Unit 2 Fitness

Fantastic experience: Been going here for years. Great gym, great instructors. Not your cookie cutter LA Fitness type experience, this is a place to push yourself, get sweaty, and get fit.

Fantastic experience: I will give it to you straight. Unit 2 is not cheap nor is it pretty. But you know what? When fitness is your priority those things should not matter. And Unit 2 is pretty awesome for that. You are not paying to walk on the treadmill for 3 hours. Nor are you paying for tons of mirrors to take selfies. Nor are you paying for folks to flex around the machines to talk about how hard they train. You are paying to work out with top notch trainers who train you to be as fit as they are. You are paying to work out with trainers who have a mixed martial arts mentality. That is NOT a LA fitness mentality. Its a way of life and they are serious. They help you, but they don't pat you on the shoulder and accept your excuses. And the gym is not pretty. Its not fancy machines or lockers rooms with saunas. Its a gym with a boxing ring, with heavy weights, barbells, kettlebells and a kickboxing ring with heavy bags. The back has mats for the MMA stuff which I dont venture into because I am not closely qualified for that stuff. There is kickboxing and crossfit for us normal folks. They offer: Kickboxing Crossfit Jiu-Jitsu Muay Thai Yea the serious stuff. And other serious stuff. I recommend Unit 2 for some serious training. They focus on things like form, nutrition and getting healthy as a way of life. I remember once a trainer said to me regardless of what you do in the gym, if you cannot move your own body weight in a life saving situation, you are in trouble. I been hooked ever since. Oh and they have kids classes too. No, not a kids rooms, kids classes. Yesterday they were punching it out in the ring while I was kicking a bag. I can appreciate kids getting some real activity in their lives.

Fantastic experience: I've been at Unit 2 since the end of 2011, and I've been happy with the place. I came here for the jiu-jitsu. If you don't know, Roberto Traven is the BJJ instructor here. His team is a competition team that does quite well in tournaments. Many of Traven's BJJ students win or place in the major tournaments. I saw that someone else left a bad review saying they were sent to collections when they tried to suspend their membership. I've heard that a lot of gyms are notorious for not letting their members cancel or freeze their memberships, but Unit 2 has always accommodated me when I wanted to freeze my membership.

Fantastic experience: Unit 2 Fitness is absolutely the best gym in Atlanta. From the Crossfit program to the kickboxing program to the Roberto Traven Bazilian jiu jitsu program, Unit 2 provides elite-level training that is accessible by everyone. I can't say enough good things about the entire staff at Unit 2.

Fantastic experience: Amazing instructors & fantastic program! Takes your fitness to a whole other level!

Fantastic experience: Unit 2 is a fun place to get kickboxing classes. I’m older and enjoy them. Music is good, too! The front desk staff and instructors are nice, patient, and energetic!

Fantastic experience: Great coaches, nice people, clean environment, good practice spirit

Fantastic experience: Unit 2 is a great, family friendly gym with instructors that really care about their students! Can’t recommend this place enough!

Fantastic experience: Excellent place with excellent people and excellent instructors. If you want to REALLY get into shape and/or learn self-defense techniques that actually work, join this gym.

Fantastic experience: Best place to work out!!! The instructors are as cool as the day is long, taking the time to show the proper form in order to reach your goals. I absolutely love this place because it is exactly the therapy I need!!!

Fantastic experience: Great gym...always a good workout! Keeps my stress level in check! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great Fitness Center even though it small classes it feels like one-on-one training. I have noticed a big difference in my energy and my fitness level. I joined a little over a year ago and I will say after every class it still feels like the first time.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member since March of this year. I've thoroughly enjoyed my experience with Unit 2. I just got back into kickboxing and Ryne's classes are an amazing workout in a fun and supportive environment. Go!

Fantastic experience: Unit 2 Fitness is awesome! I am currently taking the kickboxing classes and I love it! Not only do I get an excellent workout in a short amount of time, I am having so much fun. So glad I discovered Unit 2 Fitness.

Fantastic experience: My daughter started taking jiujitsu classes at Unit 2 around 8-9 years ago. She's now 16, and just reached the highest youth rank in youth jiujitsu, green belt. Along the way, she's won many (we lost count) tournaments, placed 2nd at Junior Nationals twice, and grown physically, emotionally, and socially - thanks in large part to jiujitsu. She started taking kickboxing classes this year, and also started helping out as an assistant teacher in the kid's BJJ program. To say she loves Unit 2 is an understatement: she's there five days a week, 2-3 hours a day. Ryne has been an important positive influence in her life, and Jeff has been a rock-solid leader at Unit 2 for the entire time we've been there. If anyone knows about Unit 2, we do: we've seen their consistency day after day, month after month, year after year. This is an authentic gym, through and through.

Fantastic experience: The Fitness Kickboxing classes are a great workout, and there are plenty of classes at different times to choose from. You can go whenever it fits your schedule.

Fantastic experience: I love the Unit 2 family! Friendly and warm staff, and the kickboxing classes are awesome workouts and great stress relief. I always feel empowered and re-set when I leave. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I have been training at Unit 2 Fitness for nearly 6 years now, and I can't recommend this place enough. Small business level attention-to-detail and customer service, with expert level instruction. Most importantly a focus on a family-friendly environment and member relationships, rather than the churn & burn model that a lot of new gyms offer. Come try a class and see for yourself!

Fantastic experience: Instructors are great, space is clean and welcoming - love this place!

Fantastic experience: I've had a great experience with a Unit 2 in the kickboxing classes. The instructors are the best and look for everyone no matter what your experience is. After each class I feel like a new man. My daughter also take Jujitsu and they love it. It teaches them defense skills and respect for one another.

Fantastic experience: Jeff and Ryne are excellent! Give this place a try, you won't regret it!

Fantastic experience: This is absolutely the BEST gym! The boxing and jujitsu classes are amazing! Not only do you get a FABULOUS workout, but you will meet a ton of GREAT people. Jeff, the owner, hosts a lot of community events for the members, such as cook outs and pot lucks-with fun for the whole family (including the kids)! Ryan works alongside Jeff, and is nothing short of AWESOME! They are both great teachers (encouraging, patient, and helpful) and make you feel right at home! The gym itself is huge and it consists of a matted boxing area, a matted jujitsu area, and even a small gym with weights and work out equipment. If you are looking for some great workouts, making some new friends, or even an extra-curricular activity for yourself and/or your kids after school, I would definitely check out this place! 10/10!

Fantastic experience: Amazing instruction, great people, and a fantastic atmosphere. Unit 2 is the place to train if you want to start jiu-jitsu in a friendly environment that will give you lifelong skills or get your BJJ to the next level! The kids’ program is well-structured and available for all ages. The head coach is a super detailed world-class black belt competitor (Army vet) that knows very well what is talking about.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful academy with very friendly, personable staff. Excellent instruction and overall atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: It’s been a wonderful experience going to Unit 2. It’s very family friendly and accepting of everyone. I learn a lot in my classes and feel right at home each day.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love my work outs here. They’re a great stress reliever and I felt stronger and more in shape quickly. The atmosphere is laid back, nonjudgmental, and super motivational. Highly recommend it.

Fantastic experience: Was a member for a year until I moved out of the area. Amazing and helpful staff feels very family like. I had a kickboxing membership and highly recommend if you’re interested. The classes were structured great! Rynne is an amazing instructor and always had great energy in class. Classes are definitely beginner friendly soo don’t hesitate try them out! You won’t regret it all!

Fantastic experience: I just started but have been really happy here so far. The space is large, lots of windows and sunlight, and probably the cleanest gym I’ve ever visited. I have never done kickboxing before and walking into a new gym can feel intimidating but I have felt really welcomed and comfortable here. The classes are challenging but amazing instructor Ryne makes everything easy to follow and is right there if you need extra help. I love it and am so glad I signed up!

Fantastic experience: I went to this gym when it was close to my house and the gym is now located in Decatur. The facilities have improved drastically and my son enjoyed his first ju jitsu lesson today. Coached are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Would recommend this dojo for anyone who wants their children to learn martial arts and all the very important life skills that go with it.

Fantastic experience: I came looking to try Jiu Jitsu for personal fitness and was surprised at how much I fell in love with it. Fortunately Unit 2 has top class teachers who know what they are teaching. Professor Jeff Boudreaux is the real deal! Beyond that they offer various martial arts, kickboxing..etc. They offer free classes so you can experience it risk free and find out what area you would like to pursue.

Fantastic experience: I first joined 8 years ago and was pretty consistent going a few times a week until work and then relocation got in the way. Excited they are now in Decatur. The space is GREAT! Airy, bright and modern (not that I had issues with the old place). I love how much I get out of just one kickboxing class, full body workout and mental therapy. I also like seeing the same staff from when I first joined. It was nice how even after a prolonged absence I was remembered. Looking forward to many more years!

Fantastic experience: I did CrossFit at Unit2Fitness for five years when they were located at the Midtown location. I absolutely loved the coaching, community, and personal attention as I started my fitness journey. I was someone who couldn't do a pull up when I started and can now do muscle ups. The results were amazing. Jeff is an extremely passionate and dedicated fitness professional and always willing to work with clients to help them achieve their goals. They are no longer continuing with CrossFit in the new location but wish them all the best!

Fantastic experience: I have been training at Unit2Fitness since 2016 with its striking program (Muay Thai, kickboxing). I have learned a lot since then and greatly improved my martial art technique, and physique. It has been a great experience and healthy routine for me to come to Unit2 several times a week. Jeff and Ryne are great people, passionate and professional. Jeff has been paying great attention to the experience at the gym and constantly striving to let people make the most of the gym. Especially during the COVID, he has implemented several social-distancing and cleaning routines that helps keeping the gym safe. Ryne has awesome personalities and his kickboxing classes are super enjoyable and rewarding. It is going to be even better with the gym relocating to Decatur, which has natural sunlight and bigger space. I wound recommend it to my friends and in fact I have already done so with two of my friends.

Fantastic experience: The instruction I have received so far, exceeds all expectations! Knowledgeable and passionate instructors make learning Muay Thai fun! It's intense, but that's what I wanted and needed ! The support staff is courteous and professional ! The environment and facilities are conducive to reaching your physical fitness goals ! Thumbs up to Unit 2 Fitness!

Fantastic experience: I walked in here about 2.5 years ago on a whim and it changed my life. I really can't say enough good things about this place, the instructor, and the jiu jitsu community here. Jiu jitsu was a catalyst for being healthier in my life; mentally, physically, and spiritually. The coach, Jeffery Boudreaux, is a good man (sometimes hard to find in a profession predicated on violence), and dare I say... a friend. What can this jiu jitsu gym offer that no other gym can? Top notch instruction from a legit, tournament-winning black belt, who teaches every class. A great training environment for people of all body types and skill levels, and a small but enthusiastic and successful competition team if that is what you want to do. And most importantly, training partners that are warm and welcoming and will treat you like family.

Fantastic experience: Unit 2 fitness was my first experience trying kickboxing and they made me love it! Everything about this gym, from the atmosphere to the entire staff/trainers is professional but friendly. They make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in the door while also training you to know exactly what you need to do to get the results you want! I am so bummed I moved, otherwise they would be my go to gym forever. Highly highly recommend checking them out!

Fantastic experience: Started training BJJ at the end of January and instantly became addicted. The atmosphere is unlike any other fitness gym I’ve been apart of in the best way possible. Coach Ryne helped me knock out my BJJ 101 classes easily by using his gift of being able to explain techniques to beginners in a way that is extremely understandable. I highly advise anyone who’s on the fence about learning BJJ or just wanting to get in shape to come in and try the free class they offer. It could change your life like it’s changed mine.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality , Value I have been with Unit 2 Fitness for 6 years, I followed them from their previous location to their new location in Decatur. The staff is always friendly and communicative and the classes are a great workout, there's definitely a sense of community and getting stronger together!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality , Value I have always been intimidated by gyms but I don't feel that way at Unit 2 Fitness. Everyone is encouraging, welcoming and pushes me to want to do my best. I truly appreciate the environment and the workout is AWESOME!!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a unit 2 member for over a year now and it was one of the best things that happened to me in 2020. Kickboxing helped transformed my body and confidence and I was in the best shape I’ve ever been. If you want personalized attention and good quality equipment this is the place for you. Jeff and Ryan are the best trainers out there and will do wonders with your body and confidence. Rahul

Fantastic experience: Definitely should check this place out if you want to give your fitness journey an extra boost

Fantastic experience: I love my gym!!! Class today was extraordinarily awesome. The owner, Jeff, is a great coach. He pushes us to keep going and give more into our workout. Ryne and Craig are awesome coaches too! There's plenty of class times to chose from for kickboxing and it's pretty clean for a gym. Overall, I'd recommend at least trying it for yourself...you'll probably love it too!!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Rewarding and uplifting training BJJ at Unit 2. The coaches and community are welcoming, they have a good time while training hard and being attentive. Respect and love to the BJJ community here.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Outstanding owner, instructors and staff. Given the situation we are all in, they have gone, and continue to go above and beyond to provide not only an environment in which you feel safe, but also an outstanding workout.

Fantastic experience: Unit 2 is a fitness community of kind, passionate, unique individuals. You will be greeted with openness and consideration when you show up for their kickboxing, cross-fit, or BJJ classes. The staff maintains cleanliness and safety procedures during these times which allows for a healthy experience. I cannot recommend this place enough, for they have supported me and all their other members beyond any other gym I’ve been to. They cultivate an environment where you can ask for help, discuss your goals, and celebrate your accomplishments. Try their free week but expect to stay because it truly is a lovely place.

Fantastic experience: The community here is seriously incredible. The staff is down to earth and always wants to help you improve. The BJJ classes are some of the most fulfilling experiences I've ever had and the instructors are fantastic. They know when to give you detailed instruction and when stay back and let you figure out your own way. This is a place to train, make friends and gain new skills. If you like no-BS approaches to training and genuinely friendly people this is the place for you. I have nothing but respect for the folks I've met here. Go learn BJJ!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of Unit 2 for at least six years. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a real MMA gym staffed with great, knowledgeable instructors. I’ve trained in the cardio kickboxing classes and BJJ classes. Both are challenging but rewarding.

Fantastic experience: I go to kickboxing class at Unit 2. The location is walkable from Tech, and the instructors are always really encouraging and kind. They learn your name and everyone at the gym is super friendly. It's always a pleasure going!

Fantastic experience: Unit2 is a gym that is small, but mighty. I've been a member since 2016 and have taken kickboxing but mainly sick to lifting weights and Crossfit. The coaches and trainers here are top notch - I'm over 40 and find that they are able to make sure I am training hard but not going to injure myself, the coaches are very good at scaling and teaching good form - weather for beginners or masters athletes and everyone in between. I wanted to mention cancelations as it seems some reviewers had issues- My daughter did have a membership and I needed to cancel it. The cancelation process was really easy and not a hassle whatsoever. I just had to email the gym with a 30 day notice and they stopped the billing at the end of the 30 days. Unit2 is a great gym for anyone who wants to get fit in a no-frills atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! The people that work there are always nice and very helpful. I do kickboxing and jiu jitsu and all the instructors are awesome. I was a little intimidated getting started but I was welcomed with open arms. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: You must try out this gym if you are serious about training! The instructors here are amazing and second to none. I train here for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and I work hard every time I step on the mat! Whether it is regular class or tournament training I am never disappointed and my skill level increases every time I train here! This gym has everything you need, I recommend this to everyone who wants to push themselves and get better.
