This places is great! They are serious about training, safety, and good community. Whether you've had experience elsewhere or are coming in the door as a newbie, they are always welcoming and will get you started. Tuan and the gym offer a lot of training options from basic fitness to serious fight training. As small woman, I have to compliment the trainers and the gym members (majority male) for being respectful, encouraging, and training with me for real. I cannot say enough good things- if you want to train in Philly, check out Fight Firm and Cool Hearts, they will deliver!

Joining Fight Firm as a novice to the sport of MMA, I did not know what to expect. Immediately, I was treated with respect and given straight forward advice. I signed up for both 1 on 1 training sessions as well as the group classes- not only did I learn a tremendous amount in a short period of time, I also did so while having the best workouts of my life! Devon and Al-B are great instructors who truly care about their students and are vested in their success. They do a great job of integrating different talent levels during the class so that everyone is put in a position to improve. Whether you're a pro fighter, starting out, or trying to get back in shape- I highly recommend Fight Firm

Fight Firm is an awesome gym for any level participant. The instructors are knowledgeable and friendly and the rest of the clientele are friendly and always willing to help. The first moment I stepped into the gym I thought, "Wow, this must be what Rocky felt like!!" Awesome place highly recommend it!

I've been to just about every MMA/Boxing gym within a two mile radius of Center City and Fight Firm is hands-down the best MMA training facility in Philadelphia. It is the real thing. I have been a member for two months now. My favorite class is boxing fundamentals class with Alby (sp?). It is a workout AND a learning experience. Devon, who is actually an accomplished MMA fighter, teaches Muay Thai and he makes training in a violent sport FUN. I like that it is a beginner-friendly gym. At first I was hesitant that I would have to fight someone the first week but I was quickly put at ease. I never have to actually fight someone but if I am confident that I will can kick someone's a$$ if I ever needed to defend myself. If you are looking for a nice polished gym like LA Fitness, then Fight Firm probably isn't going to be the place for you. They are not a "commercial" gym and do not pretend to be. I strongly recommend Fight Firm for anyone serious about getting in shape, learning how to fight, or both.

Tried this place out last winter. I thought this was a really good gym and I felt a spirit of camaraderie in the air which was really nice. I got the impression this gym holds a great community of men and women. I just felt unconformable with the coach/teacher in the session during my trial; felt somewhat judged the entire time so didn't really come back. Despite this, I would definitely still recommend! Just not for me
