I dropped in for open mat this past Saturday. What I found was an incredibly friendly atmosphere, welcoming training partners, and a clean and accommodating gym. They also had two showers which is always a plus! If I lived in C-Ville I know where I’d be!

Been a minute, but dropped in for their Halloween open mat - friendly staff, good rolls. Felt like home.
