This was the first gym I’ve ever properly been too, having recently embraced all forms of movement as healing. I’ve always been so adamant about knowing, personally, if I want to do or learn something physical, bad enough, I’ll have a strong enough inclination to do so on my own. Sometimes the doing on your own is seeking guidance, and I’m grateful to have found that. The invitation to attend a Muay Thai class at Stanley Combatives felt like an opportunity and an outlet I’ve been consistently directed towards. The experience of guidance to move purposefully from knowledgeable coaches in a welcoming environment is actually relinquishing. It’s worth an hour commute for the sense of community, to feel safe and strong, to learn from those who care, it’s worth it! I appreciate my time there that much!
Such an amazing gym! I had never done any self-defense or combat training before, so I was definitely intimidated to start. The environment is so welcoming, Coach Kayla really tailored the self-defense class to suit my needs and abilities. I highly recommend!!
I've been a member of Stanley Combatives for 3 years now. I had basically no prior experience in the world of martial arts, but everyone from the students to head coch Brian Stanley was very welcoming and continue to be as such at the new location! The first coach I ever got to work with was Coach Kayla--she taught me the basics of muay thai and was very patient with me and my many mistakes. Everyone here will treat you like family if you show up, be respectful, and have fun training 💪 Unfortunately, I am leaving the state soon but oh how I wish I could take SC with me!!!! I don't think I'll ever experience something like this anywhere else. Would highly recommend this gym 🏆
I love training at Stanley Combatives! The facility is always clean/organized, they offer a wide range of classes, and everyone there is very kind and helpful, especially if you’re a beginner. Brian, the owner, is incredibly knowledgeable and truly cares about each person’s growth, both on and off the mat. Highly recommend!
I’ve been training for two years at Stanley Combatives and never regretted it!! Brian Stanley and his team of instructors are nothing short of exceptional! The Intro to Muay Thai class is organized so that new students are paired with experienced ones and given one-on-one instruction. It is a very positive environment with the student encouraging one another as we all learn together. 🥊 And did I mention…it’s really inexpensive! Brian and his crew are pationate about passing on the knowledge and skills. You can even come and try a couple classes for free!
