Bryan is a true veteran of the MMA game. A caring and passionate coach, his philosophy of teaching martial arts inspires students to become independent critical thinkers and lifelong learners. As he once told me, "The gym is like a lighthouse, while it guides you, there are many ways to reach the destination." Whether you're a beginner, hobbyist, or seasoned fighter, The Chute is an excellent place to learn, grow, and challenge yourself.

The Chute is the place to go for intense training and great coaching. Bryan has trained my daughter the last 7 years since she was 11. There's nobody better to be tough when necessary, soft when it's called for, and the knowledge is insurmountable. Not only is he an awesome coach, he has his gym fams back no matter what and is always willing to help both in and out of the gym. His wife is awesome too😁

Coach Bryan is hands down the best coach! He’s become more of an older brother by always caring for his kids/adults in and out the gym. His attention to detail is second to none! If you want to learn how to really defend yourself in real life situations, The Chute is where you need to be. You will not get a more passionate coach out there other then Coach Bryan himself. Just look at the champions he has created, his work speaks for himself!
