About the Business

The Pit SLC is a health institution located at 1171 Richards Street, Salt Lake City, Utah, United States. We offer classes for all skill levels, from beginners to competition level, starting at age 4. Our classes include American Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, and Sparring.
Our martial arts program focuses on making young men and women safe, confident, and healthy. We incorporate striking, grappling, strength, and fitness training to create well-rounded martial artists. Our goal is to train our students to never be bullies and never be bullied.
Our head instructor is a lifetime martial artist with black belts in American Jiu Jitsu and Hawaiian Kempo, as well as experience in Division 1 wrestling, UFC, and PFL fighting. We offer real fighting techniques that work in self-defense and competition.
Join us for our "The Coach and the Casual" podcast hosted by former UFC fighter Ramsey Nijem and entrepreneur Kyle Deever, as they explore the world of mixed martial arts. We empower our community to reach their full potential through traditional martial arts and high-level fitness in a modern, fun setting. Come and train with us at The Pit SLC!
Reviews
"The pit is awesome. Ramsey is really good at making everyone feel welcomed and doesn’t matter how experienced you are. Always brings the energy and makes the classes fun. I’d recommend this place to anyone at any level."
"Love this gym. Ramsey cultivates a safe environment for women. Has a beautiful mat space and just got a cage (tried to upload a video but guess google only lets photos). High level athletes. Wrestling. Reminds me of my gym back home. Downtown and close to plenty of cafes post training"
"The Pit is AWESOME. If you are looking to push yourself as a fighter or just to get in better shape, you’ve found the place. Ramsey and the coaches are so knowledgeable and skilled in all aspects of MMA and will push you to be the best you can be, so come train with the best. The atmosphere is super friendly and inviting and the energy at the gym will have you hooked!"
"If you're looking to train with the best, The Pit is the place to be. Whether you're a pro or a complete beginner, doesn't matter. Don't be discouraged either. Ramsey and the coaching staff are some of the kindest, fun, and inviting people you will ever meet. You'll learn high level skills, get pushed physically like never before, and make great friends. Can't recommend The Pit enough."
"One of the best martial arts gyms in the state! Ramsey brings the energy and passion every single class. He creates an amazing team atmosphere and culture where every skill level feels welcome. I started my martial arts journey three years ago and even have my son in the youth classes who loves it just as much as I do. I would recommend to anyone. Whether you are looking to become a professional or a dad like myself who wanted to learn something new - this is a great place to train!"
