Jake Reeves

Jake Reeves became one of the youngest MMA gym owners when he took over Relentless in 2010, at only 20 years old. Starting off as just needing somewhere to train for his own mma career, soon turned into a passion for teaching others. He has spent years developing skills in Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and sambo that are MMA specific and over the years has become an expert at bringing it all together to form a true MMA style. While he is known for his ability to train fighters, it is his fun demeanor, never say quit attitude, and old school disciplinarian style of coaching makes him a great coach for kids and adults. Since taking over as Head Coach Relentless has enjoyed countless child and adult grappling champions and has swelled the kids and adult classes to huge numbers.

This gym has changed my life significantly since joining 2 years ago. I could name so many ways Relentless has changed me for the better. Physically I am in the best shape I have been ever in my entire life. I view health in a whole new way. I have made the best relationships with everyone here- they are pretty much a second family to me. Emotionally I have gotten tougher. I have grown to be so much more confident in myself and learned what hard work and dedication really looks like. The coaches here will really push you to your limit and help you individually understand the concepts and techniques to be better, because they GENUINELY care about you and want you to succeed. Because of the way Jiu Jitsu is taught here as well as being taught how to strike (which has been a struggle let me tell you), I am now more than capable of defending myself in a self defense situation. That's something I could not say two years ago. Relentless is ABSOLUTELY one of the best mma/jiu Jitsu/striking gyms in the area & I HIGHLY recommend you check them out for yourself. It will change your life!

This Gym is freaking awesome. They help you set and surpass your goals. Myself, I’ve always loved the Muay Thai fighting style, but never took any classes. I’ve done some brazilian jui-jitsu and mma because I’m a Lt. at a prison and a Sgt in the army. They really take the time to get to know their clients. Each session pushes me little by little, to help me take my cardio game to the next level. When there is a need for officer assistance in the prison, you have to haul butt to get there and probably fight. 30 seconds fighting with a person after running is a long time. This gym give you a few more options to add to your arsonal.

I was looking for a gym that offered mixed martial arts classes for beginners and happened upon relentless!! I am so glad I did. They offer everything I was looking for. A friendly atmosphere and great staff are among the best thing about the gym. At 37 I stepped way out of my comfort zone by starting these classes, but I am never made to feel like I can’t do it and the staff is so encouraging and they make me want to give my all the whole time I’m there: I would recommend Relentless to anyone young or old.
