April

I love Evolution MMA because it feels like family. I was at my heaviest a few years ago and I dove right into the cardio kickboxing classes with no experience and everyone was so nice. I was never really an athletic person and I had no real muscle definition, and exercise was always a chore I never really wanted to make time for. I’ve been going for a year and a few months now and I’ve seen major improvements in my strength, stamina, and overall mood, and I’ve made a ton of new friends here! The coaches are understanding and friendly and always try to help you do your best. My weight is finally under control and I feel stronger every day. Going to the gym is no longer a chore, it actually feels like something is off if I happen to miss a day.
