Overall look and feel: The look and feel of a fight gym, and people were working here… I saw a good deal of instruction going on from several people. Didn’t seem like a normal class going on during my visit, but more like open mat/ individual instruction time, with several people working different aspects of their craft.
Fight team calling this home: Cold War. Michelle Blalock, Todd Meredith, Garret and Shannon Culpepper, Becky Anderson, Carolyn Thompson, Kristy Meredith
Current members say: The members I spoke with had the same overall opinion…A friendly training center where everybody took to helping everybody else. Serious training with flexible training schedules.
The Breakdown: Fusboxe looked to be a fight gym dedicated to helping its students pick up techniques that work. With plenty of either one on one, or one to small group ratio training, it didn’t look to be the bulk, cookie cutter training system. Not one of the biggest gyms, but still plenty of room and gear to work with. Flexible schedules and positive attitudes from the students I spoke with make this a gym worth checking out.
