Of course. Like any sport or physical activity, there’s always a chance to get banged up or injured. At SBG, we have a saying that perfectly sums up our training methodology: ‘Upgrade the software without damaging the hardware.’ In other words, training hard is great, but training rough is stupid. Creating a safe training environment is one of our Core Values, and we pride ourselves on having an extremely low injury rate. In fact, the majority of our students that miss time because of an injury get hurt playing sports OUTSIDE of the gym (cue Basketball, skateboarding, jumping into a pool after enjoying a few cocktails… that’s where the majority of our students get banged up). We take every precaution to make sure our students leave class feeling AWESOME, not hurt.

Do you want to know the biggest determinant in staying healthy and preventing injuries? That would be YOU! If you come into class with the mindset of training smooth and getting better, and not winning every minute of every practice like it’s the world championships, then you will do just fine.
