Summary: This MMA gym is not a military-friendly establishment, they are in it for the money first and foremost, and they put no common sense or human elements into their business. I knew I was getting deployed, and I knew things are unstable during deployments. I told them this, and asked if there would be any issues with it, and the guy assured me there was none, but that they can only sign people up for a minimum of 6 months so we'd do things that way. I paid $120 down, and $120 for the first month and then I got news. I got promoted and that means I don't get a choice: I have to go do training I wasn't planning for. When I informed them of this, they said I'd have to pay 1/3 of the remaining contract to breach it. LA Fitness, T-mobile, and another small gym I was a part of never gave me any trouble over it, and were understanding that I don't choose to go.. but this place treated it as if I were being an irresponsible adult that didn't want to fulfill my obligations. They said over the phone, "Well, you had a choice not to join with us, and we didn't force you to sign.." .. They did one worse: they made it seem like it was such a friendly and caring place so I'd at least have a chance. I had a kid that didn't really know what he was doing sign me up at the place, and this guy saying he said all this stuff to me that he didn't say or make clear. I know people have to pay to break their contracts all the time for whatever reason, but usually people waive this fee for military obligations. He then proceeded to say, "You should do the adult thing and fulfill your contract obligations. And if you weren't sure, you shouldn't have signed up with us at all." To tell a military person they shouldn't even be given a chance to live like a civilian is just wrong. I told them that the math just doesn't add up from a common sense stand point: In the end, I went to 4 classes with them.. not enough to learn anything. And I'll have paid $400 for those four classes because of the early termination contract fee. But he just didn't care. The contract, and the money, were all he cared about. While I think they are a legitimate business, they do NOT care about the person they're signing on, they are not military friendly, and they're too cold hearted for a small gym--small gyms pride themselves on having loyal, friendly family-like atmospheres. This place is just in it for the money. Do NOT sign up here.

The person posting this remark is not actually the member who joined or even stepped one foot in our facility, but a relative of the person involved. I say this with confidence because she was on the phone today with us discussing this situation.

All members are given a free consultation and private lesson before joining. During this time we discuss their living / work arrangements to make sure they will be in the area as we only offer 6 month and 12 month term agreements. We do not recommend that anyone join if they are not going to be in the area for this amount of time. We have turned away many potential customers from joining for this reason and do not pressure people to join if they are uncomfortable with this arrangement, That being said, unforeseen circumstances do arise (like relocation) and for this reason we have an early termination clause that each customer is given in writing and signs as part of the agreement. The early termination clause saves the member a huge sum when compared to the remaining balance on the agreement as is designed to be a compromise between the member and the establishment who have legal contract for services.

As for only attending 4 lessons all I can say is that we have no control over this. If you were to rent a Porshe from a rental car company and chose to park it in your garage rather than drive it, would that be the fault of the rental car company or the fault of the renter for not taking advantage of a great opportunity?

When the real person (not the person writing this post) called and was explained the cancellation terms she was actually happy and expressed gratitude for working with her to be released from the agreement. She was also offered a 1 month credit to be used in the future when she returns home for leave, etc.

At the moment our school sponsors over 10 members who train for free due to financial hardships. This is not because we are only out to gouge people for money. We have a long list of testimonials from our members who feel that our school is a great place to train and has been a great investment in themselves and their families. We also have a large percentage of our adult programs who have served in the armed forces and law enforcement along with many other professions. We are not prejudiced against military personnel and that accusation is just silly. We do, however, expect people to honor the terms of their agreements once the have joined regardless of their profession.
