From the reviews
Spartan Fitness has been home to my family for over 6 years. They are phenomenal people that truly care about their clients. All of the coaches are very knowledgeable in everything they teach. I love to take the strength and conditioning classes.
I have trained with Chris and the awesome coaches at Spartan for 4-5 years now. It was great when I started and keeps getting better. Very positive, friendly atmosphere for all skill levels and all walks of life. Kids classes are fantastic. What other gym offers classes at 5:30 in the morning?
I joined almost a year ago and it’s been the best experience I’ve ever had at a gym. It’s a workout that is unmatched by any previous regime or gym I’ve tried before. Nothing puts me in a better state of mind or makes me feel as good as I do after a class at spartan fitness.
I have been at Spartan right at a year. I have done several sports over the years but had never tried any type of martial arts or striking class. I was about as lost as you can be starting out but the coaches were great. After about 3 months of being at the gym I signed 3 of my kids up (ranging from ages 8-17).
Your first BJJ class at Spartan Fitness MMA Birmingham Alabama
Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
