Dropped in to cross train and was thoroughly impressed by the gym's large mat area, skilled students, and inspired coaches. I would recommend training here as an experienced martial artist or as someone who is brand new to the sport. You will find a great community. I'll be back

Been here for 6 years maybe? Started with my brothers and haven't stopped! Great school with a lot of awesome fighters. Prices are great and the atmosphere of the school is always pleasant. Once you join, you are bound to feel like a part of a family. HOWEVER! Just cause everyone is friendly, doesn't mean they are weak! SAGA has some of the best fighters. Everyone has strong technique and is willing to learn. Every year the school, as a whole, becomes more challenging, more intelligent and more of a blast to spar/roll with! Definitely a go-to place for martial artists!

Great place to train! I began training here two years ago. The instructors and the higher ranked students have always pushed me to make me better and also made me feel like I belong, which is very important when you are beginning in martial arts. I have had great results from training here. I have lost near 40lbs and have become much better at every style that I train. The only regret I have is not beginning sooner. Thanks!!
