  • Why what you eat matters on the mat.

    Let’s be honest—training martial arts is no joke. Whether you're rolling in jiu jitsu, working combos in kickboxing, or pushing through MMA rounds, your body is doing a lot . And the truth is, no amount of hard training can outrun a consistently crappy diet. But this isn't about eating “perfect” all the time or giving up every food you love. It’s about realizing that what you put in your body directly affects what you can get out of your training. More Energy, Less Drag Ever tried hitting pads or going live in BJJ after skipping meals or downing fast food? It’s a rough ride. Eating whole foods—like lean proteins, healthy fats, fruits, and ....

    Why Kids Should Train Martial Arts: More Than Just Punches and Chokes!

    When kids think about training in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), they sometimes imagine throwing wild punches and rolling around like tiny ninjas in training. While that does sound pretty cool, the benefits of these disciplines go way beyond just learning to fight. MMA and BJJ provide kids with an incredible foundation for life, teaching them discipline, confidence, respect, and some seriously awesome problem-solving skills. Let’s break down why every kid should give these martial arts a try! 1. Confidence That Lasts a Lifetime Imagine your child walking into a room with their head held high, knowing they can handle challenges—both on and off the mat. ....

    Hannah Guy Causes Upset at Bellator259 against Loreda

    Hannah Guy shocked the WORLD at Bellator 259 on May 21st against Valerie Loreda! (ranked #8) Starting off early in the 1st round, Hannah took a clean left hook knocking her to her butt. Hannah recovered almost immediately after being knocked from her feet, and rallied HARD. She took Valerie down multiple times and landed some vicious ground and pound round after round. After the second round, Valerie's corner gave her some tough love on using basics instead of her flashy tkd spinning technqiues. She didn't listen and gassed out. Despite the odds (literally) against her (+400 underdog), she showed her grit and implemented the game plan given by her coaches. Hannah won a strong ....

Relentless Mixed Martial Arts Google five star review - Hannah G.

Hannah G.

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.
