Coach Cheeks is very personal and involve in the training. His attention to detail is the reason why my kids enjoy coming to class. Of all the other classes we've attended, by far PRESS Forward has been the most rewarding and impressive to help my kids develop into the skills they have obtained.
Coach Cheeks is down to earth and passionate about what he does. He implements rules that help with respect, dignity, responsibility, dependability...etc. which are right in line with how I'm raising my kids. The price point per month is fantastic for what you are getting. I was paying hundreds more before I found him! I have a 14 year old and a 8 year old and they both love going! They are eager to learn the rules and the combos and show coach how they've improved. My daughter also loves hanging with his daughters after class so that's a huge plus for me because she has friends while my sons class is going on. My son also has friends he has met here that help him when he needs it. I also take classes myself (kickboxing and Jiu Jitsu now) and I personally love how he teaches clearly and precisely. I like how he's not so tough on you when you mess up so you don't feel stupid at all. Even the people in my class are awesome and hard working. Overall, if you're looking for a place to get an amazing workout in, learn skills on fighting and takedowns, meet some cool friends, and become part of an amazing family and culture, come join Press Forward!!!
If I could give more stars, I would! My sons been with Pressforward for almost a year now, in June. I started noticing his progression and love for mma/boxing within a few months of starting. Coach cheeks is an amazing role model. He is truly passionate about his craft and most importantly the kids. The teaching modalities reflect life lessons. Signing up my son was one of the best decision I’ve made!
Coach Cheeks and PRESS Forward gym have been a huge blessing for our son. Coach Cheeks is a strong and powerful role model for kids of every age. His love and dedication to the kids is evident from day one. He takes the time to coach and mentor each child as they need it. I am so glad we found him and this gym.
Thanks for the review. I love all of my students especially the ones who need “extra” attention because I was that kid that needed that. Helping troubled youth is definitely my passion and I’m a huge believer in it takes a community to raise a child.
Over the last couple years, myself and 3 of my daughters (8, 15, and 18) have all begun training with Mr Cheeks. My wife and I have been super impressed with how well he manages different age groups, personality types, skill levels, and training disciplines. We've recommended PRESS Forward to several of our friends and family, and everyone seems to be equally surprised at how quickly their children feel integrated into the 'team' and how well their kids respond to the coaching style. I've trained at 8+ schools over the years, and can honestly say the atmosphere, camaraderie, and training at PRESS Forward are a perfect combination of everything you'd want for yourself or your children.
Thanks for the review. And we absolutely love your family and all the girls. Hopefully little man will be in there too once he’s older. Also looking forward to putting Black Belts on y’all.
