Amazing gym. The head coach Trevor is very knowledgeable. Every coach is elite. I’ve been to gyms all over the country and none compare to the expertise, environment and community you’ll find here. Couldn’t recommend it enough whether you’re a hobbyist or want to compete and fight.

This is, bar none, the best gym in the whole triangle area, probably North Carolina. All of the coaches are phenomenal at what they do so you're getting training at a high level, with a strong focus on fundamentals, and yet the space(/the people in it) feels easygoing in a way that's just fun to be around day after day. Not just the coaches, but even other students are extremely helpful as well, and many are more than willing to offer assistance, both in and outside of classes, while still being humble if a given situation calls for them to say "I'm not sure about this, but I can refer you to [person/resource]." And the enthusiasm both coaches and fellow students share for seeing progress, it's just wholesome and it's infectious. You're getting honest, straightforward feedback; but when you struggle with something, then you finally nail it and they seem just as hyped as you are, it's the best feeling! There's something to do nearly every day of the week, so you can be in the gym as much as you want. Most days offer a bevy of classes for strikers, grapplers, and those interested in MMA (and now with a specially dedicated Hometown Strength and Performance Centre), all throughout the day, in addition to private training available. So whatever your schedule, there's always a chance to get into something. Whether you wanna compete, learn for real-world applications, or you're just training to get a bit more activity in your life, it's all love. And it's not the kinda place where you're in there fighting for your life on day one, so you can actually take the time to learn in a safe environment with competent individuals, because you're not stressed about just trying to survive if you've never trained before. But also if you're a competitor looking to get in work with great training partners, we got that too.

My daughter and I were visiting Raleigh for a week and had a drop-in class at the Hometown Martial Art and ended up going there everyday. Amazing coaches, great space and super friendly community. Would defo go back next time we are in town again!

I’ve officially been training at Hometown for a year and only have incredible things to say about this gym! The owners, Trevor and Talia, and the other coaches, are some of nicest people I’ve ever met. Not only do they teach great classes but they genuinely care about their students and want to see them succeed. I started with just Boxing but because of their encouragement I now train Muay Thai and MMA. I can confidently say that every class is intentional and I learn something new every single day. This is definitely the best gym I've ever trained at and I don’t see myself training anywhere else. If you’re looking for the right gym for you, you’ve found it!

One of the best gyms I’ve been to in this area. The technique in classes is always solid, and everyone there feels like family. Good option for beginners looking to learn how to fight, people who only want a good technique based workout, and for more experienced fighters who train to compete.
