Fantastic experience: Great gym, period. Good for all age ranges. They offer classes from small child to adult. Instructors are teir. If classes are not your thing it is a loaded gym to come and work out. Good smattering of amenities on top of the classes and gym experience are available. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Thanks Strong Style for helping me build my body and competitive mind. I’ve been a member since 2018 and for the longest I struggled to find my place until I started BJJ and have been doing so now for almost 6 years. If you are seeking for the fortitude that mma and endurance athletes need,this place will provide the tools and the environment to excel and become the best version one can achieve. Thanks to all staff members and owners for always being there to assist.

Ishmael Dowdy 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Starting at Strong Style back in June sparked my interest to get back in the martial arts. It took me 21 years to get it back. I enjoy learning from my coaches in Jiu Jitsu. After 2 months of training I received my first stripe. I've been a member for 7 months and I'm enjoying it. The people there are very helpful and caring and that's what I like about this gym. Onward to continue to be the best that I can be. Also a little soon, my wife and my children will do what I do too! I also strive to go through the ranks! Never Surrender, Never Say Die!

Strong Style MMA and Training Center

Ishmael, we appreciate you and thank you for the review. This is what Strong Style is about. Making connections, growing with each other, and building a community. We’re proud of you and happy to be able to share these moments with you!

Patrick Fetzer 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Came to Strong Style to join their jiu-jitsu program as a fresh blue belt. 6 months later and I am extremely glad I did. The instructors are all not only extremely knowledgeable in their crafts, but the WAY they teach is easily digestible which makes retaining the information that much easier. Classes are a well-balanced mix of instruction and live rolling, whether it be full rounds or positionals. I can confidently say this was the best decision I have made for the development of my grappling and if you're looking for some of the best jiu-jitsu in Ohio, this is it.

Strong Style MMA and Training Center

Hey Patrick, we are happy to hear you are having a great experience at Strong Style. We hope to have you for many years to come. Appreciate you!!!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym. The building it’s in now, was the old Scandinavian Fitness. I had my first gym pass back in 1993. This is a place for people that are serious about training. Whether it’s martial arts or weightlifting. If you’re not that person, just stay at your local rec centers.

Fantastic experience: I trained at strongstyle for a little over a year and absolutely loved my time there. I moved to Texas and that's the only reason I'm not a member till this day. The coaches ,trainers, members and staff treat you like family. Everyone there wants to get better it is is winning culture. Shout out to Jaime, Alexa, Chase, Meghan, Brian, and Doug for making not just a better fighter but human.

Thank you so much Issa! We are happy you had a great experience with us!

Ryan O'Connor 1 year ago

Negative experience: Awful experience with Jiu Jitsu class here today… ive been training for about a year prior to this and been in 6 other gyms. Strong style was definitely my worst experience with jiu jitsu ive had. I dont know if the instructors were having a bad day but they were being very insulting, dismissive and unprofessional towards students (with the exception of coach Jamie). The gym culture seemed terrible… During rolling, i was paired up randomly with someone that the instructor told me was “new to the jiu jitsu”. After 2 seconds of rolling I realized that this was far from the truth. Not only did he bully me around physically (which is ok and expected) but he started insulting me and taunting me from a dominant position while smothering my nose and mouth which is pretty un-called for. After the roll he informed me that he was a black belt and an instructor at the school. Will definitely not be coming back here and would suggest finding a smaller more relaxed environment to train in. Edit- Received a call from Mike, one of the owners, and had a great, sincere conversation with him. Seems like the leadership takes improvement very seriously and cares a lot about member experience.

Strong Style MMA and Training Center

Ryan, this is the ownership responding.. There is no excuse for what you experienced and we want to apologize if that’s what you experienced today. This is an opportunity for us, as a team to get better. Jiu-Jitsu at our gym is supposed to give you a great experience where you can learn and grow as an athlete. . If there’s an opportunity for us to give you a better experience, we hope you will give us another chance. If not, we respect that and either way we will meet as a team on this specific situation to make sure it doesn’t happen again.

John Wess 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of many gyms across US. Strongstyle is the best place to develop as a fighter in Cleveland area. I drive from East Side just to be a part of the best MMA gym in the area. Gym staff has the best customer service skills I have seen. Gym members include Seals, Marines, Army Rangers, and Police Officers. Everyone is very respectful and supportive. I want to thank the management for creating such an amazing environment for over 30 years.

Todd Thompson 1 year ago

Negative experience: If you want to be babysat and ridiculed for cooling down before your max set and sending a text, come to this gym. If you only want “real lifters” in the power lifting room, it’d behoove you to have squat racks and deadlift platforms where the “normies” are allowed. I don’t deal with pompous attitudes, so I was happy to cancel my family membership today and will gladly head back to the community rec center. ✌️

Strong Style MMA and Training Center

Hey Todd,
We understand from how you see it, and apologize for how the situation happened. However, our facility is 36,000 sq. ft. and that small, 1200 sq. ft. space is the one room we have dedicated to Westside Barbell and Louie Simmons. It is also the one room and only room in our entire facility where we ask that you don't use your phone excessively and focus on training. We even have a sign before you walk in the room that you respect our cell phone policy. It is not our fault if you didn't read it, which is why we politely told you about the policy. Also, we have several areas in the gym you can deadlift, and also 6 squat racks upstairs that you can use for training as well. We have a few thousand members, of all levels that train at Strong Style that respect the policy. If you want to train at a gym where training is secondary and being on your phone the entire workout is the primary, then there are plenty of gyms out there that would love your money. Best of luck in your training journey Todd.

Fantastic experience: Strongstyle is an excellent gym for training various fighting techniques, such as, boxing, kickboxing, jiu jitsu, and wrestling. The trainers are all knowledgeable in technique and are trained fighters themselves. This location has a full gym with dumbbells up to 110lbs, and free weights for exercises like bench, deadlift, squats. They have a lot of machines for training any individual muscle.

john doe 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Seriously the greatest gym in all of Ohio and probably the world. The most kind and welcoming people i have ever met came outta this gym. The staff will make you feel at home if you train here, and only the best of the best will be teaching you. The boxing, kickboxing, wrestling and jiu jitsu classes are all beginner friendly but that does not mean you won’t be learning advanced techniques, all the classes have amazing instructors who have experience fighting and actually being in the heat of a match. Whether it be a Ufc fighter teaching you or a Division 1 wrestler teaching you or maybe a barenuckle boxer but regardless only the top quilified people will be teaching most of the classes and you will learn their most effective techniques. The nice about this gym is that everyone here is genuine, The instructors watch your form and if you are lacking in certain aspects they will help correct you and make sure you understand what is being taught. The facility is super clean with amazing janitorial staff who clean the mats frequently and tend to the rest of the gym all day. The weightlifting gym included has some of the best machines and equipment on the market and there are top qualified coaches for strength and conditioning. Whatever it is you come here whether it be to become a professional fighter or you are a cop who needs to get better at wrestling or maybe you want to learn how to defend yourself or you just come in and get a good workout in then this is certainly the place for you! without this gym i wouldn’t be the man i am today and I am very greatful to be close to a gym of this caliber. what’s nice is they offer a free starter session so go in there and try it out and if you don’t like it you don’t have to come back but i guarantee you will love it.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been in and out of Strong Style for about 10 years maybe even more! I went from a regular member wanting to become a fighter, to an employee which helped me build my work ethic and skills resulting in me getting a great career, to then being a member once again on the fight team. I cannot stress enough, how life changing this gym is. The amount of support given by all the members and all of the staff is incredible. Being part of this gym has molded me into the person I am today and I recommend ANYONE of ANY age and body type to give this gym a chance to do what it did for me. Transform into the best version of yourself. Thank you Strong Style for pushing me to be the best that I can be.

Matthew Boggs 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I had an incredible experience at StrongStyle, and I can't recommend it highly enough! From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed by a friendly and knowledgeable staff who made me feel right at home. The facilities are top-notch, clean, and well-maintained, with plenty of space for training. (Can’t wait for SS 2.0) The instructors are phenomenal, offering personalized attention and insightful feedback that helped me improve my techniques significantly. Emil’s passion for Jiu-Jitsu is evident in every class, and they foster a supportive and encouraging environment that caters to all skill levels. The sense of community here is unparalleled. Fellow members are respectful, helpful, and always willing to share tips and roll with you, making each session enjoyable and productive. Whether you're a beginner or an advanced practitioner, StrongStyle is the perfect place to train, learn, and grow in BJJ. Overall, my experience at StrongStyle has been nothing short of amazing.

Ryan Oleksiak 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I started at Strongstyle to build strength, stamina, a foundation of self defense/ fighting and most importantly confidence. I found all that and then some. Everyone was very welcoming to a complete beginner in every step of my journey. They have been patient but pushed me to be greater. Ever instructor and teammate I have worked with has been nothing but supportive. I would recommend anyone come out make yourself the person you want to be with people who have your back the whole way.

Fantastic experience: I've finally found my fitness home at Strong Style MMA gym! From the moment I walked in, I knew this place was special. First off, huge shoutout to Riley Burrows, my trainer. Riley's expertise is unparalleled, and his passion for what he does shines through in every session. I've already seen tremendous progress thanks to his guidance, and I can't wait to see where we go from here! Tyler, who helped me sign up, deserves a mention too. He was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making the enrollment process smooth and hassle-free. It's rare to find someone so helpful without being pushy, but Tyler nailed it! The facility itself is top-notch. It's spacious, well-equipped, and impeccably maintained. No matter what kind of workout you're into, they've got you covered. And the variety of classes offered is incredible - from MMA to powerlifting, there's something for everyone! But what really sets Strong Style apart is the atmosphere. There's this infectious energy that hits you as soon as you walk in the door. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and you can tell they genuinely care about your fitness journey. It's not just a gym - it's a community. Strong Style MMA gym is more than just a place to work out - it's a place to thrive. I couldn't be happier with my decision to train here. If you're looking for a gym that feels like home, look no further. Strong Style is where it's at!

I am always treated with respect, they know my name, the owner will workout with the members, talk to us and is very down to earth. The management team,The Sales Reps and The Personal Trainers all talk to you and are very welcoming as well! Nobody not even the members that come here are judgmental and will help anytime it’s needed. Love this gym!

John Wagner 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Man. I cannot say enough good things about strong style. I got my membership about five months ago and it’s been nothing but great. VALUE. The elite plan is $100 a month. That allows you to go to any single class at any time unlimited times. It is easy to break even on this cost in just a couple of days of classes compared to gyms that charge per class. They offer so many classes at so many times it’s mind-boggling, impressive, and conforming to all schedules The staff here is amazing. They do not cheap out on personnel, and the place is abundant with trainers willing and able to help. Always friendly, welcoming and farewelling everyone at the door. Always willing to help during class and will even spare a couple of minutes of one on one with you after class if they have the time. They have a fantastic merchandise shop. With everything you would ever need for a class as well as branded merchandise that actually looks good, and they rotate with new items consistently. It’s all inclusive and welcoming by every means. I’ve seen and trained with people of every experience level, age, and background It’s more than a credited, and has a truly exemplary reputation. They have so many pro fighters coming out of this gym going all the way to the top of the fighting world. Do yourself a favor and sign up for a free class then a membership if you haven’t already

Mike Quintus 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best gym I've ever been a member at! Friendly and knowledgeable staff, great equipment, & plenty of classes if you want them. You can't help but to feel like a Champion training amongst Champions with the Westside Barbell affiliation as well as the Champion fighters that call Strong Style home.

Hanna Kassis 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: World class entity and people. The entire staff is friendly, mindful. Props to Marcus for creating such an amazing culture filled with champions - literally and spiritually. It's also a very, very welcoming group of trainers, and they welcome beginners. If you've ever contemplated learning boxing/mma, there is no better choice.

Elijah S. 2 years ago

Negative experience: This school has gotten too big and has lost its touch. The classes are packed, so the level of instruction has gotten worse. Also, the mats and bathrooms are not well cleaned and are sometimes filthy. The atmosphere is really chaotic with tons of people coming and going. There's a severe lack of organization that is the management's fault. The name alone will not be able to carry this place for much longer. Edit: Owner, thank you for the acknowledgement of some of the shortcomings. A suggestion that I would make to help bring organize the chaos slightly would be to not allow the parents to sit and wait for their kids to be done with class. They take up a lot of unecessary space and crowd the entrances to the lockers/bathrooms. The entrance and the hallway to the lockers needs to be cleared.

Strong Style MMA and Training Center

Thank you for the review. We could disagree but some of what you are saying is a result of growing pains. We do the best we can with who we have and the space that we are operating in.

Fantastic experience: No gym compares to Strongstyle. It has equipment that you won’t find at any other gym. The staff is very chill and professional 100% of the time. The coaches are very passionate and their excitement for martial arts radiates on everyone. I’ve been a member for 1-2 years and they’ve never given me issues with account freezes or anything billingwise. 11/10 would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Strongstyle is not comparable to any other fighting gym in Ohio. I have never found an environment that matches my energy until I started training here. People are really high energy, and always willing to show you the ropes. Its an incredible gym and im really happy to be apart of that. This place breeds winning fighters and i aspire to be one! Within 1 week one my boxing has improved soo much, im more powerful and efficient using the primary muscle groups of my body. I have nothing but great things to say about my experience here.

Negative experience: Be careful once you give them your credit card information the person you gave it to is no longer the person you need to cancel they say email them to cancel after 5 months of emails I had to cancel an order a replacement cc to get them to stop . Good gym but very unethical business model.

Strong Style MMA and Training Center

James, there is a process to cancelling, like any other adult thing you signup for. A member representative enrolls you, and our administrative manager cancels your membership. It is not a hard concept. A 30 day cancellation notice is required via email so your contact to cancel is time stamped. If we make an error, we always refund. If we made an error on your membership, we will be happy to take a look at it.

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym you will ever be a part of. Every program offered is very well thought out and taught by people who genuinely care about you and know what they are doing. Every single employee contributes to this team. It is hilarious there is less than a 5 star on this page anywhere.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, awesome staff and the absolute best members! I've been a member since around 2015/2016 and truly love training there. Strongstyle provides an equally uplifting & challenging environment where one can meet their goals; whatever they may be! The owner, coaches, and staff are all knowledgeable, skilled & have a team focused mindset. If you're ready to put in the work they'll support you wholeheartedly. It's been amazing to see the progress the gym has made over the years and comes as no surprise that it's time to grow into a bigger and better facility. Check it out!!!

Fantastic experience: The hardest thing I've ever done was leave this gym when I moved further away but in the end I just couldn't stay away. I now happily drive 35 mins there and 35 mins back. This will always be a second home to me. The staff remembers you by name, And are always willing to help you out.

Fantastic experience: Best facility around. I love the slogan, “ where the weak, but willing are welcome and the talented, but lazy are not.” I have been going here for over a year now and the culture is spectacular. The women get RESPECT. The coaches, staff and members care about your goals and want to see you get better. At this point it is my favorite place to socialize and train because they might be friendly but they definitely training savages.

Jeremy Ely 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great Gym and SOLID Group of Coaches, Staff, and even other members. The very first time I walked into the facility I was treated like I belonged there. Strong Style produces CHAMPIONS but they never treat the "little guy/gal" like they are any less important than their premiere fighters. The Team as a whole is totally inclusive and even though I was the new guy I was treated like I belonged. Don't believe the bad hype these other reviewers are spilling. Most have either Never even been to Strong Style let alone in any gym at all. regardless of your skill level or goals I HIGHLY recommend Strong Style Training Center. They won't let you down.

Fantastic experience: When I first read reviews for this gym, I heard it was full of meat heads just looking to beat people up. I was intimidated but I thought I’d give it a shot. 6 years later, I’m still a member at this gym. It’s a nice place, and can’t beat the price

Fantastic experience: As a single lung transplant recipient, I become anxious even thinking about physical activity. I tend to cough regularly because my native lung is fibrotic and restricts my overall lung function. As a former college athlete, I always felt boxers and wrestlers were in the best physical shape. Therefore, after receiving my lung transplant, one of my goals was to participate in a boxing program to improve my quality of life. After thorough research, I felt Strong Style was an excellent option to pursue this goal. So, with apprehension and anxiousness, I met with Andrew. Andrews's background in the medical arena helped ease my fears, and I knew he would be accommodating in my pursuit to receive boxing training. Unfortunately, being a lung transplant recipient is not my only medical ailment, as I have many medical conditions that affect my well-being daily. Andrew felt Sergio would be the trainer for me. Today was my 5th training day with Sergio. Sergio has taken all my health comorbidities into account. I couldn't be more happier with Sergio, he is an excellent instructor and even better human. I couldn't be more grateful for having Sergio as a trainer. Thankfully, he has accommodated his teachings with me as everything I do in the gym will take more time. Sergio tolerates my asking for breaks and listening to me cough. His step by step approach to teaching the fundamentals of boxing to me only increases my desire to one day be proficient in the techniques he is teaching me. I highly recommend Strong Style to all persons who desire to improve themselves physically, especially those like me who may be dealing with health issues impacting their quality of life.

Fantastic experience: Best gym around, staff is incredible, gym is amazing classes are phenomenal, really well rounded individuals love this gym and everything about it and all who helped to make it what it is today, the only gripe I have is I wish they’d acknowledge and persuade people to throw their used car batteries in the Pacific Ocean

Fantastic experience: Easily the greatest MMA gym in Ohio, and one of the best in the country. Also offers other excellent training in other disciplines. Their history speaks for itself not just in victories but the character of the combatants they put out.

Fantastic experience: I trained here in a number of day, night, and evening programs for over 2 years. Excellent fitness center that met my needs for local WOD style competitions, 10k runs, self defense skills, group fitness, and jiu jitsu training. I am a hobbyist and like dropping in to try new things. I love that the pro team coaches, it’s a very friendly peer training environment. I have never been injured by other participants, which is strictly enforced and makes me feel safe trying martial arts as an adult woman. I transferred to another gym for work and class balance that fits my training better, with no hard feelings, and continue to have friendly interactions with old team members at local events. Great place for beginners of all ages for all around fitness and mma training in a low pressure environment, with advanced and pro level training as skill and intensity increase.

Fantastic experience: Strong Style Training Center is a great high quality trini game facility with the best instructors in each of the classes they offer. This place is hard-core and it serious but it puts out some of the best athletes around. I participated in the strength and conditioning classes and no matter where you are in your fitness journey they will meet you where you are and help you reach your goals.
