Fortify Fight Club

"Coach Isaiah is A very knowledgeable martial artist. He gears his classes towards self-defense practical application and competition as well as fitness. They have all kinds of class options including BJJ & MMA. If you want to learn how to defend yourself and get a great work out at the same time in a friendly helpful environment fortify is the place to go!"

"I walked in to try a free women’s boxing class on Saturday morning. I walked in with absolutely no boxing experience or knowledge and feeling kind of nervous. I was immediately greeted and put at ease by the class instructor, who found gloves and wrapped my hands for me. The class was challenging but doable for even a newbie like me thanks to my capable instructor. It’s a great workout and useful for any person who wants to learn more about self defense and get a great workout with gloves and a bag! I highly recommend this gym and this class to anyone interested in boxing as a workout or as a dedicated sport."

"Fortify Fight Club is the best gym experience I have ever had. I had a big trip planned that I knew I wasn't in shape enough for and needed something that could really push me. I was also curious about trying boxing as I had no prior experience. The pad workout class is perfect for beginners learning how to even throw a punch, practicing combos, and if you put in the effort, it can be a very intense work out. After my first class I knew this was exactly what I was looking for. I have been going to this gym for over a year now. Following a diet plan and going to this gym regularly I managed to lose over 50lbs in my first 6 months and was absolutely ready for what was to come with my trip. This gym has a fantastic community, and all of the coaches are super friendly, great at teaching their classes, and give great motivation."

"Fortify Fight Club is the best gym in Arizona!!! I walked into the gym for the first time in January, a little hesitant as I had never stepped foot in a combat sports gym before. Upon entering, I was greeted by a great environment and even better people. Coach Isaiah is extremely kind and helpful, and will always work on pushing you physically as well as improving your techniques! There has not been one bad experience I can associate with Fortify, every single coach is very nice and welcoming, as well as all of the participants. The environment that has been built at Fortify is one that is accepting of everybody, from boxers looking to compete, families taking self defense classes, exploring mma, getting your child active, etc. there is truly something for each and every person, and you will walk out the gym with two guarantees: you feeling great about yourself, and that feeling of needing to return because the experience is so enriching. Without Fortify, I would have not taken the next step in my boxing journey. Great gym!!!!"

"I started training BJJ at Fortify about a month ago after a 2.5 year layoff. As a blue belt it’s common and even joked about in the BJJ community. However, everyone’s journey is unique. For me at 51 and having a demanding career it’s sometimes difficult to deal with the aches and pains and balancing training with the demands of work and family. It’s also intimidating to go back and restart training after a long break. I chose Fortify because of Matt Barnett who I used to train with when we were both white belts. Matt was a gifted athlete and BJJ practitioner and quickly moved up the ranks and recently earned his Blackbelt. Not only is Matt talented physically but he’s talented with interpersonal skills. I’ve never met someone more charismatic and selfless. Matt is a humble leader and makes everything about his students and teammates. I’ve been at BJJ off and on for nearly five years and I’ve never felt more comfortable in the gym and confident that I will be able to continue the journey through the remaining belts while at the same time being technically sound and a successful competitor. I highly encourage newcomers and anyone like me looking to get back in the gym to give Fortify a try."
