I’ve been with Dark Horse Gym for 12+ years. It’s like a second family, extremely welcoming to any new person that wants to train or just get in shape. A great team of fighters that are knowledgeable without having an ego when you ask them for help or assistance.
Amazing gym, definitely my favorite gym i’ve ever trained at. The coaches are really great and really care about you and your improvement. The coaches are also very knowledgeable and have lots of experience. The gym has a really big sense of a family making training more enjoyable. Definitely somewhere to go if you want to get in shape! Would also recommend this gym if you want to get into competing.
I First attended Darkhorse at the age of 15, and pretty soon everytime I felt lost in life I found myself right back The old school ambiance, people and kids of all ages, the brotherhood, and feeling of a safe space only added to the excitement and confidence of knowing I’ve found a place where I could learn proper fighting technique to grow/defend/and enjoy myself with. I highly recommend this gym for people of all ages, but mainly for men who are looking for direction in their life.
Real genuine gym, doesn’t just want your money. Extremely welcoming to fighters of all levels whether you’re a beginner or pro. True family atmosphere in there, would 1000% recommend Coach Dave is the best. They offer a wide variety of classes as well whether it’s cardio, striking, grappling, or knife fighting.
