I transitioned into Glory MMA for their BJJ program after a year of training grappling in Tennessee, and the community I found there was phenomenal. Spencer welcomed me immediately and runs a very equitable gym where his focus moves constantly between the hobbyists, newcomers, and competitors. Historically, I'm a grappler, but the gym community encouraged me to step into the Dutch Kickboxing courses as well. The difference in skill between myself and the other fighters was of no concern because the gym maintains a culture of growth, and so in the 1.5 years I was at Glory I almost never saw someone take advantage of size or skill to lay into a sparring partner. It's truly a great spot, and I'm hungry to visit again for some training here soon.
I've trained in many Jiu-jitsu gyms around the world, and the one thing I can say that is truly awesome is that Spencer really puts the time in to help you become better. Most people take your money and give you an hour of their time, and that's it you're done. But here at Glory, if you want to learn and have the will and passion to learn such an amazing martial art, the price is nothing with all the attention they give you. This is my home, and Sylva is very fortunate to have such talent to help people become more healthy and confident with who they are and what they want to learn. Glory has it all Jiu-jitsu, Boxing, Muay Thai, MMA, Submission Grappling, and like I said before, one of the best coaches you're ever going to find and that is priceless.
Great gym! High level coaching and friendly students. Spencer is a well rounded, high level, knowledgeable fighter and coach. Could not rate this gym more highly.
Thank you for your support!
Spencer Fisher is awesome! I remember the time I met him in Thailand and we got abducted by aliens and they took us to the planet Nibiru and we partied with the Nephilim. Good times! Tong Po Muay Thai?
The instructor was incredibly successful in the UFC, and is welcoming to students of all skill levels. In addition to him, I met a number of members with 10+ years of experience who were welcoming and eager to help me accomplish my goals. It doesn't matter if your background is in wrestling, boxing, BJJ, or tennis, this gym will make you better at any martial art, you'll make genuine friends and improve your quality of life.
