better I am now even closer to getting my black belt. When I get my black belt I will give their karate a second chance.
Responding to your response, I have the emails, they are pretty black and white I can post them if you want. I don’t like when grown ass men try and intimidate young women.
It's okay. They don't really focus on technique. The bags look they could use some refurbishing. And it's not as enjoyable as other places. And the facilities are kind of a dump
Unfortunately, this gym buries its membership and cancellation policy deep in fine print when you sign up. After my free trial, I expressed that I was interested in trying classes for one month unlimited. I was not told that I was being signed up for a membership that would automatically charge me every month, and that there was a strict 30-day cancellation policy. Of course, this information is in the membership agreement in fine print. However, it seems that this gym buries this information when you sign up and, from my experience, failed to verbally communicate this to me. Additionally, because it was my first month at the gym, it would have been impossible for me to provide a 30-day cancelation notice because it would have required me to call and cancel my membership when I did not have a membership. When I communicated with the customer service company and person they outsource their membership information to requesting a refund, he told me that they do not provide refunds and, very insultingly, that I did not understand 30-day cancelation policies. They are also not very responsive. I am disappointed by this entire experience considering that I am going through a financially challenging time. I wish this gym and the company and person they choose to outsource their membership requests to treated its customers with more flexibility and understanding. I also wish they would verbally communicate its cancelation policies and the exact terms of the membership.
The gym itself was ok except for the smell, since it is underground and poorly ventilated. However, the problem lies with their predatory membership practices. Impossible to cancel membership, then they have foreign collections agents calling you at all hours of the night to demand huge amounts of money. Stay away from this company.
Great training if you are 100% healthy and life is going smoothly. Need to consider the "what if" scenarios before signing their contract. They are not customer focused in trying to resolve issues, all about sticking you with the bill at the end of the day. Therefore they will convince you to sign a contract that is beneficial to them and then use that contract against you if any issues arise. I signed a 12 month contract (August 2015-August2016) after they recommended it despite me informing them that I was in the military and would have to leave at a moment's notice. I soon realized I needed knee surgery and therefore could not use the facilities to train. After the 3 month freeze (they will not let you go longer than that) Unit 2 fitness continued to charge me the monthly dues (about $100) since I was under contract until my military orders came into effect. Without those they would continue to charge me despite me having medical statements from doctors and rehab therapists stating I could not use the facilities due to recovery.
