Amazing. No other word for me to describe it. You are being trained by actual professionals and a world championship boxer. And the gym is always full. Very good full body workouts.
I've been training at switch for a year now and absolutely love it. The coaches are knowledgeable and experienced, the members are friendly and welcoming, and it’s a great environment for both beginners and more advanced fighters. With many classes available like boxing, Muay Thai, Jiu Jitsu, and strength and conditioning at multiple times during the day the membership is a steal. Highly recommend this gym!
Coach Toby is the most technical, patient, and personal coach I have ever had. Such an honor to learn under him, and I always look forward to the next BJJ, Judo, or MMA class.
Switch is the best gym I’ve trained at! I’ve moved around a lot and when I landed in San Diego I knew I wanted a fighting gym to train at. Switch has been so welcoming and friendly. I’ve learned so much from Coach Daniel and Coach Marvin and I look forward to class everyday!
I trained at Switch Fitness for several months, and unfortunately my experience was very negative. About Toby (coach): Toby knows his stuff and was a great fighter, but as a coach he often yelled at me, put me down, and told me I “suck.” I believe he thought being mean would push me harder, but instead it took a toll on my confidence and mental health. About Rob (owner/manager): Rob was nice the first months, But once I paid the $1200 yearly membership, everything changed. He became sarcastic, dismissive, and treated me with constant attitude, like they didn’t even want me there. It felt like they “locked me in” and then started treating me poorly. The bigger issue: I only used about 3 months of the membership before speaking up about how I was being treated. Instead of taking responsibility, they turned it around on me saying I was “pushy” about training and competing and they even turned it weird saying that I “force hugs” when the coach himself would say “come here” and offer me a hug which I don’t care, I think it’s normal. But after that conversation, I was told Toby “won’t coach me anymore.” That means I can’t access the service I paid for: Grappling + Striking. The right thing would be for Switch Fitness to pay me back my partial refund for the unused months. Instead, I’m left with nothing. As a mom of 3, $1200 was a huge investment, and being taken advantage of like this is unfair and unprofessional. Contrast with other gyms: Since leaving, I’ve joined TEAMS and Steel Fitness. Both are farther from my home, but the difference is night and day. I feel welcome, supported, and respected. I’ve also met other former Switch members at Steel (4 other people) with similar stories of being heavily mistreated, but I was the unlucky one who paid upfront for a year. Final warning: Please think twice before committing to a yearly membership here. My experience is that once you’re locked in, the treatment changes. Protect yourself and your mental health. Don’t make the mistake I did. I still hope they’ll do the right thing and pay me and my family back.
