    SBG Buford Reviews

    There's more than one good reason why SBG is consistently the highest rated Gym in Metro Atlanta.

    • They make you feel like you belong!

      Awesome gym. The people and the coaches are all amazing and great to train with. I've never been athletic and I've always been out of shape, but I have never felt like I didn't belong in the Muay Thai classes with everyone else.

    • We drive over an hour & it's worth every mile!

      My daughter and I have been at this gym for almost a year. We drive over an hour to get there and it's worth every mile. The coaches and staff are amazingly friendly and supportive. If I could drag this gym closer to home we would be there more than three times a week!

    • Coach Jim is awesome!

      My daughter and I recently enrolled in one on one Muay Thai classes and love it! Everyone is very helpful and friendly and our coach, Jim, is awesome. I would definitely recommend to anyone that’s interested in mixed martial arts.

    • They truly care about the kids!

      My son currently goes here at the recommendation of my brother who also goes here. The coaches are awesome with kids. My son is 5 and has a blast (no pun intended) here. They truly care about the kids and it clearly shows. 5 stars!

    • Amazing staff!

      The staff are amazing here! The way they handle the kids is nothing less than 1st class! Very engaged with several coaches present to actually produce accountability and correct execution of skill sets. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    • SBG is my second home!

      I love this place!! It's become like my second home! Great people, great coaches and great programming make it easy to want to walk through the doors everyday! I've seen amazing progress in not only myself but many many others at the gym! I can't say enough about SBG!!

    • Their motto is not a gimmick!

      I found out really quickly that the "One Tribe One Vibe" moto is not a gimmick. It's their real way of life. I am a near 40 husband and father of four and having people who really want to see you achieve your goals makes it easy to show up consistently. This gym is amazing and I love it there!

    • Amazing People!

      I absolutely love this place!! My son started training here when he was twelve and his confidence has gone through the roof! The coaches are so good with all of the kids and my son has made great friends as well. They are amazing people!!
