Very welcoming gym, you are a part of the team as soon as you walk through the door. No one higher or below you and all treated equal. Great experienced coaches. All staff made me feel very welcome. If you are ever in Portland, drop in and get amongst it. Thank you for having me all the way from New Zealand.

Northwest Fighting Arts is AWESOME!! All the trainers are fantastic! I started 6 months ago and have lost 20 pounds but inherited a lot of energy and strength along with confidence and a determination to continue with healthy eating, exercising , and having tons of fun! Check it out! 😃

A good friend recommended Tai Chi classes at Northwest Fighting Arts and I started going to class and practicing regularly about 4 weeks ago. Best decision I have made in a long while. The community is friendly and I feel at home there. I super appreciate the opportunity to learn and I am already noticing positive effects in my overall health and wellbeing.
