Best Faculty Of Sports Grand Rapids Near Me

Odio Labasura: I am fortunate to have lived and played in places where football (soccer if you like) reflects Pele's description of it being the "beautiful game" (Brasil is one of them). I have brought my sons in to play various MFA teams. Its strength is the facility. Very nice turf fields giving player a great experience to play on turf. However, I have also observed consistent behaviors and attitudes that reflect a philosophy that goes counter to how it is in other parts of the country and even internationally. Unsafe play (beyond the typical physical element of it) and taunting by some players to visiting teams and parents is common. I won't would not spend the money for kids to adopt this mentality or play. There are other organizations that train kids for what it is meant to be, the beautiful game.

Ben Adams: This is a great place to send your kids. They teach all the basics and all the advanced skills. My boy loved coming here over the summer.

Judah Nash: Welcome to America everyone, the land of equal opportunity. But wait, opportunity has a price...So your child is getting serious about soccer? Well you've come to the right place, Revolution soccer is a family friendly club that offers top tier teams in West Michigan. However to get your child into this club you will first have to go to tryouts, which are held almost a year prior to the season. Ok now your child is now on one of the many teams, unfortunately if he didn't make the A team this club has no further interest in your kid as your child doesn't help advance the club. But who cares, he's on a team, now its time to pay some fun little fees. First for someone about 14-15 years old its a measly 2K to join the team, but wait you still have to buy your three jersey's that change every couple years, that'll be another 200$. But wait there's more, now you have to spend who-knows-how-much-money on gas driving your child anywhere from Detroit to Kansas City on a regular, sometimes even flying to Florida. But wait there's MORE, now that you're driving you child to Timbuctoo you now have to spend weekends in hotel rooms and nights eating McDonalds or sit down restaurants.I don't understand programs these days, America has so much talent, but the only ones being noticed are the ones who can pay for it. Ever wonder why Europe is so good at this sport? Maybe we could learn a thing or two...

Stephanie Kreft: Probably great if your kids are older, but don't send anyone under the age of 8 to their summer day camps. I had some serious concerns that I shared with their director. Emailed him twice and never heard back.

Darin Crafts: Critical:Professionalism

Jesus: Revolution is the best

J. Kyle Geary: My son has been going here for the kids jiu-jitsu program pre and post Covid. The coaches are always great with the kids, and this gym seems to have a great community of people.I attended their Muay Thai briefly myself. The coaches are great, and the program has tons of members with varying degrees of experience.New location is pretty good too. Solid place. 👊

HONEST ABE: What a great gym! All the guys that train here are first class all the way. Nick and Dylan are a couple of excellent coaches, and they go above and beyond to help someone feel comfortable when they first get started! Best decision I’ve made in years, to start training here 💯

George Mollien: Long review, but I feel they are deserving of it.Absolutely great gym. Dan is a humble beast! He lives and breathes Jiu Jitsu. He has a genuine love (addiction ☺️) for the art.Every student gets help from the coaches, they truly focus on making each person better.I have two kids that train here as well (son and daughter). Youth class is no joke, they are getting skills!John is great with these kids. They all love going to class and have an amazing camaraderie.The fundamentals classes are great. You will be learning skills that you can apply immediately, no matter your level of experience.The environment at Triumph seems to attract great people. Everyone is super nice and willing to help each other learn. There are lots of ladies on the mats, so it is easy for women to feel comfortable coming in for the first time. All classes are co-ed and there is zero weirdness going on. By the number of young girls in the youth class, women might be taking over the sport!There are also Muay Thai and MMA classes going on all the time. They are always packed with people! There is a youth Muay Thai class as well.I obviously can't say enough good things about Triumph. Check it out for yourself, you will be happy you did!

dan thomas: Triumph is an amazingly welcoming gym with great coaches and training partners. I have been going for 6 months and I feel like everyone there is family. Highly recommend stopping in for a great workout and training sesh. No judgement here ever. All skills levels welcomed. I was brand new at BJJ walking into the gym and now I can confidently say that I am way better than I was 6 months ago. Do it for your body and your mind. Shout out to Coach Dan and John for being amazing coaches. First week is even free! See ya there.

TheKro16: I must begin by saying that I highly recommend Triumph MMA to anyone looking for a place to train and participate in fellowship. The coaches and the people here make this place special. The community atmosphere that exists here makes me happy to go train and learn with each session. I feel that it's especially easy for newcomers to transition into a routine here as it feels very inviting. Thank you to all involved!

Verano Hall: I've had a great experience here. When you come to classes frequently, you can make some great friends. It's a very welcoming atmosphere and everyone helps each other out if they're struggling with a certain technique, etc. The instructors really know what they're talking about and are very helpful.

Jacob Wheeler: Great place! It's not a place where you pay for a belt but a place where you can really learn.

Ian Keith: I travel a lot for work so have gotten the chance to visit a larger number of schools than most. Dan and his team are a great example of what the jiu jitsu culture is. Warm, inviting, and instructive while still keeping that competitive edge. Give Triumph a try, you won't regret it.
