Strikezone Mixed Martial Arts

An amazing gym full of amazing people. This place really changed my life for the better. This is the place where I found myself, where I regained my self esteem and became who I am today. When I came to the gym I was a nervous timid kid who was bullied in school. I was so worried about what everyone thought about me, I thought I would be made fun of. Quite the opposite happened, I was welcomed by our awesome martial arts team and accepted as their own. Over the course of a year and a half I developed my boxing game, kicking game and clinch work all while regaining confidence in myself. And about a year and two amateur fights later I became one of the official assistant coaches at strike zone! If your looking for a good gym To learn Muay Thai or improve your striking game our gym’s the best place to do it. 10/10 would recommend!

This is an amazing martial arts gym for people of all backgrounds and experience levels. It's worth a visit whether you are a long time fan of MMA or if you just want a good, consistent cardio/conditioning workout. Coaches Derek, Matt, and Chris all do a fantastic job of giving in-depth instruction and critiques during classes while being encouraging and respectful. Even in a short amount of time, I feel like I learned so much from this gym and I am much more confident in my physicality. The environment is great and everyone is extremely friendly, totally a good spot for people who have never tried a combat sport before. Not once did I feel intimidated or overwhelmed; everyone is so supportive of one another. The gym really starts to feel like family the longer you commit to it. They also just got a new facility which is in the works right now but classes are still being run. I highly recommend dropping in for a trial if you're on the fence, you are sure to have a great time!

Signing up here was one of the best decisions I’ve made in a long time. I’m not only learning a new skill, but I feel fitter, more confident, and noticeably less stressed day to day. I’ve already seen real improvements in my conditioning, and I’ve been steadily losing weight without feeling burnt out. Training has genuinely become my favorite part of the day since I started. The community is what really sets this gym apart. Everyone is welcoming, supportive, and focused on getting better. No egos, no judgment. I was nervous going into my first few classes, but it didn’t take long at all before I felt comfortable and at home. I’d highly recommend this gym to anyone looking to improve their fitness, learn something new, and be part of a great environment.

We’ve had such a positive experience at StrikeZone Mixed Martial Arts, especially thanks to Coach Derek. My son Cole is six, and we were looking for the right fit—somewhere that could help him build confidence, focus, and discipline in a fun, supportive environment, while also teaching proper technique from the start. Coach Derek was amazing from the start—he made Cole feel welcome right away and took the time to connect with him on day one. Before his first class, Coach Derek brought Cole in for a private 1-on-1 session to ensure the class was the right fit for his skill set. That kind of thoughtful approach really stood out. His first class was awesome! The very next day, Derek sent a sweet follow-up text about how well Cole did and what they’d be working on next. He runs things differently—not just providing great instruction, but an fantastic customer experience. Before finding StrikeZone, we tried a few classes at popular jiu-jitsu gym nearby. The classes were overcrowded—with more than 20 kids at a time—and Cole had a hard time staying focused and engaged. At StrikeZone, the difference is night and day. The classes are very small with a semi-private feel. They provide clear instruction, encouragement, and a strong focus on technique. Coach Derek provides lots of positive feedback and fun. Cole looks forward to class. He’s not only learning martial arts but also important life skills like respect and perseverance. I felt so confident in StrikeZone and its leadership that I signed up for a year-long commitment—and I’m so glad I did. Highly recommend StrikeZone—and especially Coach Derek—for anyone looking for a more focused, supportive martial arts experience for their child.

My experience has been nothing but positive since I have begun training at Strikezone since November 2025. As someone who formerly trained within Karate many years ago, I was at first intimidated by trying this new style fighting. When I walked in for my first session for Clinch and Knee class, I thought I would be a fish out of water. However, my instructors including both Coaches Derek and Chris showed me kindness and guided me on how to train effectively. Since my first day, I have became close to those who I have trained with and learned so much on how to train effectively and consistently. If I had any questions or concerns about making to class, policies, or training techniques, Coach Derek answered all my questions in the clearest and most informative ways possible. My Brazilian Jui Jitsu class was also difficult and found myself losing most of my sparing sessions. When I informed coach Matt was understanding, knowledgeable, and friendly by giving showing me all of my errors and guided me on a step by step guide on how to perfectly execute submission takedowns. I have became more confident not only as a person but as a fighter as well. If you want to learn how to become healthy and confident as a person by learning various fighting techniques, come to Strikezone!
