I have joined Logic jiu jitsu around November of last year. Nervous to get out of my comfort zone, logic and their staff were patient , understanding and willing to work with me as I started my journey. Not only that , their environment is like nothing else. I have come to know great people who I call my teammates and friends. logic builds a great team comraderie and is attentive to the safety of all its members as they keep their facility clean and prepped with first aid if needed. If you are looking to start training Muay Thai or jiu jitsu , this is the place to be!!

Dropped into a no-gi class last night at Logic Philly. Awesome, clean facility with a ton of mat space and nice locker rooms. The staff was very accommodating to me as a visitor, as were the training partners. The instructor showed some nice techniques from the front headlock position which I'll definitely remember. The training was tough but safe. Highly recommend if you're visiting Philly.

Started at Logic 5 years ago. Have been attending on and off ever since. Love this place. Amazing instructors and class environment. A lot of wonderful people here. Kristian, Dennis, Markee are great leaders and instructors to name a few. There are many more at the gym. Got to meet AJ today at the front desk. Great kid as well.

I joined Logics Muay Thai class in August. I was new to all of it and would highly recommend this gym to anyone at any skill level. The staff is friendly, supportive and knowledgeable. Logic has a great sense of community and I have learned a ton in such little time.

Especially my son who lives with downs syndrome and autism , Logics has been a place of hope and belonging while learning how to stay fit to defend himself. Thank you to the awesome faculty, especially Coach Marqee your the best!
