Thank you Ajarn Saohin Srisuk. I am honored to train with the legend and the Srisuk Muay Thai community
I have been training at vital for quite a few years now and I couldn’t be happier with this gym. Everyone is always welcoming and willing to help, no matter your belt or experience. The coaches put the time in to make sure that everyone is progressing regardless if you are a competitor or a hobbyist. I have had a great experience with the teammates who are consistently willing to put in the hard work and challenge you in different ways every class. But most importantly they make you feel like you belong as part of the vital family, the culture and vibe at Vital are always positive and supportive, I am proud to call Vital my home.
I’ve been training at Vital for about 2 years now. Awesome people, different experience levels, and always good training. The guys are safe training partners which is something that is very important to me. Come train with us!
I've trained at Vital for the past 3 and half years doing just BJJ, and it has been one of the best experiences of my life, by far. The first time I walked in back in 2019, I asked the gym owner how long he recommends I sign up for. Now, in most instances, I think there's a lot of gym owners who would say "you should sign up for 3 months, or 6! You need to commit if you're going to be serious about this!" None of that happened. Instead, he told me "sign up for our 3 day trial. You *really* should see if this fits into your schedule before you make that commitment". And thank God he said that... At that time, my wife and I were not in a position for me to be going to the gym often enough to get my moneys' worth out of it. He didn't try to sell me on it, and the owner didn't try to lock me into some shady pricing to get me to stay. When my life was in a more stable place a year later in 2020, I came right back. Kyle, the gym owner, has really created an awesome gym culture that is focused on being welcoming towards everyone, and training hard. There hasn't been anyone I've trained with that I wouldn't hang out with outside of the gym, and we often do. We all clean the mats after every practice and maintain a clean environment. I didn't grow up doing martial arts, so I wasn't sure what to expect. This is not a "YES SENSEI!!!" type gym, you just call him "coach" or just "Kyle". It's hard to describe how chill of an atmosphere everyone creates here. I don't think I would stick around long if the overall attitude was hyper-serious all the time. The sport is hard enough that you get humbled and disciplined just by training. It's a fantastic group of people to train with, and an even better group of friends to hang out with. Bladden, one of the black belt instructors, has really hammered out the details of getting a robust "fundamentals of Jiu Jitsu" program going, with a fleshed out curriculum that rotates throughout the year that will get every beginner up to speed on what they need to know to be competitive, or defend themselves. I'm a pretty small dude at 5'3", so safety is always a priority of mine, and it's one that this gym helps maintain in their training environment. The talk of Jiu Jitsu enabling you to defeat "bigger, stronger, more aggressive opponents" is absolutely true. I'd tell anyone, regardless of age or sex to come in and at least see what the atmosphere of the gym is like.
